21.04.2014  |  CNW
CALGARY, April 21, 2014 /CNW/ - Connacher Oil and Gas Limited (TSX: CLL) ("Connacher" or the "Company") provides the following operational update for the first quarter 2014 ("Q1 2014").


Production and Operations

Based on field estimates, Connacher's Great Divide production for Q1 2014 averaged 13,400 bbl/d. Production was 18 per cent higher than the prior quarter (Q4 2013 - 11,400 bbl/d).

On March 7, 2014 the Company experienced a natural gas supply pipeline leak at Algar. The Algar plant was taken off line for approximately four days on March 9 to complete the repair and was placed back on-line on March 12, 2014. Production and operations were quickly restored.

Drilling was completed on six of the nine planned infill wells as of mid-April. The remaining three infill wells will be drilled during the second quarter. These wells will then be completed, tied into the facilities, steamed for approximately 30 days and are expected to begin impacting production in the fourth quarter.


Marketing

In Q1 2014, the volume of bitumen moved to customers outside of Alberta averaged approximately 7,872 bbl/d (59 per cent of total bitumen sales) compared to approximately 7,426 bbl/d (65 per cent of total bitumen sales) in Q4 2013. The balance of the bitumen sales were to intra-Alberta markets.
