Leadership and Capital Perspectives on Value Creation in Legacy Heavy Oil Assets
The landscape for junior Canadian E&P's remains capital-constrained, yet immense value lies dormant within the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin’s legacy heavy oil assets. While traditional financing avenues have narrowed, a combination of disciplined technical focus and a decade of technological advancements offers a high-return pathway for revitalizing suspended production. In this presentation, Shubham Garg will share a leadership perspective on navigating this complex environment, outlining strategies for securing investor capital and support, building an aligned Board and C-suite, and executing a rigorous growth program, backed by well-by-well optimization and reactivation. Attendees will leave with a roadmap for unlocking the massive potential of conventional CHOPS and waterflood opportunities through operational excellence and efficient capital management.
