Anadarko: More oil, natural gas in Northern Colorado than thought

North Colorado Business Report -- Anadarko Petroleum Corp. has increased the estimate of how much oil and natural-gas is recoverable in the Wattenberg field to a new range of 1 billion to 1.5 billion barrels of oil-equivalent.

The company, a key oil and gas producer in Weld County, previously estimated that its reserves in Northern Colorado oil and gas field amounted to between 500 million and 1.5 billion barrels of oil-equivalent.

The company's horizontal drilling program in Northern Colorado's Niobrara and Codell formations continues to deliver "exceptional performance," the company said this week in an earnings report. The company posted a $121 million third-quarter profit, or 24 cents per share, vs. a more than $3 billion loss, or $6.12 a share, in last third quarter.

MAC48 Champion Author Dallas Posts:1,546 Points:765,095 Joined:Dec 2006	Message Posted: Nov 1, 2012 9:08:53 PM Ignore MAC48 Report Abuse This is good news for Anadarko Petroleum share holders which a lot of the commenters to Gas Buddy very well could be through their ownership in mutual funds or their 401ks ownership of mutual funds or their pension fund’s ownership of mutual funds or all three. Yes Virginia, even the little people are share holders in most of the US corporations through their direct or indirect ownership through mutual funds. This is the kind of news that gives the environmental activist ulcers since they know that their dream of 100% “clean” energy will never be realized until all of the fossil fuels have been exhausted for all practical economic purposes.
