InSite's 31 December 2021 audit of Blackspur gives 1P 15.6, 2P 20.4 and 3P 24.4 million boe, with PDP 5.1. These are slightly below the 30 June 2021 figures (1P 16.1, 2P 21.4, 3P 25.7). Reserves held roughly steady after 1.1 million boe produced.
Calima shares began trading on the US OTCQB market on 24 March 2022 under RLTOF, as a secondary quotation to the ASX listing. No shares were issued, and the company says it adds no material compliance burden. Aims to reach North American investors.
Replacement of the same 4 March update: February production above 4,200 boe/d, Gemini 5 and 6 tied into the new pipeline, Gemini 7 and Pisces 3 due shortly. The guidance table is cut to the $80 and $90 WTI cases, and the company says higher-price guidance will follow.
Pisces 3 (100% owned) at Brooks finished fracture stimulation, with all 33 stages placing sand. After a 7-day shut-in it should flow to temporary facilities by mid-March, then connect to the 02-29 battery by 31 March 2022.
February production averaged above 4,200 boe/d (73% oil), just under January's 4,300 exit. Gemini 5 and 6 are tied into the new Brooks pipeline, Gemini 7 and Pisces 3 follow within weeks. H1 2022 guidance stays 4,000-5,000 boe/d; higher-oil-price guidance is promised.

Calima raised A$20m through a placement of 100 million new shares at A$0.20, a 13% discount to the last close. Proceeds first reduce the drawn credit facility, then fund Q1 well completions, waterflood, North Thorsby completion and Thorsby battery expansion.
January 2022 investor presentation for the webinar. It restates the 4,300 boe/d January exit, H1 2022 target of 4,000-5,000 boe/d, 3P reserves of 25.7 mmboe and 2C Montney resource, with no new information.
Production exited January at 4,300 boe/d despite cold weather and Covid issues, with 4 wells still behind pipe waiting to be tied in before the end of the first quarter. Seven wells had been drilled in 2022, and one of the two already on production was exceeding 500 boe/d (80% oil).
Notice that Finance Director Mark Freeman will present at the ShareCafe Small Cap webinar on 4 February 2022, with the presentation attached. It repeats known drilling plans and the 4,300 boe/d January exit rate.
Calima signed a deal with Pivotal Energy Partners to finance and build a Brooks pipeline linking the 02-29 battery to the Gemini 5-7 and Pisces 3 wells. Cost is about C$4.3m (cap C$5m), repaid at ~C$76,000 a month over up to 7 years; completion due late March 2022.
December quarter production averaged 3,202 boe/d, with sales of A$19.8m and adjusted EBITDA of A$9.4m. Net debt rose to A$27.8m and cash was A$3.4m. H1 2022 targets are 4,000-5,000 boe/d and C$28-33m EBITDA on a C$19m capital program.
Gemini 6 and 7 finished drilling in 6 days each and the rig was released, completing the Brooks Gemini program on budget. Pisces 2 and 1 came on stream 26-27 January with oil in flowback. Leo 4 reached 4,088m depth; completion is planned late Q2 or early Q3.
Calima spudded Leo #4 on 20 January 2022, a 50% owned, company-operated step-out Sparky well at North Thorsby, a new area with no booked reserves. Budget is C$3.6m gross (C$1.8m net). Frac and tie-in planned late Q2 or Q3 2022; production expected Q3 2022.
Calima added two conventional Sunburst horizontal wells, Gemini 6 and 7, at Brooks. Gemini 6 spudded on 15 January. Each costs about C$1.0m with expected IP90 of about 140 bbl/d, and the wells are to be tied in during Q1 2022. Funded from cash flow and the C$27.0m credit facility.
Gemini 5, a vertical Sunburst test at Brooks, was drilled to about 1,059m and logs show a Sunburst interval with sufficient reservoir quality. Production rates are unknown pending a test. The company says it may add 1-6 new horizontal locations. A possible Mannville gas zone also needs more work.
Pisces 3 finished drilling in 7 days to about 2,600m, on budget so far. Fracturing is planned for early February. Pisces 1 and 2 are tied in and in shut-in, with flow testing expected in late January.
Calima began its 2022 campaign: Pisces 3, a third Glauconitic well, spudded on 2 January, and Pisces 1 and 2 are being fracture stimulated. Flow testing of the first two is expected in late January. Hedging of 50% of net production continues.
Production passed 3,800 boe/d in late December but the 4,500 boe/d year-end target was missed. Leo 3 was down from 23 December with sand in the wellbore, and peak rates have slipped to February 2022. Leo 1 and 2 produce over 400 and 420 boe/d.
Pisces 2 finished drilling to 3,953m in 8 days, under budgeted time and cost, completing the two-well Brooks program. Leo wells are meeting or exceeding expectations but had pump workovers, and peak rates are now expected by end of January 2022.
The first Pisces Glauconitic well at Brooks was drilled in 6 days to 2,610m, with reservoir quality and oil shows as expected. The second well has spudded. Fracturing is planned for early January, with production from mid-February 2022.
Calima has started a two-well Glauconitic drilling program at Brooks, costing C$5m in total. Wells are expected to have 200-400 boe/d IP90 rates, with production from mid-February 2022. It will be funded from cash flow and the National Bank facility, with hedging planned.
All three Leo wells at Thorsby are tied in and flowing back. Leo 3 is producing over 250 boe/d, ahead of expectations; Leo 1 and 2 are still cleaning up. IP90 guidance stays 270-460 boe/d per well and the 4,500 boe/d year-end target is said to be on track.
Notice of the 3 November webinar on the September quarterly report, with an updated November investor presentation attached. It repeats known results and plans and adds no new information.
The Leo three-well fracture program was completed on time and on budget, with all programmed sand placed. The wells were awaiting pumping equipment and tie-in, expected by mid-November, with full potential expected from mid-December 2021 to mid-February 2022.
September quarter production averaged 3,290 boe/d, with sales of A$17.8m and adjusted EBITDA of A$8.4m. Net debt is A$22.1m. Leo wells are now targeted on stream in mid-November. The company keeps its 4,500 boe/d exit target and C$35m 2022 capital plan.
Calima expects to distribute up to 30% of free cash flow to shareholders from 2022. The preliminary 2022 plan is 13 wells, C$35m capex and 5,500 boe/d average production. Free cash flow ranges C$29-52m at US$70-90 WTI. This is an intention, not a declared dividend.
Calima issued 380,553 shares to marketing and corporate consultants in place of cash, with the standard notice allowing them to be resold. A minor administrative issue.
