Production results were below expectations as extremely cold weather affected wells. InPlay was actively drilling in the first quarter. Several wells were completed at the end of the quarter and should help out next quarter’s production. The resumption of drilling in a prolific region this fall should lead to higher production in 2025.

Pricing remains an issue as the discount to WTI oil prices remains large, but the discount shows signs of improving. The discount between realized prices and WTI oil prices (as expressed in Canadian dollars) remains wide. New oil and gas pipelines in western Canada should lower the discount. Oil and gas futures already indicate as much.
