Шаблон:Use Canadian English Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox company Athabasca Oil Corporation is a Canadian energy company with a focused strategy on the development of thermal and light oil assets. Situated in Alberta's Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin, the company has amassed a significant land base of extensive, high quality resources. Athabasca's common shares trade on the TSX under the symbol "ATH".

Operations

Шаблон:Update section As of December 2009, Athabasca Oil Corporation owns leases and permits on Шаблон:Convert in the Athabasca oil sands, but does not operate any commercial developments.[1] As of June 2010, the company's reserves included an estimated Шаблон:Convert of contingent resource (potentially recoverable oil) and Шаблон:Convert of probable reserves.[2] AOC sold 60% of two assets, included above, to PetroChina in 2009.

AOC intends to produce oil through the steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) method rather than through open-pit mining as older oil sands mines have.[3] SAGD projects require less surface area than open-pit, but must consume additional energy for steam generation.[3]

Ownership

The company's highly anticipated[4] initial public offering (IPO) in early 2010 was the largest Canadian IPO since that of Manulife Financial in 1999, and North America's largest in 2010 (as of March 31).[5] The sale, selling a 19% stake at Шаблон:Currency per share, valued the company at around Шаблон:Currency.[5]

The IPO's initial success was attributed in part to AOSC's 2009 asset sale to PetroChina, divesting 60% working interest in its Mackay River and Dover projects for Шаблон:Currency.[4][6][7]

Following the IPO, AOC's share price dropped 33% in the first month of trading, making it Canada's worst-performing IPO since 2007.[8]

In 2017, Athabasca purchased the entirety of Statoil's oil sands assets as the Norwegian giant exited the oil sands, including a producing plant, an undeveloped project, and some midstream assets.[9] AOC sold the midstream assets to Enbridge in 2018.[10]

Duvernay Formation

AOC's share price rose dramatically following the announcement of a $US1.2 billion Duvernay Formation acreage joint venture between Encana and PetroChina. Athabasca Oil Corporation holds the largest publicly disclosed Duvernay Formation acreage rights (640,000 acres).[11][notes 1]
