"The Company has selected the New Mexico Oil Prospect based on its potential for immediate production of oil from relatively shallow wells. Two giant oil fields lie within the target trend and have produced over 2.2 billion barrels of oil. The Company's leased block currently sits at 7,540 acres with a pending transaction that would see the company holding a total of 15,407 acres."
Overview
Morgan Creek Energy Corp. is a natural resource exploration company engaged in the acquisition and development of strategic oil and natural gas properties. Morgan Creek Energy is actively engaged in the generation and development of oil and gas prospects in the more prolific producing regions of the southern-continental United States of Texas and New Mexico.
Investment Highlights
Profile
Morgan Creek Energy has been created and staffed to locate, acquire and develop low-risk oil and gas prospects in energy-rich regions worldwide. By developing high quality prospects and employing skilled contract consultants using the industry’s leading technology, Morgan Creek Energy seeks to control project costs and success rates. The Company is dedicated to becoming the industry’s ‘lowest cost’ producer.
The Company currently has an oil prospect in New Mexico, a natural gas structure in Texas and option to acquire a 70% working interest in Bonanza's 85% working interest (a 59.50% net working interest) in the Prospect, up to October 28, 2010. With the Company's current focus being oil and natural gas rich areas in a geographically stable country such as the U.S., it is able to focus more on their core business and less on governmental policies and sometimes complicated dealings with international governments, especially in developing countries.
The Company has selected the New Mexico Oil Prospect based on its potential for immediate production of oil from relatively shallow wells. Two giant oil fields lie within the target trend and have produced over 2.2 billion barrels of oil. The Company's leased block currently sits at 7,540 acres with a pending transaction that would see the company holding a total of 15,407 acres.
MCKE has selected the Natural Gas structure in Texas based on its potential to contain a very large gas structure. An initial well drilled in 2007 confirms managements’ belief that the previously untapped trend contains gas shows. The imbricated Ouachita thrust fold belt marks a margin boundary between the East Texas Basin and the Gulf Coast Basin. This basin margin occurs where the two primary US continental plates collided and rolled over each other. Intense fracturing has developed secondary porosity within the thrust sheets, which overlay the foreland Pennsylvanian source beds, creating significant oil and gas traps. Morgan Creek’s interest in the Emmons Prospect focuses on the ‘stacked’ structural traps just north of Waco. The initial target location has been selected. While the Company prepares for the drilling phase, the land team is moving forward to complete leasing activities on multiple strategic properties in the target area. The well permitting process will immediately follow these activities.. Bonanza Resources has completed a multi-component interpretive 3-D survey on approximately 8,500 acres to image the Morrow A and B sands. The 3-D interpretive survey has identified 40 drill ready target locations. Using this data as a basis, the Company plans to proceed with exploration drilling on the North Fork 3-D prospect this year. Company President Peter Wilson stated, "This agreement and program are important to Morgan Creek Energy because they help set a new direction for the Company going forward. I expect this to be one of several key projects that give Morgan Creek the ability to add solid value in this energy cycle."
The Company has been busy since June of this year announcing these and other announcements. As a result, investors have taken notice of the Company and its stock is up from around the $0.20 level in June to the current price of around $0.60.
The world has reached a tipping point with regards to worldwide oil resources, and most analysts agree that the world has reached the stage of peak oil. The concept of peak oil is easily misunderstood It's not that we're out of oil -- there's still a trillion barrels of oil under the Earth's crust -- it's just that we've developed all the easy-to-access and easy-to-refine oil deposits --and these are now declining.
Jeff Rubin, the former chief economist for CIBC World Markets, predicts that the price of oil will rise to US$225 a barrel by 2012. For readers who dismiss Rubin, think about this:We are in the midst of the biggest recession since the Great Depression and oil has already risen above US$80 a barrel. In 2003, few pundits would have thought US$80 oil was possible. (And Rubin's past predictions have proven deadly accurate: In 2006, he predicted oil would hit US$150 a barrel in 2008.) To meet rising oil demand, companies are now oil drilling on the ocean floor, miles under the sea, in the Arctic in hostile conditions, and in the tar sands, where it takes a barrel of oil equivalent in the form of natural gas to refine three barrels of oil. The effect of all these trends -- smaller deposits, harder-to-access locations and harder-to-refine oil -- means that the cost to extract oil from new sources is rising. The rate of extraction from the new deposits is slower than the declining rate of production from the traditional oil fields.. The law of supply and demand states that when the demand for a good increases faster than the supply, prices will rise.(Source: Canada.com)
While short-term oil prices may flounder a bit due to the recent run-up of oil from March lows, the long term trends are still bullish. But regardless of the actual price of crude oil, if one of the Company's properties can find significant oil or natural gas, the outcome will be very positive for the Company and all their shareholders alike..
Looking at the Company's technicals, the chart seems to be developing a bullish pennant pattern. We can get all into why we think this is a pennant forming, but a picture is worth a thousand words, so take a look at this link which describes the pennant pattern and compare it with MCKE's chart pattern. Notice any striking similarities?
This pattern is quite accurate, and is considered a continuation pattern. Pennant and flag patterns are what pattern chartists call half-mast patterns. That is, they form midway in a trend and you can project the distance already travelled from the start of the trend from the pattern to estimate the end of the trend. A pennant pattern fails in its continuation prediction only 19% of the time in an uptrend..
In MCKE's case, the most recent rally occurred in the middle of November at roughly $0.35 and topped off at about $0.75. According to the pennant pattern, that would make the next stretch of this rally the potential to run at least another $0.20 to $0.30 cents, bringing the stock to about $0.80 to $0.90 cents. Again, this is all assuming that the end of the pennant formation occurs shortly and it isn't one of the odd chances where the pennant pattern does not pan out. In order to confirm the pennant formation, a day with really strong volume that breaks the pennant formation is needed.
Support seems to be strong around the early $0.60 and then again around $0.50. A stop loss is suggested around those levels depending on your risk appetite. As always, these are only our interpretations of MCKE's chart, we strive to give you all the information we can and always encourage our investors to do their own due diligence and consult with a financial advisor before making any trading decisions.
The need for oil will continue to be one of the most sought after resources for decades to come, and the Companies that can seek the undiscovered oil & natural gas and extract it to the surface will also be in great need. With MCKE having several key properties all across the U.S., especially one that lies within a target trend that has produced over 2.2 billion barrels of oil, chances of success are dramatically increased. With the recent run-up in prices in the stock as well as the Company's strategically located properties, we encourage our investors to take a closer look into Morgan Creek Energy Corp. (OTCBB:MCKE).
Projectss
Oil Prospect - New Mexico
Management has selected this project based on its potential for immediate production of oil from relatively shallow wells. Two giant oil fields lie within the target trend and have produced over 2.2 billion barrels of oil. The San Andres, a carbonate sequence of Permian Age, is one of the most prolific oil producing horizons of North America. There are three major porosity cycles developed within the San Andres. Each cycle represents a separate transgressive event and each event is characterized by a lower shale sequence overlain by carbonates and grading into evaporites. The youngest porosity cycle is developed along an 80-mile stretch in an east to west direction, from the Texas - New Mexico border to the Pecos River of New Mexico. Over 2.2 billion barrels of oil have been produced from this cycle from depths less than 5,500’. Two giant oil fields lie within this trend; the Wasson and the Slaughter-Levelland. The oldest porosity cycle is represented in the east to west trending asphalt pit near the town of Santa Rosa, New Mexico. Estimated to have contained 90 million barrels of oil in place (New Mexico Bureau of Mines), this trap was breached during the Tertiary Period and now is exposed at the surface.. Morgan Creek’s leased block currently sits at 7,540 acres with a pending transaction that would see the company holding a total of 15,407 acres. Drilling to the target depth poses no serious operational hazards, but completion procedures will have to include sizeable hydraulic fracture programs based on sidewall cores and log analysis. Overall drilling, completion and equipping base costs, projected at $875,000 per well. The initial target location has been selected. Natural Gas Structure - Texas Management has selected this target based on its potential to contain a very large gas structure. An initial well drilled in 2007 confirms managements’ belief that the previously untapped trend contains gas shows. The imbricated Ouachita thrust fold belt marks a margin boundary between the East Texas Basin and the Gulf Coast Basin. This basin margin occurs where the two primary US continental plates collided and rolled over each other. Intense fracturing has developed secondary porosity within the thrust sheets, which overlay the foreland Pennsylvanian source beds, creating significant oil and gas traps. The Ouachita facies thrust sheet trend reservoirs can be traced from the highly faulted Potato Hills Field in Latimer County, Oklahoma (total recoverable gas reserves estimated at 700 Bcf), south into northeast Texas where they trend off to the southwest north of Waco, and finally terminate in the Pinon Field in Pecos County, Texas (total recoverable gas reserves estimated in excess of 1.0 Tcf). Morgan Creek’s interest in the Emmons Prospect focuses on the ‘stacked’ structural traps just north of Waco. In fall 2007, Morgan Creek drilled its Boggs #1 Ouachita Jackfork Sand test to 4,223’. The Boggs well results indicated a very clean Ouachita sand section with good crossover (gas effect) on logs. The well was completed and tested 1.5 Mmcf/d, but produced water at about 600 Bpd. The produced water was analyzed but did not demonstrate the salt characteristics of the area Ouachita formation water (much too fresh). The well was then shut-in pending further study. The initial target location has been selected. While the Company prepares for the drilling phase, the land team is moving forward to complete leasing activities on multiple strategic properties in the target area. The well permitting process will immediately follow these activities..
