Kelt Exploration Ups Oil Drilling With Record Q1 Output and Raises 2026 Production Target Kelt Exploration reported record average production of 48,098 BOE per day for Q1 2026, above its earlier guidance.
The company increased its 2026 capital expenditure program from $355 million to $375 million, with more spending directed to drilling and completing wells, particularly oil wells.
Management now forecasts 2026 average production between 50,000 and 52,000 BOE per day and expects adjusted funds from operations to be 7% higher than previous estimates.
For you as an investor, the key takeaway is that Kelt is leaning into higher oil prices by allocating more capital to oil-weighted drilling and completions. Record Q1 output and a higher full-year production range suggest the company is planning to run its asset base harder, with a greater focus on oil and NGLs within its production mix.
The increase in forecast adjusted funds from operations, alongside the larger capital budget, signals a willingness to reinvest more cash flow back into the business. When you assess this update, you may want to compare the step-up in spending with any changes in corporate priorities such as balance sheet strength, potential returns of capital, or growth objectives, and consider how a more oil-weighted profile fits with your view on commodity exposure and risk.

New minor risk - Profit margin trend The company's profit margins are lower than last year and have reduced by more than 30%. Net profit margin: 20% Last year net profit margin: 29% This is considered a minor risk. A large drop in profit margin could indicate the company does not have strong competitive advantages or it is yet to establish itself and its core business. Even if it is a well established business, this may make it a much riskier investment than one that has a combination of proven competitive advantages and a stable or growing profit margin. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Ankündigung • Mar 09

Kelt Exploration Ltd. Provides Update on New Gas Processing Capacity Kelt Exploration Ltd. provided an update on new gas processing capacity acquired through various firm service arrangements that are expected to provide the Company with the ability to double its current production capability over the next three years. This increase in production capability will come while the Company maintains its oil/gas production mix at similar levels to its current production mix. The Company is also providing an update on upcoming plant maintenance that is expected to result in temporary production curtailments in the near term. In its Wembley/Pipestone Division, Kelt expects to increase firm service raw gas processing capacity from 37 MMcf per day to 109 MMcf per day over the next 18 months. The Company has entered into gas processing arrangements with certain midstream companies that are building a new gas processing plant and expanding an existing gas processing plant in the area. The additional 22 MMcf per day of firm service processing capacity that was anticipated by Kelt to become available in the first quarter of 2024, could become available in late December 2023. As the Company prepares to add production upon start-up of the incremental gas processing, Kelt has drilled nine Montney wells at Wembley/Pipestone of which seven have now been completed and the remaining two wells are expected to be completed in October 2023. The Company expects to flow these wells back and use its current gas processing capacity to produce these oilier wells while at the same time shut-in older gassier wells as it awaits the start-up of new incremental processing capacity. Kelt will have access, through ownership interests and firm service arrangements, to five different gas processing plants in the Wembley/Pipestone area, providing the Company with operating flexibility and the ability to significantly grow its production base in the future. In its Pouce Coupe/Progress/Spirit River Division, Kelt currently has access to approximately 72 MMcf per day of raw gas processing capacity through a plant ownership interest and third-party facility firm service arrangements. Kelt expects to increase its overall raw gas processing capacity in the area to 107 MMcf per day over the next two years with incremental firm service arrangements, giving the Company access to five different gas plants in the area. The Company expects to start-up four new Charlie Lake wells in the area during the fourth quarter of 2023. Two wells (100% WI) are in the Company's new area at Pouce Coupe North and the other two wells (50% WI) are at Progress. In its Oak/Flatrock Division, Kelt has the ability to increase firm service raw gas processing capacity from 25 MMcf per day to 90 MMcf per day over the next 30 months through gas processing arrangements with a third-party. Kelt expects to put on production five new Montney wells in October 2023 and expects to have an active drilling program in the area in 2024. Ankündigung • Sep 08
