Surge Energy Inc. agreed to acquire Astra Oil Corp., which the company said represents an “exciting reentry” into southeast Saskatchewan for the Surge team.
The Astra acquisition will be funded through the issuance of Surge common shares and the assumption of approximately CA$15 million of net debt for total consideration of roughly CA$160 million. The assets include more than 4,100 boe/d (90% liquids) of operated, light oil production with an operating netback of more than $42 per boe at US$65 WTI pricing.
