"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
- Multiple Oil & Gas Properties.
The Company currently has an oil prospect in New
Mexico, a natural gas structure in Texas and an option to
earn a 60% working interest of Bonanza Resources Corp's 85%
working interest in the North Fork 3-D prospect in Beaver
County, Oklahoma.
- Close Proximity To Huge Oil
Fields. 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.
- Natural Gas Potential.
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.
Intense fracturing has developed secondary porosity within
the thrust sheets, which overlay the foreland Pennsylvanian
source beds, creating significant oil and gas traps.
- Definitive Agreement Signed in
Oklahoma. Morgan Creek Energy Corp. recently
announced that they have entered into a Definitive
Agreement, with Bonanza Resources Corporation, for an option
to earn a 60% working interest of Bonanza's 85% working
interest in the North Fork 3-D prospect in Beaver County,
Oklahoma.
- Long Term Bullish Trend For Oil.
Goldman Sachs recently said oil prices are likely to
be higher in the future due to a recovery in demand and a
decline in production. Goldman said 2010-13 is likely to see
a dramatic acceleration of non-Opec production decline, with
annual production losses of up to one million barrels per
day.
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
an option to earn a 60% working interest of Bonanza Resources
Corp's 85% working interest in the North Fork 3-D prospect in
Beaver County, Oklahoma. 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.

large gas structure. An initial well drilled in 2007 confirms
managements’ belief that the previously untapped trend

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.
Morgan Creek Energy Corp. recently announced that they have
entered into a Definitive Agreement, with Bonanza Resources
Corporation, for an option to earn a 60% working interest of
Bonanza's 85% working interest in the North Fork 3-D prospect
in Beaver County, Oklahoma.
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 $0.75.
Goldman Sachs recently said oil prices
are likely to be higher in the future due to a recovery in
demand and a decline in production. Goldman said 2010-13 is
likely to see a dramatic acceleration of non-Opec production
decline, with annual production losses of up to one million
barrels per day.
"We believe oil equities and the oil price are close to
breaking out of the narrow trading range seen over the past
three months. The key catalyst, in our view, will be evidence
that global oil demand has returned to positive year-over-year
growth," said Goldman.
While short-term prices may flounder a
bit due to the recent run-up of oil from March lows, the low
term trends are still bullish. But regardless if the price of
crude oil is at $55 a barrel or $85 a barrel, 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.
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).
Projects
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.
Oklahoma Prospect
Morgan Creek Energy Corp. recently
announced that they have entered into a Definitive
Agreement, with Bonanza Resources Corporation, for an option
to earn a 60% working interest of Bonanza's 85% working
interest in the North Fork 3-D prospect in Beaver County,
Oklahoma. In order to exercise the option, Morgan Creek is
required to incur US$2,400,000 in exploration and drilling
expenditures in the next 12 months.
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."
Bonanza Resources Corporation, through its subsidiary,
acquired an 85% interest in the North Fork 3-D prospect
pursuant to an agreement with Radiant Energy, LLC and Ryan
Petroleum, LLC dated February 25, 2008 (the "Original
Agreement"). Pursuant to the Definitive Agreement, Morgan
Creek will assume 60% of Bonanza's rights, title, interest
and obligations under the Original Agreement for the
duration of the option period and will continue to do so in
the event that the option is exercised.
