Investors Only: SSN Up 17 Percent Today (January13, 2011) -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

Updates 
January 17, 2011: SeekingAlpha: perhaps a bit of explanation for the run-up

November, 2010: Corporate Presentation
  • Interesting tidbit: in the August, 2010, corporate presentation SSN had 3,600 acres in the Bakken; in the November, 2010, SSN had 1,200 net acres in the Bakken
  • Acreage in the Niobrara stayed stable at 16,000 acres
  • Their presentation says they are "looking to accrete acreage in the play" -- but yet, they report a decrease in acreage. In the August presentation, they say 3,600 acres, but in November, it's 1,200 NET acres. 
  • Sold some Niobrara acreage to raise cash ($74 million)
  • By the way, that's exactly what AEZ did -- it sold all its Niobrara acreage to become a pure-play Bakken company, and was then bought out by Hess

August, 2010:  Corporate Presentation
  • August corporate presentation
  • An Australian Company, but all acreage in the US
  • Bakken: 3,600 acres -- 2 producers, 2 to frac, 2 to drill
  • Niobrara: 16,000 acres
