Each week, XI Technologies scans their unique combination of enhanced industry data to provide trends and insights that have value for professionals doing business in the WCSB. If you’d like to receive our Wednesday Word to the Wise in your inbox, subscribe here.
For years, XI Technologies has published top tens lists examining data from new wells to provide a snapshot of the success of recent drilling efforts. This year, we wanted to expand this snapshot to look at production successes of all assets active in Western Canada, not just those recently brought online. This will help tell more of the story of our industry, how it persevered in 2020, and who were the companies leading the way.
The data on this list is compiled from our AssetBook software, the ultimate industry intelligence source for Canadian E&P companies and anyone who does business with them. Click on any of the below graphics for a zoomed in look.
