According to SISM: Tamm Oil Adds 138,000 Net Acres to its Heavy Oil Portfolio
and Becomes One of the Major Players in the Heavy Oil Development Area of Peace
River -- Tamm`s Manning Prospect is Worth $10.40 Per Share Prior to the New
Acquisition
NEW YORK--(Business Wire)--
(Investrend Research Syndicate) Ernest C. Schlotter, a senior analyst with SISM
Research and a four star analyst according to StarMine, has released a research
note for Tamm Oil and Gas (OTCBB: TAMO), dated June 30, 2009, focusing on heavy
oil developments in Peace River, Alberta.
The research note is available at the Investrend web site
(http://www.investrend.com/articles/article.asp?analystId=0&id=56&topicId=19&level=19),
and complimentary copy of SISM`s most recent update report on Tamm Oil & Gas,
dated June 5, 2009, is available for download via the Investrend Syndications
website (http://www.investrendsyndications.net/resources/sism%20research/).
Both today`s research note and the recent update report include important
disclosures, disclaimers and analyst qualifications, Investors are strongly
advised to read disclosures carefully before trading in the equities of any
publicly traded company.
According to the research note:
"Tamm Oil is aggressively acquiring heavy oil leaseholds in the Peace River
area. Currently, Tamm controls more than 30,000 acres of land in the Manning
area, and based on a Chapman Petroleum Engineering report and adjusted by SISM
Research, the total calculated heavy oil-in-place is 3,158,871,600 bbls. This
number has to be confirmed by an independent engineering firm. Early this week,
Tamm announced it had entered into a farm-in agreement to acquire a 100% Working
Interest in heavy oil rights on 138,000 net acres of land in the Peace River
area. With the new acquisition, Tamm will increase its leaseholds to 168,000
acres and this will make the Company one of the major players in the heavy oil
area in Alberta. The new lands have prospective heavy oil targets in the Lower
Cretaceous Bluesky and Wabasca sands, which have substantial heavy oil
production in nearby areas, Many of the largest oil companies in Canada have
regional developments adjacent to these lands including PennWest, Husky, Shell,
and Bronco Energy. The northern Alberta region is well known for its prolific
oil and gas production. The remarkable Red Earth oilfield, which was discovered
in 1956 has produced more than 6,000 oil and/or gas wells in the region.
Significant heavy oil land sales occurred in 2008 adjacent to Tamm`s new
prospects. High oil production occurs mainly within the boundaries of the Peace
River Arch, which is close to Tamm`s prospects.
"During the last two years, Tamm Oil created a very significant amount of value
by acquiring substantial heavy oil resources in Peace River Area," said Ernest
Schlotter. He continued; "We have not given any value to the new acquisition to
demonstrate our conservative approach, and we believe even this fact is not yet
recognized in the share price". Currently, the Company is valued at half of its
landhold, which should be worth $121.0 million or $1.51 per share. The current
EV ratio on 3.15 billion barrels of heavy oil originally-in-place is only
$0.021, and on estimated recoverable resources $0.061. Further, established and
developed oil sands companies are trading at an EV ratio of $1.0. Resources
locked in carbonate rock like Tamm`s are more analogous to oil shale for which
there is a substantial discount relative to oil sands resources. Therefore, an
EV ratio for Tamm of $0.75 is appropriate. We have been using three different
metrics to assess the value of Tamm Oil, which includes a pre-production
assessment on 3.15 billion OOIP at $0.10 per barrel, a 35% recovery rate on 3.15
billions OOIP at $0.20 per barrel, and value for land based on an average of
what has already been paid for. Based on our findings, using these three
different valuation metrics, and using an EV ratio of $0.75 instead of $1.00,
and assuming a 35% recoverable rate of heavy oil, the Tamm Manning Prospect is
worth $10.40 per share without new acquisitions, which we will update on our
next report. We acknowledge that the risk profile may be more than some
investors are comfortable with, and therefore we recommend the stock be
purchased only by investors who can tolerate above average risk."
