Allied Energy Corporation (OTCMKTS:AGYP)

Texas-based oil and gas exploration company, Allied Energy Corporation (OTCMKTS:AGYP) has had an eventful past few months.

The company released a major study in July announcing the Proved, Probable and Possible resources in the company’s two North Texas leases, the Green Lease and Annie Gilmer Leases respectively. 

If you are new to oil & gas investments or are unsure what that means:

  1. Proven reserves sit at the top of the scale, at a 90-percent or above likelihood of commercial extraction.
  2. Probable reserves are those with the likelihood of recovery for between possible and proved reserves, or over 50-percent but under 90-percent
  3. Probable reserves are those with the likelihood of recovery for between possible and proved reserves, or over 50-percent but under 90-percent.

Now that you know what they mean let’s look at what AGYP has reported:

The Green Lease:

Proved: $2,026,500

Probable: $5,781,300

Possible: $12,755,300

TOTAL:  $20,563,100

The Annie Gilmer Lease.

Proved: $6,704,900

Probable: $1,902,200

Possible: $3,587,700

TOTAL: $12,194,800

Let’s add these numbers up for some perspective on the total potential of these leases:

Total Proved: $8,731,400

Total Probable: $7,683,500

Total Possible: $16,343,000

GRAND TOTAL: $32,757,900

A very impressive number in its own right, however, it becomes more impressive when you consider these prices are at a conservative estimate of oil barrels priced at $46.26.

Oil is currently around $70 per barrel, so considering the two leases’ potential at $70 per barrel the new grand total would be $49,568,804 that’s 51% higher than AGYP’s ultra-conservative estimate.

Consider that in June, Bank of America strategist Francisco Blanch stated “We think in the next three years we could see $100 barrels again, and we stand by that.”  

The company is now closer to achieving these numbers, last week they announced oil production has commenced at the Green Lease.  They are also close on the Annie Gilmer lease.  Things could heat up for the stock this fall.
