Business Operations[edit]
InPlay’s operations are pivoted on its three properties, focusing more on the Cardium Formation within the popular Pembina and Willesden Green pools. Its long-term strategic plan is to establish a sustainable oil and natural gas company. The company intends to generate significant value from exploration activities in the promising Belly River asset and the emerging Duverney project.

The focus on low-decline acquisitions provides a strong foundation for the company’s growth.[2]
Assets[edit]
Cardium[edit]
The asset accounted for approximately 70% of InPlay’s production in 2016. Despite extensive development over a long period, the pools within the Cardium asset still show the presence of large reserves of unrecovered oil. Horizontal drilling techniques have been applied on the wells, yielding better results than vertical drilling procedures previously employed over a long time. A surge in the company’s production and reserves via horizontal drilling wells is reinforced by vintage production boosted by long-term waterflood.[3]
Belly River[edit]
The Belly River property is located East of the Pembina Cardium Pool. A huge chunk of the asset requires low capital to maintain production courtesy of the waterflood, which provides a low-decline asset. This feature avails substantial free cash flow that the company can use to develop the underlying asset or other assets. The property’s development opportunities circle targeting oil in tight sands. Low recovery factors are incurred on the projects by drilling horizontal multi-frac wells.[4]
Duvernay[edit]
Duvernay is a light oil play that poses massive potential material value to the company. InPlay has explicit rights to the asset. Its depths are slightly greater than Cardium’s, resulting in manageable Well costs. The firm scheduled its first evaluation drills of the property in 2017.[5]
According to InPlays quarter 3 2022 operational results, the company's production averaged 9,495 boe/d (54% light crude oil & NGLs) in sales, 58% higher than its production in the same quarter of 2021. The company has also recorded a consecutive increase in production for the past six quarters.[6]
