Following the cessation of this transaction, Ovintiv's net production, proved reserves and acreage in the Duvernay area will remian unaffected. This is because both entities reached an agreement to split the Duvernay acreage and its associated infrastructure with each company independently possessing and operating their interests going forward.

Post the completion of transaction, the company will have a consolidated interest in approximately 250,000 net acres. This Calgary-based company decided to continue managing the field until PetroChina is all set to take the reins on its lands.

Current technology will soon be outdated and replaced by these new devices. In the process, it’s expected to create 22 million jobs and generate $12.3 trillion in activity.
A select few stocks could skyrocket the most as rollout accelerates for this new tech. Early investors could see gains similar to buying Microsoft in the 1990s. Zacks’ just-released special report reveals 8 stocks to watch. The report is only available for a limited time.
