Supplemental Oil And Gas Information

15. Supplemental Oil and Gas Information (unaudited)



Information with respect to the Company’s oil and gas producing activities is presented in the following tables. Estimates of reserves quantities, as well as future production and discounted cash flows before income taxes, were determined by LaRoche Petroleum Consultants Ltd.  All of the Company’s reserves were located in the United States.

The Company’s Proved Undeveloped Reserves at December 31, 2018 included 7 locations and at December 31, 2017 included 3 locations, and no locations at December 31, 2019.  During 2019, all Proved Undeveloped locations were removed from the Company’s Proved Reserves primarily due to the low oil prices experienced during 2019.



The following table identifies the Company’s net proved reserve value by category and the respective present values, before income taxes, discounted at 10% as a percentage of total proved reserves (in thousands):

Estimated future net cash flows represent an estimate of future net revenues from the production of proved reserves using average sales prices along with estimates of the operating costs, production taxes and future development and abandonment cost (less salvage value) necessary to produce such reserves. Future income taxes were calculated by applying the statutory federal and state income tax rates to pre-tax future net cash flows, net of the tax basis of the properties and utilizing available tax loss carryforwards related to oil and gas operations. The oil prices used for December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017 were $50.65, and $60.21, and $45.83 per barrel of oil, respectively.  The Company’s proved reserves as of December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 were measured by using commodity prices based on the twelve month unweighted arithmetic average of the first day of the month price for the period January through December.  No deduction has been made for depreciation, depletion, or any indirect cost such as general corporate overhead or interest expense.
