Selected Financial Information
Highlights
Q2 2011 Netback Analysis
Natural gas revenues decreased to $5,155 thousand in Q2 2011 from $6,141 thousand in Q2 2010 due to the decrease in the average daily natural gas production to 11.7 mmscfpd in Q2 2011 from 13.6 mmscfpd in Q2 2010. The average natural gas sales price was also decreased to $4.83/mscf in Q2 2011 from $4.95/mscf in Q2 2010.
The increase in the royalty expense per mscf for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $0.12/mscf from $0.02/mscf for the three months ended June 30, 2010 is due to a decrease in the expenses allowable in the royalty calculation.
Production expense for Q2 2011 increased to $1,103 thousand from $864 thousand for Q2 2010 due to the increase in repairs and maintenance expenses as Corridor's annual shut-down normally done in the third quarter was done in the second quarter this year. Utilities expense also increased due to the addition of an inlet compressor in Q3 2010.
Transportation expense decreased to $1,359 thousand for Q2 2011 from $1,727 thousand for Q2 2010 due to the decrease in natural gas production and a stronger Canadian dollar as compared to the U.S. dollar.
