Surface Land Management

Surface Land Acquisition

Blackgold has unparalleled experience in surface land acquisition and management in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and many US States.

The definitive principle in the Blackgold Advantage is strategic thinking and execution on capital programs. The key to a company’s success in our industry is access to resources. At the intersection of the regulatory world and law is where Blackgold has staked its claim.
The difference between a capital project moving forward is based on development planning. Knowing the pressure points, and more importantly, knowing how to mitigate them will determine if timelines and budgets are met.
Foresight is mandatory in our current environment and will be even more prevalent in the future. A comprehensive acquisition strategy is a requirement in this current climate.
What sets Blackgold apart is the decade of in-house multi-million dollar strategic planning. At project conceptualization you need the experience to execute and deliver, otherwise, it will never come to fruition.
Being an expert in Crown and Freehold acquisition and all the intricacies involved, is the world we live in.
Our bespoke style of service is unmatched. Our experts will develop your program, execute it - then leave, freeing up needed capital. Our retention offers you “only a call away” style of service - you pay when you need us.

Acquisitions & Divestiture

A&D is a required necessity in this current climate. Traditionally producers built BOE/D organically, that is to say by the drill bit.
Today with the current LMR structure this is not the case. Producers can often buy producing assets cheaper than you can drill and complete them. Blackgold saw this and has capitalized on it.

Acquisitions & Divestiture

Whether you are 10 BOE/D or 1,000,000 BOE/D this is a huge part of the business. Experience at major producers working closely with BD departments we have the network and expertise to deliver.
