PRESS RELEASEOCTOBER 1, 2010TSX-V SYMBOL: ANG
CALGARY, Oct 1 /CNW/ - AltaCanada Energy Corp. (the "Corporation")
announces that its Board of Directors has decided to undertake a review
of strategic alternatives and has engaged CIBC World Markets Inc.
("CIBC") as its financial advisor to assist in the review process.
AltaCanada has over 390,000 gross acres of contiguous lands in northern
Montana adjacent to existing oil production in the Shaunavon and Bakken
Formations currently being pursued in Montana, North Dakota and southern
Saskatchewan by various other operators. AltaCanada and CIBC have
prepared a corporate summary document that is available on CIBC's
website (http://www.cibcwm.com/wm/investment-banking/industry-expertise/oil-gas.html).
The corporate sale of AltaCanada is only one of several alternatives
under consideration. The refinancing of the Corporation's debt as well
as merger and joint venture opportunities will also be examined in order
to maximize shareholder value and enable the Corporation to accelerate
its attractive Jurassic and Bakken drilling opportunities.
Drilling operations on the first of two scheduled wells in Blaine
County, Montana have been completed, with the East Battle well cased as
a potential Shaunavon oil well. Completion operations are scheduled to
commence in one week. The second well will spud on October 4, 2010,
targeting the Bakken formation.
The Corporation is engaged in the acquisition, exploitation and
production of crude oil and natural gas reserves in Western Canada and
Montana. For more information on the Corporation, visit www.altacanada.com.
