Alberta natural gas producer operating the Glacier Montney gas play, with a carbon capture and storage business (Entropy).
Sells natural gas and liquids from its Montney wells to marketers through processing infrastructure it owns at Glacier, and hedges part of its output. Entropy, its carbon-capture business, captures carbon dioxide from gas plants and earns by selling carbon credits and capture technology rather than from gas production.
In one line: A Montney natural gas producer with a carbon capture subsidiary.
Moat: narrow (installed base, IP / patents). Concentrated, low-cost Montney land position plus proprietary Entropy carbon-capture technology differentiate it from pure gas peers.
