NPV(10) is the net value of the gas flows after Income Tax (minus the cost of the well) | |||||||||||

No IRR was calculated since NPV is negative. | |||||||||||
NPV is negative which means well should not be drilled until gas prices increase and the capital cost of each well decreases. | |||||||||||
I believe that Forest Oil decreased their capital cost in a Canadian project from 10 million to about 4 milllion | |||||||||||
after 10 wells. | |||||||||||
