General
We
are in
the business of refurbishing drilling rigs and deploying them for use by oil
and
natural gas producers. Currently, we provide contract land drilling services
to
an oil and gas company in New Mexico. We are building our fleet of land rigs,
and have (i) one rig completely refurbished and deployed to provide drillings
services for Chesapeake
Energy (“Chesapeake”)
pursuant
to a daywork contract, (ii) a second rig recently acquired and ready to be
deployed in March 2007 to provide drilling services for Ridgeway Arizona Oil
Corp. (“Ridgeway”) pursuant to a daywork contract, (iii) a third rig in which we
are in the process of purchasing component parts/refurbishing/assembling for
anticipated deployment in a few months, and (iv) miscellaneous component parts
for future rigs we plan to acquire additional components for, refurbish,
assemble and deploy. In addition to providing drilling services, we intend
to
provide the crews and equipment used in the operation of these drilling rigs.
We
believe that there is a scarcity of land drilling rigs currently available
for
use, and that our ability to refurbish drilling rigs will allow us to meet
market demand before new drilling rigs are built and enter the
market.
Organizational
History
We
were
organized May 1987 under the name Process Technology, Inc. (“Process”) and did
not conduct any significant business operations for the five years prior to
May
2006. In
June
2006, we entered the oil and gas industry through the acquisition of all of
the
capital stock of Forster
Tool & Supply, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Forster Tool”), in exchange for
40,055,463
shares
of
our stock, which represented approximately 95% of Process’ issued and
outstanding shares of common stock at the time of the closing (“the
Reorganization”). In connection with the Reorganization, we changed our name to
Forster Drilling Corporation. Forster Tool was organized in March 2005 and
has
operated in the oil and gas industry ,
primarily remanufacturing and refurbishing drilling rigs and drilling rig parts,
since its inception.
As a
result of the Reorganization, Forster Tool became our wholly owned subsidiary
and our financial statements became those of Forster Tool. In June 2006, we
organized two additional wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) Forster Drilling Inc.,
a
Texas corporation, to conduct our U.S. land based contract drilling activities
and (ii) Forster Exploration & Production, Inc., a Nevada corporation, to
conduct our U.S. based exploration and production activities. Any and all
reference to “Forster”, the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” means Forster
Drilling Corporation collectively with each of the three
subsidiaries.
Business
Strategy
Our
business strategy is focused on the re-manufacturing of drilling rigs.
Re-manufacturing includes the refurbishment and renovating of used drilling
parts and the assembly of the parts to complete a drilling rig. We are marketing
our drilling services to oil and natural gas exploration and production
companies operating in New Mexico and Texas. We believe that there exists a
current demand for land drilling rigs. Our goal is to provide our refurbished
drilling rigs to the market before newly manufactured rigs reach the market.
We
believe that manufacturing capacity for drilling rigs is currently low which
has
led to a current backlog of newly manufactured rigs. We also believe the high
demand for and the low supply of drilling rigs presents a business opportunity
for those companies who can move drilling rigs quickly into the
market.
We
believe the current land drilling industry is experiencing growth. Land drilling
companies are putting land drilling rigs into active drilling service to meet
the demands of oil and natural gas prospects. In addition, we believe natural
gas production and exploration companies are in need of contract drilling
services to exploit higher current natural gas prices. We believe natural gas
prices have been on the rise due to (i) diminishing returns from current natural
gas fields and (ii) increasing demand to generate electricity in the United
States. We anticipate that a steady increase in natural gas prices may in turn
increase the amount of drilling activity conducted by natural gas exploration
and production companies. This demand can be met onshore by land drilling
companies who provide the equipment and crews to drill the wells for the
exploration and production industry.
Market
Conditions In Our Industry
The
U.S.
contract land drilling industry is cyclical. Volatility in oil and natural
gas
prices can produce significant changes in the overall level of drilling activity
in the markets we hope to serve, affecting the demand for our future drilling
services and the dayrates we hope to charge. The availability of financing,
prevailing oil and natural gas prices, and the outlook for future oil and
natural gas prices strongly influence the drilling capital expenditures of
oil
and natural gas producers.
On
June 5, 2006, the spot price for West Texas Intermediate crude oil was
$72.
