Mountainview Energy Ltd. President and CEO Patrick Montalban commented: "The oil and gas reserves have increased 15 times year over year, which is a testament to the hard work and expertise of the team at Mountainview. We have grown our reserve value by over 800 percent, supporting our view that the 12 Gage Project is a tremendous asset, a 'Company Builder.' We look forward to further growth as we continue to develop the Three Forks and begin to develop the Bakken in Divide County, North Dakota. We will continue to focus on improving development and production costs as we refine operations in the field."
