- Valeura Energy Inc. Valeura Energy Inc. is a Canadian public company focused on the exploration, development, and production of petroleum and natural gas, primarily through operated oil-producing assets in the offshore Gulf of Thailand including the Jasmine, Manora, Nong Yao, and Wassana fields; a deep, tight gas appraisal play in the Thrace Basin of northwest Türkiye; and emerging exploration opportunities in Southeast Asia. The company, founded in 2010 and headquartered in Calgary, Alberta with executive offices in Singapore, targets value-accretive growth for shareholders via organic development, mergers and acquisitions, and reinvestment in high-cash-flow assets serving energy markets in Thailand and Türkiye. Recent developments include a transformative shift from a small Turkish gas explorer to Thailand's second-largest oil producer with output exceeding 26,000 barrels per day following accretive acquisitions and field restarts; repayment of debt to achieve a strong net cash position of approximately US$259 million; a 2024 reserves replacement ratio over 200 percent with 2P reserves growing across all fields and after-tax NPV10 rising 188 percent to US$752 million; the August 2024 onstream launch of Nong Yao field development boosting production 36 percent year-over-year; an October 2025 joint venture agreement with a Transatlantic Petroleum LLC subsidiary enabling re-entry and testing of the Devepinar-1 well in Türkiye's Thrace Basin, with potential for a 50 percent working interest earn-in via further appraisal drilling; and a 2025 drilling program encompassing 13 development wells, the Ratree exploration well, and pursuit of operational efficiencies alongside Wassana field redevelopment targeting final investment decision in Q2 2025.
