Production
Production averaged a record 389.2 million cubic feet of natural gas equivalent (MMcfe) per day during the fourth quarter, up 20% from the prior-year quarter. For full-year 2010, production averaged 355.2 MMcfe per day, up 9% from the 2009 total. The increase in production was primarily driven by higher volumes from the Barnett Shale. The 2010 production volumes were comprised 79% from natural gas, 20% from natural gas liquids (NGLs) and 1% from crude oil and condensate.
Revenue and Expenses
Sales of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil for the fourth quarter of 2010 were $224.9 million, up 4% from $215.5 million in the prior-year quarter. Sales of natural gas, NGLs and crude oil totaled $856.3 million for full-year 2010, up approximately 7% from 2009. The increase in product sales was primarily derived from the 9% increase in production volumes coupled with increased realized prices for NGLs and crude oil, which were offset in part by lower realized prices on natural gas.

Unit lease operating expense declined $0.05 per thousand cubic feet of natural gas equivalents (Mcfe) to $0.62 per Mcfe in the fourth quarter of 2010 and averaged $0.65 per Mcfe for full-year 2010, down 3% from the 2009 rate. Unit gathering, processing and transportation expense was $1.20 per Mcfe and $0.73 per Mcfe for the fourth quarter and full year of 2010, respectively. Both periods reflect the higher reported costs of these activities following the sale of the company’s interests in Quicksilver Gas Services on October 1, 2010.
Impact from BreitBurn Ownership
For the 2010 fourth quarter, Quicksilver reported a loss of $1.9 million attributable to the company’s approximate 29% interest in BreitBurn Energy Partners L.P.’s (Nasdaq: BBEP) third-quarter 2010 results, including losses of approximately $9.5 million from derivatives. During the fourth quarter of 2010, Quicksilver received approximately $6.1 million in cash distributions associated with its ownership of BreitBurn units. For full-year 2010, Quicksilver received $20.9 million in distributions and an additional $18 million related to the settlement of the BreitBurn litigation.
Total Debt
At December 31, 2010, the company’s total debt was approximately $1.9 billion, a reduction of approximately $537 million from year-end 2009. Total debt per proved reserve equivalent has been reduced to $0.65 per Mcfe. Currently, Quicksilver Resources has approximately $836 million available under its $1 billion senior secured revolving credit facility.
Operational Update
In the Barnett Shale, the company drilled 20 (17.8 net) operated wells and connected 38 (27.3 net) operated wells to sales during the fourth quarter. For full-year 2010, the company drilled 96 (81.6 net) operated wells and connected 116 (93.2 net) operated wells to sales. At year end 2010, Quicksilver had an inventory of 121 operated wells that were drilled but uncompleted in the Barnett Shale.
During 2010 in the Horseshoe Canyon area of Alberta, Canada, the company drilled 14 (9.9 net) wells and connected 54 (36.6 net) wells to sales lines. As previously announced, in October 2010, Quicksilver acquired interests in an additional 47,000 gross (21,700 net) acres in the Joffre area of the Horseshoe Canyon, where the company already operates. The $22 million acquisition included approximately 23 billion cubic feet of proved developed natural gas reserves and net production of approximately 5 million cubic feet (MMcf) per day of natural gas.
In the Horn River Basin of northeast British Columbia, Quicksilver has now drilled six horizontal wells into the Muskwa and Klua formations and four wells have commenced production. The company expects to finish drilling activities on two additional Muskwa wells before spring break-up begins in late March. In addition the company has drilled its first horizontal well into the Exshaw formation. Completion activities on the most recent four Muskwa wells and Exshaw well are anticipated to begin this summer.

Capital
During the fourth quarter of 2010, the company incurred capital costs of approximately $180 million. This resulted in total capital costs for the year of approximately $588 million, of which approximately 77% was associated with drilling and completion activities, approximately 13% for midstream activities, approximately 8% for acreage purchases and approximately 2% for other assets. In addition, the company completed acquisitions totaling $147 million for additional interests in the Lake Arlington project in the Barnet Shale and the Joffre property in Horseshoe Canyon.
First-Quarter 2011 Outlook
First-quarter 2011 production volume is expected to average in the range of 390 MMcfe to 400 MMcfe per day. Average unit expenses, on a Mcfe basis, are expected as follows:
| | | |
| • Lease operating expense | | $.59 - $ .64 |
| • Gathering, processing & transportation | | 1.22 - 1.27 |
| • Production taxes | | .24 - .26 |
| • General and administrative | | .57 - .60 |
| • Depletion, depreciation & accretion | | 1.45 - 1.50 |
The company has hedges in place to cover approximately 64% of expected production for the first quarter of 2011. A total of 190 MMcf per day of natural gas is covered by collars with a weighted-average floor price of $5.95 per thousand cubic feet (Mcf) and 10,500 barrels per day of NGLs are covered by fixed-price swaps with a weighted-average price of $38.84 per barrel for the first quarter and full year of 2011.
