Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS | Strongbow Resources Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 9, 2004. The Company is in the exploration stage and focuses its business efforts on the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas properties. |
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As of August 31, 2013, the Company has not achieved profitable operations and has accumulated a deficit of $2,275,306. | |
As of August 31, 2013, eight Statements of Claim totaling $443,056 (CAD$466,522) are outstanding against the Company for non-payment of past due invoices. Five Claims totaling $137,561 (CAD$144,847) were ruled by the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta and resulted in garnishment of the Company’s deposit account of $91,061 (CAD$95,884) and were distributed to the vendors proportional to the amounts owed. All remaining Claims are currently recorded as accounts payable. | |
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and pay its liabilities when they come due. To date, the Company has funded operations through the issuance of capital stock and debt. Management plans to continue raising additional funds through equity or debt financings and loans from directors. There is no certainty that further funding will be available as needed. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue operating as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue its operations as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise sufficient new capital to fund its operating commitments and ongoing losses and ultimately on generating profitable operations. |

OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES | Effective February 21, 2012, the Company entered into a Farmout Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Harvest Operations Corp. (“Farmor”). The Agreement provided for the Company’s acquisition of an undivided 100% working interest (“Working Interest”) in a petroleum and natural gas license covering land located in the Compeer Area in the Province of Alberta, Canada (the “Farmout Lands”). |
To earn the Working Interest the Company was required to drill, complete, equip or abandon a test well on the Farmout Lands (“Test Well”). On March 14, 2012, the Company obtained operator status and was transferred the well license relating to the Test Well. | |
The Company’s Working Interest in the Farmout Lands will be held subject to a non-convertible overriding royalty payable to the Farmor (“Farmor’s Royalty”). The Farmor’s Royalty on net crude oil revenues will be measured on a sliding scale from 5% to 15% over a range of production volumes from 1 to 150 barrels per day. The Farmor’s Royalty on net gas and other petroleum product revenues is 15%. | |
The Test Well was spudded on May 27, 2012, and the total depth drilled in the Test Well met the contract depth requirements under the Agreement. | |
On September 5, 2012, the Company received an earning notice granting the Company a 100% working interest in the Farmout Lands. | |
As of August 31, 2013, the Company has incurred approximately $1,410,000 in exploration costs to drill, complete and equip the Test Well. Two cores were cut in the Test Well; the first core was in the Viking Formation and the second was in the deeper Bakken Formation. | |
During the six months ended August 31, 2013, net proceeds of $18,784 received from the sales of oil less direct costs of $11,845 was credited to the carrying value of the oil and gas properties. | |
During the year ended February 28, 2013, the Bakken core confirmed there was no oil potential in the Bakken Formation and an impairment charge of $568,612 was recorded. |
