LD Micro 20th Annual Main Event Conference summary
25 Oct, 2026SFD proposition
Airborne SFD identifies hydrocarbon accumulation anomalies in months, works with seismic, and is applicable onshore and offshore.
SFD detects both structural and harder-to-find stratigraphic traps; combined with other G&G data, it can raise client exploration success rates to up to 81%, versus a cited historical 30%.
Across 39 drilling recommendations over 10–15 years, 31 resulted in commercial discoveries; SFD identifies pressurized trapped-fluid bodies, while drilling determines whether they contain commercial hydrocarbons.
The approach is positioned as rapid, lower-cost, efficient and environmentally low-impact; avoiding an unpromising drill can save clients CAD 5–10 million.
Operating and commercial progress
In 2025, revenue reached CAD 16.4 million versus CAD 0.6 million in 2024; operating cash flow was CAD 1.2 million, and three surveys were completed versus historically one every two or three years.
Two surveys were active at the conference: an African survey acquired in August was in interpretation, and a South Asia survey was expected to start the next day, finish in about a week, with results in December.
The remaining work on a Pakistan survey flown in December and January was scheduled for completion in December.
Repeat demand includes a fourth African survey for the same client; in South Asia, a second survey and work with neighboring markets were cited as evidence of regional adjacency.
Ownership and growth plans
All SFD technology rights were acquired in December 2025, with no royalties, licensing fees or time limit; the aircraft lease was paid out by September 28, 2026.
More than 50,000 line kilometers of Western Canada data are under review; plans are to rank anomalies, acquire hydrocarbon rights and develop prospects using low-capital methods.
A CAD 2 million investment received almost a year earlier is funding the Western Canada opportunity, described as a next step in applying SFD to local resources.
Survey planning typically takes three to four months, creating a timing lag between survey activity and cash flow.
