The senior management of Covalent have developed or managed many of the ground-breaking unconventional gas projects throughout the world including the first commercial coalmine methane in the U.S. at the Soldier Canyon mine in Utah in 1981, as well as providing technical and operational support to the first coalbed methane projects in several countries.

Covalent Energy was formed in 2000 to partner with Kalahari Gas Corporation to develop a 2 million acre CBM lease in Botswana.  For the project, Covalent provides technical direction and helped facilitate an $8.5 million loan guarantee from the Overseas Private Investment Corporation.  Since this initial project, Covalent has developed gas shale and CBM projects in the U.S. and is actively involved in several CBM/CMM and gas shale projects overseas.

Our experience spans the range of expertise required to take a project from play concept through production including geologic and engineering evaluation, project financing, and project management.
