Germany
Since 2014, we have bolstered our presence in the country with the execution of a significant farm-in agreement in 2015, the addition of further licenses, and the 2016 acquisition of operated producing properties.
Additionally, in 2021, Vermilion completed two minor acquisitions, increasing the Company’s non-operated working interest in certain assets to 50%. Germany is the largest gas market in Europe and has a long history of oil and natural gas development. Our principal operations are located in the Lower Saxony region of the country and our German office is located in Hannover.

North America
In Canada, Vermilion is focused on developing liquids-rich gas assets in the Deep Basin and Montney. Vermilion is one of the largest producers in the highly productive Deep Basin in Western Alberta. In addition, we hold a contiguous Montney land position in the Peace River Arch in British Columbia and Alberta. In the United States, Vermilion has a significant land position in the promising Turner Sand play in the Powder River Basin. Our North American assets represent approximately 70% of our total corporate production.
Europe
Vermilion’s European assets consist of onshore and offshore operations that deliver premium commodity pricing through Brent-priced light oil production and European natural gas prices trade at a significant premium to North American benchmarks. Our European assets contribute approximately 25% of total corporate production.
Australia
Vermilion holds a 100% working interest in the Wandoo field, offshore Australia. Vermilion’s Australian oil production receives premium pricing due to Brent-indexing and the strong, long-term, strategic relationships we have cultivated with our key customers in the region.
