Gran Tierra Energy Inc. (GTE) is a Calgary-based independent energy company focused on the exploration and production of oil and natural gas. The company’s primary operational footprint is located in the Middle Magdalena and Putumayo basins of Colombia, with additional assets in Ecuador and Canada. Through a strategic partnership with Ecopetrol S.A., Colombia’s majority state-owned energy company, Gran Tierra develops key fields to optimize resource recovery.
The company operates within the exploration and production (E&P) sector, a segment of the oil and gas industry characterized by high capital expenditure requirements and direct exposure to global commodity price volatility. Gran Tierras business model relies on identifying under-exploited conventional reservoirs where it can apply modern drilling and enhanced oil recovery techniques to increase production volumes.
