Kaasun hinnan pudotus oli ajamassa BMX:ää nurkkaan kasvavan velkataakan vuoksi, joten odottelinkin jotain. Storm taas on hoiperrellut ilman selvää suuntaa spinoffista lähtien. Stormin johdolla on todella vahva trackrecord, mutta he ovat yrittäneet rakentaa uusinta Stormia(aiemmat Storm Energy, Storm Exploration) maakaasun varaan ja näyttää siltä että suunnitelma on jatkaa samaan suuntaan Bellamontin nielaisun jälkeen:
Bellamont shareholders retain exposure to upside associated with the Grimshaw Montney light oil pool and gain asset diversification into much larger resource opportunities at Umbach (liquids rich Montney gas) and in the Horn River Basin (Muskwa and Otter Park shale gas)
Umbachin kaasu ei ole erityisen märkä(30 tynnyriä nesteitä per mmcf)ä eikä Stormin II-laatuluokan Horn River mailla ole juurikaan arvoa näinä päivinä(kuivaa kaasua, jonka break-even on 5-6 dollaria per MCF).
