SAGD Project Expansion AER Approval				The amended application sought approval to expand the existing SAGD Project facility site to 3,200 bopd (100% basis). It is anticipated that only five SAGD well pairs need to be operating to achieve this production level. The expanded facility will be designed to handle up to 3,200 bopd. The AER approval for the expansion of the existing SAGD Project was granted on December 14, 2017. While the joint venture has not yet approved to expand the SAGD Project, currently, the SAGD Project continues to move forward with engineering and identification of long lead time items towards potential expansion to 3,200 bopd and future development at Sawn Lake.
