Sagd project, description	The first SAGD well pair, for the SAGD Project, was drilled to a vertical depth of approximately 650 meters with a horizontal length of 780 meters each. Steam injection commenced in May 2014 and production started in September of 2014. Production from this one SAGD well pair increased significantly over the 18-month period it produced. Over January and February of 2016 production from the SAGD Project averaged 615 bopd, on a 100% basis (154 bopd net to us), with an average SOR of 2.1 from one SAGD well pair. The SOR is reflective of the amount of steam needed to produce one barrel of oil. This SAGD Project was temporarily suspended at the end of February 2016. The Company anticipates that a reactivation of the existing SAGD Project facility and current SAGD well pair will be part of a potential commercial expansion. In early May of 2016, an amended application was submitted to the Alberta Energy Regulator ("AER") for an expansion of the existing SAGD Project facility site which would potentially increase the operation for up to a total of eight SAGD well pairs. This expansion application sought approval to expand the current SAGD Project facility site to 3,200 bopd (100% basis). The Company anticipates that only five SAGD well pairs will 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 this expansion of the Company's existing SAGD Project was granted in December of 2017. While the joint venture has not yet approved to expand the SAGD Project facility, 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 commercial development at Sawn Lake.
