• Under Section 4.1.17 and 4.1.18 of the EPEA approval, BlackPearl is required to conduct a manual stack survey on the 15 MW steam generator once within six months of commissioning.
• A manual stack survey was conducted which gave an average mass flow rate of 0.28 kg/h which is below the 1.4 kg/hr limit for NOx in the approval
• Monthly NOx is calculated by using the hourly emissions rate and knowing the monthly run time hours

• Drill and complete a 3rd well pair
⁻ The well will be drilled with a longer lateral and completed with flow control devices (FCD). Learnings from the 3rd well pair will be used to further develop a commercial well pair prototype
• Trial new water treatment technology
⁻ BlackPearl is planning on completing a 1 year trial, to test a new produced water treatment technology. Learnings from the trial will be applied to the commercial facility design.
