The Play is Mature Enough to Start Identifying Outliers

Source: GeoSCOUT, GeoEDGES, BMO Capital Markets

UNCONVENTIONAL HORIZONTAL MONTNEY GAS PRODUCTION

Production from the fairway is quickly approaching 4 Bcf/d

Montney, in general, is known for its high heat content gas

Due to the dilbit demand in Western Canada, condensate is

the most desirable hydrocarbon stream

Note: Liquid Yields used in the type curve economics were assumed to be flat over the life of the curve. Rather than model a

What to Watch For

OUTLIER AREAS

Focus on continued well performance in the ranges

observed to date

For the outliers, control over infrastructure solutions will be

key to success

Continued improvements in capital efficiencies – will we see

declining cost structure?

EMERGING AREAS

Here the focus will be on consistent C5+ results from

appraisal wells

Continued improvements in deliverability as completion

practices are refined

Lay the groundwork for thoughtful development of

infrastructure – particularly liquids

SUB 100% IRR AREAS

Movement of the drill credit line east will materially and

positively impact the economics at Nig and Jedney

Changes in well completion techniques that could improve

the co-production of C5+ (slow back, larger fracs etc.) and IPs
