2 Outline Introduction SA Performance Facilities Regulatory Future Plans

3 Introduction evon Canada Corporation has been operator of the over SA Facility since January 1, On February 28, 2005, evon s interest was sold, and operatorship was transferred to Petro-Canada Oil and as. evon continues to hold a working interest in the OVAP Vapex Pilot (reported separately). Confidentiality of all over SA data was removed ecember 31, This progress report covers the 14 month period from January 1, 2004 to February 28, Future Plans as per I will be presented by Petro- Canada.

9 Overview Phase B 3 SA pairs, drilled from underground, started in Phase 2 surface-drilled SA pairs started in mid Added new facilities to handle the increased production. Phase E 1 surface-drilled SA pair started in late 1999.

10 Overview (cont d) Overview Produced Water Recycle (PWR) Plant Started up in Increased recycle rates have ultimately reduced available boiler feed water for steam generation. OVAP Vapex Pilot Started up in September 2003 (reported separately). Phases F & Each is a 750m long surface-drilled SA pair, started-up in mid-november Additional surface facilities installed.

11 Overview 2004 Summary Phase F and wells commenced SA production in March. Production from Phases B, and E was shut-in in August, though steam injection continued in an effort to increase steam chamber pressure. Limited production from November through February Abandoned 24 observation and 10 water disposal wells over Phases A and C. One cased well over each phase was retained for possible future use.

17 Phase B Performance Production was shut-in in June 2004, as expected, due to insufficient steam available to maintain chamber pressure through 2003 and into Total days on production in 2004 was 136. Average producing day bitumen rate in 2004 was 77 m 3 /d at a 30% oil cut. Calendar day oil was 28.9 m 3 /d. Total 2004 days on steam injection was 176 at an average producing day rate of 70 T/d and a calendar day rate of 31.4 T/d. Steam shut-in in September. Overall 2004 SOR was 1.09.

18 Phase B Performance (cont d) (cont d) No methane injection in Steam chamber pressure fell to approximately 1,300 kpaa in August, but increased to about 1,400 kpaa by year end. Periodic steam injection could be used to maintain chamber pressure if desired.

Limited production from November through to February Phase calendar day oil production in 2004 was 42.1 m 3 /d and steam injection was 250 T/d, for an overall SOR of 5.94.

24 Phase Performance (cont d) (cont d) Steam chamber pressure fell to about 1,250 kpaa in August, but increased to approximately 1,450 kpaa by year-end. Phase cumulative recovery of 51.7% is based on reserves calculated for two 750m long well pairs. Actual well lengths for 1I = 186m and 1P = 293m. Well lengths for 2I = 748m and 2P = 740m. Oil recovery from Phase equals that of Phase B when compared on a total effective production well length basis.

Limited production resumed in November and continued through February calendar day oil was 33.4 m 3 /d and calendar day steam injection was 187 T/d.

39 Facilities Continued improvements in produced water recycle (PWR) rates through Warm Caustic Softener process continued through All produced water is processed through PWR for silica removal and added filtration. Average water recycle rate in 2004 was 32% (up from 29% in 2003) based on AEUB formula: Recycle % = (Steam Injected Raw Water) Produced Water x 100

40 (cont d) Facilities (cont d) Theoretical maximum with existing equipment is about 60%. Recycle limited due to: Inability to recycle blowdown water (high TS); High TS fouling of SAC resin in boiler feed water conditioning. Increased produced water recycle volumes have caused a reduction in overall available boiler feed water due to incompatibility of recycled water and raw water when combined upstream at softeners. Consequently, about 40% of steam injection capacity was lost in 2003 and early 2004.

41 Facilities (cont d) A new raw water softener was installed and operational by April Mixing of re-cycled produced water with raw water downstream of softening has solved the softening problem. Raw water use increased in 2004 due to: Addition of dedicated raw water filter; Lower produced water volume available for re-use; Maximum steam generation demanded for ongoing operations, re-pressurization and OVAP.
