7G’S GUIDING PRINCIPLE – STAKEHOLDER SERVICE
Stakeholder Differentiation
We believe that companies have only the rights given to them by society. While people have a natural entitlement to basic rights, corporations are an instrument created by society to provide its needs and ought to have no expectation of basic entitlements other than equitable rights with other corporations, including those wholly owned by a person. We recognize that rights, sufficient to build and
- perate an energy project, can be granted and taken away by society. Over the longer term, companies can only expect to thrive if they
serve the legitimate needs of society in which they exist. To thrive, companies must differentiate, rise above the pack, standout as being among the best with all of their stakeholders. At Seven Generations Energy Ltd., we acknowledge this granted entitlement and accept from our stakeholders a duty to thrive and an understanding of the need to differentiate. Specifically, in acceptance of this challenge to differentiate with all stakeholders, we acknowledge:
The need of society for us to conduct our business in a way that protects the natural beauty of the environment and preserves the capacity of the earth to meet the needs
- f present and future generations;
The need of our business partners and infrastructure customers to be treated fairly and attentively; The need of Canada and Alberta for us to obey all regulations and to proactively assist with the formulation
- f new policy that enables our company and our industry
to better serve society; The need of our suppliers and service providers to be treated fairly and paid promptly for equipment and services provided to us and to receive feedback from us that can help them to be competitive and thrive in their businesses; The need of the communities where we operate to be engaged in the planning of our projects and to participate in the benefits arising from them as they are built and operated; The need of our employees to be compensated fairly and provided a safe, healthy and happy work environment including a healthy work life – outside life balance; and The need of our shareholders and capital providers to have their investment managed responsibly and ethically and to earn strong returns.
We see ourselves as being in the service business, serving the needs of our stakeholders. We seek satisfaction for all stakeholders. Differentiation is imperative. We support an open and competitive business environment, recognizing in the competitive world that we envision, only those who best serve their stakeholders can expect the support required to survive for the longer term.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
General Advisory The information contained in this presentation does not purport to be all- inclusive or contain all information that readers may require. Prospective investors are encouraged to conduct their own analysis and review of Seven Generations Energy Ltd. (“Seven Generations”, “7G”, “VII”, the “company” or the “Company”) and of the information contained in this presentation. Without limitation, prospective investors should read the record of publicly filed documents relating to the Company, consider the advice of their financial, legal, accounting, tax and other professional advisors and such other factors they consider appropriate in investigating and analyzing the Company. An investor should rely only on the information provided by the Company and is not entitled to rely on parts of that information to the exclusion of others. The Company has not authorized anyone to provide investors with additional
- r
different information, and any such information, including statements in the media about Seven Generations, should not be relied upon. In this presentation, unless
- therwise indicated, all dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars, and
per share amounts are presented on a diluted basis. An investment in the securities of Seven Generations is speculative and involves a high degree of risk that should be considered by potential investors. Seven Generations’ business is subject to the risks normally encountered in the
- il and gas industry and, more specifically, the shale and tight liquids-rich
natural gas sector of the oil and natural gas industry, and certain other risks that are associated with Seven Generations’ stage of development. An investment in the Company’s securities is suitable only for those purchasers who are willing to risk a loss of some or all of their investment and who can afford to lose some or all of their investment. Non-IFRS Measures Advisory In addition to using financial measures prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), references are made in this presentation to “available funding”, “adjusted funds flow per diluted share”, “adjusted funds flow per boe”, “operating netback” (also referred to herein as “netback”), “adjusted EBITDA”, “return on capital employed” (or “ROCE”), “EBITDA”, “adjusted working capital”, “marketing income”, “cash return on invested capital” (or “CROIC”), “capital efficiency” and “free cash flow”, which are measures that do not have any standardized meaning as prescribed by IFRS. Accordingly, the Company’s use of such terms may not be comparable to similarly defined measures presented by other entities and comparisons should not be made between such measures provided by the Company and by other companies without also taking into account any differences in the way that the calculations were prepared. For further details about “available funding”, “adjusted funds flow per boe”, “operating netback”, “adjusted EBITDA”, “return on capital employed” (or “ROCE”), “adjusted working capital”, “marketing income”, “cash return on invested capital” (or “CROIC”) and reconciliations between these measures and the most directly comparable measures under IFRS, see “Non- IFRS Financial Measures” in the Company’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis dated November 6, 2019, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, which is available on the SEDAR website at www.sedar.com. The 2018 EBITDA figure ($1,815 million) that is referenced for 7G on the slide titled “7G’s Track Record of Industry Leading Returns” was derived from 2018 Net income ($440 million), after adding back the effects of interest ($127 million), taxes ($233 million), DD&A ($847 million), FX Gain/Loss ($166 million) and loss on associate ($2 million). Adjusted funds flow per diluted share and adjusted funds flow per boe were calculated by dividing adjusted funds flow by the Company’s diluted share count and total barrel of oil equivalent sales volumes, respectively. Capital efficiency represents total drilling, completion, equipping and tie-in costs divided by total average first-year daily production on a boe basis. For additional information about “adjusted funds flow” and “net debt”, which are measures that have been prepared in accordance with IFRS, please see note 17 of the company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 and note 14 of the company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, available on the SEDAR website.

the Company is conducting exploration and development activities, and the access, economic, regulatory and physical limitations to which the Company may be subject from time to time; the impact of competition on the Company; and the Company’s ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms. Except where otherwise indicated, the adjusted funds flow, free cash flow and adjusted EBITDA forecasts referenced in this presentation were calculated based upon the assumptions outlined on the slide titled “2020 Capital Budget & Guidance” and the following commodity pricing assumptions: US$50.00/bbl WTI, US$2.50/MMbtu NYMEX/HH and 0.75 USD/CAD FX. NGLs as % of WTI: C3 26%, C4 30%, C5 – $5 USD/bbl differential. AECO Basis US$1.15/MMbtu. Operating cost assumptions reflect recent actual cost trends with adjustments to address planned activity levels. Royalty rate assumptions were calculated using a price range of US$50-US$60/bbl WTI, net of credits as of December 31, 2019 and projected C* for new wells to be drilled in 2020. Royalty rate assumptions are net of expected gas cost allowance investments in gas plants. G&A cost assumptions reflect recent actuals and expectations for a staff count and information technology investments in 2020.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Net debt forecasts were calculated by adding the principal of the unsecured notes to the forecasted principal of the Company’s credit facility, less forecast adjusted net working capital. Assumptions made in the calculations of forecasted economics, including forecasted NPVs, IRRs, price sensitivities, commodity prices and recovery factors reflect cost assumptions that are based upon recent actual cost trends with adjustments to address planned activity levels. Royalty rates were calculated using a price range of US$50-US$65/bbl, net of credits as
- f Dec.31/18 and projected C* for new wells drilled or to be drilled in 2019.
Royalty rates were calculated net
- f
expected gas cost allowance investments in gas plants. G&A costs used in the forecasts reflect recent actuals and expectations for a larger staff count and IT investments in 2019. An assumption has also been made that further well delineation activities will confirm management’s estimates regarding reservoir quality of its properties that fall outside of the Company’s core development areas. With respect to the estimated number of drilling locations or potential drilling
- pportunities that are referenced herein, various assumptions have been
made. These assumptions are described under the heading “Note Regarding Potential Drilling Opportunities” below.

Presentation of Oil and Gas Information Estimates
- f
the Company’s reserves, contingent resources and prospective resources contained herein are based upon the reports dated February 27, 2019 prepared by McDaniel & Associates Consultants Ltd. (“McDaniel”), the Company’s independent qualified reserves evaluator, as at December 31, 2018 (the “McDaniel Reports”). The estimates of reserves, contingent resources and prospective resources provided in this presentation are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves, contingent resources and prospective resources will be recovered. Actual reserves, contingent resources and prospective resources may be greater than or less than the estimates provided in this in this presentation and the differences may be material. There is no assurance that the forecast price and cost assumptions applied by McDaniel in evaluating Seven Generations’ reserves, contingent resources and prospective resources will be attained and variances could be material. There is no certainty that any portion of the prospective resources will be
- discovered. If discovered, there is no certainty that it will be commercially
viable to produce any portion of the prospective resources. There is also uncertainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any part of the contingent resources. This presentation includes estimates
- f
contingent resources and prospective resources, as at December 31, 2018, that have been risked by McDaniel for the probability of loss or failure in accordance with the COGE
- Handbook. For contingent resources, the risk component relating to the
likelihood that an accumulation will be commercially developed is referred to as the chance of development. Contingent resources in the “development pending” project maturity subclass have been assigned by McDaniel, as at December 31, 2018, in the upper, middle and lower intervals of the Montney formation in certain parts of the Nest 1, Nest 2, Nest 3, Rich Gas and Wapiti areas within the Kakwa River Project. The COGE Handbook indicates that it is appropriate to categorize contingent resources in the development pending project maturity subclass where resolution of the final conditions for development are being actively pursued and there is a high chance of
- development. Approximately 98% of the contingent resources attributed to
the Company’s properties by McDaniel, as at December 31, 2018, have been classified as “development pending” and the balance of the contingent resources have been classified as “development unclarified”. Contingent resources in the “development unclarified” project maturity subclass have been assigned by McDaniel, as at December 31, 2018, in the Wilrich formation within the Cretaceous stack across the Project area. The COGE Handbook indicates that it is appropriate to categorize contingent resources in the “development unclarified” project maturity subclass when the evaluation is incomplete and there is ongoing activity to resolve any risks or
- uncertainties. There is uncertainty that it will be commercially viable to
produce any portion of the contingent resources.
31
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Prospective resources have both an associated chance of discovery and a chance
- f
development. Not all exploration projects will result in
- discoveries. The chance that an exploration project will result in the
discovery of petroleum is referred to as the chance of discovery. For an undiscovered accumulation, the chance of commerciality is the product of two risk components - the chance of discovery and the chance of
- development. The prospective resources associated within the Kakwa
River Project have been sub-classified as “prospect” by McDaniel, which the COGE Handbook defines as a potential accumulation within a play that is sufficiently well defined to present a viable drilling target. Approximately 40% of the prospective resources would be expected to be upper and middle Montney wells in the Wapiti and Rich Gas areas, and approximately 58% would be expected to be lower Montney wells across the Project area and approximately 2% would be expected to be within the Wilrich formation within the Cretaceous stack across the Project area. The evaluation of the risks and the risking process relevant to the contingent resources and prospective resources estimates that are contained herein are described in the AIF, which is available on the SEDAR website. The reserves and resources estimates contained in this presentation should be reviewed in connection with the AIF, which contains important additional information regarding the independent reserve, contingent resource and prospective resource evaluations that were conducted by McDaniel and a description of, and important information about, the reserves and resources terms used in this presentation. Note Regarding Industry Metrics This presentation includes certain industry metrics, including barrels of oil equivalent (“boes”) and GHGe or CO2e, which do not have standardized meanings or standard methods of calculation and therefore such measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies and should not be used to make comparisons. Such metrics have been included herein to provide readers with additional information to evaluate the Company’s performance; however, such measures are not reliable indicators
- f
the future performance
- f
the Company and future performance may not compare to the performance in previous periods. Unless otherwise specified, all production is reported on the basis of the company’s working interest (operating and non-operating) before the deduction of royalties payable. Seven Generations has adopted the standard of 6 Mcf:1 bbl when converting natural gas to boes. Condensate and other NGLs are converted to boes at a ratio of 1 bbl:1 bbl. Boes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf: 1 bbl is based roughly on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the Company’s sales point. Given the value ratio based on the current price of oil as compared to natural gas and NGLs is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6 Mcf: 1 bbl and 1 bbl: 1 bbl, respectively, utilizing a conversion ratio at 6 Mcf: 1 bbl for natural gas and 1 bbl: 1 bbl for NGLs, may be misleading as an indication of value. The GHGe or CO2e estimates for 7G that are provided herein were calculated by the company. For the 2018 reporting year, based on 2017 performance, 7G’s carbon intensity of 0.0136 tonnes of CO2e per boe, the lowest carbon intensity estimate compared to six peer companies, was calculated by 7G. 7G quantified and reported its GHG emissions using what is referred to as the “operational control” approach. 7G’s deemed
- rganizational boundary included its corporate offices and all natural gas
extraction and processing facilities (including well pads). 7G elected to report its Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions and not to report its Scope 3 GHG
- emissions. For the purposes of 7G’s GHG emissions reporting: (i) Scope 1
emissions were defined as direct emissions from GHG sources that 7G
- wned or controlled (including, but not limited to, emissions from stationary
equipment, mobile combustion, and process emissions and fugitive emissions); (ii) Scope 2 emissions were defined as indirect GHG emissions that resulted from 7G’s consumption of energy in the form of purchased electricity; and (iii) Scope 3 emissions were defined as 7G’s indirect emissions other than those covered in Scope 2, including from all sources not owned or controlled by 7G, but which occurred as a result of 7G’s activities. Notably, 7G’s drilling and completion activities in the relevant periods were conducted by third parties and, consequently, those activities were deemed to be Scope 3. 7G retained Brightspot Climate Inc. to support the quantification of its 2018 GHG emissions. Emissions for all facilities were quantified in accordance with the methodologies specified in Alberta’s Carbon Competitiveness Incentive Regulation (“CCIR”) and Specified Gas Reporting Regulation (“SGRR”), and Environment and Climate Change Canada’s Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reporting Program, as applicable. Measured quantities, such as fuel volume, fuel carbon content, flare volumes, venting volumes, fugitive volumes, and electricity consumption were used, where metered data was available. Emission factors from published government sources were applied to the calculations. Third party verification was conducted by Millennium EMS Solutions. This verification was completed in accordance with the ISO 14064:3 standard and the requirements of CCIR. Note Regarding Development Area Forecast Economics and Type- Curves Type-curves were used to develop the development area forecast economics shown in this presentation. The type-curves were prepared by internal qualified reserves evaluators from 7G. For each of the type-curves, wells with significant deviation in completions technique, or that had mechanical issues
- r
parent-child interactions between wells, were excluded from the analysis to avoid perceived outlier effects. Non- producing days were removed from the producing time plotted in the type-
- curves. When type-curves are used for budgeting purposes, facility
constraints, parent-child well interactions, mechanical issues, expected downtime for concurrent operations, facility outages and gas processing shrink adjustment factors are then accounted for, but those assumptions and adjustments are not reflected in the type-curves themselves or in the forecast economics that have been provided in this presentation. All data reflected in the type-curves is raw wellhead data. Condensate rates have been adjusted downwards in the type-curves to account for assumed shrinkage due to entrainment of NGLs in the wellhead separator liquid, as directly measured. This correction is the result of an empirical equation based upon internal observations of sample data. Raw gas has not been adjusted and includes significant NGLs in the gas stream. The referenced type-curves were prepared using a combination of statistical approaches to early-life production from the type-wells selected, matched to volumetric estimates attributable to properties in the Company’s Nest 1, Nest 2 (North, South, East, West) and Nest 3 areas, respectively, based upon the Company’s understanding of the geology and reservoir parameters at the time the type curves were developed. Early-life statistics use data from the Nest 1, Nest 2 (East) and Nest 3 type-wells, adjusted for stage count and lateral length on a producing rate versus time basis, a cumulative volume versus time basis, and a producing rate versus cumulative volume basis, to ensure a reasonable fit. For Nest 2 (North, South, West) recent high intensity completion wells were selected that are adjacent to undeveloped acreage, with no adjustment made for stage count
- r lateral length.
The Nest 1 type-curve that was referenced is the same type-curve that was provided in the prospectus filed in connection with the Company’s IPO. That type-curve is based upon production data from wells that were drilled in 2014 and prior years and reflects a 2,200 m lateral well length and a 28 stage, 120 tonnes of proppant per stage completion design, utilizing N2 foam as the fracturing fluid. 11 wells drilled in the upper and middle Montney formation provide the statistical basis for the Nest 1 type-curve. The various Nest 2 type-curves referenced were created in July 2018 based upon production data from the wells that are described below: These Nest 2 wells were used because they are considered to be reflective
- f expected future performance, excluding effects from parent-child well
interactions, unusually tight spacing, facility constraints, downtime and mechanical failures. Historical tonnage and stage counts may not be representative of go-forward completion designs. The Nest 2 (South) type curve is based on production data from wells drilled in 2016-2017 that were landed at various depths in the top 125 m (average 67m) from the top of the Montney formation and utilized slickwater completions. The Nest 2 (North) type curve is based on production data mostly from wells drilled in 2016-2017 with varying horizontal landing depths from 35m to 110m (average 79 m) from the top of the Montney formation and were completed with slickwater completions. The Nest 2 (West) type curve is based on production data from wells completed in 2017 that were landed from 20m to 95m from the top of the Montney formation and were completed with slickwater completions. Type-wells in the Nest 2 (East) area were drilled in 2014 and 2015 using N2 foam as the fracturing fluid and were initially facility constrained. To develop the type-curve for the region, production rates from the unconstrained period of flow were extrapolated to create an estimated early flow profile, while taking into account cumulative production volumes, and then the results were compared to type-wells in the surrounding areas to ensure for consistency. The Nest 3 type-curve was created in the fourth quarter of 2017. It is based upon production data from wells that were drilled in 2017 and prior years and reflects a 2,500 m lateral well length and a 40 stage, 200 tonnes of proppant per stage completion design, utilizing slickwater as the fracturing
- fluid. 4 wells drilled in the upper and middle Montney formation provide the
statistical basis for the Nest 3 type-curve.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
The Company has opted to rely upon the type-curve forecasts that have been prepared by internal qualified reserves evaluators from 7G in this presentation, rather than the type-curves prepared by McDaniel, because the internally generated type-curves are what the Company has used for capital budgeting and corporate planning purposes. Type-curves do not have any standardized preparation methodology or meaning and readers are cautioned that the type-curves and forecast development area economics shown in this presentation may not be comparable to similar information that is presented by other companies. Actual results may vary significantly from the Company’s forecasts and estimates. The Company’s oil, natural gas and NGL reserves, contingent resources and prospective resources, as at December 31, 2018, were evaluated by McDaniel in the McDaniel Reports. In the McDaniel Reports, McDaniel assigned proved plus probable reserves to approximately 72% of the Nest 1 sections evaluated; best estimate contingent resources to approximately 28% of the Nest 1 sections evaluated; proved plus probable reserves to approximately 90% of the Nest 2 sections evaluated; best estimate contingent resources to approximately 10% of the Nest 2 sections evaluated; proved plus probable reserves to approximately 55% of the Nest 3 sections evaluated; best estimate contingent resources to approximately 45% of the Nest 3 sections evaluated; proved plus probable reserves to approximately 19% of the Wapiti sections evaluated; best estimate contingent resources to approximately 60%
- f
the Wapiti sections evaluated and best estimate prospective resources to approximately 21%
- f the Wapiti sections evaluated.
On the slide titled “Summary of Premium Single Well Economics & Other Inventory”, the following pricing assumptions were used to develop the economic forecasts shown: US$55.00/bbl WTI, US$3.00/mcf NYMEX/HH and 0.76 USD/CAD FX. NGLs as % of WTI: Alberta - C3 25%, C4 35%, C5 91%, Chicago - C3 35%, C4 45%, C5 95%. Chicago Basis US$0.15/mcf to NYMEX/HH and AECO Basis US$1.75/mcf to NYMEX/HH. Chicago transport US$1.20/mcf and AECO transport US$0.25/mcf. Variable liquids
- pex C$5.00/bbl and Variable gas opex C$0.60/mcf. Fixed well operating
cost = $20,000/mo. NGL recoveries and shrinkage factors reflected in the analysis are based on the company’s best estimate of the liquids to be extracted at the Pembina Kakwa River Plant and at 7G’s wholly owned plants in Alberta, as well as the liquids to be processed by Aux Sable at its facilities near Chicago, Illinois pursuant to the terms of the rich gas premium agreement between 7G and Aux Sable, which depends upon an assumed heating value and has been assumed to extend for the entire productive life of the wells. The forecast economics reflected are half-cycle economics and include
- nly the cost to drill, complete, tie and equip wells. The forecasts do not
take into account certain other costs that would be required to construct infrastructure, including Super Pads, central processing facilities, regional gathering facilities, condensate stabilization facilities and
- ther
infrastructure, nor do they take into account land acquisition costs, corporate overhead (G&A) expenses, financing costs or corporate taxes. Such forecast economics are intended to represent the marginal return of a single well investment on an existing Super Pad. No adjustments were made for expected downtime or facility constraints, so the forecasts present an idealistic view of results that could be achieved in the absence of additional infrastructure costs, operational challenges or downtime. Actual results will differ from the forecasts for the reasons described above and because of the risks and risk factors that are described in the “Forward- Looking Information Advisory” set forth above. NPV figures have been calculated using a 10% annual discount factor. Note Regarding Potential Drilling Opportunities The references to drilling locations or potential drilling opportunities that are contained herein were prepared by internal qualified reserves evaluators from Seven Generations, as at December 31, 2018. Some of the locations have already been drilled as part of the Company’s 2019 development program. Of the 480 potential drilling locations or drilling opportunities that were estimated to be contained within the company’s Nest 1 area, as at December 31, 2018, 64% were attributed proved plus probable reserves and 36% were attributed best estimate contingent resources in the McDaniel Reports. Of the 615 potential drilling locations or drilling opportunities that were estimated to be contained within in the company’s Nest 2 area, as at December 31, 2018, 78% were attributed proved plus probable reserves and 22% were attributed best estimate contingent resources in the McDaniel Reports. Of the 190 potential drilling locations or drilling opportunities that were estimated to be contained within in the company’s Nest 3 area, as at December 31, 2018, 68% were attributed proved plus probable reserves, and 32% were attributed best estimate contingent resources in the McDaniel Reports. For the purposes of estimating potential drilling locations or drilling
- pportunities, the company has assumed well spacing of 12 wells per
section and a lateral well lengths of 2,310 metres based upon industry practice and internal review. The anticipated well spacing and lateral well length is expected to change over time as technology and the Company’s understanding of the reservoir changes. For the purposes of the estimates, the Company has assumed that natural gas production will be delivered into the Alliance Pipeline or NGTL system and that liquids will be extracted at the Pembina Kakwa River plant, at 7G’s wholly-owned plants in Alberta and at Aux Sable’s facilities near Chicago, Illinois. The number of future drilling opportunities described for the “Nest Area Lower Montney”, “Cretaceous”, “Wapiti” and “Rich Gas” areas on the slide titled “Summary of Premium Single Well Economics & Other Inventory” represents the number of locations estimated to be attributed to those areas by McDaniel in the McDaniel reports. For additional information refer to the AIF, which is available on the SEDAR website. There is no certainty that the company will drill any of the identified drilling
- pportunities or drilling locations and there is no certainty that such
locations will result in additional reserves, resources or production. The drilling locations on which the company will actually drill wells, including the number and timing thereof, will be dependent upon the availability of funding, regulatory approvals, seasonal restrictions, oil and natural gas prices, costs, actual drilling results, additional reservoir information that is
- btained, and other factors. While certain of the estimated undeveloped
drilling locations have been de-risked by drilling existing wells in relative close proximity to such locations, many of the locations are further away from existing wells, where management has less information about the characteristics of the reservoir and therefore there is more uncertainty as to whether wells will be drilled in such locations, and if wells are drilled in such locations there is more uncertainty that such wells will result in additional oil and natural gas reserves, resources or production. The competitor flow test and initial production history shown on the slide titled “Nest 1 Development – Ultra-Rich Condensate Region” has been
- btained by 7G from public sources as at the date of this presentation. The
information was provided to such public sources by 7G’s competitors and 7G is unable to confirm if the information is accurate or was provided in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements. All of the competitor wells referenced were drilled in the Montney formation. The information is considered to be relevant because the geology of properties owned by 7G are considered to be similar to the competitor properties that are
- referenced. Significant production or pressure decline was noted in the data
for the flowtests and early production history, and pressure transient analysis and well test interpretation had not yet been carried out at the time the data was posted. As such, the information should be considered to be preliminary until further analysis and interpretation has been completed. The Nest 1 well that is described on that same slide was drilled in the middle interval of the Montney formation in the company’s Nest 1 area. The results have been obtained during a 60 day initial flow period (includes completions flowback and flow through permanent facilities). The average gas production rate observed to date is 3,136 Mcf/d and the average condensate production rate observed to date is 1,375 bbl/d. Cumulative gas production has been 188 MMcf, cumulative condensate production has been 82,505 bbls and cumulative produced water has been 59,082 bbls. Gas, condensate, and water rates ramped up over a period of 12 days. Gas maintained a plateau rate of about 4,100 Mcf/d) while condensate gradually declined as expected. Tubing pressure reached a maximum of 9,300 KPa (1,350 psi) after 5 days of flow and gradually decreased to about 3,500 KPa (510 psi), consistent with a relatively high liquid/gas ratio of about 750 bbl/MMcf. Pressure transient analysis and well test interpretation has not yet been conducted for this well. The “successful vertical test” referenced on the slide titled “Lower Montney Emerging Development Potential” reflects a production test conducted by the Company in the lower Montney formation. The full duration of the test was 5 days with 4.2 days of flowing hydrocarbons (water was produced for the first 1.2 days). During the test a total of 11,436 bbls of load fluid was also recovered. Significant production and pressure decline was noted during the test and pressure transient analysis and well test interpretation has not been carried out. Such data should be considered to be preliminary until further analysis and interpretation has been completed. The lower Montney wells drilled on “triple-stack” pads shown on the slide titled “Lower Montney – Emerging Development Potential” were drilled in the Nest 2 area. The initial and/or early production rates described in this presentation are not necessarily indicative of longer-term performance or ultimate recovery.
33
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Oil and Gas Definitions “best estimate” is a classification of estimated resources described in the “COGE Handbook” or “COGEH”, which is considered to be the best estimate of the quantity that will actually be recovered. It is equally likely that the actual quantities recovered will be greater or less than the best
- estimate. Resources in the best estimate case have a 50% probability that
the actual quantities recovered will equal or exceed the estimate. “COGE Handbook” means the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook maintained by the Society of Petroleum Evaluation Engineers (Calgary Chapter), as amended from time to time. “contingent resources” are those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from known accumulations using established technology or technology under development, but which are not currently considered to be commercially recoverable due to one or more
- contingencies. Contingencies may include factors such as economic,
environmental, social, political factors and regulatory matters, a lack of markets or a prolonged timetable for development. It is also appropriate to classify as contingent resources the estimated discovered recoverable quantities associated with a project in the early evaluation stage. “gross” means: (i) in relation to the Company’s interest in production, reserves, contingent resources or prospective resources, its “company gross” production, reserves, contingent resources
- r
prospective resources, which are the Company’s working interest (operating or non-
- perating) share before deduction of royalties and without including any
royalty interests of the Company; (ii) in relation to wells, the total number of wells in which a company has an interest; and (iii) in relation to properties, the total area of properties in which the Company has an interest. “liquids” refers to oil, condensate and other NGLs. “net” means: (i) in relation to the Company’s interest in production or reserves, the Company’s working interest (operating or non-operating) share after deduction of royalty obligations, plus the Company’s royalty interest in production or reserves; (ii) in relation to the Company’s interest in wells, the number of wells obtained by aggregating the Company’s working interest in each of its gross wells; and (iii) in relation to the Company’s interest in a property, the total area in which the Company has an interest multiplied by the working interest owned by the Company. “probable reserves” are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves. It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the estimated proved plus probable reserves. “prospective resources” means quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations by application of future development projects. Prospective resources have both an associated chance of discovery and a chance of development. “proved reserves” are those reserves that can be estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable. It is likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the estimated proved reserves. “reserves” are estimated remaining quantities of oil and natural gas and related substances anticipated to be recoverable from known accumulations, as of a given date, based on: (i) analysis of drilling, geological, geophysical and engineering data; (ii) the use of established technology; and (iii) specified economic conditions, which are generally accepted as being reasonable. Reserves are classified according to the degree of certainty associated with the estimates. “risked” means adjusted for the probability of loss or failure in accordance with the COGE Handbook. “undeveloped reserves” are those reserves expected to be recovered from known accumulations where a significant expenditure (for example, when compared to the cost of drilling a well) is required to render them capable of
- production. They must fully meet the requirements of the reserves
classification (proved, probable) to which they are assigned. References in this presentation to “2P reserves”, “contingent resources” and “prospective resources”, refer to gross proved plus probable reserves, gross best estimate contingent resources and gross best estimate prospective resources, respectively. Further Economic Assumptions For Nest 1: NGL recoveries and shrinkage factors are based on the company’s best estimate of the liquids to be extracted at the Pembina Kakwa River Plant and at 7G’s wholly owned plants in Alberta, as well as the liquids to be processed by Aux Sable at its facilities near Chicago, Illinois pursuant to the terms of the rich gas premium agreement between 7G and Aux Sable, which depends upon an assumed heating value and has been assumed to extend for the entire productive life of the wells. Nest 1 2018 estimates represent an average of Nest 1 pads brought on- stream in 2018. For a description of the methodology used and the assumptions made by the company in preparing the type-curve forecasts that were used to develop the forecast economics shown on the slide titled “Nest 1 Development – Ultra-Rich Condensate Region” and for important additional information, please see the “Note Regarding Development Area Forecast Economics and Type-Curves” and the “Note Regarding Potential Drilling Opportunities” above. The forecasts for Nest 1 reflect half-cycle economics and include only the cost to drill, complete, tie and equip wells. The forecasts do not take into account certain
- ther
costs that would be required to construct infrastructure, including Super Pads, central processing facilities, regional gathering facilities, condensate stabilization facilities and
- ther
infrastructure, nor do they take into account land acquisition costs, corporate overhead (G&A) expenses, financing costs or corporate taxes. These forecast economics are intended to represent the marginal return of a single well investment on an existing Super Pad. No adjustments have been made for expected downtime or facility constraints, so the forecasts present an idealistic view of results that could be achieved in the absence
- f additional infrastructure costs, operational challenges or downtime.
Actual results will differ from these forecasts for the reasons described above and because of the risks and risk factors that are described in the “Forward-Looking Information Advisory” above. Other Definitions Throughout this presentation, 7G uses the terms “sustaining capital” and “discretionary capital”. These measures do not have any standardized meaning and therefore should not be used to make comparisons to similar measures presented by other entities. “Sustaining capital” refers to capital expenditures including drilling, completions, equipping, tie-in and other expenditures required to maintain production from existing facilities at current levels. “Discretionary capital” refers to capital expenditures that are not required to maintain production from existing facilities at current levels, including but not limited to delineation, infrastructure, value-enhancing projects, and production growth.
