Field Challenges
• Large hydrocarbon column (~2000 ft) with a low Kv/Kh ratio
• Strong differential depletion
• Restricted lateral connectivity
• Loss of reservoir quality with depth and column height
• Complex PVT with compositional gradient
• Oil-wet system/Complex rel-perm
• High near wellbore productivity
• Structural complexity (seismic and sub-seismic scale faults)

Post Production Data Acquisition
Received support and funding for extensive data acquisition
• PLT data acquisition showed better than anticipated productivity throughout the Joanne Sandstone• Lower Joanne had better flow characteristics than initial
anticipated based on logs and initial 3D models

Reservoir Modelling Pre-Production
• Lower Joanne originally modelled using consistently sized channel bodies throughout, with a rock-type model• This, in conjunction with degrading rock
quality at depth, severely impaired modelled deep contribution
• Model required ten-fold increase in permeability to match actual PLT

New History Match Model
• New model has more sheet like bodies in Lower Joanne
• Updated model is able to match PLT
• Connectivity in the deep layers is the key to matching the PLT’s

Current History Match to Production
• Model is run on gas rate control
• It can effectively predict overall GOR trend and post shutdown flush production

Well Intervention Opportunity Example
• Interpretation of the PLT of one of the wells showed a blockage, with no production from the lower Joanne (~50% of 1800 ft column)
• This led to a coiled-tubing intervention to clean out the blockage and reperforate the section
• Result was significant additional production and well EUR
May 9, 201710
• Without proving the lower Joanne had such potential, these well intervention activities would be difficult to justify

Future Opportunities
• Further well intervention opportunities• Other cleanout’s/reperforations under consideration (Q3 2018)

Conclusions
• Concern over the deliverability of Lower Joanne, pre-production
• PLT’s fundamentally changed the way we modelled the reservoir
• Management and JV support of continued data acquisition was critical
• Added production and EUR through interventions
• Data has unlocked potential value, with a low cost
• Future infill drilling / well intervention planned
