Additional details regarding the stochastic analysis are included within the Tables section of the report.<br />

Additional well logs, core data and seismic data would be useful to further delineate the geology and<br />

increase certainty for some parameters. Further to that, a pilot program and development of an<br />

appropriate enhanced recovery scheme is necessary.<br />

Cautionary statements<br />

The range of estimated undiscovered PIIP has not been adjusted for risk based on the chance of<br />

development. There is no certainty that pools will be developed or, if they are developed, there is no<br />

certainty as to the timing of such development.<br />

The effect of gas and possible water zones on any particular recovery scheme in will not likely be known<br />

until pilot testing is underway or completed. Any possible bitumen recovery on ORI leases would not<br />

necessarily be economically feasible.<br />

The wide ranges of parameters and volumes in the <strong>Nisku</strong> evaluation are a direct result of numerous<br />

uncertainties including the lack of well log control to the base of the target interval and uncertainty due to<br />

geological heterogeneity observed in this and other bituminous carbonate pools globally. The efficiency<br />

of any enhanced recovery scheme is unknown in carbonates such as the <strong>Nisku</strong>.<br />
