The productive zone at Mikwan is comprised of two separate, stacked Viking intervals as shown on the following well logs. The Upper Viking is a transgressive lag conglomerate trending NW-SE. The Lower Viking is the regional coarsening upward shoreface sands and patchy conglomerate.
Current production from the Property is largely from vertical wells, with only one horizontal well drilled on the Company’s lands to date. The following map shows the Viking sands in the area.
As shown on the following well logs, both the Upper and Lower Viking have been completed in the well Forge Huxley 100/08-28-035-24W4/0. The well produced at a rate of 120 bbl/d of oil for first two years and is currently producing at a rate of 20 barrels of oil per day from both the Upper and Lower Viking. Cumulative production from the well to date is approximately 257,000 barrels of oil.
As shown on the following well logs, both the Upper and Lower Viking have been completed in the well Forge ThreeHCk 100/16-09-036-25W4/04. The 16-09 well is currently producing at a rate of 37 barrels of oil per day from both the Upper and Lower Viking. Cumulative production from the well to date is approximately 90,000 barrels of oil.
Mikwan Upside
Harvard has mapped the Viking potential on its land and has determined that there are vertical recompletion candidates, along with potential for further development with horizontal drilling.
The following map shows the location of the Company’s waterflood in the Three Hills Viking V CC Pool compared to offsetting Viking water floods including the Joffre Viking Tertiary Pool (operated by Whitecap Resources Inc.) with a current recovery factor greater than 50% and the Joffre Viking I Pool (Waterflood) operated by Canadian Natural Resources Limited, with a current recovery factor of 35%.

NOTE REGARDING A SAYER PROCESS
On each and every offering brochure generated by Sayer, you will note the sentence “Sayer Energy Advisors does not conduct a “second-round” bidding process; the intention is to attempt to conclude a sale of the Property with the party submitting the most acceptable proposal at the conclusion of the process.” What this means is that Sayer will not go back to multiple parties at the same time after bids are received, asking them all for a second bid. We determine which party submitted the most acceptable proposal and then we attempt to negotiate acceptable terms with that party in a “one-off” situation.
If the process involves a cash sale of a property or company and the party which submitted the most acceptable proposal has met our client’s threshold value, that offer will be accepted. If this proposal does not meet our client’s threshold value, then we will advise that party that the offer is not quite what our client was expecting, and we will ask them to increase the offer. If that offer is not acceptable to our client, we will then move down to the party which submitted the next most acceptable proposal and we will then work with that party to attempt to meet our client’s threshold value.
In the extremely rare circumstance where two or more parties submit virtually identical proposals, we will contact all parties, we will advise them of this situation and we will ask them to submit a revised proposal. Once these are received, we will work with the party which has submitted the most acceptable proposal.If the process involves a cash sale of a property or company and the party which submitted the most acceptable proposal has met our client’s threshold value, that offer will be accepted. If this proposal does not meet our client’s threshold value, then we will advise that party that the offer is not quite what our client was expecting, and we will ask them to increase the offer.
