Delhi Field and NGL Plant Update

The Delhi field continues to perform very well and production has increased again this quarter as a result of continuing pattern optimization and conformance projects. The preliminary estimate of gross production from the field is 7,580 barrels of oil per day ("BOPD") for the quarter, or 1,986 BOPD net to the Company, which represents a 2.8% sequential increase from the prior quarter. Production during the quarter consisted entirely of crude oil.

The natural gas liquids ("NGL") recovery plant was completed in late October, as previously reported. The plant was in startup and testing operations during the remainder of the quarter and commenced commercial production at the end of December. The first sales of NGL products occurred in mid-January. Production has been ramping up during an optimization period this month and full production is expected in the next few weeks.
