RE:Chistina Lake: Now In POST PAYOUT Royalty Status The Corporation's Christina Lake operation reached post-payout status under the Oil Sands Royalty Regulation during the second quarter of 2023 resulting in an increase in the effective royalty rate as expected. The impact of this higher post-payout rate was offset by lower gross revenue relative to the second quarter of 2022 and, as a result, the total royalty burden was consistent across both periods.
The Corporation sold 82% and 79% of its blend sales volumes in the USGC market during the second quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively. Average heavy oil apportionment on the Enbridge mainline system was 1% and 0% in those periods.
