Production volumes are commonly expressed on a barrel of oil equivalent ("BOE") basis whereby natural gas volumes
are converted at a ratio of six thousand cubic feet to one barrel of oil. The intention is to convert oil and natural gas
measurement units into one basis for improved analysis of results and comparisons with other industry participants. The term BOE
may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. The conversion ratio is based on an energy equivalent method and does not
represent an economic value equivalency at the wellhead.
