February production was significantly higher due to a number of North Stockyard being returned to production. All of the infill development wells drilled in North Stockyard during 2014 are now in a position to be produced, however given the low oil price, 6 of the wells will remain shut in pending the recovery of the oil price.

All wells in the North Stockyard field are currently being produced at lower than maximum capacity due to pipeline constraints and the weak oil price.

put back into production. BO: Barrels of oil
BOE: Barrels of oil equivalent (gas converted at its heating value) BOPD: Barrels of oil per day
MCF: Thousand cubic feet
BOEPD: Barrels of oil equivalent per day
NA: Not available
