BOE Disclosure. The term barrels of oil
equivalent ("boe") may be misleading, particularly if used in
isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet per
barrel (6Mcf/bbl) of natural gas to barrels of oil equivalence is
based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily
applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value
equivalency at the wellhead. All boe conversions in this news
release are derived from converting gas to oil in the ratio mix of
six thousand cubic feet of gas to one barrel of oil.
