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.
Contracted firm volumes. The 2025
contracted daily firm volumes of 400 e3m3/d
(before any provisions for take or pay allowances) represents
contracted volumes based on contract referenced natural gas heating
value. Note that Alvopetro's reported natural gas sales volumes are
prior to any adjustments for heating value of Alvopetro natural
gas. Alvopetro's natural gas is approximately 7.8% higher
than the contract reference heating value. Therefore, to satisfy
the contractual firm deliveries Alvopetro would be required to
deliver approximately 371e3m3/d
(13.1MMcfpd).
