The Company’s production from the Concession is governed by a production sharing agreement (“PSA”) with ETAP, the Tunisian national oil company. All amounts set forth herein relate to CYGAM’s net share, after ETAP participation and taxes, and are reported in Canadian dollars.
Based on a static, volumetric geological model developed by a third party, InSite evaluated the total TT Field to contain an estimated total Discovered Petroleum Initially in Place (“DPIIP”) of 201.7 million barrels, which is unchanged from December 31, 2012.
