1 Richard Grohn, P Tech (Eng), President 28 + years in Production and Production Engineering, specializing in artificial lift and well optimization Canada and International Experience

2 GLift started in 2016, 100 % Canadian private entity, locally owned Service includes Gas Lift, GAPL (gas assisted plunger lift) and conventional plunger lift evaluation - design, supply, installation, optimization and maintenance servicing for all applications Providing premium gas lift services in Western Canada Canada s only mobile gas lift service unit to ensure valve setting accuracy and installation success GLift is unique and flexible to ensure project success with expertise and dedication from project scope to production optimization

3 Why Gas Lift? HZ drilled multi-well pads, gas lift is best option A/L applications in the Montney and Duvernay are ideal Avoid Rod Pumping Issues due to high wellbore deviation: Over capitalization, rod buckling and extreme tubing wear Other Rod Pump Challenges: gas interference, debris handling, casing wear due to unanchored tubing

4 GLift Provides Free Gas Lift Evaluation, Design and Flow Modeling

5 Recent Project Activity NW AB Montney Well with Gas Lift Deployment GLift Optimized (Decline Reversed) CGR = 158, WGR = 77 (bbl/mmcf) Start of Gas Lift Qinj = 425 mcfd Critical Lift Rate = 750 mcfd

6 Recent Project Activity NW AB Montney Well with Gas Lift Deployment GLift Optimized (Decline Reversed) CGR = 52, WGR = 136 (bbl/mmcf) Critical Lift Rate = 1250 mcfd Start of Gas Lift

7 Recent Project Activity NW AB Montney Well with Gas Lift Deployment GLift Optimized (Decline Reversed) CGR = 41, WGR = 171 (bbl/mmcf) Start of Gas Lift Critical Lift Rate = 750 mcfd

8 Gas Lift Installed on Initial Completion NW AB Montney Well Decline Low Producer / High WC Gas Lift Application Natural Flow, lasted 5 months prior to unstable flow Gas Lift Optimized, LGR 200 bbl/mmcf, 70 % WC 10 year Forecast, LGR 200 bbl/mmcf, 70 % WC Initial Gas Lift Start-Up, LGR 350 bbl/mmcf, 50 % WC Intermittent gas lift to optimize inflow *Gas Lift installed on initial completion best recommended practice to reduce installation costs and flow interruptions

9 Gas Lift Not Installed NW AB Montney Well Decline High Initial Producer Requires Gas Lift LGR 115 bbl/mmcf, 0 % WC LGR 275 bbl/mmcf, 50 % WC *A/L installed later in well s life requires expensive workover, gas lift on initial completion is more effective, can be started on demand

10 Recent Project Activity Q KAKWA AREA GAS LIFT INSTALLATION IN PROGRESS

11 NW AB Montney Well with Gas Lift Deployment Downhole Profile Toe Up Gas Lift Valve 7 Gas Lift Valve 6 Gas Lift Valve 5 Gas Lift Valve 4 Gas Lift Valve 3 Gas Lift Valve 2 Orifice Valve 1 Packer HZ Lateral TVD Magnified View (Toe Up)

12 Mobile Gas Lift Service Unit GLift offers the only mobile gas lift service unit in Canada, providing premium service with onsite quality control of mandrel and valve installation, at the lowest possible cost

13 Gas Lift Study in July 2017 issue of JPT Technology Focus Report on A/L methods for Shale Wells Declaring gas lift as best method July 2017 SPE Technology Focus: Artificial Lift

14 Side Pocket Mandrel Datasheet Common Size Applications

15 GLift has sourced an equipment provider, meeting all required specifications such as: API 19G1, API 19G2 and ISO 9001:2008 Flow Assurance is GLift s specialty, we ll go the extra mile to ensure all projects are successful during installation and start-up. GLift has the ability and expertise to provide a customized install including downhole tools and surface equipment Consult GLift for any well operational issues related to flow assurance, including well review, well and pipeline flow modeling / de-bottlenecking PRODUCTION ENGINEERING OPTIMIZATION IS GLIFT S PASSION, YOUR SUCCESS IS OUR SUCCESS Contact the GLift team for all your gas or plunger lift needs today: Richard Grohn Richard.Grohn@GLiftenergy.com ( )
