Notes:

(1)

Gross reserves means Strathcona's working intertest reserves before calculation of royalties, and before consideration of Strathcona's royalty interests.

(2)

Additions due to new wells drilled and booked during the year, and any reserve changes due to enhanced oil recovery.

(3)

Technical revisions also include changes in reserves associated with changes in operating costs, capital costs and commodity price offsets.

(4)

Additions where no reserves were previously booked.

(5)

Changes to reserves volumes due to changes in price forecasts and/or inflation rates.
