Background Section 13 of the ‘Oil, Gas and Salt Resources of Ontario Provincial Operating Standards’ (Operating Standards) mandates that all commercial operators are required to submit an Annual Production Report(s) (Form 8) and an Annual Well Status Report (Form 3) by the 15th of February each year, for the previous calendar year’s production. These reports are to be submitted to the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) at 659 Exeter Road, London, Ontario N6E 1L3. These forms must be completed in duplicate with all required information accurately recorded. Failure to do so could result in further compliance action for submission of inaccurate or incomplete documents and/or obstruction of an inspector under the Oil, Gas and Salt Resources Act (OGSRA), 1990 Section 4. (4)

Definitions Condensate: a low-density, high-API gravity liquid hydrocarbon phase1. Commingled: the production of oil and gas from two or more wells through a common well-bore or flow line without separate measurement of the production of each well. The combined wells must meet the following stipulations:

a) production from a pool averages less than 1m3/d oil per well and 0.3 103m3/d gas per well and all the oil gas interests subject to the commingling have been unitized;

b) where production recovered at surface originates from multiple deviated, horizontal or lateral wells drilled from the wells at surface and all the oil and gas interests affected by the commingling have been unitized, and

c) production of occurs from gas wells located in Lake Erie (Provincial Operating Standards section 6.2.1) Shut-in Pressure: the annual shut-in pressure measurement shall be:

(a) taken with a dead-weight gauge or other equipment acceptable to the Ministry; (b) taken after sufficient shut-in time has passed for reservoir stabilization or 24 hours shut-in time whichever is the lesser; and (c) reported as gauge pressure on Form 8 (Provincial Operating Standards section 6.12.1)

Form 8: Annual Report of Monthly Oil and Gas Production This form is used to report the production of a single well or a group of wells that are commingled together. All gasses and fluids produced from these wells are to be recorded on these forms. Operators must use the current approved version of this form which can be found at the Oil, Gas and Salt Resources Library (OGSRL) website through the following links:

• http://www.ogsrlibrary.com/documents/FORM8.docx • http://www.ogsrlibrary.com/documents/FORM8.pdf • http://www.ogsrlibrary.com/documents/FORM8.xlsx

The Form 8 is an official document of the Ontario Government and must be used for the purpose of reporting monthly production. Upon completion of the form, it must be submitted, in duplicate, and received by the MNRF Petroleum Operation Section (POS) at 659 Exeter Road, London, Ontario, N6E 1L3 no later than February 15th of each year.

at any point during the reporting year. 2. Fee Payable: This is calculated by multiplying the number of wells indicated by the “Annual Fee Per Well” multiplier for that type of well. See above

example (2 natural gas storage x $250.00 Annual Fee per Well = $500.00). 3. This is calculated by adding up the “Fee Payable” fields. See above example ($500.00 + $0 + $0 + $250 + $100 = $850).
