Drilling Activity Summary

Description

Ithaca Energy Inc. of Calgary has flowed first oil from its Jacky Field on Block 12/21c in the North Sea's U.K. sector at the rate of 8,800 bbl. of oil per day. It has also restarted production from the nearby Beatrice Bravo facility after replacing a pipeline and installing a water-injection pipeline to improve oil recovery from the northern end of the field. Jacky and Beatrice production will average around 10,000 bbl. per day of gross oil during 2009. An independent evaluation of reserves shows gross proven and probable field reserves of 5.1 million bbl. of oil. Ithaca's partners in Jacky are Dyas U.K. Ltd. and North Sea Energy, and Ithaca and Dyas own Beatrice Field.
