Operations and Capital Spending Outlook

In 2H 2019, we anticipate capital spending of approximately $38 million across our operating areas. Approximately 53% (or $20 million) of this capital will be invested in Bairoil, primarily to fund the plant expansion project, which is expected to come online in the fourth quarter of 2019. The expansion will provide additional CO2 recycling capacity and allow currently shut-in wells to be turned back online, increasing oil production by approximately 900 Boe/d.

In addition, we anticipate spending approximately $11 million (29% of second half 2019 capital spend) on our Mississippi Lime asset on a capital workover program focused on converting electric submersible pumps to rod-lift, a more efficient artificial lift technology, as well as infrastructure build-out. We believe this investment to be low-risk while maximizing the economic life of producing wells and materially reducing future electricity and maintenance costs associated with these wells. The remaining capital budget will be spent predominantly on well work, facilities and other maintenance activities across our assets in offshore California, East Texas and Eagle Ford.
