2009 Responsible Canadian Energy Oil Sands Aggregate Data This is the first Responsible Canadian Energy report using the focused set of key performance indicators and, as with any “first”, the data and reporting will be refined and improved with time. This report will serve as industry’s baseline year, as companies begin to use Responsible Canadian Energy metrics and align their internal management systems. Development of the program is ongoing and future reports will reflect enhancements in both the metrics and the supporting analysis and interpretations. RCE Metrics

Land Management Annual certification or release received*** [number] Production Total [m³OE/d] General Comments 1) Factors to convert different facilities’ products to an oil equivalent volume was based on the product’s energy or heating value to be consistent with CAPP’s Guidance Document for Calculating Greenhouse Gas Emissions (Pub No. 2003-003). 2) Yellow cells indicate calculated KPIs. White cells are absolute values. 3) Data may be impacted by fluctuations in CAPP membership year-over-year. * Indirect CO² Equivalent Emissions was a non-mandatory metric used to calculate GHG intensities. ** NOx became a mandatory metric in 2009. *** There was a CAPP methodology update for 2009 data. Refer to RCE 2010 Metrics Guide.
