As quoted in the press release:
HIGHLIGHTS
Average production increased by 4% in Q2 2017 to 67,240 boe/d as compared to 64,537 boe/d in the prior quarter. The increase was primarily attributable to higher volumes in Canada, France and the US.
Fund flows from operations (“FFO”) for Q2 2017 was $147.1 million ($1.22/basic share(1)), an increase of 3% as compared to $143.4 million ($1.21/basic share) in Q1 2017. Higher FFO was primarily due to higher sales volumes, which more than offset the impact of lower commodity prices. Year-over-year, FFO increased by 16% as compared to Q2 2016 as a result of higher commodity prices and production growth.
We placed an additional 13 (11.5 net) wells on production in Canada during the second quarter, resulting in quarterly production growth of 14% for the Canadian business unit. Our drilling programs in the Mannville, Cardium and Midaleprojects continue to deliver predictable growth and improving cost efficiencies.
