Amendment No. 4 to Registration Statement on Form S-1
Summary Reserve, Production and Operating Data
2022 Activity, page 35
1.Your filing states on pages 35 and 188 that during 2022, “Revisions of previous estimates
consisted of upward revisions to proved developed reserves and proved undeveloped
reserves of 182.9 Bcfe as a result of higher average pricing during 2022 for natural gas,
NGLs and oil.” However, on page F-50, this upward pricing revision of 182.9 Bcfe is
attributed solely to proved developed reserves. Please review and revise your filing so that
all volume changes are consistent and correlate with the reconciliations provided.

3.Your presentation of estimated probable and possible reserves at SEC pricing on pages
185-186 includes multiple lines labeled as “Total estimated proved undeveloped reserves
(MMcfe)”, which, in fact, appear to refer to probable and possible developed and
undeveloped reserves. Please review and revise the labels in this presentation as
necessary to resolve these inconsistencies.
