Savanna Sustainability Today I wanted to write about our Value, “Sustainability”, and what it means to me and how I believe it is exemplified at Savanna. I can’t possibly write about everything in this short article, but I will touch on a few things that are top of my mind.
Creating Value for All Creating value for all means we look at all of the groups that have a stake in the success of Savanna; including our employees, partners, investors, customers and the communities we operate in. Our employees are always at the forefront of our minds. I believe we have created a compelling value proposition for our employees to work at Savanna. This includes a very competitive compensation package, career opportunities and a Values based culture. We are excited about the career paths available to our people and we provide the training and work experience to enable our people to maximize their opportunities. Our First Nation partnerships benefit both Savanna and our First Nations Partners. These partnerships allow communities to invest in enduring assets and to realize returns on those investments. As of the end of Q2 2012, about $2.5 million has been distributed to our Partner investors and Savanna has benefited from our strong relationships with Aboriginal communities as well as with oil and gas customers who see the value of this approach. Our investors are all important and are the reason Savanna exists. We recently added a responsible yet meaningful dividend, which allows our shareholders to realize value in their investment during a time when the markets are not giving full value in share prices. Every day we create value for our customers by providing state-of-the-art equipment and excellent staff to deliver industry leading services. The vast majority of Savanna’s drilling rig and workover rig fleet was built post 2003. We boast a comprehensive offering that includes conventional drilling, well servicing and oilfield equipment rentals, giving our customers access to a complete suite of energy services.

Finally, Savanna is proud to support charities in the communities where we work—whether it is supporting our employees in volunteer work through our Charitable Giving policy, or by participating in United Way campaigns, supporting STARS air ambulance, Impact Society or other worthy causes.
Be Adaptive Over the past few years, the drilling market has shifted away from shallow drilling. We spent considerable resources retrofitting our shallow drilling fleet to a deeper platform or modifying it for the shallow drilling market in Australia. Both these efforts have started to prove themselves in Q1 2012 and we exceeded the market’s financial expectations as a result. This ability to adapt will ensure Savanna’s business is sustainable and relevant well into the future.
Value Diversity Savanna is putting a strong focus on leadership and mentorship. In order for Savanna to be successful in the short and long term, our leaders need to lead and mentor people with very diverse backgrounds. Whether they are immigrants, First Nations, women in nontraditional roles, our labour force is changing. We have recognized this and are adapting with new programs to give our leaders the tools to succeed and lead successfully.
Be Profitable Being profitable is important to any company. It is the reason our shareholders and First Nation partners have invested in Savanna. It is the reason our long term customers have the confidence to continue to work with us. It is the reason our employees continue to want to work at Savanna. It is the reason we exist. However, we do have to look at the Sustainability value and where it is ranked. The values of Integrity, Relationships and Excellence are all ranked higher, which means we will not cut corners and deviate from these higher ranked values for the sake of making more money. In fact, we believe if we embrace Integrity, Relationships and Excellence and use these to guide us in
Dwayne LaMontagne, Executive VP and Chief Development Officer our operations to be safe and efficient, to make sound business decisions in essentially everything we do, we will maximize our long term profitability thereby maximizing opportunities for our people and value for our shareholders and partners.
Be Environmentally Responsible When Savanna builds equipment, we put a significant amount of thought, effort and consideration into the design in order to minimize the number of loads to move it, the space needed to operate it, the noise it produces, the disturbance of the land, and the risk of a blowout. The need for us to look at ways to have minimum impact on the environment is not only the responsible thing to do, but is also necessary to preserve the future of the industry and Savanna. The companies that can show they are doing what they can for the environment will enjoy short and long term success.
Develop and Empower People To remain a leader in our industry, we need to develop our people. We have stated many times that Savanna is here for the long term and in order to be successful in the long term we must continuously seek quality people in every division and in every group. We must give them the tools be successful. We must empower them to take responsibility and give them a safe environment to do so. And we must all hold each other accountable for our actions. Over the last few years, Savanna has made great strides in this area and it started with the development of our Vision and Values.
HRMS Update
by Kevin Geddert, Business Analyst It was one small step for man and one giant leap for Savanna at the launch of the Human Resources Management System (HRMS) in Houston. With both Canada and the USA now integrated in one system, the next step will be the inclusion of Australia. Houston, Texas, is known for a number of historic launches with global impact. Just recently Houston played host to another launch that will be quite significant for Savanna Energy Services as we continue to grow. On May 11, 2012 Savanna Energy USA launched a new payroll system. In partnership with SumTotal Systems, Savanna Energy Services is now under one system for HR, Benefits, and Payroll within Canada and the USA. The launch itself was a testament to great teamwork and the working values of Savanna Energy. After months of preparation, the US HR team, members from Canada’s IT & HR teams, and a consultant from SumTotal Systems, gathered in Houston to begin the implementation process. The first few days were expectedly long, but within four days the team successfully cut over data and processed payroll for US Corporate, Drilling, and Well Servicing. The launch
was executed with remarkable speed and accuracy, and lasting relationships were established within the team—it was an outstanding example of what is possible when Savanna’s vision and values shine through. This launch is one more step in the ongoing partnership between HR and IT to align systems and processes across Savanna. Upcoming projects include the release of the TMS time entry system for Savanna USA, the integration of the Australian workforce into the HR system, and development in certification tracking and reporting. Through these and other initiatives, Savanna is making its systems and processes more consistent, effective, and agile to respond as Savanna grows. A heartfelt thanks to the Houston team for their integrity, care, and an unwavering commitment to success that made this launch go so smoothly.

Savanna’s Training Cent re
Training the Rig Crews of Tomorrow Savanna’s Training Centre is offering field employees the opportunity to improve positional, safety and leadership skills. Operational since December 2010, the centre and has trained just over 100 participants. Continued from May’s Rig-n-Dig Each course includes hard (equipment basics and identification) and soft (leadership and building better relationships) skill training as well as hands-on rig training. The courses run for one week with 10 hours of training per day plus the expectation of one to one and a half hours of homework per night. Participant numbers are also kept to between six and eight to provide individual and personalised training. Peter McNamara, Team Lead Technical Training, is adamant that each participant receives individual training and understands the content 110 percent before progressing to the next part of the course. Assisting McNamara with the training is Steve Yarnell, Technical Training Specialist. While McNamara’s experience is quite varied and detailed, he mainly trains employees from the well servicing side, while Yarnell does the bulk of the drilling training. With the growth of the courses and participant numbers, McNamara has found himself requiring the skills of an additional trainer. The benefits of the Training Centre have been many. Not only are participants building a solid skill foundation, or a “generic tool box” as McNamara calls it, they are also receiving position specific and Savanna specific training. The training centres on Savanna’s Vision and Values but also focuses on three primary areas: safety, enhanced job and technical training, and employee

retention. Leadership, mentorship and building relationships are also a strong focus. Another benefit to the centre is the support it provides operations and the ability for employees to be trained in a less stressful and safer rig environment. During the centre’s first year, 57 people went through the training programs. Of these 57 people, 56 are still working for Savanna today. McNamara says the centre has been great for increasing employee retention and hopes retention will continue to increase. Since January of this year, 45 participants have been through the training programs, indicating a strong interest and demand for Savanna specific training. The feedback from the courses has also been exceptionally positive with Rig Managers noticing changes in work and safety attitudes and participants themselves commenting the courses are the best they’ve ever participated in. Dave Hoogendorn, Operations Manager, also comments that he has received very positive feedback from Field Superintendents. “What I see coming out of [the centre] is great stuff—I fully support it,” says Hoogendorn. Future plans for the centre include the addition of in-house loader training (with a third party), first-aid training and hands-on driver instruction for well servicing. The centre has definitely come a long way since late 2010; however both David Yates, Director Organisational Effectiveness, and McNamara say the
success of the centre would not have been possible without the support from Operations, namely Berrecloth and Hoogendorn. McNamara also credits the tremendous support and help from all the staff at the Lacombe office, Ken Bell, Operations Manager and all the staff at Redcliff, Brad Kingston, former VP and GM Savanna Well Servicing, Dale Mohr, Area Operations Manager, Lorne Stang, Field Superintendent, and Phil Eng, Field Superintendent. If anyone would like further information on the courses available at the Lacombe Training Centre, please contact Tony Sloan (780 955 7027) for well servicing or Rani Larios (403 782 0719) or Nicole Clelland (403 782 0719) for drilling. Please keep in mind you do still need to be recommended for a course by either your Rig Manager or Field Supervisor.
Shave You r Lid for a Kid
by Kara Sewell, Contracts Administrator Shaving your head is a gutsy decision for anyone to make, but for 15 year old Mackenzie Sewell, it was just another way to support and raise awareness for kids battling cancer. Mackenzie recently participated in the Kid’s Cancer Care’s ‘Shave Your Lid for a Kid’ program. ‘Shave Your Lid for a Kid’ is Kid’s Cancer Care’s largest fundraising initiative, raising more than $7.7 million since its inception in 1998. This shave program is successful because of you. Each year, hundreds of Albertans like you shave their heads for kids. This bold move shows moral support for the kids who lose their hair during cancer treatments,
while raising money for camps, research, hospitals and scholarship programs for young people affected by cancer. Kid’s cancer impacts over 1,300 Canadian families every year. In Alberta alone, more than 100 kids are diagnosed with Cancer every year and two out of ten of those children lose the battle. During June, my oldest daughter Mackenzie, participated in ‘Shave Your Lid for a Kid’. Mackenzie raised quite a bit of money for the Mackenzie’s pledge to support cancer charity, but her main focus is awareness and support. She is asking we spread the word to our families, friends and colleagues, and that everyone contributes in some way—whether it be by volunteering, making a monetary donation or even shaving your own lid. The Alberta Children’s Hospital can always use volunteers and you would not believe how these little kids who are struggling with such a terrible disease can bring such a huge smile to your face. They make you realize how much we take our lives for granted. Please help Mackenzie with her goal to turn more bad days into good days!!

How you can Help
• Volunteer for camps, community programs or fundraising events • Make a monetary donation • Shave your Lid!

What ’s Happening?
Bonavista Community bbq One of Savanna’s biggest clients, Bonavista Energy, recently held a bbq for the community members of Didsbury, Alberta. Held on the lease of Rig 631, Bonavista organized the day to increase transparency and address any concerns residents may have had regarding drilling activity in the area. Residents were invited to tour the lease and rig as well as enjoy a lunch of steak, baked beans, coleslaw and garlic bread. Many families attended the day along with Savanna employees from Rig 631, Dave Hoogendoorn, Operations Manager, Ken Isaac, Field Superintendent, Dave Lamoureux, Contracts Representative, and CEO and President Ken Mullen, and VP Operations and COO John Cooper.

Well Servicing Rig 45 Solar Halo Thank you to Matt Cummings for sending in this fantastic shot of a solar halo arching over Well Servicing Rig 45. Solar halos are an optical phenomenon produced by ice crystals in the atmosphere. They generally form around light sources such as the sun or the moon and are created in much the same way as rainbows. Rig 45 was working on a re-completion near Caroline, Alberta.

Rig Milestone The crew from Rig 439 were recently treated to an all-expenses paid overnight trip to San Antonio, Texas. Drilling for Shell Oil in the Eagleford Shale in southern Texas, the crew received the trip from Shell for cutting 250,000 feet in nine months in 3,000 foot increments. The crew took their trip while their rig was undergoing a 1,000 hour recertification. Congratulations guys on your hard work and recognition!

Canadian Benef its at a Glance
Heart Health Heart disease is the leading killer of Canadians. There are some risk factors you can’t change, such as family history, age or race; however, there are many important factors you can work on, such as high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Whatever your age, you can work towards a healthier heart. Monitoring High Blood Pressure High blood pressure, or hypertension, is caused by blood pushing too hard against the walls of your blood vessels and it can be a serious medical condition. If your blood pressure levels are above normal, you might be at an increased risk for heart disease and stroke. Your doctor can test your blood pressure levels or you can test them at home. Measuring your blood pressure at home is helpful for two reasons. First, some people get higher than usual blood pressure readings at the doctor’s office, usually because they are a bit nervous. Second, people with hypertension need to monitor their blood pressure regularly. Ask your doctor how often you should monitor your blood pressure. There are many easy to use and accurate at home blood pressure testing monitors on the market. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about whether home monitoring is a good idea for you and which type of monitor would best suit your needs.
Lowering Cholesterol Cholesterol is a fat-based substance found in the bloodstream and the body’s cells. Cholesterol is essential for good health as it builds and repairs cells, protects nerve fibres, and is used to produce certain hormones and bile acids. We get cholesterol through liver production and it is contained in some of the foods we eat, including meat, chicken, fish, eggs and dairy products. A healthy daily intake of cholesterol is about the amount found in a single egg. Most of us take in more than that, which is where problems can begin. When cholesterol moves through our blood, it joins with proteins to make molecules known as lipoproteins. “Bad”

cholesterol, or low-density lipoproteins (LDL), can build up on the walls of blood vessels, where it blocks and damages arteries. This can eventually cause heart disease and stroke. There is also “good” cholesterol, high-density lipoproteins (HDL), which clears away the dangerous type of cholesterol. Although LDL is the one to worry about, getting accurate readings of both kinds is essential. High levels of “bad” cholesterol and low levels of “good” cholesterol mean you could be at risk of heart disease. Many factors determine whether your LDL-cholesterol is high or low, including: • diet • weight • level of physical activity • age (cholesterol levels rise with age) • sex (men have higher cholesterol) • alcohol consumption • heredity • some medical conditions, such as diabetes, hypothyroidism, liver disease, and kidney disease To help lower cholesterol levels: • enjoy a diet high of whole-grain foods, vegetables, fruits and legumes • replace saturated fats with monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats • drink alcohol in moderation • enjoy regular physical activity • don’t smoke • maintain a healthy body weight • take cholesterol medications (if necessary) as prescribed by your doctor You can monitor your cholesterol levels with a home testing kit. These kits require only a single pinprick of blood to test total cholesterol levels and are very accurate.
Heart Attack: Know the Symptoms The key to surviving a heart attack is getting medical help early—nearly half of all deaths due to heart attack occur within three to four hours of the beginning of symptoms. Not everyone experiences the same heart attack symptoms—some older people and women can experience less obvious symptoms. Some heart attacks come on suddenly, but the vast majority start slowly with mild pain and discomfort. Many people experiencing a heart attack are not aware they are having one and may think it’s only heartburn or indigestion. The following are heart attack warning symptoms: • pain or discomfort in the chest, shoulder, arm, back, neck, or jaw that does not go away with rest (in women, pain may be more vague) • pressure, heaviness, fullness, or squeezing in the chest • shortness of breath • nausea and/or vomiting • sweating, or cool and clammy skin • anxiety • denial If you experience any of these warning symptoms, the Heart and Stroke Foundation suggests doing the following: • call 911 (or 000 in Australia) • stop all activity • rest (sit or lie down) • if you are taking nitroglycerin, take your usual dose • if you have chest pain and are not allergic to ASA (acetylsalicylic acid, such as Aspirin), chew and swallow 1 325 mg tablet or 2 81 mg tablets • wait for Emergency Medical Services Acting promptly may save your life!
D&D Prof i le
Barry Moore, D&D Oilfield Rentals Operations Manager, Nisku
Mr. Moore: D&D`s James Bond Neither shaken nor stirred, Barry Moore is no stranger to the oilfield rental business. Joining the team at D&D in April, Moore has been busy establishing D&D`s new Nisku office, leaving very little time for Aston Martins and vodka martinis.
In April of this year, Barry Moore joined the D&D Oilfield Rentals team as the new Operations Manager for Nisku. If you are thinking: “Hold on a minute, D&D doesn’t have a Nisku office,” you would be correct—for the moment anyway. As of July 1, D&D Oilfield Rentals will begin operations out of Nisku, Alberta, with the opening of their brand new location. With over 30 years of experience in the oilfield industry, Moore is well equipped for the challenge of establishing D&D’s new location. Prior to working for D&D, Moore was the General Manager of Decarson Rentals, a subsidiary of Essential Energy Services, for 18 years. In his role as GM, Moore made sure customers received their equipment in a timely and satisfactory manner and managed the daily operations of the business. In addition to Decarson, Moore also worked as a service hand, salesman and product manager for a BOP service company—you could say there isn’t much Moore hasn’t experienced when it comes to the oilfield industry. D&D’s Nisku location will service the northern and western regions of Alberta; however, the location will supply equipment to any part of the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin. As D&D’s Lloydminster location currently serves much of Northern Alberta and Saskatchewan, Nisku will help support Lloydminster as well as D&D’s other rental locations. The plan for growing the Nisku office will include advertising and contacting past customers and companies.
Conveniently located at 702 17th Avenue, Nisku—a stone’s throw away from Savanna Drilling’s office—D&D’s new shop and office is situated on 3.66 acres of land with 9,000 square feet (approximately 830 square metres) of shop and office space. True to D&D’s quality customer service, any piece of equipment will be available for rent from the location; however, the items to be stocked on site will include drill pipe, collars, pipe tubs, BOPs and ram blocks, just to name a few. This equipment will be sourced from local and international suppliers. Additional personnel will also be hired for the shop, office and deliveries. Moore is very excited to be part of this new enterprise for D&D and says he has always enjoyed working in the rental business. “I enjoy the people, the challenge and the pace,” he says. “[I] have met a lot of great people in the industry who have taught me lots of worthwhile things—and some things you just cannot repeat!” Moore has also worked with Ken Goldade, General Manager for D&D (hence where ‘some things you just cannot repeat’ comes from) and other employees of D&D. Moore said this aspect and his interest in rentals was the main draw card to working for D&D. When he’s not busy securing, organising and facilitating a new equipment rental location, Moore likes to play a round of golf or two, bike ride, cook and watch the Prairie tradition of chuckwagon racing.
