   1.                                                   Please expand your
disclosure to provide a general discussion of the technologies used to
                                                        establish the
appropriate level of certainty for material additions to your proved reserves
                                                        estimates. Refer to

   2.                                                   We note your disclosure
of a tabular summary that sets forth the net volumes of proved

that all of the proved undeveloped reserves disclosed as of December

                                                        management resulting in
the conversion of these reserves within five years of initial

3.       If there are material amounts of proved undeveloped reserves as of
December 31, 2021
         that will not be converted to proved developed status within five
years of initial disclosure
         as proved reserves, please expand your disclosure to explain the
reasons for the delay.
         Refer to Item 1203(d) of Regulation S-K and Question 131.03 in the
Compliance and
         Disclosure Interpretations (C&DIs).
Oil and Gas Wells, page 13

4.       Please expand your disclosure of the gross and net oil and gas wells
in which the
         Company owned interests to clarify, if true, that these wells are
productive wells pursuant
         to the disclosure requirement in Item 1208(a) and definition of a
productive well in
         1208(c)(3) of Regulation S-K.

         This comment also applies to your disclosure of    producing    wells
shown in the table of
         results of the Company   s drilling and completion activities on page
14. Refer to the
         disclosure requirements in Item 1205(a) and the definitions in part
(b) of Regulation S-K,
         which clarifies the number of wells drilled refers to the number of
wells completed at any
         time during the year, regardless of when drilling was initiated.

         To the extent that the wells shown in your tabular summaries do not
comply with these
         requirements, please revise your disclosure accordingly.

Supplemental Reserves Information, page 80

5.       Please expand the tabular presentation of your proved developed and
proved undeveloped
         reserves, by individual product type, to additionally provide the net
quantities at the
         beginning of each year shown in the reconciliation, e.g. December 31,
2019. Refer to the
         disclosure requirements pursuant to FASB ASC 932-235-50-4.
6.       We note you identify the reclassification of PUDs to unproved due to
changes in the
         Company   s five-year development plan as the single primary factor
that contributed to the
         revisions in the previous estimates of your total proved reserves for
the years ending
         December 31, 2021 and 2020. Please modify your discussion to identify
all of the factors
         that contributed to the overall change in the line item. If two or
more unrelated factors,
         including offsetting factors, are combined to arrive at the overall
change, please separately
         identify and quantify each factor.

         For example, the disclosure pertaining to revisions in previous
estimates of your reserves
         should identify the changes associated with individual factors, such
as changes in
         commodity prices, costs, property interests, well performance,
unsuccessful and/or
         uneconomic proved undeveloped locations, and previously adopted
development plans.
         Your discussion should provide sufficient details so that the change
in net reserve
         quantities between periods is fully reconciled and explained to comply
with FASB ASC

      This comment also applies to the disclosure of the changes in proved
undeveloped
      reserves presented on page 12. Refer to Item 1203(b) of Regulation S-K.
7.    We also note the change in total proved reserves attributed to extensions
and
      discoveries of 359.4 Bcfe, for the year ended December 31, 2021, appears
to be
      significantly greater than the corresponding change in proved undeveloped
reserves of
      313.2 Bcfe.

      Please expand the discussion of the changes in your total proved reserves
attributed to
      extensions and discoveries to explain the reason(s) for this difference.
Refer to FASB
      ASC 932-235-50-5.
        We remind you that the company and its management are responsible for
