CAUTIONARY STATEMENT
Forward Looking Statements
This presentation contains certain forwardlooking information and statements within the meaning of applicable securities laws. The use of any of the words "expect", "anticipate", "continue", "estimate", "may", "will", "project",
"should", "believe", "plans", "intends, forecast and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking information or statements. In particular, but without limiting the forgoing, this presentation contains forward-
looking information and statements pertaining to the following: the volumes and estimated value of Crew's oil and gas reserves; resource estimates and volumes in respect of Crews Montney lands in northeast British
Columbia (NEBC); the volume and product mix of Crew's oil and gas production; production estimates including 2017 forecast average and exit productions and production per share growth; the recognition of significant
resources in the Montney region of NEBC; future oil and natural gas prices and Crew's commodity risk management programs; future liquidity and financial capacity; future results from operations and operating metrics;
forecast 2017 net debt; forecast 2017 cash flow and year end bank debt; future costs, expenses and royalty rates; future interest costs; the exchange rate between the $US and $Cdn; future development, exploration,
acquisition and development activities, infrastructure build out and related capital expenditures and the timing thereof; the amount and timing of capital projects; operating costs; the total future capital associated with
development of reserves and resources; methods of funding our capital program including possible non-core asset divestitures; and forecast reductions in well costs and operating expenses. In this presentation reference is
made to the Company's long range Montney growth scenario and economic analysis. All information derived therefrom are not estimates or forecasts of metrics that may actually be achieved. Such information reflects
internal projections used by management for the purposes of making capital investment decisions and for internal long range planning and budget preparation. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on same.
The recovery, reserve and resources estimates of Crew's reserves and resources provided herein are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves or resources with be recovered. In addition,
forward-looking statements or information are based on a number of material factors, expectations or assumptions of Crew which have been used to develop such statements and information but which may prove to be
incorrect. Although Crew believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements or information are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements because Crew can give
no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. In addition to other factors and assumptions which may be identified herein, assumptions have been made regarding, among other things: the impact of
increasing competition; the general stability of the economic and political environment in which Crew operates; the timely receipt of any required regulatory approvals; the ability of Crew to obtain qualified staff, equipment and
services in a timely and cost efficient manner; drilling results; the ability of the operator of the projects in which Crew has an interest in to operate the field in a safe, efficient and effective manner; the ability of Crew to obtain
financing on acceptable terms; field production rates and decline rates; the ability to replace and expand oil and natural gas reserves through acquisition, development and exploration; risks associated with the degree of
certainty in resource assessments; the timing and cost of pipeline, storage and facility construction and expansion and the ability of Crew to secure adequate product transportation; future commodity prices; currency,
exchange and interest rates; regulatory framework regarding royalties, taxes and environmental matters in the jurisdictions in which Crew operates; and the ability of Crew to successfully market its oil and natural gas
products. There are a number of assumptions associated with the potential of resource volumes assigned to lands evaluated in Crew's Montney area of operations in NEBC, including the quality of the Montney reservoir,
future drilling programs and the funding thereof, continued performance from existing wells and performance of new wells, the growth of infrastructure, well density per section and recovery factors and discovery and
development of the lands evaluated in Crew's Montney area of operations in NEBC necessarily involves known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including those identified in this presentation and including the business
risks discussed in Crew's annual and quarterly MD&A and other continuous disclosure documents.
Crews 2017 budget guidance and related targets and forecasts disclosed herein are best estimates based on certain assumptions including, without limitation, operating results, known fiscal regimes, commodity prices and
risk management contracts and will be regularly monitored by management. Our objective will be to proactively manage our capital program as it relates to operational success and fluctuating commodity prices with a priority
to maintain financial flexibility and achieve our production guidance. Crew will closely monitor the budget and financial situation throughout the year to assess market conditions and will quickly adjust budget levels or pace of
development in accordance with commodity prices and available funds from operations.
The forward-looking information and statements included in this presentation are not guarantees of future performance and should not be unduly relied upon. Such information and statements; including the assumptions
made in respect thereof, involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results or events to defer materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking information or statements
including, without limitation: changes in commodity prices; the potential for variation in the quality of the Montney formation; changes in the demand for or supply of Crew's products; unanticipated operating results or
production declines; changes in tax or environmental laws, royalty rates or other regulatory matters; changes in development plans of Crew or by third party operators of Crew's properties, increased debt levels or debt
service requirements; inaccurate estimation of Crew's oil and gas reserve and resource volumes; limited, unfavourable or a lack of access to capital markets; increased costs; a lack of inadequate insurance coverage; the
impact of competitors; and certain other risks detailed from time-to-time in Crew's public disclosure documents, (including, without limitation, those risks identified in this presentation and Crew's Annual Information Form).
The forward-looking information and statements contained in this presentation speak only as of the date of this presentation, and Crew does not assume any obligation to publicly update or revise any of the included forward-
looking statements or information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable securities laws.

DEFINITIONS OF OIL & GAS RESOURCES AND RESERVES
Reserves are estimated remaining quantities of oil and natural gas and related substances anticipated to be recoverable from known accumulations, as of a given date, based on the analysis of drilling, geological,
geophysical and engineering data; the use of established technology; and specified economic conditions, which are generally accepted as being reasonable. Reserves are classified according to the degree of certainty
associated with the estimates as follows:
Proved Reserves are those reserves that can be estimated with a high degree of certainty to be recoverable. It is likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the estimated proved reserves.
Probable Reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves. It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the sum of the
estimated proved plus probable reserves.
Cumulative Production is the cumulative quantity of petroleum that has been recovered at a given date.
Resources encompasses all petroleum quantities that originally existed on or within the earth's crust in naturally occurring accumulations, including Discovered and Undiscovered (recoverable and unrecoverable) plus
quantities already produced. "Total resources" is equivalent to "Total Petroleum Initially-In-Place". Resources are classified in the following categories:
Total Petroleum Initially-In-Place ("TPIIP") is that quantity of petroleum that is estimated to exist originally in naturally occurring accumulations. It includes that quantity of petroleum that is estimated, as of a given
date, to be contained in known accumulations, prior to production, plus those estimated quantities in accumulations yet to be discovered.
Discovered Petroleum Initially-In-Place ("DPIIP") is that quantity of petroleum that is estimated, as of a given date, to be contained in known accumulations prior to production. The recoverable portion of discovered
petroleum initially in place includes production, reserves, and contingent resources; the remainder is unrecoverable.
Contingent Resources are those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from known accumulations using established technology or technology under development but which
are not currently considered to be commercially recoverable due to one or more contingencies. Contingencies may include such factors as economic, legal, environmental, political and regulatory matters or a lack of
markets. It is also appropriate to classify as Contingent Resources the estimated discovered recoverable quantities associated with a project in the early evaluation stage.
Economic Contingent Resources ("ECR") are those Contingent Resources which are currently economically recoverable.
Project Maturity Subclass Development Pending is defined as a contingent resource that has been assigned a high chance of development and the resolution of final conditions for development are being actively
pursued.
Project Maturity Subclass Development On Hold is defined as a contingent resource that has been assigned a reasonable chance of development, but there are major nontechnical contingencies to be resolved that
are usually beyond the control of the operator.
Project Maturity Subclass Development Unclarified is defined as a contingent resource that requires further appraisal to clarify the potential for development and has been assigned a lower chance of development
until contingencies can be clearly defined.
Project Maturity Subclass Development not Viable is defined as a contingent resource where no further data acquisition or evaluation is currently planned and hence there is a low chance of development.
Undiscovered Petroleum Initially-In-Place ("UPIIP") is that quantity of petroleum that is estimated, on a given date, to be contained in accumulations yet to be discovered. The recoverable portion of undiscovered
petroleum initially in place is referred to as "prospective resources" and the remainder as "unrecoverable."
Prospective Resources are those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations by application of future development projects. Prospective
resources have both an associated chance of discovery and a chance of development.
Unrecoverable is that portion of DPIIP and UPIIP quantities which is estimated, as of a given date, not to be recoverable by future development projects. A portion of these quantities may become recoverable in the
future as commercial circumstances change or technological developments occur; the remaining portion may never be recovered due to the physical/chemical constraints represented by subsurface interaction of fluids
and reservoir rocks.
Uncertainty Ranges are described by the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook as low, best, and high estimates for reserves and resources. The Best Estimate is considered to be the best estimate of the
quantity that will actually be recovered. It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the best estimate. If probabilistic methods are used, there should be at least a 50
percent probability (P50) that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the best estimate.

INFORMATION ON RESERVES, RESOURCES & OPERATIONAL INFORMATION
General - All amounts in this presentation are stated in Canadian dollars unless otherwise specified. Throughout this presentation, the terms Boe (barrels of oil equivalent), Mmboe (millions of barrels of oil equivalent), and
Tcfe (trillion cubic feet of gas equivalent) are used. Such terms when used in isolation, may be misleading. In accordance with Canadian practice, production volumes and revenues are reported on a company gross basis,
before deduction of Crown and other royalties and without including any royalty interest, unless otherwise stated. Unless otherwise specified, all reserves volumes in this news release (and all information derived therefrom)
are based on "company gross reserves" using forecast prices and costs. Our oil and gas reserves statement for the year-ended December 31, 2015 includes complete disclosure of our oil and gas reserves and other oil
and gas information in accordance with NI 51-101, and is contained within our Annual Information Form which is available on our SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com. The recovery and reserve estimates contained herein are
estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered. In relation to the disclosure of estimates for individual properties, such estimates may not reflect the same confidence level as
estimates of reserves and future net revenue for all properties, due to the effects of aggregation. The Company's belief that it will establish additional reserves over time with conversion of probable undeveloped reserves
into proved reserves is a forward-looking statement and is based on certain assumptions and is subject to certain risks, as discussed previously under the heading "Forward-Looking Information and Statements".
Unaudited financial information - Certain financial and operating information included in this presentation for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2016 are based on estimated unaudited financial results for the
quarter and year then ended, and are subject to the same limitations as discussed previously under Forward Looking Information. These estimated amounts may change upon the completion of audited financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2016 and changes could be material.
Oil & Gas Metrics - This presentation contains metrics commonly used in the oil and natural gas industry, such as "recycle ratio", "finding and development costs", "finding and development recycle ratio", "finding,
development and acquisition costs", "operating netbacks", reserves replacement and IRR. These terms do not have standardized meanings or standardized methods of calculation and therefore may not be comparable
to similar measures presented by other companies, and therefore should not be used to make such comparisons. Management uses oil and gas metrics for its own performance measurements and to provide shareholders
with measures to compare Crew's operations over time. Readers are cautioned that the information provided by these metrics, or that can be derived from the metrics presented in this presentation, should not be unduly
relied upon. The following oil and gas metrics have the following meanings as used in this presentation:
F&D and FD&A costs - The calculation of F&D and FD&A costs incorporates the change in FDC required to bring proved undeveloped and developed reserves into production. In all cases, the F&D or FD&A number is
calculated by dividing the identified capital expenditures by the applicable reserves additions after changes in FDC costs. Both F&D and FD&A costs take into account reserves revisions during the year on a per boe
basis. The aggregate of the costs incurred in the financial year and changes during that year in estimated FDC may not reflect total F&D costs related to reserves additions for that year. Finding and development costs
both including and excluding acquisitions and dispositions have been presented in this presentation because acquisitions and dispositions can have a significant impact on our ongoing reserves replacement costs and
excluding these amounts could result in an inaccurate portrayal of our cost structure.
Recycle ratio - defined as operating netback per boe divided by F&D or FD&A costs on a per boe basis. Operating netback is calculated as revenue (including realized hedging gains and losses) minus royalties,
operating expenses, and transportation expenses.
Reserves Replacement Ratio - calculated as total reserve additions (including acquisitions net of dispositions) divided by annual production. Crews 2016 estimated annual production averaged 22,844 boe/d.
Type Wells - The Septimus and West Septimus type wells presented in slides 9 and 13 herein reflect the average per well proved plus probable undeveloped raw gas assignments (EUR) for Crew's area of operations, as
derived from the Company's year end independent reserve evaluations prepared in accordance with the definitions and standards contained in the COGE Handbook. The type wells are based upon all Crew producing
wells in the area as well as non-Crew wells determined by the independent evaluator to be analogous for purposes of the reserve assignments. Internal Forecast curves incorporate the most recent data from actual well
results and would only be representative of the specific drilled locations . There is no guarantee that Crew will achieve the estimated or similar results derived therefrom.
Test Results and Initial Production Rates - A pressure transient analysis or well-test interpretation has not been carried out and thus certain of the test results provided herein should be considered to be preliminary until
such analysis or interpretation has been completed. Test results and initial production rates disclosed herein may not necessarily be indicative of long term performance or of ultimate recovery.
BOE equivalent - Barrel of oil equivalents or BOEs may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of 6 mcf: 1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at
the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different than the energy equivalency
of 6:1, utilizing a 6:1 conversion basis may be misleading as an indication of value.
Resource estimates within this Presentation are based upon the independent resource evaluation prepared in accordance with COGE by Sproule Associates Limited effective December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2015,
as indicated.

INFORMATION ON RESERVES, RESOURCES & OPERATIONAL INFORMATION
This presentation contains references to estimates of oil and gas classified as TPIIP, DPIIP, UPIIP and ECR in the Montney region in NE BC which are not, and should not be confused with, oil and gas reserves. See
"Definitions of Oil and Gas Resources and Reserves". TPIIP, DPIIP and UPIIP have been estimated in 2015 using a one percent porosity cutoff.
Projects have not been defined to develop the resources in the Evaluated Areas as at the evaluation date. Such projects, in the case of the Montney resource development, have historically been developed sequentially
over a number of drilling seasons and are subject to annual budget constraints, Crew's policy of orderly development on a staged basis, the timing of the growth of third party infrastructure, the short and long-term view of
Crew on oil and gas prices, the results of exploration and development activities of Crew and others in the area and possible infrastructure capacity constraints. As with any resource estimates, the evaluation will change
over time as new information becomes available.
Crew's belief that it will establish significant additional reserves over time with the conversion of Prospective Resource into Contingent Resource, Contingent Resource into probable reserves and probable reserves into
proved reserves is a forward looking statement and is based on certain assumptions and is subject to certain risks, as discussed below under the heading "Forward Looking Information and Statements". Reference is
made to Crew's press release dated May 5, 2016 for a discussion of the principal risks, uncertainties and contingencies associated with the recovery and development of the Resource estimates presented herein.
