   1.                                                   Your response to prior
comments 3 and 11 acknowledges that the disclosed proved
                                                        developed non-producing
reserves for certain shut-in wells at December 31, 2019 did not
                                                        meet the definitions of
economically producible, proved reserves or reserves according to
                                                        Rule 4-10(a)(10),
(a)(22) and (a)(26), respectively. The intent to develop these
                                                        uneconomic quantities
in and of itself does not justify recognition of reserves. Remove
                                                        any quantities in
filings made with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that do
                                                        not meet all of the
requirements to be classified as reserves.
