All gas wells producing from the Wabiskaw-McMurray Formation on Gulf's Surmont leases are to be shut in as of May 1, 2000. Gulf's President and CEO Dick Auchinleck said, ``We are pleased with the AEUB decision.

The Surmont leases contain an estimated 15 billion barrels of bitumen in place, of which five billion barrels are estimated to be recoverable through the application of the Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage technology currently being developed.
