We, as an interest owner or as the designated operator of certain of our current and future discoveries and prospects, could be held liable for some or all environmental, health and safety costs and liabilities arising out of our actions and omissions as well as those of our block partners, third-party contractors or other operators. To the extent we do not address these costs and liabilities or if we do not otherwise satisfy our obligations, our operations could be suspended or terminated. We have contracted with and intend to continue to hire third parties to perform services related to our operations. There is a risk that we may contract with third parties with unsatisfactory environmental, health and safety records or that our contractors may be unwilling or unable to cover any losses associated with their acts and omissions. Accordingly, we could be held liable for all costs and liabilities arising out of the acts or omissions of our contractors, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Some oil operations historically were permitted to burn crude oil to power operations but this is commonly not permitted today due to associated greenhouse gas emissions. Our South Salinas Project may produce sufficient natural gas to be power self-sourced and even to deliver gas to market. The McCool Ranch Oil Field produces black oil without associated natural gas, and historically has received natural gas through an existing pipeline that has had excess capacity. The excess capacity available might not be adequate to meet our demand. If establishing and
