Husky uses fresh water intensity metrics on a project basis to assess fresh water efficiency and to inform water management. This is also tracked and assessed annually through the Husky Operational Integrity Management System (HOIMS) Environmental Reporting and Action Planning initiative and through Husky's Water Management Critical Competency Network. The intensity is represented as m³ water withdrawn / m³ oil equivalent production. The intensity increased this year due to a new thermal project starting up in Saskatchewan. The total intensity is expected to remain steady or decrease in 2020, reflecting Husky's adjustments to production and throughput in response to market conditions in the first half of 2020. The intensity is expected to increase in the years following 2020 with the start-up of new thermal facilities in Saskatchewan.Husky is assessing technologies that could improve freshwater efficiency in future thermal operations. As an example, a pilot program at three thermal projects in Saskatchewan that uses artificial intelligence to enhance steam utilization reduced steam requirements by about 10%, while improving production by approximately 2%. Based on the pilot results, the program is being rolled out at other Saskatchewan thermal projects.

Rationale for this coverage

Husky uses a supplier pre-qualification and qualification questionnaire that requires all new suppliers to submit their company sustainability information for Husky's review. This questionnaire is a requirement for new suppliers. In the questionnaire, suppliers are asked whether they disclose their water-related information specifically to CDP.

Impact of the engagement and measures of success

In the questionnaire, suppliers are asked whether they disclose their water-related information specifically to CDP. They are also asked if they comply with all applicable environmental laws and regulations, which include water-related regulations within their jurisdiction. Suppliers become aware that Husky is interested in their water management disclosure related to their operations. Husky uses the information to understand the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) maturity of potential suppliers. Husky measures the success of this initiative by measuring the number of new suppliers completing the questionnaire.

Comment

W1.4c

(W1.4c) What is your organization's rationale and strategy for prioritizing engagements with customers or other partners in its value chain?

Husky undertakes several water related initiatives endorsed through its Corporate Water Standard, such as contributing to joint industry value chain water management initiatives and water research. For example, at the Sunrise Energy Project, Husky collaborates with nearby oil sands operators on water recycling processes. Specifically, Husky uses process affected water (PAW) from one operator's tailings ponds, and basal McMurray groundwater that is in contact with bitumen mined by the operation of an adjacent oil sands mining project. This initiative demonstrates excellent collaboration with nearby operators. The agreements that have been put in place are mutually beneficial to the operators involved. This project won the Husky CEO Award of Excellence for Corporate Responsibility. In 2019, Husky began the process of joining the Canadian Oil Sands Innovation Alliance (COSIA) to further engage with its industry partners and became an official participant in 2020. Husky prioritizes water stewardship engagement with value chain partners where there are risks related to exposure to regulatory changes, water quality and water quantity issues. Success of these engagements is measured by meeting regulatory obligations, disposal limitations and stakeholder commitments.

Description of penalty, incident, regulatory violation, significance, and resolution

Husky was issued fines totaling $3.82 million CAD relating to the 2016 oil spill in Saskatchewan. On July 21, 2016 a leak was discovered on a pipeline crossing the North Saskatchewan River. The pipeline was isolated at the river crossing and spill response crews were dispatched. Approximately 225 cubic metres (225,000 litres) of crude blended with condensate were released, with about 60% of the volume contained on land. The cause was determined to be ground movement over time. More than one million hours were worked on the cleanup response in 2016, involving about 2,600 personnel. At peak, more than 900 people were working simultaneously on the response. Husky has used the lessons learned from this incident to improve its pipeline operations. These improvements include an updated leak response protocol, regular geotechnical reviews of pipelines and fibre optic sensing technology installed on all new large diameter and higher consequence projects.

W3. Procedures

W-CH3.1

(W-CH3.1) How does your organization identify and classify potential water pollutants associated with its activities in the chemical sector that could have a detrimental impact on water ecosystems or human health?

W-OG3.1

(W-OG3.1) How does your organization identify and classify potential water pollutants associated with its activities in the oil & gas sector that may have a detrimental impact on water ecosystems or human health?

Potential water pollutants associated with Husky's exploration, development, production, transportation, upgrading, and refining (hydrocarbons, produced water, drilling fluids, completion fluids) are identified through processes, standards, regulations, and monitoring programs. Chemicals on site are identified and labelled in accordance with the Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS) and Transportation of Dangerous Goods (TDG) requirements, and Safety Data Sheets are available on site to advise response actions in case of any incidents. Husky participates in the Government of Canada's Chemicals Management Plan, which provides an inventory of chemicals used in operations. Husky is also required to identify and report hydraulic fracturing chemicals to regulatory databases. Husky conducts groundwater monitoring and sampling programs at facilities across its operations and value chain, including thermal oil production facilities, gas plants, refineries, pipeline terminals, and the Lloydminster Upgrader. The major chemicals assessed in these programs are similar across operations (hydrocarbons, salts, metals), with some local differences (for example, naphthenic acids are monitored at the Sunrise Energy Project and Tucker Thermal Project, while these are not contaminants of concern at the refineries). Surface or shallow groundwater may be impacted by releases of these chemicals; potential ecosystem and human health impacts depend on the receptors present and risks are assessed in greater detail in the event of a release. Most chemicals have regulatory guidelines for concentrations in surface water and groundwater based on toxicological studies; monitoring results are assessed in the context of these guidelines.

Overall this is not currently an issue or a priority for Husky. However, Husky does assess supply chain water risks for specific operations, where warranted. As an example, Husky relies on third-party disposal facilities for hydraulic fracturing operations. These facilities can have capacity issues in areas of hydraulic fracturing. Husky considers this in assessing options to mitigate the cost of this risk. Also, refer back to previous supply chain comments in Section 1.4.

For example, Husky's Tucker thermal facility sources water from a deep, saline aquifer for steam. Most of the water is recycled for reuse as steam, and what must be disposed is

injected into the same deep, saline aquifer. This approach protects the surrounding wetland from impact from water sourcing for steam. The Company also manages water aspects of

(W3.3d) Describe your organization's process for identifying, assessing, and responding to water-related risks within your direct operations and other stages of your value chain.

Husky conducts an annual preliminary assessment of water-related risks for all of its operations. Material water-related risks are identified in accordance with the Company's Corporate Water Standard and Water Risk Assessment Procedure. Facilities deemed to be potentially at higher risk are prioritized for a more detailed water risk assessment within the year. The Company's Corporate Risk Matrix includes environmental, reputational, financial, legal, regulatory, and health and safety aspects. Tools used include government databases (e.g. Alberta water well database for assessing impact to domestic users), international methods, and databases (e.g. WRI Aqueduct for assessing water stress associated with water sources), and internal processes (Corporate Water Standard). Outcomes of the risk assessment are used to develop the Water Management Plan for a facility/operation, which identifies specific risk mitigation actions with associated timelines and stewards. Where water risk assessments are conducted for potential developments, the results of the risk assessment inform water management decisions for the project (such as water sourcing or disposal).

(W4.1a) How does your organization define substantive financial or strategic impact on your business?

Husky's enterprise risk management program supports decision-making via comprehensive and systematic identification and assessment of risks that could materially impact the Company's results. Through this framework, the Company builds risk management and mitigation into strategic planning and operational processes for its business units through the adoption of standards and best practices. Husky has developed an enterprise risk matrix to identify risks to its people, the environment, its assets and its reputation, and to systematically mitigate these risks to an acceptable level. Husky defines substantive change as a financial impact to direct operations of greater than $10 million dollars. The corporate risk register is revisited on at least an annual basis, while the matrix is evaluated every three years. Sourcing water for operations at the Sunrise Energy Project is an example of an identified risk incorporated into the risk register. Sunrise is reliant on two third-party access agreements to source water for operations. With the local competition for water sources, unplanned changes in the access agreements could impact water sourcing and therefore oil production. If the two operator agreements for water sourcing were compromised at the same time, production would stop. Based on 2019 data, lost production on its own would be a loss of approximately $13 million per week gross revenue.

Company-specific description

Husky operates in some of the harshest environments in the world, including the offshore Atlantic region at the White Rose field. Climate change is expected to increase severe weather conditions, including winds, flooding, and variable temperatures that are contributing to the melting of northern ice and increased iceberg activity. The Company has a number of policies to protect people, equipment, and the environment in the event of extreme weather conditions and adverse ice conditions. Risk Effects: Icebergs and pack ice off the coast of Newfoundland and Labrador may affect Husky's offshore facilities, necessitating temporary operational shut downs, or potentially causing damage to equipment, spills, asset damage and human impacts.

Explanation of financial impact

The potential consequences of a severe weather or ice related event to Husky's offshore operations include possible production disruptions, spills, asset damage and human impacts. While this is mitigated through the methods described in this table, the potential production disruption from a two-month period of disconnection due to ice for the SeaRose Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessel could result in $63,792,720 in reduced revenues. This estimate is based on 2019 average daily production numbers of 12,300 boe (net equity share) and 2019 average gross revenue per barrel of $86.44, as published in Husky's 2019 Annual Report. (12,300 boe x 60 days x $86.44/boe = $63,792,720).

Primary response to risk

Other, please specify (Annual monitoring and management)

Description of response

Husky's Atlantic region business unit has a robust ice management program that uses a range of resources, including advanced detection, monitoring and management. Ice monitoring is facilitated through fixed-wing flight reconnaissance, satellite imagery processing and offshore supply vessel reconnaissance. Monitoring data is processed in georeferenced format and ice drift is predicted using established software developed by the National Research Council and the Canadian Ice Service. Supply vessels alter the trajectory of icebergs through various methods as needed. During ice season, Husky owned, operated and/or contracted offshore facilities are assigned ice observers, providing 24-hour coverage. Regular ice surveillance flights usually commence in February and continue throughout iceberg season. Husky maintains a series of ad-hoc relationships with contractors, providing for the quick mobilization of additional resources as required.

Explanation of financial impact

Costs would be variable, and relative to the amount of recycling that is mandated. A single new facility requiring minor (<5%) water recycling could represent a one-time financial impact of $500K plus increases in annual operating costs. Retrofitting all existing facilities for significant amounts of recycling could represent a financial impact >$330 million (>$30 million per plant in capital costs; operating costs would be additional to this).

Primary response to risk

Adopt water efficiency, water reuse, recycling and conservation practices

Description of response

Husky is increasing water efficiency at its new Saskatchewan thermal facilities through implementation of an acidification process that improves boiler blowdown recycle. The Company is also preparing for possible changes to regulations by (1) engaging with regulators to anticipate planned changes; (2) evaluating water risk at the facility level for all heavy oil operations; (3) characterizing produced water variability and research of water recycling technology.

Financial impacts exceeding $10 million are considered significant under Husky's corporate risk matrix. If Husky's two operator agreements for water sourcing were compromised at the same time, production would stop. Based on 2019 data, lost production on its own would be a loss of approximately $13 million per week gross revenue. These costs would be incurred until at least one agreement issue was resolved or an alternate water source was found.

Watercourse crossings are federally regulated under the Fisheries Act and the Species at Risk Act, as well as the Public Lands Act and Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act the provincial level. Penalties and offences for non-compliance include fines and potential imprisonment pursuant to the Fisheries Act. The estimated cost of non-compliance with the Directive is based on historical inspection results and estimated crossing deficiencies.

Primary response to risk

Comply with local regulatory requirements

Description of response

To maintain compliance with this directive, Husky participates in Foothills Stream Crossing Partnership, which provides Husky with a system to inspect and manage its watercourse crossing assets and facilitate reporting on the asset's status to the Alberta Energy Regulator annually. Husky inspects crossing assets in priority watersheds annually, and develops remediation plans to address deficiencies within a 5-year timeframe.

Cost savings

Company-specific description & strategy to realize opportunity

Husky handles substantial water volumes throughout the completion and production phases of its fracturing operations. The volume of water, the high frequency in which it's handled, and the temporary methods and infrastructure used to handle water, result in high operating costs. Husky is assessing opportunities to lower the financial, community and environmental impact of water handling. Opportunities are assessed through holistic water management scenarios that align and can be implemented with the planned pace of development. The use of local and/or permanent infrastructure could make Husky's fracturing assets more resilient in challenging economic conditions, and limit water transportation by trucking resulting in reduced impact on communities. Permanent infrastructure for water storage and/or recycling can be used to increase the efficiency of water use in fracturing operations, lowering the environmental impact. Water retention ponds, deep groundwater wells (>50 m deep), water pipelines, water treatment and recycling technology and wastewater disposal (>1,000 m deep) are all being considered as opportunities.

Explanation of financial impact

Two examples of Husky's fracturing assets and their cost-benefit considerations are: 1) In-field (local) Husky owned disposal (requires moderate capital ($3MM to $20MM): can be implemented once there is sufficient demand (water volumes) to justify Husky owned and/or local disposal; reduces trucking costs; reduces truck traffic; eliminates disposal fees; would save > $36MM over 10 years 2) Permanent water treatment and recycling: Involves a high commitment ($20MM to $50MM); must be considered with plant construction and commitment to asset development; drastically reduces or eliminates trucking, reduces freshwater volume requirements; reduces disposal requirements and fees; capital investment of $20MM would be recovered in 3 to 5 years The financial impact can be variable depending on the scale of operations, the time required for development, and type and location of infrastructure.

Husky reduced the per-well water management CAPEX in fracturing operations by up to 50%, from 2018 to 2019. The 2020 water-related OPEX for fracturing operations is anticipated to be similar or lower than 2019, due to less completions activity. Water related CAPEX and OPEX are expected to decrease beyond 2020, corresponding with strategic water management planning for all operations, and opportunities to develop water-related infrastructure for fracturing operations.

Description of goal

Husky completes water management plans. Water management plans (also referred to as water risk assessments) identify water risks and associated mitigations, and therefore are critical to water security. Annually, facilities that rely on water are identified, with risks reviewed at a high level, and facilities are selected for detailed water risk assessment and mitigation. This is a Company-wide goal to allow prioritization of the highest risk facilities. This ensures the highest water risks are being addressed, which is important since a large portion of Husky's operations are dependent on water. A schedule is updated to track progress of water risk assessments.

Progress

A list of facilities that rely on water is generated, and progress in conducting water risk assessments is tracked against this list each year. Success is indicated by completion of risk assessments for the highest priority facilities on an annual basis, and for all facilities by 2020. Husky has now completed risk assessments for 46% of its water-reliant facilities.
