Operator Sure. IÂ'll make a couple of comments, and then if Peter wants to add on to it. I think, 1 of the things, we now have such a concentration of assets in the mining world, things that sound fairly simple, but like fleet deployment. We have a higher percentage of smaller leased trucks at Fort Hills, and I described in my comments kind of the strategy of fewer bigger.

The next area IÂ'd like to talk about is above field costs. On June 1, we announced internally plans to reduce above field costs by $400 million a year. If you think of it on an overall corporate breakeven basis, that would equate to about $1.50 a barrel.

This would represent a 9-month payout. This is an intern ...
