On its own motion the Commission proposed to amend the rules addressing mechanical integrity in all existing orders authorizing underground injection. The Commission published notice of opportunity for public hearing on the proposal in the Anchorage Daily News on October 3, 2004 to consider amendment of underground injection orders to incorporate consistent language addressing the mechanical integrity of injection wells. A hearing was tentatively scheduled for November 4, 2004. 2. By e-mail dated October 15, 2004, BPXA suggested edits to the Commission's proposed language addressing the mechanical integrity of injection wells. 3. No protests to the Commission's proposal or requests for hearing were received, and the scheduled hearing was vacated. 4. All orders authorizing injection in Prudhoe Bay Unit oil pools, with the exception of Area Injection Orders 22C (Aurora Oil Pool) and 24A (Borealis Oil Pool) include specific instructions for well integrity failures. 5. Area Injection Order 24A rules governing well mechanical integrity are inconsistent with other orders issued for underground injection operations in the State of Alaska. 6. The Commission published notice of opportunity for public hearing on the proposed amendments to Area Injection Order 24A in the Anchorage Daily News on December 20, 2007. A hearing was tentatively scheduled for January 31, 2008. 7. No protests to the Commission's proposal or requests for hearing were received, and the scheduled hearing was vacated. CONCLUSIONS: 1. The exclusion of a rule addressing well integrity failure appears to have been an oversight by the Commission in the writing of Area Injection Order No. 24A. Area Injection Order 2400 January 30, 2008 0 Page 2 2. Requirements for the demonstration of mechanical integrity are unclear as written in Area Injection Order 24A, specifically regarding the testing frequency. 3. It is appropriate both to amend Area Injection Order No. 24A to include requirements governing an injection well integrity failure, and to clarify the mechanical integrity demonstration requirements to be consistent with other injection orders issued by the Commission. NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED: In addition to statewide requirements under 20 AAC 25 (to the extent not superseded by these rules), the following rules govern Class II injection operations in the affected area described below and supersede and replace the rules adopted in Area Injection Order No. 24A dated April 22, 2005: Umiat Meridian T12N-R10E: ADL 25637 Sec 13, 24 T12N-RI IE: ADL 47447 Sec 16 (SW/4 and W/2 NW/4 and W/2 SE/4), 21, 22 SW/4 and W/2 NW/4 and S/2 SE/4 ADL 47446 Sec 17, 18, 19, 20 ADL 28238 Sec 26 S/2 and W/2 NW/4 and SE/4 NW/4, 35, 36 ADL 28239 Sec 27, 28, 33, 34 ADL 47449 Sec 29, 30, 32 T11N-R1IE: ADL 28240 Sec 1, 2, 11, 12 ADL 28241 Sec 3, 4, 9, 10 ADL 28245 Sec 13, 14, 24 ADL 28244 Sec 15 ADL 28246 Sec 25 T11N-R12E: ADL 28261 Sec 9 W/2 ADL 47450 Sec 5 S/2, 6 S/2 and NW/4 and W/2 NE/4, 7, 8 ADL 28263 Sec 16 W/2,21 W/2 ADL 28262 Sec 17, 18, 19, 20 ADL 47452 Sec 28 W/2,33 W/2 ADL 47453 Sec 29, 30, 31, 32 T12N-R12E: ADL 28259 Sec 31 W/2 and W/2 SE/4 Area Injection Order 2400 • Page 3 January 30, 2008 Rule 1 Authorized Iniection Strata for Enhanced Recovery Injection of authorized fluids for purposes of pressure maintenance and enhanced recovery is permitted into strata that are common to, and correlate with, the interval between 6534' and 6952' MD in the West Kuparuk State #1 well in the Prudhoe Bay Field. Rule 2 Authorized Injection Fluids Fluids authorized for injection within the affected area are: a. produced water from Borealis Oil Pool or Prudhoe Bay Unit production facilities for the purposes of pressure maintenance and enhanced recovery; b, non -hazardous water collected from Borealis well house cellars and standing ponds; c. tracer survey fluid to monitor reservoir performance; d. source water from a seawater treatment plant; enriched hydrocarbon gas from the Prudhoe Bay Unit processing facilities, with the condition that the average Borealis Oil Pool reservoir pressure must be maintained above the minimum miscibility of the injectant; and f. source water from the Prince Creek Formation. Rule 3 Fluid Iniection Wells The underground injection of fluids must be through a well that has been permitted for drilling as a service well for injection in conformance with 20 AAC 25.005, or through a well approved for conversion to a service well for injection in conformance with 20 AAC 25.280 and 20 AAC 25.412. The application to drill or convert a well for injection must be accompanied by sufficient information to verify the mechanical condition of wells within one-quarter mile radius. The information must include cementing records, cement quality log or formation integrity test records. Rule 4 Monitoring the Tubing -Casing Annulus Pressure Variations The tubing by casing annulus pressure and injection rate of each injection well must be checked at least weekly to confirm continued mechanical integrity. Rule 5 Demonstration of Tubing -Casing Annulus Mechanical Integrity The mechanical integrity of an injection well must be demonstrated before injection begins, and before returning a well to service following a workover affecting mechanical integrity. A Commission -witnessed mechanical integrity test must be performed after injection is commenced for the first time in a well, to be scheduled when injection conditions (temperature, pressure, rate, etc.) have stabilized. Subsequent tests must be performed at least once every four years thereafter (except at least once every two years Area Injection Order 2400 January 30, 2008 0 Page 4 in the case of a slurry injection well). The Commission must be notified at least 24 hours in advance to enable a representative to witness mechanical integrity tests. Unless an alternate means is approved by the Commission, mechanical integrity must be demonstrated by a tubing by casing annulus pressure test using a surface pressure of 1500 psi or 0.25 psi/ft multiplied by the vertical depth of the packer, whichever is greater, that shows stabilizing pressure and does not change more than 10 percent during a 30 -minute period. Results of mechanical integrity tests must be readily available for Commission inspection. Rule 6 Well Integrity Failure Whenever any pressure communication, leakage or lack of injection zone isolation is indicated by injection rate, operating pressure observation, test, survey, log, or other evidence, the Operator shall notify the Commission by the next business day and submit a plan of corrective action on a Form 10-403 for Commission approval. The Operator shall immediately shut in the well if continued operation would be unsafe or would threaten contamination of freshwater, or if so directed by the Commission. A monthly report of daily tubing and casing annuli pressures and injection rates must be provided to the Commission for all injection wells indicating well integrity failure or lack of injection zone isolation. Rule 7 Notification of Improper Class II Iniection Injection of fluids other than those listed in Rule 2 without prior authorization is considered improper Class II injection. Upon discovery of such an event, the operator must immediately notify the Commission, provide details of the operation, and propose actions to prevent recurrence. Additionally, notification requirements of any other State or Federal agency remain the operator's responsibility. Rule 8 Other conditions a. It is a condition of this authorization that the operator complies with all applicable Commission regulations. b. The Commission may immediately suspend, revoke, or modify this authorization if injected fluids fail to be confined within the designated injection strata. Area Injection Order 240 Page 5 January 30, 2008 Rule 9 Administrative Action Unless notice and public hearing is otherwise required, the Commission may administratively waive the requirements of any rule stated above or administratively amend any rule as long as the change does not promote waste or jeopardize correlative rights, is based on sound engineering and geoscience principles, and will not result in an increased risk of fluid movement into freshwater. DONE at Anchorage, Alaska, and c Cathy P. oerster, Commissioner AS 31.05.080 provides that within 20 days after receipt of written notice of the entry of an order, a person affected by it may file with the Commission an application for reconsideration. A request for reconsideration must be received by 4:30 PM on the 23rd day following the date of the order, or next working day if a holiday or weekend, to be timely filed. The Commission shall grant or refuse the application in whole or in part within 10 days. The Commission can refuse an application by not acting on it within the 10 -day period. An affected person has 30 days from the date the Commission refuses the application or mails (or otherwise distributes) an order upon reconsideration, both being the final order of the Commission, to appeal the decision to Superior Court. Where a request for reconsideration is denied by nonaction of the Commission, the 30 -day period for appeal to Superior Court runs from the date on which the request is deemed denied (i.e., 10th day after the application for reconsideration was filed). 0 0 Page 1 of 1 Colombie, Jody J (DOA) From: Colombie, Jody J (DOA) Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2008 9:08 AM Subject: C0532B (West Foreland #2), AIO 32 (Redoubt Unit),A1024B (Prudhoe Bay -Borealis), A1022D (Prudhoe Bay - Aurora) Attachments: aio32.pdf; co532b.pdf; aio22d.pdf; aio24b.pdf BCC:Cynthia B Mciver (bren.mciver@alaska.gov); 'Alan Birnbaum <""Alan J Birnbaum "> (alan. bimbaum@alaska. gov)'; 'Aleutians East Borough'; 'Anna Raff; Arion, Teri A (DNR); 'Arthur C Saltmarsh'; 'Arthur Copoulos'; 'Barbara F Fullmer'; 'bbritch'; 'Bill Walker'; 'Brad McKim'; 'Brandon Gagnon'; 'Brian Gillespie'; 'Brian Havelock'; 'Brit Lively'; 'Bruce Webb'; 'buonoje'; 'Cammy Taylor'; 'Cande.Brandow'; 'carol smyth'; 'Cary Carrigan'; 'Catherine P Foerster'; caunderwood@marathonoil.com; 'Charles O'Donnell'; 'Chris Gay'; 'Christian Gou- Leonhardt'; 'Cliff Posey'; 'Dan Bross'; 'daps'; 'Daryl J.

P.O. Box 196612 Anchorage, AK 99519-6612 RE: PBU V-112 (PTD 2060200) Request for Administrative Approval Borealis Oil Pool Dear Mr. Rossberg: Pursuant to Rule 9 of Area Injection Order ("AIO") 2413.000, the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission ("AOGCC" or "Commission") hereby grants BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. ("BPXA")'s request for administrative approval to continue water injection in the subject well. AOGCC finds that BPXA has elected to perform no corrective action at this time on Prudhoe Bay Unit ("PBU") V-112. The Commission further finds that the well demon- strates inner annulus ("IA") repressurization while on miscible gas injection that can be safely managed with periodic pressure bleeds. Outer annulus pressures do not indicate anomalous conditions or loss of pressure integrity. The Commission believes that the well's condition does not compromise overall well integrity so as to threaten the envi- ronment or human safety, if the well's operation is subject to the constraints enumerated below. AOGCC's administrative approval to continue water injection only in PBU V-112 is con- ditioned upon the following: 1. BPXA shall record wellhead pressures and injection rate daily; 2. BPXA shall submit to the AOGCC a monthly report of well pressures and injec- tion rates, and shall flag the well's periodic pressure bleeds on the report; 3. BPXA shall perform an MIT - IA every 2 years to the maximum anticipated in- jection pressure; AI024B-001 • April 21, 2008 Page 2 of 2 4. BPXA shall immediately shut in the well and notify the AOGCC if there is any change in the well's mechanical condition; 7. After well shut in due to a change in the well's mechanical condition, AOGCC approval shall be required to restart injection; and 8. The MIT anniversary date is March 16, 2008. a and dated April 21, 2008. Cathy P Foerster Commissioner RECONSIDERATION AND APPEAL NOTICE As provided in AS 31.05.080(a), within 20 days after written notice of the entry of this order or decision, or such further time as the Commission grants for good cause shown, a person affected by it may file with the Commission an application for reconsideration of the matter determined by it. If the notice was mailed, then the period of time shall be 23 days. An application for reconsideration must set out the respect in which the order or decision is believed to be erroneous. The Commission shall grant or refuse the application for reconsideration in whole or in part within 10 days after it is filed. Failure to act on it within 10 -days is a denial of reconsideration. If the Commission denies reconsideration, upon denial, this order or decision and the denial of re- consideration are FINAL and may be appealed to superior court. The appeal MUST be filed within 33 days after the date on which the Com- mission mails, OR 30 days if the Commission otherwise distributes, the order or decision denying reconsideration, UNLESS the denial is by in- action, in which case the appeal MUST be filed within 40 days after the date on which the application for reconsideration was filed. If the Commission grants an application for reconsideration, this order or decision does not become final. Rather, the order or decision on re- consideration will be the FINAL order or decision of the Commission, and it may be appealed to superior court. That appeal MUST be filed within 33 days after the date on which the Commission mails, OR 30 days if the Commission otherwise distributes, the order or decision on re- consideration. As provided in AS 31.05.080(b), "[t]he questions reviewed on appeal are limited to the questions presented to the Commission by the application for reconsideration." In computing a period of time above, the date of the event or default after which the designated period begins to run is not included in the pe- riod; the last day of the period is included, unless it falls on a weekend or state holiday, in which event the period runs until 5:00 p.m. on the next day that does not fall on a weekend or state holiday.

(BPXA)'s request dated July 15, 2008 Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) hereby cancels Administrative Approval AIO 2413.001, which allows continued water injection in Prudhoe Bay Unit (PBU) well V-112. This well exhibited tubing by inner annulus communication and BPXA did not at the time propose repairing the well to eliminate the problem. The Commission determined that water injection could safely continue in the well, but subject to a number of restrictive conditions set out in the administrative approval. BPXA has since performed a well intervention to install new dummy gas lift valves with extended packing in PBU V-112. BPXA provided wellhead pressure data demonstrating the elimination of tubing by inner annulus pressure communication while injecting miscible gas. Consequently, Administrative Approval AIO 2413.001 no longer applies to operation of this well. Instead, injection into PBU V-112 will be governed by provisions of the underlying AIO No. 24B.

P.O. Box 196612 Anchorage, AK 99519-6612 RE: PBU L-111 (PTD 2020300) Request for Administrative Approval Borealis Oil Pool Dear Mr. Rossberg: Pursuant to Rule 9 of Area Injection Order (AIO) 24B.000, the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC or Commission) hereby grants BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. (BPXA)'s request for administrative approval to continue water injection in the subject well. The Commission was notified by BPXA of tubing by inner annuls communication while injecting miscible gas in PBU L-111. Gas lift valves with extended packing were installed to remedy the pressure communication in July 2008 and subsequent pressure tests were performed to prove primary and secondary barriers in the well. An AOGCC witnessed test to 4000 psi passed on August 8, 2008. Subsequent to returning the well to miscible gas injection, the well demonstrates inner annulus repressurization that can be safely managed with periodic pressure bleeds. Outer annulus pressures do not indicate anomalous conditions or loss of pressure integrity. AOGCC finds that BPXA has elected to perform no corrective action at this time on PBU L-111. The Commission believes that the well's condition does not compromise overall well integrity so as to threaten the environment or human safety, if the well's operation is subject to the constraints enumerated below. AOGCC's administrative approval to continue water injection only in PBU L-111 is conditioned upon the following: 1. BPXA shall record wellhead pressures and injection rate daily; 2. BPXA shall submit to the AOGCC a monthly report of well pressures and injection rates, and shall flag the well's periodic pressure bleeds on the report; AIO 24B.002 September 19, 2008 Page 2 of 2 3. BPXA shall perform an MIT - IA every 2 years to the maximum anticipated injection pressure; 4. BPXA shall immediately notify the AOGCC and shut in the well if there is any continued deterioration in well integrity, indicated by increased inner or outer annulus pressure, increased repressure rate, or increased bleed frequency; 5. After well shut in due to a change in the well's mechanical condition, AOGCC approval shall be required to restart injection; and 6. The MIT anniversary date is August 8, 2008.

Area Injection Order No. 2413.002 Cancellation Prudhoe Bay Unit Borealis Field Borealis Oil Pool June 19, 2013 By letter dated June 8, 2013, BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. (BPXA) requested cancellation of administrative approval (AA) Area Injection Order (AIO) 2413.002 to allow well L-111 (PTD 20203 00) to inject both water and miscible gas injectant for water alternating gas (WAG) service. In accordance with Rule 9 of AIO 02413.000, the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) hereby GRANTS BPXA's request to cancel the AA and return the well to WAG service as detailed below. This well exhibited a slow inner annulus repressurization. Because BPXA at that time did not propose repairing the well to eliminate the problem, the Commission determined that only water injection could safely continue in the well, and imposed a number of restrictive conditions set out in the administrative approval. BPXA has since performed a well intervention to install a tubing patch and an MITIA passed to 4070 psi on July 8, 2012. A witnessed MITIA passed to 2660 psi with water on August 10, 2012. BPXA requested a 60 day miscible gas injection monitoring period for inner annulus repressurization which was completed June 2, 2013 and no indication of inner annulus repressurization was observed. BPXA provided wellhead pressure data and injection rates and pressures demonstrating the elimination of tubing by inner annulus communication while injecting miscible gas. Consequently, Administrative Approval AIO 2413.002 is no longer necessary to the operation of this well. Injection into PBU L-111 will be governed by provisions of the underlying AIO No. 24B.

P.O. Box 196612 Anchorage, AK 99519-6612 RE: Authorized Fluids for EOR and Pressure Maintenance of the Borealis Oil Pool Dear Ms. Cooke: By letter dated April 30, 2012, BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. (BPXA) requested that the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) administratively amend the following Area Injection Orders (AIO): 3A, 4E, 14A, 20, 22E, 24B, 25A, 26B and 31. BPXA requested the amendments in an effort to standardize the fluids authorized for injection for enhanced recovery and pressure maintenance for the oil pools in the Prudhoe Bay Field. BPXA requested the standardization due to the complexity of managing injection operations for multiple pools, with different lists of authorized fluids, which are served by common production facilities. In accordance with terms set forth below, BPXA's request is APPROVED, with a minor change to the wording proposed by BPXA. BPXA proposes that AIO No. 24B be modified to approve the following for EOR and pressure maintenance injection. - Produced water and gas; - Enriched hydrocarbon gas; - Non -hazardous water and water based fluids — (includes seawater, source water, freshwater, domestic wastewater, equipment washwater, sump fluids, hydrotest fluids, firewater, and water with trace chemicals, and other water based fluids with a pH greater than or equal to 2 or less than or equal to 12.5 and flashpoint greater than 10 degrees F); - Fluids introduced to production facilities for the purpose of oil production, plant operations, plant/piping integrity or well maintenance that become entrained in the produced water stream after oil, gas, and water separation in the facility. Includes but not limited to: o Freeze protection fluids; O Fluids in mixtures of oil sent for hydrocarbon recycle; o Corrosion/scale inhibitor fluids; o Anti-foams/emulsion breakers; AIO 24B.003 • • September 4, 2012 Page 2 of 3 o Glycols Non -hazardous glycols and glycol mixtures; Fluids that are used for their intended purpose within the oil production process. Includes: o Scavengers; o Biocides Fluids to monitor or enhance reservoir performance. Includes: o Tracer survey fluids; o Well stimulation fluids; o Reservoir profile modification fluids. As shown above, the list of fluids for which BPXA seeks approval uses the terms "includes" and "includes but not limited to." Words such as "includes" and "including" along with phrases such as "includes but is not limited to" inappropriately delegate to BPXA the authority to determine what additional fluids are approved. Therefore, this approval modifies BPXA's proposal to delete the use of any such language as set forth below. In support of its application, BPXA submitted a fluid compatibility review based on previous orders and laboratory testing. This review showed that the proper handling and treating, including the use of scale inhibitors, of the injection fluids as well as the proper operation and maintenance, including the pumping of scale remover and acid treatments, of the injection wells will prevent or counteract incompatibility effects. Thus there are no operational risks associated with injection of the proposed fluids in this pool. The change proposed by BPXA will result in increased production, is based on sound engineering and geotechnical reasons, does not promote waste or jeopardize correlative rights, and will not result in increased risk of fluid movement into freshwater. Correlative rights are protected because all lands subject to these orders have been unitized. Freshwater is protected by the proper design and completion of the wells, ongoing/periodic mechanical integrity evaluation required for all injection wells and review of the offset wells to ensure that they won't act as conduits to fluid movement. NOW THEREFORE IT IS ORDERED THAT: Rule 2 of AIO 24B is repealed and replaced by the following: Rule 2 Authorized Iniection Fluids Fluids authorized for injection within the affected area are: a) Produced water and gas from Prudhoe Bay Unit processing facilities; b) Enriched hydrocarbon gas; c) Non -hazardous water and water based fluids — (specifically seawater, source water, freshwater, domestic wastewater, equipment washwater, sump fluids, hydrotest fluids, firewater, and water with trace chemicals, and other water based AIO 24B.003 • • September 4, 2012 Page 3 of 3 fluids with a pH greater than or equal to 2 or less than or equal to 12.5 and flashpoint greater than 10 degrees F); d) Fluids introduced to production facilities for the purpose of oil production, plant operations, plant/piping integrity or well maintenance that become entrained in the produced water stream after oil, gas, and water separation in the facility. Specifically: i. Freeze protection fluids; ii. Fluids in mixtures of oil sent for hydrocarbon recycle; iii. Corrosion/scale inhibitor fluids; iv. Anti-foams/emulsion breakers; V. Glycols e) Non -hazardous glycols and glycol mixtures; f) Fluids that are used for their intended purpose within the oil production process. Specifically: i. Scavengers; ii. Biocides g) Fluids to monitor or enhance reservoir performance. Specifically: i. Tracer survey fluids; ii. Well stimulation fluids; iii. Reservoir profile modification fluids. In addition administrative approval A10 24A.001, which specified additional authorized fluids, is hereby repealed. DONE at Anchorage, Alaska and dated September 4, 2 Daniel T. amount, Jr. Commissioner AND APPEAL As provided in AS 31.05.080(a), within 20 days after written notice of the entry of this order or decision, or such further time as the AOGCC grants for good cause shown, a person affected by it may file with the AOGCC an application for reconsideration of the matter determined by it. If the notice was mailed, then the period of time shall be 23 days. An application for reconsideration must set out the respect in which the order or decision is believed to be erroneous. The AOGCC shall grant or refuse the application for reconsideration in whole or in part within 10 days after it is filed. Failure to act on it within 10 -days is a denial of reconsideration. If the AOGCC denies reconsideration, upon denial, this order or decision and the denial of reconsideration are FINAL and may be appealed to superior court. The appeal MUST be filed within 33 days after the date on which the AOGCC mails, OR 30 days if the AOGCC otherwise distributes, the order or decision denying reconsideration, UNLESS the denial is by inaction, in which case the appeal MUST be filed within 40 days after the date on which the application for reconsideration was filed. If the AOGCC grants an application for reconsideration, this order or decision does not become final. Rather, the order or decision on reconsideration will be the FINAL order or decision of the AOGCC, and it may be appealed to superior court. That appeal MUST be filed within 33 days after the date on which the AOGCC mails, OR 30 days if the AOGCC otherwise distributes, the order or decision on reconsideration. As provided in AS 31.05.080(b), "[tlhe questions reviewed on appeal are limited to the questions presented to the AOGCC by the application for reconsideration." In computing a period of time above, the date of the event or default after which the designated period begins to run is not included in the period; the last day of the period is included, unless it falls on a weekend or state holiday, in which event the period runs until 5:00 p.m. on the next day that does not fall on a weekend or state holiday. 0 Fisher, Samantha J (DOA) • From: Fisher, Samantha J (DOA) Sent: Thursday, September 06, 2012 1:52 PM To: 'Aaron Gluzman'; 'Aaron Sorrell'; 'Bruce Williams'; Bruno, Jeff J (DNR); 'CA Underwood'; 'Casey Sullivan'; 'Dale Hoffman'; 'David Lenig'; 'Donna Vukich'; 'Eric Lidji'; 'Erik Opstad'; Franger, James M (DNR); 'Gary Orr; 'Graham Smith'; 'Greg Mattson'; Heusser, Heather A (DNR); 'Jason Bergerson'; 'Jennifer Starck'; 'Jill McLeod'; 'Joe Longo'; King, Kathleen J (DNR); 'Lara Coates'; 'Lois Epstein'; 'Marc Kuck'; 'Marie Steele'; 'Mary Aschoff; 'Matt Gill'; 'Maurizio Grandi'; OilGas, Division (DNR sponsored); 'Patricia Bettis'; Perrin, Don J (DNR); 'Peter Contreras'; Pexton, Scott R (DNR); 'Richard Garrard'; 'Ryan Daniel'; 'Sandra Lemke'; 'Talib Syed'; 'Wayne Wooster'; 'Wendy Wollf; 'William Hutto'; 'William Van Dyke'; '(michael.j.nelson@conocophill ips.com)'; '(Von.L.Hutch ins@conocophill ips.com)'; 'AKDCWellintegrityCoordinator; 'alaska@petrocalc.com'; 'Anna Raff; 'Barbara F Fullmer; 'bbritch'; 'Becky Bohrer'; 'Bill Penrose'; 'Bill Walker'; 'Bowen Roberts'; 'Bruce Webb'; 'Claire Caldes'; 'Cliff Posey'; 'Crandall, Krissell'; 'D Lawrence'; 'dapa'; 'Daryl J.

North Slope, Alaska June 20, 2013 By letter dated May 14, 2013, BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. (BPXA) requested administrative approval to introduce radioactive tracers into the Gathering Center 2 (GC2) production facility for the purpose of facility optimization. After passing through the production facility the radioactive tracers would be entrained in the produced water injection system and injected in enhanced oil recovery and disposal wells. Radioactive tracers are not regulated by the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). The volume of radioactive tracer material will be exceedingly small in proportion to the millions of gallons of produced water that GC2 handles on a daily basis. The half-life of the proposed tracers is less than two days. The exceedingly small volume and low concentration of the radioactive tracer material in the produced water stream will have no impact on its performance as an enhanced oil recovery injectant, and will not result in any formation or reservoir fluid compatibility issues. Therefore, amending the list of approved fluids to include radioactive tracer fluids introduced to production facilities is appropriate. NOW THEREFORE IT IS ORDERED THAT: Rule 2 of AIO 24B is repealed and replaced by the following: Rule 2. Authorized Injection Fluids The fluids authorized by this Order for injection are as follows: a) Produced water and gas from Prudhoe Bay Unit processing facilities; b) Enriched hydrocarbon gas; c) Non -hazardous water and water based fluids — (specifically seawater, source water, freshwater, domestic wastewater, equipment washwater, sump fluids, hydrotest fluids, firewater, and water with trace chemicals, and other water based AIO 2B-004 June 20, 2013 Page 2 of 2 fluids with a pH greater than 2 and less than 12.5 and flashpoint greater than 140 degrees F); d) Fluids introduced to production facilities for the purpose of oil production, plant operations, plant/piping integrity or well maintenance that become entrained in the produced water stream after oil, gas, and water separation in the facility. Specifically: i. Freeze protection fluids; ii. Fluids in mixtures of oil sent for hydrocarbon recycle; iii. Corrosion/scale inhibitor fluids; iv. Anti-foams/emulsion breakers; V. Glycols; vi. Radioactive tracer survey fluids e) Non -hazardous glycols and glycol mixtures; f) Fluids that are used for their intended purpose within the oil production process. Specifically: i. Scavengers; ii. Biocides g) Fluids to monitor or enhance reservoir performance. i. Tracer survey fluids; ii. Well stimulation fluids; iii. Reservoir profile modification fluids.

Prudhoe Bay Unit (PBU) Z-116 (PTD 2111240) Prudhoe Bay Field Borealis Oil Pool Dear Mr. Stemicki: By letter dated February 22, 2019, BP Exploration (Alaska), Inc. (BPXA) requested administrative approval to continue WAG injection in the subject well. In accordance with Rule 9 of Area Injection Order (AIO) 24B.000, the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) hereby GRANTS BPXA's request for administrative approval to continue WAG injection in the subject well. BPXA reported to AOGCC a potential inner annulus repressurization in January 2018 and initiated additional diagnostics and monitoring. BPXA completed a passing state witnessed Mechanical Integrity Test of the Inner Annulus (MITIA) on February 23, 2018 which indicates that Z-116 exhibits at least two competent barriers to the release of well pressure. The well has a recorded IA build up rate of 5 psi/day. BPXA has replaced the dummy gas lift valves to mitigate the IA repressurization and installed wireless gauges on Z -pad wells that allow for real time monitoring and alarm notifications of IA and outer annulus (OA) pressures. AOGCC finds that BPXA is able to manage the IA pressure with periodic pressure bleeds. Accordingly, the AOGCC believes that the well's condition does not compromise overall well integrity so as to threaten human safety or the environment. AIO 24B.006 March 5, 2019 Page 2 of 2 AOGCC's approval to continue WAG injection in PBU Z-116 is conditioned upon the following: 1. BPXA shall record wellhead pressures and injection rate daily; 2. BPXA shall submit to the AOGCC a monthly report of well pressures, injection rates, and pressure bleeds for all annuli. Bleeds to be flagged on the report; 3. BPXA shall perform a mechanical integrity test of the inner annulus (MITIA) every 2 years to the maximum anticipated injection pressure, but not less than 1500 psi; 4. BPXA shall limit the well's IA operating pressure to 2000 psi and the OA operating 5. W pressure to 1000 psi; BPXA shall immediately shut in the well and notify the AOGCC if there is any change in the well's mechanical condition; After well shut in due to a change in the well's mechanical condition, AOGCC approval shall be required to restart injection; and The MIT anniversary date is February 23, 2018.

Prudhoe Bay Unit (PBU) Z-116 (PTD 2111240) Prudhoe Bay Field Borealis Oil Pool Dear Mr. Sternicki: By letter dated February 22, 2019, BP Exploration (Alaska), Inc. (BPXA) requested administrative approval to continue WAG injection in the subject well. In accordance with Rule 9 of Area Injection Order (AIO) 2413.000, the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) hereby GRANTS BPXA's request for administrative approval to continue WAG injection in the subject well. BPXA reported to AOGCC a potential inner annulus repressurization in January 2018 and initiated additional diagnostics and monitoring. BPXA completed a passing state witnessed Mechanical Integrity Test of the Inner Annulus (MITIA) on February 23, 2018 which indicates that Z-116 exhibits at least two competent barriers to the release of well pressure. The well has a recorded lA build up rate of 5 psi/day. BPXA has replaced the dummy gas lift valves to mitigate the IA repressurization and installed wireless gauges on Z -pad wells that allow for real time monitoring and alarm notifications of IA and outer annulus (OA) pressures. AOGCC finds that BPXA is able to manage the IA pressure with periodic pressure bleeds. Accordingly, the AOGCC believes that the well's condition does not compromise overall well integrity so as to threaten human safety or the environment. AIO 24B.006 March 5, 2019 Page 2 of 2 AOGCC's approval to continue WAG injection in PBU Z-116 is conditioned upon the following: 1. BPXA shall record wellhead pressures and injection rate daily; 2. BPXA shall submit to the AOGCC a monthly report of well pressures, injection rates, and pressure bleeds for all annuli. Bleeds to be flagged on the report; 3. BPXA shall perform a mechanical integrity test of the inner annulus (MITIA) every 2 years to the maximum anticipated injection pressure, but not less than 1500 psi; 4. BPXA shall limit the well's IA operating pressure to 2000 psi and the OA operating pressure to 1000 psi; 5. BPXA shall immediately shut in the well and notify the AOGCC if there is any change in the well's mechanical condition; 6. After well shut in due to a change in the well's mechanical condition, AOGCC approval shall be required to restart injection; and 7. The MIT anniversary date is February 23, 2018.

In accordance with 20 AAC 25.556(d), the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) hereby GRANTS, subject to conditions, Hilcorp’s request to amend the administrative approval to continue WAG injection in the subject well. BP Exploration (Alaska), Inc (BPXA) first reported an OA repressurization to AOGCC in October 2004. AOGCC issued AIO 24.004 on January 18, 2006 which was replaced by AIO 24B.005 on March 8, 2016 and the restrictive conditions were amended on January 25, 2017. Hilcorp reported to AOGCC on August 1, 2022 a new slow TxIA pressure communication. Hilcorp has performed additional diagnostics including a passing state-witnessed mechanical integrity test (MIT) of the inner annulus (to a test pressure of 4,120 psi) on August 14, 2022. This indicates that L-105 exhibits at least two competent barriers to the release of well pressure. Hilcorp maintains live transmitters on the inner and outer annulus and alarm functions in the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system that create layers of protection from an over-pressure event. These inner and outer annulus alarms combined with the planned inner and outer annulus operating pressure limits enable AOGCC to continue to authorize gas injection. AOGCC believes Hilcorp can safely manage the existing OA hydrate repressurization and new TxIA communication with periodic pressure bleeds by maintaining the IA to a pressure not to exceed 2,100 psi and OA to a pressure not to exceed 1,500 psi. Accordingly, the AOGCC believes that the well’s condition does not compromise overall well integrity so as to threaten human safety or the environment. AIO 24B.005 Amended September 28, 2022 Page 2 of 2 AOGCC’s approval to continue WAG injection in PBU L-105 is conditioned upon the following: 1) Hilcorp shall record wellhead pressures and injection rate daily; 2) Hilcorp shall submit to the AOGCC a monthly report of well pressures, injection rates, and pressure bleeds for all annuli. Bleeds to be flagged on the report; 3) Hilcorp shall perform a MIT of the inner annulus every two years to the greater of the maximum anticipated injection pressure or 0.25 x packer TVD, but not less than 4,000 psi; 4) Hilcorp shall limit the well’s inner annulus operating pressure to 2,100 psi and the outer annulus operating pressure to 1,500 psi. Audible control room alarms shall be set at or below these limits; 5) Hilcorp shall monitor the inner and outer annulus pressures in real time with its SCADA system; 6) Hilcorp shall maintain the Production Control Center (PCC) remote shut down capability for L-105 when on gas or miscible injectant (MI) operation. During gas/MI injection, the IA protocols will include a drill site operator and PCC alarm set at 2,100 psi, and a high alarm set at 3,000 psi that will prompt the PCC to remotely shut in the well; 7) Hilcorp shall immediately shut in the well and notify the AOGCC if there is any change in the well's mechanical condition; 8) After well shut in due to a change in the well's mechanical condition, AOGCC approval shall be required to restart injection; and 9) The next required MIT shall be completed before or during the month of August 2024.

Request for amendment to AIO 24B.005 for continue WAG injection operations. Dear Chairman Price, Hilcorp North Slope, LLC requests amendment to AIO 24B.005 to allow for continued WAG injection into Borealis well L-105 with slow tubing x inner annulus (IA) communication. L-105 currently operates under AIO 24B.005, approved 01/25/2017 for continued operation with outer annulus (OA) hydrate repressurization and an increased OA MOASP of 1500 psi. L-105 was reported to the AOGCC on 08/01/2022, at which time the well was placed under evaluation for suspected slow tubing by IA pressure communication based on IA pressure trends while on MI service and energized fluid in an IA bleed. On 08/05/2022 a tubing hanger pack-off test (PPPOT-T) passed to 5000 psi and a casing hanger pack-off test (PPPOT-IC) passed to 3500 psi. An online AOGCC witnessed MIT-IA passed to 4120 psi on 08/14/2022. The passing test confirms both the primary and secondary well barrier integrity. Hilcorp North Slope, LLC has determined that well L-105 is safe to operate in its current condition and requests an amendment to AIO 24B.005 for WAG injection based on the following: x IA pressure can be maintained below MOASP by managing the IA repressurization with periodic annular bleeds. x Passing pressure test of the primary and secondary barriers. x IA and OA pressures will be monitored with wireless pressure gauges. If you have any questions, please call me at 907-777-8356 or Oliver Sternicki at 907-564-4891. Sincerely, Stan Golis PBW Operations Manager Attachments Technical Justification TIO/ Injection Plot Wellbore Schematic Sincerely, Stan Golis By Samantha Carlisle at 10:21 am, Aug 31, 2022 Borealis Well L-105 Technical Justification for Administrative Approval Request 08/29/2022 Well History and Status Borealis well L-105 (PTD# 202058) is a WAG injector originally drilled 07/21/2002. In October of 2004 the well began showing sustained outer annulus (OA) pressure due to hydrates entering the surface casing shoe. On 01/18/2006, AIO 24.004 was approved for continued operation with OA repressurization. AIO 24.004 was canceled and AIO 24B.005 approved on 03/08/2016, on the basis of removing the annual liquid leak rate (LLR) requirement and changing the MIT-IA requirement to every 2-years. On 01/25/2017, AIO 24B.005 was amended to increase the OA operating pressure to 1500 psi. Anomalous IA repressurization was first noted in L-105 on 7/31/2022, when bled the IA returned energized fluid indicating possible communication to the tubing. The AOGCC was notified on 08/01/2022 and the well was placed under evaluation for diagnostics. On 08/05/2022 the well passed a PPPOT-T to 5000 psi and a PPPOT-IC to 3500 psi. On 08/14/2022 the well passed a AOGCC witnessed MIT-IA to 4125 psi. Variable MI injection rates, pressures and ambient temperature swings during the evaluation period have created inconsistent IA repressurization rates, but an additional IA bleed on 08/25/2022 again produced a small amount of energized fluid indicating the repressurization is not just thermally induced. Recent Well Events: 08/14/2022 Online AOGCC witnessed MIT-IA passed to 4120 psi. 08/05/2022 PPPOT-T passed to 5000 psi, PPPOT-IC passed to 3500 psi. 08/01/2022 Notification sent to the AOGCC, well placed under evaluation. 07/31/2022 IA bleed with energized fluid, possible TxIA pressure communication noted. 01/17/2022 Passed online AOGCC witnessed MIT-IA to 4125 psi. Barrier and Hazard Evaluation The primary and secondary barriers systems consist of the tubing and production casing and associated hardware. A passing online pressure test conducted on 08/14/2022, which tested both barriers, demonstrates competent primary and secondary barrier systems. Due to the low IA repressurization rate no logging or repair attempt is planned at this time due to the low likelihood of locating the leak point. Proposed Operating and Monitoring Plan 1. Record wellhead pressures and injection rates daily; 2. Submit to the AOGCC a monthly report of well pressures, injection rates, and pressure bleeds for all annuli. Bleeds to be flagged on the report; 3. Perform a MITIA every two years to the greater of the maximum anticipated wellhead injection pressure or 0.25 x packer TVD, but not less than 1,500 psi; 4. Limit the well’s inner annulus operating pressure to 2,100 psi. Audible control room alarms shall be set at or below these limits; 5. Limit the well’s outer annulus operating pressure to 1,500 psi. Audible control room alarms shall be set at or below these limits; 6. Monitor the inner and outer annulus pressures in real time with its SCADA system; 7. Maintain the Production Control Center (PCC) remote shut down capability for L-105 when on gas or miscible injectant (MI) operation; 8. Immediately shut in the well and notify the AOGCC if there is any change in the well's mechanical condition; 9. After well shut in due to a change in the well's mechanical condition, AOGCC approval shall be required to restart injection; TIO/ Injection Plot Wellbore Schematic CAUTION: External sender.

No increase to Maximum Operating Annulus Surface Pressure (MOASP) is required. L-119A was flagged on 03/17/2021 as having possible slow TAA communication while on MI and was placed under evaluation at which time it was reported to the AOGCC. To confirm the primary and secondary barriers a passing AOGCC witnessed M IT4A was conducted on 05/25/2021 to 3291 psi while on MI. Hilcorp North Slope, LLC has determined that well L-119A is safe to operate in its current condition and requests an AA for continued WAG injection based on the following: • IA pressure can be maintained below MOASP by managing the IA repressuftation with periodic annular bleeds. • MIT -IA passed to 3291 psi. • IA and CA pressures will be monitored with wireless pressure gauges. If you have any questions, please call me at 907-564-5231 or Ryan Holt/ Andy Ogg at 659- 5102. Sincerely, Stan Golis PBW Operations Manager Borealis Well L-119A Technical Justification for Administrative Approval Request 05/26/2021 Well History and Status Well L-119A is a WAG injector that was originally drilled in April 2002 and coil sidetracked in February 2020. L-119A was flagged on 03/17/2021 as having possible slow TxIA communication while on MI at which time it was reported to the AOGCC and placed under evaluation. A negative pack -off test of the tubing hanger passed on 03/1912021 with the well on MI. On 05/05/2021 the IA was loaded with 9.8 ppg brine and extended packing dummy gas lift valves were set in station #2 and #3 in an attempt to mitigate the IA repressurization. After this work was completed the well was placed back on MI beginning 05/09/2021 to monitor for repressurization, but the well continued to show slow TxIA communication based on IA pressure trends. To confirm the primary and secondary barriers a passing AOGCC witnessed MIT -IA was conducted on 05/25/2021 to 3291 psi while on MI. Recent Well Events: 05/25/2021 AOGCC witnessed MIT -IA passed to 3291 psi. 05/05/2021 IA loaded with 9.8 ppg brine and extended packing dummy gas lift valves set. MIT -IA to 2500 psi passed. 03/19/2021 Negative tubing hangerpack-off test while on MI passed 03/1712021 IA pressure anomaly noted and reported to AOGCC 04/1012020 AOGCC witnessed MIT -IA passed to 1937 psi. 04/02/2020 Offline MIT -IA passed to 3253 psi. Barrier and Hazard Evaluation The primary and secondary barriers systems consist of the tubing and production casing and associated hardware. A passing pressure test of the inner annulus to 3291 psi on 05/25/2021, which tests both barriers, demonstrates competent primary and secondary barrier systems. No further diagnostics/ repair attempts are proposed at this time due to the low probability of success in being able to locate the communication point based on the low leak rate. Pressure on the inner annulus will be maintained below MOASP of 2100 psi when the well is on-line with periodic bleeds of the IA. Proposed Operating and Monitoring Plan 1. Record wellhead pressures and injection rate daily. 2. Submit a report monthly of well pressures and injection rates to the AOGCC. 3. Perform a 2-year MIT -IA to maximum anticipated injection pressure. 4. IA MOASP= 2100 psi, OA MOASP= 1000 psi 5. The well will be shut-in and the AOGCC notified if there is any change in the wells mechanical condition.

Area Injection Orders 3C, 4G, 22F, and 24B Prudhoe Bay Unit (PBU) Dear Mr, Sternicki: By letter dated March 9, 2020, BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. (BPXA) requested administrative approval to change the inner annulus (IA) maximum operating pressure on 36 wells. This was requested in parallel with a BPXA request to increase the IA operating pressure for producing wells under Conservation Order CO 492. After the initial request was received from BPXA, Hilcorp North Slope, LLC (HNS) acquired BPXA North Slope assets July 1, 2020 and became operator of the PBU. On July 29, 2020, AOGCC received an email from HNS stating "Hilcorp, as the new operator of the BPXA assets has reviewed and approve of the submitted request to the AOGCC pertaining to increasing lA NOL in GPB." AOGCC issued CO 492A on October 1, 2020 that increased the notification IA operating pressure from 2000 psi to 2100 psi for PBU wells not processed through the Lisburne Production Facility. In accordance with Rule 9 of Area Injection Order (AIO) 4G and 24B, Rule 10 of AIO 3C, and Rule 11 of AIO 22F, the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) hereby GRANTS HNS's request for administrative approval to change the maximum IA operating pressure for the 36 wells to 2100 psi as detailed in the accompanying table. The administrative action rules contained within the Area Injection Orders allow the AOGCC to administratively waive or amend the requirements of any rule as long as the change does not promote waste of jeopardize correlative rights, is based on sound engineering and geoscience principles, and will not result in an increased risk of fluid movement into freshwater.

Dear Mr. Price, BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. requests an amendment to the injection well administrative approvals listed in Table 1 such that the inner anulus (IA) normal operating limits (NOL) are changed to 2100 psi. The request to amend the IA NOLs of the wells listed in Table 1 is in parallel with a request to amend CO 492 such that IA NOL can be increase to 2100 psi for the majority of development wells in the Prudhoe Bay field. For consistency across the field the intent is to change IA NOL for all injection wells excluding: Class I disposal wells, Lisburne Injection wells, Well 09-16 (PTD: 1770370).

Gas lift header pressure at many of the drill sites and pads in the Prudhoe Bay field (excluding wells processed through the Lisburne Process Center) regularly exceeds the 2000 psi IA NOL set for development wells. Gas lift compressor outlet pressures are commonly set at 2100 psi. Historical gas lift pressures can be seen in Figure 1 & 2 for reference. The legacy IA NOL value of 2000 psi was set to remain compliant with Conservation Order No. 492 rule 3(a) and 6(a). Prior to the installation and monitoring of wireless annulus pressure gauges this was not as large of a problem due to one IA pressure read being recorded via mechanical gauge daily per well. If a pressure read exceeded the 2000 psi NOL it was reported to Well Integrity and evaluated to determine if the excursion was SCP or not. Currently all wells in the Prudhoe Bay field have the inner annulus pressures monitored in real-time by either the EOA or WOA production center board operators. The board operators are notified with an alert when the IA pressure of a well exceeds the set NOL value of 2000 psi. This ensures a timely notification and response to any potential excursion event. With the utilization of the wireless annulus pressure gauge alerting it has become an ongoing problem where wells supplied with gas lift pressure are regularly setting off alerts due to the gas lift supply pressure exceeding the 2000 psi NOL and not due to SCP as intended. This excessive alerting has the potential to desensitize workers to possible hazardous occurrences. Increasing IA NOL from 2000 psi to 2100 psi for development wells would eliminate the majority of these false NOL excursion alerts and allow resources to be more focused on response and evaluation of probable SCP events. All development wells are included in this request in an effort to reduce the complexity of the IA NOL change and management across the Prudhoe Bay field. This reasoning for reduced complexity in management of IA NOLs extends to injection wells in the Prudhoe Bay field. Alignment with the change applied to development wells is important to minimize variability of IA NOLs and simplify the management of all wells. The majority of injection wells in the Prudhoe Bay field currently have IA NOLs set to 2000 psi. This 2000 psi NOL was applied by BPXA for consistency across the field and is not tied to a requirement in an Area Injection Order other than for specific Administrative Approvals on individual wells listed in Table 1 which is what BPXA is requesting amendment to. The intent is to change IA NOLs for all injectors to 2100 psi excluding Class I disposal wells, Lisburne Injection wells and Well 09-16 (PTD: 1770370). This increase of 100 psi to the IA NOL is well within the design parameters of injection wells across the Prudhoe Bay field and the IA NOL increase would not reduce the ability to identify possible annular communication in these wells.

No increase to normal operating limit (NOL — formerly MOASP) is required. Z-116 was identified to have anomalous IA repressurization in January 2018. At that time, the repressurization rate was 15 psi/day. Before applying for an AA, BPXA replaced the existing dummy gas lift valves with extended packing dummy gas lift valves, in an attempt to mitigate the IA repressurization. This slowed the repressurization rate to 5 psi/day. In preparation for the administrative approval request, an AOGCC witnessed MIT -IA was performed on 02/23/18 and passed to 3,238 psi. Wireless gauges have been installed on Z -pad wells that allow for real time monitoring of IA and OA pressures. BPXA has determined that well Z-116 is safe to operate in its current condition and requests an AA for WAG (including MI) injection based on the following: • IA pressure stabilizes below NOL and should not require bleeds during normal operation. • MIT -IA passed to 1.1 times maximum anticipated injection pressure. • IA and OA pressures will be monitored with wireless pressure gauges. If you have any questions, please call me at 907-564-4301 or Jack Lau/Adrienne McVey at 559- 5102.

Well L-105 was approved for continued WAG injections per AA AIO 246.005 on March 4, 2016 for OA repress u rization. The OA pressure now stabilizes at 1100 psi. BPXA requests an amendment to AIO 246.005 to include raising the OA NOL from 1000 psi to 1500 psi. An engineering analysis and well barrier risk assessment have been completed and it has been determined that raising OA NOL to 1500 psi is well within the design limits of the installed equipment. In summary, BPXA has determined that Prudhoe Bay well L-105 is safe to operate with the increase in OA (7" x 9-5/8") NOL to 1500 psi. BPXA requests amendment to AIO 246.005 for continued WAG injection operations. If you have any questions, please call me at 748-1140 or Jack Lau/ Adrienne McVey at 659- 5102.

The initial primary cement job of the 7" casing was aborted when the cement began setting up in the batch mixer. An attempt was made to circ out the approximately 8 bbl of cement that had been pumped prior to abandoning the job, and it was initially thought to be successful. After circing, 20 bbl of drilling mud was pumped down the 7"x9- 5/8" annulus to ensure injectivity in the event freeze protect was required. For the next 10 hours, mud was pumped, 10 bbl at a time, every 20 minutes while the 7" was reciprocated. The primary cement job was then pumped, with the assumption that —148 bbl cement was placed behind pipe (calculated TOC — 2827'; SC Shoe at 2856'). The day after the cement job, an attempt was made to inject in the 7"x9-5/8" annulus. It pressured up to 4,200 psi. The casing head was removed and a "doughy mix" of cement and drilling mud was encountered. Attempts were made to dissolve/flush the substance, but were unsuccessful. The annulus would pressure up to 4,200 psi with no injectivity, and then bleed off to 3,000 - 3,200 psi, until pressure was finally intentionally bled off to zero. Once the well was put on injection, the OA would pressure up to 1,000 — 1,100 psi, but periodic bleeds were unable to manage pressure below NOL of 1,000 psi. The OA pressure source is 99.3% methane and less than .1 % CO2 (sample taken 11/5/11) which indicates that the gas is from shallow hydrates. In 2006, an Administrative Approval was granted by AOGCC for continued operation of L-105 with elevated OA pressure. This AA was amended in 2016 to remove the OA injection testing and changed the MIT -IA frequency to every 2 years. Historically this well has exhibited very low OA LLRs between 0.06 gpm to 0.73 gpm @ 3,000 psi. Based on the verification of mechanical integrity of two barriers via multiple passing MIT-IAs and the established very low LLRs of the OA, a deviation is warranted to raise the OA NOL to 1,500 psi. Raising NOL will also reduce the risk associated with multiple and repetitive OA pressure bleeds currently required to maintain OA pressure below current NOL of 1,000 psi.

Foerster Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission 333 West 7th Avenue Anchorage, Alaska 99501 RECEIVED by FEB 2 9 2016 AOGCC 0 Subject: Prudhoe Bay Unit Well L-105 (PTD #202058) Request for amendment to NO 24.004 Dear Ms. Foerster, BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. requests an amendment to Administrative Approval NO 24.004 for continued gas injection into PBU L-105 (PTD #202058) Well L-105 was approved for continued gas injection on January 18, 2006 per NO 24.004 due to high OA pressure. BPXA would like to request two amendments to A10 24.004, these are to change the MIT -IA frequency from 12 months to 24 months and eliminate the LLR-OA requirement. The first requested change is to the required condition for BPXA to perform an annual MIT -IA to 4000 psi. L-105 has passed 19 MIT-IAs to 4000 psi since 2006. Competent primary and secondary barriers have been proven over the last 10 years with no evidence of impairment. BPXA requests to change the required MIT -IA frequency to every 24 months. The second requested change is to the required condition that BPX perform an annual LLR-OA to 3000 psi. The purpose of the required LLR test was brought into question in correspondence between BPXA and the AOGCC in January 2014. The AOGCC response was that testing the OA holds no value. The AOGCC recommendation was to revise NO 24.004 to remove this requirement. In summary, BPXA requests to revise conditions 3 and 4 of NO 24.004 for continued gas injection. If you have any questions, please call me at 564-4301 or Whitney Pettus/ Kevin Parks at 659-5102.

My recommendation is to revise the Admin Approvals that rely on LLRT's as condition of approval. Specific to PBU L-105 (AIO 24.004), confirming tubing and IA as barriers to injected fluid release should be sufficient justification for continued injection. There is no value in testing the OA when you know it will fail; gas sample analysis is option as required in AIO 3.025. Spreadsheet is attached in Excel and pdf versions.

Below is a summary of my findings. A leak rate test is typically done to determine what type of diagnostic/intervention work needs to be done when investigating an anomaly. The purpose of the annual liquid leak rate for L-105 was to ascertain if downhole conditions changed. No criteria was established for what an acceptable rate would be. The rate has changed slightly from year to year due to how small a volume used, temperatures, etc. If there was a change on some order of magnitude, this would not necessarily indicate a deterioration in the wellbore integrity; rather a change in condition of the OA shoe. The annual MIT -IA confirms integrity, not the OA test. There is another WAG well that has an external hydrate source: N -08A (PTD #2000090). For this well AIO 3.025 requires a 2 year MIT -IA and a 2 yr OA gas sample. This would be an alternative method to confirm the OA gas is dissimilar to the injected gas. 4.

As noted during our conversation, ultimately I am trying to understand the LLR test in the context of what we are doing with injection well administrative approvals where the conditions of approval establish boundaries for continued operation. Typically we have a pass -fail criteria associated with a test that allow us to determine when conditions warrant further evaluation or suspending injection activities until repairs can be completed. According to our records, there are only 2 wells that have the LLR test as part of an AA condition of approval — PBU L-105 (PTD 2020580; AIO 24.004) and PBU 11-29 (PTD 1940520; Sundry 303-288), so the LLR test is unusual (from the injection waiver standpoint). To reiterate my questions: 1) What is the purpose of a LLR test? 2) Is there any pass -fail criteria for the LLR test? If just used to trend the rate, what deviation from the trend becomes a concern? 3) Is there something else (other than LLR test) that assures us the well has proper integrity to continue injection operations? Also as mentioned, I have attached a simple spreadsheet that calculates the LLR from info presented in the MIT forms and WSR's you provided. Several of the tests calculate differently than reported — these are highlighted. Thanks again for your help.

The GC2 Capacity Study involves the injection of low level radioactive tracers upstream of the slug catchers in GC2 to study the separation efficiency of various vessels. Once injected into the vessels, the tracer will be commingled with production fluids at the gathering center, follow the normal separation process, and be routed to the Class 11 well system for either enhanced oil recovery or injection. The project is scheduled to start June 20, 2013. Here are responses to your questions: 1. Evidence and legal authority in support of BP's assertion that radioactive tracer wastes are not regulated under RCRA; RCRA regulates hazardous solid wastes. Therefore, the threshold question when determining the RCRA status of a material is whether it is a "solid waste." In order to be a solid waste, a material must be "discarded." RCRA section 1004(27).1 Therefore, products being used for their intended purposes are not wastes because they are not being discarded. In this case, the facility will be injecting low level radioactive tracers upstream of the slug catchers in GC2 to study the separation efficiency of various vessels. The purpose of this injection is not to discard or dispose of the tracers, but to utilize them for their intended, useful purpose (conducting the separation efficiency study). RCRA does not regulate this activity because the purpose of the injection is not to discard the tracers. 1 42 U.S.C. § 6903(27). BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. 900 E. Benson Blvd P. 0.

RCRA does not regulate this activity because the purpose of the injection is not to discard the tracers. 1 42 U.S.C. § 6903(27). Once used, the radioactive tracers are not regulated under RCRA because they are specifically excluded from the definition of "solid waste" under 40 CFR 261.4(a)(4). Radioactive tracers are instead regulated under the Atomic Energy Act. As you note in your letter, radioactive tracer waste is not E&P exempt because such waste is not uniquely associated with oil and gas; many other industries use radioactive tracers. 2. Evidence to support a determination whether radioactive tracer waste is hazardous or whether it exhibits hazardous characteristics under 40 CFR Part 261 As noted above, radioactive waste is excluded from the definition of "solid waste" under RCRA. Therefore, such waste is not a "hazardous solid waste" regulated under the statute. 3. Evidence and legal authority to support a claim that radioactive tracer waste may otherwise fall under a RCRA exemption. Disposal of the mixture comprised of produced water and the radioactive tracers is covered under the RCRA Mixture Rule, which allows non -hazardous, non- E&P exempt waste (e.g., used radioactive tracers) to be commingled with E&P exempt waste (produced water), with the resulting mixture retaining the E&P exemption.(See page 17 of the EPA RCRA E&P Guidance Document you cited in your May 31, 2013 email.) Note that this result is consistent with how produced water exposed to radioactive tracers injected during well logging is regulated as E&P exempt waste. We hope that this explanation satisfies your request for clarification. As noted above, the study is scheduled to begin June 20, 2013. Please contact as soon as possible if you have additional questions or want to discuss further at 907-564-5501 or contact Alison Cooke at 564-4838.

(BPXA) requests approval under Area Injection Order (AIO) 3A Rule 1, NO 22E Rule 10, NO 24B Rule 2, NO 25A Rule 3, and NO 26B Rule 3 to introduce radioactive tracer into the Gathering Center 2 (GC2) production facility for the purpose of oil production, plant operations, and plant/piping integrity. Radioactive tracers are not regulated under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) so the fluids would not be designated hazardous or non -hazardous. Therefore, the diluted radioactive tracer which BP proposes to use at GC2 would not be categorized as hazardous or non -hazardous under RCRA. The tracer will comingle with produced fluids and be diluted prior to enhanced oil recovery (EOR) reservoir injection. Mixing the radioactive tracer with produced fluids meets the criteria of fluids suitable for Class II disposal well injection. The tracer has been deemed to have no negative impact on the reservoir. Alyeska Pipeline Service Company has been informed of the test and noted no concerns with handling the diluted tracer. In order to keep standardized and consistent language referencing the fluids authorized for injection for enhanced recovery and pressure maintenance for all Prudhoe Bay Field (PBF) AIOs, BPXA also requests that radioactive tracer fluids Ms. Cathy Foerster May 14, 2013 Page 2 be specifically included as fluids introduced to production facilities for the purpose of oil production, plant operations, and plant/piping integrity in AIO 4E Rule 1, AIO 14A Rule 1, AIO 20 Rule 1, and AIO 31 Rule 3. GC2 Optimization The West End Developments program consists of several projects to debottleneck base production and increase future GC2 production. As part of the program, the optimization of GC2 and its separation capabilities will be reviewed. The current separation and sand handling capabilities will be evaluated in the study and changes will likely be recommended to process future production streams. Capacity Study The study will determine current vessel inefficiencies and propose upgrades to the facility. Radioactive tracer is needed to calculate the residence time of the oil and water phases in the slugcatchers and the water residence time in the skim tanks. For this determination, a total of 300 mL of radioactive tracer (lanthanum nitrate hexahydrate) will be injected upstream of the GC2 slugcatchers and skim tanks to trace the water phase. It is expected that minor amounts of the 200 mL bromoanthracene oil tracer will be carried into the produced water system. The half-lives of each tracer used in this study will be less than 2 days. Reservoir tracers typically used include cobalt -57, cobalt 60, carbon-14, or tritium which have half-lives of 270 days, 5.26 years, 5730 years, and 12.32 years, respectively. The shorter half-life in conjunction with the smaller injection sizes proposed exposes the reservoir to minimal radioactivity for a short duration (see table and chart Appendix 1). Alternatives to radioactive tracer have been considered. The main benefit of a tracer is the ability to detect concentration as a function of time, which correlates to vessel residence time and can characterize inefficiencies of internals. A non -radioactive tracer would require frequent sampling, and there is a possibility the tracer would pass through the system between samples, yielding no data. The ability to characterize vessel inefficiencies would be compromised with a non -radioactive tracer. Correct assessment of the separation capabilities of GC2 is necessary to determine appropriate upgrades to the facility for increased separation capacity. The most effective way to evaluate the separation capability of the facility is to use a radioactive tracer. To summarize, BPXA requests Commission approval to Ms. Cathy Foerster May 14, 2013 Page 3 inject dilute volumes of radioactive tracer (that have been used in production facilities for diagnostic purposes) in all PBF AIOs and in Class II disposal wells.

Benson Boulevard Anchorage, AK 99519-6612 USA RECEI V Y E MAY 022012 AOG%.# ; Re: Prudhoe Bay Field Area Injection Orders, Standardization of Authorized Fluids for EOR and Pressure Maintenance Dear Ms. Foerster, This letter is to request a change to Prudhoe Bay Field (PBF) Area Injection Orders (AIO) to standardize the language in the rule referencing the fluids authorized for injection for enhanced recovery and pressure maintenance. BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. (BPXA) is requesting this change in order to address the complexity of field operations with multiple pools serviced by common facilities and potential confusion that results from the differing language in the various orders. This proposed change is intended to clarify and document the fluids that are authorized for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and pressure maintenance injection within the PBF and provide greater compliance assurance for our field operations. A review of AIOs for pools in the PBF indicates that some contain very general language and some are very specific in defining which fluids are authorized for injection. The language defining fluids that may be injected has changed over time in successive versions of some of the orders. For instance, NO 4 language has changed from "non -hazardous fluids", to "Class II fluids" to "authorized fluids". In addition, some fluids have received specific authorization via administrative approvals. The diversity of language and changes over time has resulted in confusion over which fluids are actually authorized for injection. The enclosed list (Attachment A) shows the various PBF pools, AIOs, and a summary of the current rule and/or administrative approvals that authorize fluids that may be injected for purposes of pressure maintenance and enhanced recovery. Also included is a summary of findings regarding the compatibility of fluids authorized for injection. As discussed with your staff, BPXA proposes to standardize the list of authorized fluids for the various pools within the PBF. Attachment B is proposed language for this change. In some pools, additional clarification may be required to capture specific conditions or restrictions contained in current orders.

The administrative approval was for continued water injection with slow inner annulus repressurization. A slickline intervention was performed on May 25, 2008 to replace the dummy gas lift valves with new valves with extended packing in an attempt to eliminate the IA repressurization. Monitoring of wellhead pressures since the intervention confirms the IA pressure remains stable when on MI injection. A plot of wellhead pressures has been included for reference.

Well V-112 exhibits inner annulus re -pressurization when on miscible gas injection. The well was swapped to produced water injection and subsequently passed a pressure test of the inner annulus to 3000 psi, indicating the tubing and production casing are competent. Based upon sound engineering practice, two barriers have been established and the well can be safely operated. The well will remain on water injection and, consequently, no repairs are planned at this time. In summary, BPXA believes Prudhoe Bay well V-112 is safe to operate as stated above and requests administrative approval for continued water injection operations.

The well was swapped to water injection and a MIT -IA to 3000 psi passed on 03/16/08 indicating competent tubing and production casing. Recent Well Events: > 07/13/06: AOGCC MITIA Passed to 2200 psi > 02/20/08: Notified AOGCC of TAA Comm > 03/11/08: MIT -IA Passed to 3000 psi > 03/16/08: AOGCC MIT -IA Passed to 3000 psi Barrier Evaluation The primary and secondary barrier systems consist of tubing and production casing and associated hardware. A pressure test of the inner annulus passed to 3000 psi, demonstrating competent primary and secondary barrier systems. Proposed Operating and Monitoring Plan 1. Record wellhead pressures and injection rate daily. 2. Submit a report monthly of well pressures and injection rates to the AOGCC. 3. Perform a 4 -year MIT -IA to 1.2 times maximum anticipated injection pressure. 4. The well will be shut-in and the AOGCC notified if there is any change in the wells mechanical condition.
