February 7, 2024 Notice of Public Hearing STATE OF ALASKA ALASKA OIL AND GAS CONSERVATION COMMISSION 333 W. 7th Avenue Anchorage, Alaska 99501 Re: Order waiving and modifying certain requirements of 20 AAC 25.280 concerning Well Work Operations, Sundry Application and Reporting Requirements. ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) Docket Number: CO-24-005 Conservation Order 815 Nikaitchuq Field Nikaitchuq Unit Nikaitchuq Schrader Bluff Oil Pool April 17, 2024 IT APPEARING THAT: 1. Per Other Order 201 issued on October 3, 2023, the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) required that Eni Petroleum US LLC (Eni) develop a Sundry Matrix to waive and modify certain requirements of 20 AAC 25.280 concerning Well Work Operations, Sundry Application and Reporting Requirements for the oil pool within the Nikaitchuq Unit. 2. The oil pool defined in the Nikaitchuq Unit is the Nikaitchuq Schrader Bluff Oil Pool (NSBOP) governed by Conservation Order 639 and Area Injection Order 36. 3. Pursuant to 20 AAC 25.540, the AOGCC tentatively scheduled a public hearing for March 12, 2024. On February 7, 2024, the AOGCC published notice of the opportunity for that hearing on the State of Alaska’s Online Public Notice website and on the AOGCC’s website, electronically transmitted the notice to all persons on the AOGCC’s email distribution list and mailed printed copies of the notice to all persons on the AOGCC’s mailing distribution list. On February 8, 2024, the AOGCC published the notice in the Anchorage Daily News. 4. No written comments were filed with the AOGCC and no request for a hearing was made. 5. The tentatively scheduled hearing was vacated. 6. AOGCC’s records provide sufficient information upon which to make an informed decision. FINDINGS: 1. Under 20 AAC 25.280(a) operators are required to file an Application for Sundry Approvals (Form 10-403) and receive approval prior to performing well workovers (i.e., perforating or reperforating casing, stimulation, pulling tubing, altering casing, and repairing wells) on any well. 2. Under 20 AAC 25.280(d) operators are required to file a Report of Sundry Well Operations (Form 10-404), including supporting documentation, within 30 days after completing workover operations. 3. Work within the production casing/liner or the production tubing is generally standard and routine in development and service wells in the NSBOP. However, some routine work Conservation Order 815 April 17, 2024 Page 2 of 4 within service wells requires additional monitoring due to the requirements of the Underground Injection Control (UIC) Program delegated to the AOGCC by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). 4. Alteration of casing which provides a physical barrier between the wellbore and the subsurface formations in development and service wells is not routine and does not warrant waiving the requirement of advance approval. 5. Well workovers on development wells in the NSBOP generally does not call for additional monitoring beyond that imposed by regulation. 6. Injection well workover operations frequently call for additional scrutiny, including mechanical integrity tests and cement quality logs. 7. The attached “Well Work Operations, Sundry Application and Reporting Requirement, Sundry Matrix, Conservation Order 815, Operator Eni” (attachment) sets forth the sundry application reporting requirements applicable to various types of workover operations in the NSBOP as mentioned above. CONCLUSIONS: 1. Modifying or waiving the requirements of 20 AAC 25.280(a) for development wells in the NSBOP is based on sound engineering and geoscience principles, will not promote waste, jeopardize correlative rights, or result in an increased risk of fluid movement into freshwater. 2. Modifying or waiving the requirements of 20 AAC 25.280(a) for service wells in the NSBOP is based on sound engineering and geoscience principles, will not promote waste, jeopardize correlative rights, or result in an increased risk of fluid movement into freshwater. 3. Modifying or waiving the requirements of 20 AAC 25.280(a) for service wells in the NSBOP comports with the requirements of the Class II UIC program. 4. Increased regulatory scrutiny for those wells reported to the AOGCC in compliance with the Sustained Casing Pressure Rules for production wells (Conservation Order 639, Rule 13) is appropriate. 5. Increased regulatory scrutiny for any well with compromised ability to contain pressure is appropriate. 6. Increased regulatory scrutiny for work to repair casing (20 AAC 25.280(a)(4)) is appropriate. 7. The Attachment sets out the sundry approval and reporting requirements for frequently performed well operations in the NSBOP. NOW, THEREFORE IT IS ORDERED THAT: In addition to the statewide regulatory requirements not superseded by this order, the following rules apply to the affected areas established in Conservation Order 639 for the NSBOP. Conservation Order 815 April 17, 2024 Page 3 of 4 Rule 1 Except as provided in Rules 4 and 5, submission of an Application for Sundry Approvals (Form 10-403) and supporting documentation for workover activities described in 20 AAC 25.280(a) is waived or modified for development wells, as provided in the Attachment. Rule 2 Except as provided in Rules 4 and 5, submission of an Application for Sundry Approvals (Form 10-403) and supporting documentation for workover activities described in 20 AAC 25.280(a) is waived or modified for service wells, as provided in the Attachment. Rule 3 The Attachment summarizing the sundry approval and reporting requirements applies to operations in the specific well types. Rule 4 The waivers provided under Rule 1 above do not apply to wells that are required to be reported to the AOGCC under the provisions of the Sustained Casing Pressure Rule in Conservation Order 639, Rule 13. Rule 5 The AOGCC reserves the right to require an Application for Sundry Approvals for a particular well or for a particular operation on any well. Rule 6 Nothing in this order precludes filing an Application for Sundry Approvals (Form 10-403) in advance of any well work. Rule 7 Unless notice and public hearing are otherwise required, the AOGCC may administratively waive or amend the requirements of any rule stated above or administratively amend the Attachment, 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. Rule 8 The Attachment applies while Eni is the operator of the Nikaitchuq Field. Rule 9 No change of operator will be effective until the current operator requests the AOGCC to amend this order to change the name of the operator and the AOGCC approves the required designation of operator form.
