Subject:Re: [EXT] Fwd: KLU A-6 (PTD 225-024) perf sundry
Bryan,
The reservoir pressure history for KLU A-6 is a bit unusual. A static pressure survey was performed
immediately after the deepest perf interval was shot. A flowing production log a couple of weeks later
with multiple zones open indicated a higher flowing bottomhole pressure than the original measured
static pressure. More details below.
On 7/10/25 the deepest interval in well KLU A-6 was perforated, 8483-8503 MDBKB (referenced to 7/6/25
Ak Eline CBL) .
A electric line deployed pressure survey (image below) was performed immediately after perforating the
first interval on 7/10/25. This pressure survey indicated 3302 psi, 128 F at 8300 MDBKB, 7309 TVDBKB, or
0.45 psi/ft, 8.7 ppg EMW. Perforating continued after the pressure survey with another 6 perf intervals
added for a total of 7 perforation intervals.
A flowing production log was performed 7/25/25. This log indicated 3656 psi, 120 F, at 8300 MDBKB,
7309 TVDBKB or 0.5 psi/ft, 9.6 ppg EMW. It is uncertain why the measured flowing bottomhole pressure
was higher than the previously measured reservoir pressure. One explanation is that the deepest perf
interval in the well was not the highest-pressure interval i.e. one or more other perf intervals added later
were at a higher pressure.
A 2-day pressure build up was conducted 8/9-11/25. The shut-in wellhead pressure at the end up the
pressure build up time period was 2380 psi. Assuming gas to the top perforation at 7653 MDBKB, 6725
TVDBKB, the estimated reservoir pressure at the top perforation was 2750 psi (= 2380 psi SITP + (0.055
psi/ft * 6725 TVDBKB)). Estimated gradient of 0.41 psi/ ft (=2750 psi/ 6725 TVDBKB), 7.9 ppg EMW.
Let me know if any additional information is needed.
Thanks,
Dan

Dan,
Same issue as for the other wells with requested perfs being above shallowest available. In this case Furie will
only be able to add the deepest 3 sets of perfs requested in the sundry, nothing above ~5350’ TVD. Will need to
plug off deepest perfs or prove they are depleted before adding perfs above this depth.

Mel -
Please see the attached CBL for the KLU A-6.
There is a snip from the interval with the liner hanger/packer and just below. Its easy to see good cement from about 5450 and below.
I believe there some damping/cement above that and up to the packer at 5,325.
Either way, there is good isolation of the zone and covers the span of perforations (listed in the table below. Please note, there are also perforations approved
between 8,345 and 8,355 MD).
We seek your permission to proceed with perforations.
Thank you,
Michael

Good afternoon,
Attached is a 10-403 for adding initial Beluga perforations to the KLU A-6 well with attached
the Wellbore Schematic, Summarized Operations Plan, and table of Proposed Perforations.
The KLU A-6 well was recently drilled and is awaiting perforating operations. Furie Operating
Alaska, LLC plans to move a Eline unit onto the Julius R Platform once the Spartan 151 rig
leaves location. A CBL will be run and recorded. Selected Beluga intervals will then be
perforated. The well will then be placed on production.
Operations are expected to commence approximately June 28th, 2025. If you have questions,
please feel free to contact me at 907-378-3354.
Thank you,

Re: Furie Operating Alaska KLU A-6 (PTD 225-024) 10-403 Initial Beluga Perforations
Mr. McLellan,
Enclosed is the 10-403 for adding initial Beluga per forations to the KLU A-6 well with attached the
Wellbore Schematic, Summarized Operations Plan, and table of Proposed Perforations.
The KLU A-6 well was recently drilled and is awaiting perforating operations. Furie Operating Alaska, LLC
plans to move a Eline unit onto the Julius R Platform once the Spartan 151 rig leaves location. A CBL will
be run and recorded. Selected Beluga intervals will then be perforated. The well will then be placed on
production.
Operations are expected to commence approximately June 28
th, 2025. If you have questions, please feel
free to contact me at 907-378-3354.

Furie is currently drilling the intermediate hole section on the KLUA6 well( PTD # 225-024) and
the geological horizons and coming in 40’-60’ deeper than planned. This parallels the recent
KLU A-5 results. We have a sufficient amount of 47# casing for the planned TD but may need
to supplement it with several joints of 40# to accommodate a deeper TD. We would place the
40# in the lower portion of the string but above the liner setting area. Attached are the casing
safety factor for 40# casing option. Furie is requesting AOGCC approval of this option.
Sincerely,
Bob Laule

Dear Mr. Duncan
Enclosed is the approved application for the permit to drill the above referenced well.
Per Statute AS 31.05.030(d)(2)(B) and Regulation 20 AAC 25.071, composite curves for all well
logs run must be submitted to the AOGCC within 90 days after completion, suspension, or
abandonment of this well, or within 90 days of acquisition of the data, whichever occurs first.
This permit to drill does not exempt you from obtaining additional permits or an approval required
by law from other governmental agencies and does not authorize conducting drilling operations
until all other required permits and approvals have been issued. In addition, the AOGCC reserves
the right to withdraw the permit in the event it was erroneously issued.
Operations must be conducted in accordance with AS 31.05 and Title 20, Chapter 25 of the Alaska
Administrative Code unless the AOGCC specifically authorizes a variance. Failure to comply
with an applicable provision of AS 31.05, Title 20, Chapter 25 of the Alaska Administrative Code,
or an AOGCC order, or the terms and conditions of this permit may result in the revocation or
suspension of the permit.

Re: Furie Operating Alaska KLU A-6 Permit to Drill (10-401) Submittal
Dear Commissioners,
Please see attached application for a permit to drill for well KLU A-6. The well will be completed with a
3-1/2” gas lift tie-back completion. A separate sundry notice will be submitted for perforating
operations.
Please be advised that Furie plans to submit a Form 10-403 Application for Sundry Approvals, as we
have a two well program and plan to set surface casing on the KLU A-6 well and then move over to the
KLU A-5 well conductor and drill that well to total depth. This will allow Furie to set both string of
surface casing with the same diverter set up. The surface casing will be set above any known
productive zones and we plan to set a temporary packoff in the wellhead.
Drilling operations are expected to commence approximately April 15, 2025.
Regards,
Michael Duncan

10.Anticipated Drilling Hazards
Lost Circulation:
Drilling depleted reservoir may cause loss circulation events
x Maintain sufficient volumes while drilling.
x Maintain ability to take on fresh water during drilling phase
x If a LC event occurs pumping cement will be the last resort
x Ensure 500 lbs. of medium/coarse fibrous material, 500 lbs. SteelSeal (Angular, dual-
composition carbon-based material), & 500 lbs. different sizes of Calcium Carbonate are
available on location to mix LCM pills at moderate product concentrations.
x KLU A-1: No LC events occurred during the original drilling of KLU A1. Mud weights
ranged from 9.5 to 10+ ppg. At TD mud weight was reduced to 10. ppg.
x KLU A2/A2A: Lost circulation in production hole with a loss rate of 120 bph. Losses
cured with 30ppb LCM sweeps.
x KLU A-4: Lost circulation in Production hole with a loss rate of 105 bph. Losses cured
with 16ppb LCM sweeps. Losses occurred while running 9-5/8” casing and during the
second stage of the 9-5/8” casing cement job circulating from the stage tool at 5992’.
No losses were reported while drilling 12-1/4” hole or while circulating after casing
was on bottom.
o 6,282’ MD
Well Control:
x Prior to drilling into the Sterling or Beluga, hold a pre-reservoir meeting to outline
heightened awareness for kick detection and lost circulation.
Hydrates and Shallow gas
x No hydrates are expected in this area.
x No H2S are expected in this area.
x Ensure H2S monitoring equipment as specified in 20 AAC 25.065(1) will be functioning
on the rig as standard operating procedure.
x Ensure products for treating H2S contamination in the drilling mud system will be
maintained on the rig.
18
Anticollision:
See directional plan for anticollision analysis.
Coal Drilling:
The following lessons were learned from extensive experience drilling coal seams in Cook
Inlet. The need for good planning and drilling practices is also emphasized as a key
component for success.
x Identified by a drilling break (increase in ROP) by drilling 2-3’. Pick up with pumps on or
back ream. In offset well the coals are more frequent and thicker the deeper the well is
drilled. Coals seams are associated with loss circulation, sloughing, being water wet
which can cause packoff and sticking drill pipe. They can also exhibit breathing /
ballooning. Observation from previous KLU’s well show the coals have formation
pressures by 1-1.5 ppg higher than the sand formations.
x Keep the drill pipe in tension to prevent a whipping effect which can disturb coal
sections. Ensure the neutral point is in the heavy weight or BHA.
x Use asphalt-type additives to further stabilize coal seams.
x Increase fluid density as required to control running coals.
x Emphasize good hole cleaning through hydraulics, ROP, frequent sweeps and system
rheology.
x Minimize swab and surge pressures
x Minimize back reaming through coals when possible.
x Once in a coal seam, maintain the hydraulic pump pressure and GPM until the bit has
been reamed back up and is out of the coal seam, EVEN IF MUD LOSSES ARE
EXPERIENCED. Then observe the well and the hydraulics “may” need to be reduced to
keep from losing circulation and causing the coals to water wet, which may create
sloughing problem in the coals, utilizing the water loss additives and asphaltenes to
combat the water wetting aspects. Lost circulation materials (a combination of various
sizes of calcium carbonates) should be utilized initially.
Tight Hole/ Packoffs:
If the hole becomes tight or pack offs, move the drill string in the opposite direction.
Depleted Zones:
Be aware of previously produced zones, that may a subnormal pore pressure, which will
reduce the fracture gradient. Review with the rig crews and be prepared for losses.

11.LOT/FIT Procedure
Procedure for LOT/FIT:
1. Drill 20' of new formation below the casing shoe (this does not include rat hole below
the shoe).
2. Circulate the hole to establish a uniform mud density throughout the system. P/U into
the shoe.
3. Close the blowout preventer (ram or annular).
4. Pump down the drill stem at 1/4 to 1/2 bpm.
5. On a graph plot the fluid pumped (volume or strokes) vs. drill pipe pressure until
appropriate surface pressure is achieved for FIT at shoe. Add casing pressure test data
to graph if recent and available.
6. Shut down at required surface pressure. Hold for a minimum 10 minutes or until the
pressure stabilizes. Record time vs. pressure in I-minute intervals.
7. Bleed the pressure off and record the fluid volume recovered.
Where required, the LOT is performed in the same fashion as the formation integrity test.
Instead of stopping at a pre-determined point, surface pressure is increased until the formation
begins to take fluid; at this point the pressure will continue to rise, but at a slower rate. The
system is shut in and pressure monitored as with an FIT.

Subject:Re: KLU A-6 Close approach
Bryan -
For the KLU A-6. Several wells "failed" the close approach metrics with a CF of less than one. Almost all
of those wells (The KLU A-2 NE, KLU A-2 North, Well SE1, Well SSE1) have yet to be drilled. We will be
careful with these paths to keep room for future wells but of course there is no risk of collision.
The one that exists is the KLU A-4 PB1. This is an older wellbore that was plugged back. It does not have
steel in the old wellbore, only cement. In this case we barely overlap with the ellipse of uncertainty (-.46'
at a depth of 525').
We still intend to take the same prudent mitigation measures to avoid collision and to avoid creating
difficulty for future wells. We will run a gyro every 30' beginning in the structural casing/conductor. We
intend to use this gyro to get a tool face orientation before drilling new rock. We then plan to orient and
begin with a slide to ensure the proper direction is established right away.
Below is a clip of the APD (Pages 63 and 64) that shows the applicable data.
Thanks,
Michael Duncan

Could you answer the same question but for KLU A-6? Which of the close approach failures represent
real wells and what mitigations do you plan to take to prevent a collision with an existing wellbore?

Subject: Re: KLU A-5 Close approach
Bryan -
There are two examples, with existing wells, where we lose the Clearance Factor (CF) of 1, meaning that
the ellipse of uncertainty overlaps with another well trajectory.
In the case of the KLU A-2 North, we just barely "touch" on the ellipse of uncertainty. You see a -.04' in
ellipse separation and a .993 CF.
In the case of the KLU A-4, we have more of an overlap (-2.37') at a depth of 420'.
To avoid collision in each we will be utilizing a gyro survey, run every 30' until we are clear (CF above 1).
In the case of the KLU A-4 in particular, we are planning to take additional measures to avoid. We will use
the gyro in the conductor to verify direction and the tool face. Once we have the tool face near the end of
the conductor, we will scribe the pipe to orient for a slide to the west. Heading sue west will take us away
from the KLU A4. We have roughly 100' to establish this direction and verify movement away from the
well.
Thanks,
Michael

Can you address each of these failed close approaches? I believe most of them are planned wells and don’t actually

We will be utilizing the Halliburtons Risk assessment for close approach. Running Gyro in the surface section from
conductor to ~1500 taking Gyro surveys every 30' while under a 1 clearance factor and gyro tool-faces for steering
separation.
Once we are over 1 CF, we will utilize Halliburton's MWD survey tool for qualified survey .

Subject:Conductor install
Bryan -
Thank you for the conversation. Here is a quick review of the conductor install and the alignment.
1. The platform is plumb, this is verified and fixed at time of install with sub see jacks and pile
latched. Each side that site on a pile is adjusted before permanent pile attachment.
2. Prior to conductor install, a penetration is cut at each deck level on the platform and a "guide" is
installed. Here is a drawing of the guide
It is a 24" piece of pipe that is installed on i-beams in between deck ibeams. Location is verfied to
ensure each deck penetration and guide is centered vertically (plumb) with the other
penetrations.
3. Before installing a conductor, we verify the placement with a "drift". Here is a drawing of the drift.
CAUTION: This email originated from outside the State of Alaska mail system. Do not click links or open
attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe.
2
It is made to 22" diameter and lowered through each slot with 2 3/8" tubing. When lowered we "tag"
(push by hand to bump) piping and anodes on the way down.
Here is a drawing of subsea components, and I have circled places where we tag items with the drift to
verify subsea locations.
After confirming all of this is in place, and the platform slots are where they should be, the conductors
are lowered in place. Plumb is verified (by level, and by measurement from known locations at deck
penetrations. Once all is verfifed we tag the mud and hammer in place.
We watch the guides as we hammer in the conductors. I was personally impressed at how centered the
conductors stayed.
The conductors are very heavy wall (.812 wall thickness) for driving purposes. The hammer is a 50,000 lbs
and hits with 104,000 ft-lbs of energy. We work with the pile driving company to verify conductor
strength.
3
Hopefully this review provides the appropriate concepts towards verification that the conductors are
installed parallel to each other, and that the material strength is there for all well work. In the past I have
installed conductors to a depth of 80' while these are driven well past 100'.
In addition to the strength of the conductor, we intend to hold the surface casing in place until cement is
placed and set up. This will ensure that the weight of the surface pipe is not fully stacked out on the
conductor. We would do this by lowering a small amount of weight on the surface casing landing ring to
verify position, but then use the landing joint on slips to hold the majority of the weight.
Please let me know if there are further concerns.
Thank you,
Michael Duncan
