Re: Prudhoe Bay Surface Casing by Conductor Annulus Top-offs of Cement, Corrosion Inhibitor
through 02/09/2024.
Dear Mr. Rixse,
Enclosed please find a copy of a spreadsheet with a list of Prudhoe Bay wells that were topped-off
with cement, corrosion inhibitor in the surface casing by conductor annulus through 02/09/2024.
Cement top-offs are executed as needed to mitigate the void space left at surface by minor cement
fallback during the primary surface casing by conductor cement job. The remaining void space
between the top of the cement and the top of the conductor is filled with a heavier than water
corrosion inhibitor to reduce the risk of external surface casing corrosion. The attached
spreadsheets include the well names, API and PTD numbers, treatment dates and volumes.
As per previous agreement with the AOGCC, this letter and spreadsheet serve as notification that
the treatments took place and meet the requirements of form 10-404 Report of Sundry Operations.
If you have any additional questions, please contact me at 564-4891 or

Subject: WAG Injectors S-31 (PTD # 1982200) and S-134 (PTD # 2090830)
SVS performance testing non-compliance incident investigation findings and
corrective actions.
Dear Mr. Regg,
On 8/15/2020 WAG Injectors S-31 (PTD # 1982200) and S-134 (PTD # 2090830) were placed
on MI injection. On 9/1/2020, it was found that the required SVS performance testing was not
completed per AOGCC requirements. After discovering this non-compliance, performance tests
were immediately scheduled and completed successfully on 9/1/2020 along with initiating an
investigation into why these tests were originally missed.
There were two contributing factors for missing these required SVS performance tests:
1) During the week of 8/12 – 8/19/2020 there was a step-up Field Ops Lead covering
the role.
2) The SVS tool that tracks testing requirements coming due did not flag these wells for
requiring a test.
Findings concerning item #1:
The GC2 Field Ops lead is responsible for scheduling required SVS testing in the GC2 area.
During this week the normal Ops Lead was on vacation and another Wellpad operator was
“stepped up” to cover these responsibilities. The guidance the individual was provided was to
monitor the SVS tool to schedule required testing and work with the GC1 Field OPS lead for
support if there are any questions. Since the tests were never flagged in the SVS Tool as
required they were overlooked. Additionally the wellpads normally operated by the step-up
Wellpad operator do not have any WAG wells so they were not immediately familiar with this
requirement. Had another operator more experienced with WAG wells or the permanent Field
Lead been on shift their experience would have likely resulted in scheduling the tests rather
than relying solely on the SVS tool.
Corrective action for item #1:
Prior to Field Ops Lead taking vacation, review planned field activity with the step-up
lead operator and provide a list of activity in written handover that may trigger SVS
performance testing.
Findings concerning item #2:
In the week of 8/10/2020 a manual date change was made to the database which supplies
injector service type (MI vs. produced water) information to the SVS tool and daily exception
reports. This change caused the database tracking well service type to stop updating. When S-
31 and S-134 were swapped to MI service on 8/15/2020 the database continued to show that
the wells were on water injection and continued to do so until 8/31/2020. On 8/31/2020 the
database with the injector service type information was refreshed with updated data causing S-
31 and S-134 to show as overdue for performance testing in the SVS tool and the daily
exception reports on the morning of 9/1/2020.
Corrective action for item #2:
The logic for the database supplying injector service type information to the SVS tool
and daily exception reports has been corrected such that a manual date change to the
database will not cause the data to stagnate. This has been implemented and
successfully tested.
If you have any questions, please call me at 907-564-5231

Subject: Update: WAG Injectors S-31 and S-134 lapsed on SVS Performance Test
M r. Regg,
The investigation into the S-31 (PTE) # 1982200) and S-134 (PTE) # 2090830) SVS performance testing noncompliance
incident is still ongoing, but I wanted to give you a status update. We have confirmed that the service type for these
wells was correctly changed by the board operator at the time of the transition from water to MI. We have not yet
discovered why the daily exception reports and SVS tool did not register this change and therefore alert personnel to the
testing requirement, but our IT group is continuing to investigate. As a temporary measure to ensure no other SVS
noncompliance incidents occur manual SVS reports are being run daily and are being reviewed by the lead operators and
well integrity. Let me know if you have any questions.
