Proposed plan for J-21A Producer: See J-21 Sundry request for complete pre-rig details. Prior to drilling activities, screening will be conducted to drift for whipstock and MIT. E-line or coil will mill the XN-nipple. E-line will set a 4-1/2"x7" whipstock. Coil will mill window pre-rig +10' of formation. If unable to set the whipstock or mill the window pre-rig, the rig will perform that work. A coil tubing drilling sidetrack will be drilled with the Nabors CDR2 or CDR3 rig. The rig will move in and test BOPE. If unable to pre-rig, the rig will set the 4-1/2"x7" whipstock, mill the XN nipple and mill a single string 3.80" window + 10' of formation. The well will kick off drilling in the Schublik and lands in Ivishak Zone 3. The lateral will continue in Zone 3 and 4 to TD. The proposed sidetrack will be completed with a 3-1/2"x3-1/4"x2-7/8” 13Cr solid liner, cemented in place and selectively perforated post rig (will be perforated with rig if unable to post rig). This completion will completely isolate and abandon the parent Prudhoe Pool perfs. The following describes the work planned. A wellbore schematic of the current well and proposed sidetrack is attached for reference. Pre-Rig Work: Reference J-21 Sundry submitted in concert with this request for full details. 1. Slickline : Dummy WS drift 2. E-Line : Set 4-1/2" x 7" Whipstock at 9175’ MD oriented 0 degrees ROHS 3. Fullbore : MIT-IA and/or MIT-T to 2,500 psi (min) 4. Coil : Mill XN nipple (at 8,825' MD) and 3.80" Single String 7" Window (if window not possible, mill with rig). 5. Valve Shop : Pre-CTD Tree Work 6. Operations : Remove wellhouse and level pad. Rig Work: (Estimated to start in November 2025) 1. MIRU and test BOPE 250 psi low and 3,500 psi high (MASP 2,442 psi). Give AOGCC 24hr notice prior to BOPE test. 2. Set whipstock, mill XN nipple, and mill 3.80” Single String 7" Window (if not already done pre-rig) 3. Drill build section: 4.25" OH, ~415' (22 deg DLS planned). 4. Drill production lateral: 4.25" OH, ~1617' (12 deg DLS planned). Swap to KWF for liner. 5. Run 3-1/2” x 3-1/4” x 2-7/8” 13Cr solid liner 6. Pump primary cement job*: 37 bbls, 15.3 ppg Class G, 1.24 (ft3/sk), TOC at TOL. Set LTP*. If high losses are encountered during cement job and it is deemed necessary, a cement down squeeze from TOL to loss zone will be performed with the rig or service coil (if performed by service coil see future sundry). 7. Only if not able to do with service coil extended perf post rig – Perforate Liner with 1-1/4" CS Hydril 8. Freeze protect well to a min 2,200' TVD. 9. Close in tree, RDMO. Post Rig Work: 1. Valve Shop : Valve & tree work 2. Slickline : Set LTP* (if necessary). Set live GLVs. 3. Service Coil : Post rig RPM, CBL and perforate (~30’) - see extended perf procedure attached. 4. Testing : Portable test separator flowback. Managed Pressure Drilling: Managed pressure drilling techniques will be employed on this well. The intent is to provide constant bottom hole pressure by using minimum 8.4 ppg drilling fluid in combination with annular friction losses and applied surface pressure. Constant BHP will be utilized to reduce pressure fluctuations to help with hole stability. Applying annular friction and choke pressure also allow use of lighter drilling fluid and minimizes fluid losses and/or fracturing at the end of the long well bores. A MPD choke for regulating surface pressure and is independent of the WC choke. Deployment of the BHA under trapped wellhead pressure may be necessary. Pressure deployment of the BHA will be accomplished utilizing BHA pipe/slip rams (see attached BOP configurations). The annular preventer will act as a secondary containment during deployment and not as a stripper. Operating parameters and fluid densities will be adjusted based on real-time bottom hole pressure measurements while drilling and shale behavior. The following scenario is expected: MPD Pressure at the Planned Window (9175' MD -8,728' TVD) Pumps On Pumps O A Target BHP at Window (ppg)4,448 psi 4,448 psi 9.8 B -550 psi 0 psi 0.09 C 3,903 psi 3,903 psi 8.6 B+C Mud + ECD Combined 4,454 psi 3,903 psi (no choke pressure) A-(B+C)Choke Pressure Required to Maintain - psi 545 psi Target BHP at window and deeper Operation Details: Reservoir Pressure: The estimated reservoir pressure is expected to be 3,322 psi at 8,800 TVD. (7.3 ppg equivalent). Maximum expected surface pressure with gas (0.10 psi/ft) to surface is 2,442 psi (from estimated reservoir pressure). Mud Program: Drilling: Minimum MW of 8.4 ppg KCL with viscosifier for drilling. Managed pressure used to maintain constant BHP. Disposal: All Class l & II non-hazardous and RCRA-exempt drilling and completion fluids will go to GNI at DS 4. Fluids >1% hydrocarbons or flammables must go to GNI. Fluids >15% solids by volume must go to GNI. Fluids with solids that will not pass through 1/4” screen must go to GNI. Fluids with PH >11 must go to GNI. Hole Size: 3.8” to 4.25” hole for the entirety of the production hole section. Liner Program: 3-1/2", 9.3#, 13Cr-80/Solid: 8,685' MD – 8,715' MD (30' liner) 3-1/4", 6.6#, 13Cr-80/Solid: 8,715' MD – 9,800' MD (1,085' liner) 2-7/8", 6.5#, 13Cr-80/Solid: 9,800' MD – 11,207' MD (1,407' liner) The primary barrier for this operation: Kill Weight Fluid to provide overbalance as necessary. A X-over shall be made up to a safety joint including a TIW valve for all tubulars ran in hole. Jointed Pipe Work String Program: 1-1/4" CS Hydril, 3.02#, P-110: up to 4,000' MD Used for contingency CTD liner cleanout/logging runs, deployment of perforation guns (if performed by rig), inner string 2-3/8” liner cement jobs and contingency inner string 2-7/8” liner cement jobs. Well Control: BOP diagram is attached. MPD and pressure deployment is planned. Pipe rams, blind rams and the CT pack off will be pressure tested to 250 psi and to 3,500 psi. The annular preventer will be tested to 250 psi and 2,500 psi. 1.5 wellbore volumes of KWF will be on location at all times during drilling operations. A X-over shall be available to be made up to a safety joint, with the same OD as coiled tubing, including a TIW valve for all tubulars ran in hole. The safety joint will be utilized while running solid/slotted liner, perforation guns and CS Hydril jointed pipe. The desire is to keep the same standing orders for the entire liner run and not change shut in techniques from well to well (run safety joint with pre-installed TIW valve). When closing on a Click or tap here to enter text. safety joint, 2 sets of pipe/slip rams will be available, above and below the flow cross providing better well control option. CO823 – Hilcorp CTD Qualification Blind-Shear Test: CDR2 test on 09/04/2025 (see Hilcorp Alaska CTD CO823 Qualification report previously sent to AOGCC for more information). CO823 – Safety Joint Drills: Provide AOGCC opportunity to witness once per well that a CTD liner is ran. Directional: Directional plan attached. Maximum planned hole angle is 105°. Inclination at kick off point is 22°. Magnetic and inclination surveys will be taken every 30 ft. No gyro will be run.

Perforating: 30' perforated post rig – See attached extended perforating procedure. 2" Perf Guns at 6 spf If post rig extended perforating with service coil is not an option, the well will be perforated with the rig or post rig under this PTD. The well will be perforated between the CTD whipstock and TD of the newly drilled CTD well, completely in the Prudhoe Pool. Formations: Top of Prudhoe Pool is 9099’ MD in the parent Anti-Collision Failures: All Wells Pass AC scan Hazards: DS/Pad is an H2S pad. The last H2S reading on J-21: 30 ppm on 4/16/2023. Max H2S recorded on DS/Pad: 36 ppm.. 0 fault crossings expected. Medium lost circulation risk. William Long CC: Well File Drilling Engineer Joseph Lastufka (907-263-4372) Pre-Rig – Service Coil – Window Milling The approved sundry and permit to drill will be posted in the Operations Cabin of the unit during the entire window milling operation. Notes for window milling: Window milling with service CTU operations will fully comply with 20 AAC 25.286(d)(3), including the use of pressure control equipment, all BHAs fully lubricated and at no point will any BHA be open-hole deployed. Window Milling Procedure: 1. Kill well with 1% KCL if necessary. Well may already be killed from previous operations. 2. MU and RIH with window milling assembly – Window mill followed by string reamer. NOTE: Confirm milling BHA configuration prior to job execution due to variations in different service provider’s window milling BHAs. 3. RIH & TAG whipstock pinch point, calculate distance till string reamer is out of the window, paint coil flag and note in WSR. 4. Mill window per vendor procedure. – Make note of any WHP changes while milling window in the WSR. 5. Make multiple reciprocating passes through the kickoff point to dress liner exit and eliminate all burs. Perform gel sweeps as necessary to keep window clean. Maximum approved distance to reciprocate beyond the window is 15 ft to ensure confidence the window is prepared for the sidetrack.DO NOT RECIPROCATE DEEPER than 15 ft. 6. Confirm exited liner & string reamer dressed entire window with coil flag and note bottom of window and total milled depth in WSR. 7. FP well to 2,500’ TVD with 60/40 MeOH while POOH. 8. Once on surface inspect BHA, measure OD of mill and string reamer & document in WSR. 9. RDMO 10. Communicate to Operations to tag wing valve “Do Not POP”. Pre-Rig – Service Coil – Window Milling – BOP Diagram Post-Rig Service Coil Perforating Procedure: Coiled Tubing Notes: Due to the necessary open hole deployment of Extended Perforating jobs, 24-hour crew and WSS coverage is required. Note: The well will be killed and monitored before making up the initial perfs guns. This will provide guidance as to whether the well will be killed by bullheading or circulating bottoms up throughout the job. If pressure is seen immediately after perforating, it will either be killed by bullheading while POOH or circulating bottoms up through the same port that opened to shear the firing head. Coil Tubing 1. MIRU Coiled Tubing Unit and spot ancillary equipment. 2. MU nozzle drift BHA (include SCMT and/or RPM log as needed). 3. RIH to PBTD. a. Displace well with weighted brine while RIH (minimum 8.4 ppg to be overbalanced). 4. POOH (and RPM log if needed) and lay down BHA. 5. After MU MHA and pull testing the CTC, tag-up on the CT stripper to ensure BHA cannot pull through the brass upon POOH with guns. 6. There will be no perforations to bullhead kill the well. Well will already be loaded w/ weighted brine or KCl per previous steps. Re-load well at WSS discretion. 7. At surface, prepare for deployment of TCP guns. 8.Confirm well is dead. Bleed any pressure off to return tank. Kill well w/ KWF, weighted brine as needed (minimum 8.4 ppg). Maintain continuous hole fill taking returns to tank until lubricator connection is reestablished. Fluids man-watch must be performed while deploying perf guns to ensure the well remains killed and there is no excess flow. 9.Pickup safety joint and TIW valve and space out before MU guns.Review well control steps with crew prior to breaking lubricator connection and commencing makeup of TCP gun string. Once the safety joint and TIW valve have been spaced out, keep the safety joint/TIW valve readily accessible near the working platform for quick deployment if necessary. 10. Break lubricator connection at QTS and begin makeup of TCP guns and blanks per schedule below.Max BHA length per PTD is 500ft. Fluids man-watch must be performed while deploying perf guns to ensure the well remains killed and there is no excess flow. a.
