The well was finally plugged and abandoned in 1985, and a subsurface steel marker plate was installed approximately 3 ft below the gravel pad surface in lieu of an abandonment marker post. BPXA is remediating the North Prudhoe Bay State No. 1 gravel pad, and will recover as much of the gravel as possible for re-use. This required that the subsurface marker plate be lowered to below the original tundra surface level, as per 20 AAC 25.170. The following operations summary describes how and when this work was accomplished. Attachment I shows the final condition of the near-surface part of the wellbore after the work was completed. Operations Summary: February 14, 2008: Relocated well. Resurveyed well location, and made exploratory excavation to expose subsurface marker plate. Excavator accidentally detached marker plate while digging out well. All annuli and 9 5/8" casing appeared to be cemented to surface immediately under marker plate. Made plans to tap all casing strings at cut-off point before making final cuts as precaution. Advised AOGCC of accidental detachment of marker plate. February 15-19, 2008: Lined up equipment and services required to tap wellbore, sever casing strings, and remedially cement, as required. February 20, 2008: Rigged up cold tap equipment. Drilled 3/a" hole through 30", 20" and 13 3/8" casing. Encountered no pressure in 20" x 30" and 9 5/8" x 13 3/8" annuli, both of which were suspected of being uncemented. Had a few drips of diesel drainage from hole, Installed threaded plug in 3/a" hole in 30" conductor at end of shift. February 21, 2008: Rigged up Wachs Goliath saw for casing cuts, and crane to apply tension and recover cut-off section. Spill containment in place. Cut 35" off top of well in one pass. Top of well now at 4' 3" below original tundra grade. Time required to complete cut was slightly over 2 hrs. Unable to distinguish between cement and frozen mud in annuli. Found diesel in 41h" cavity to unknown depth. Applied heat to well, and secured for night. • February 22, 2008: Inspected well after being under heat tent all night. 20" x 30" and 13 3/8" x 20" annuli are cemented. 9 5/8" x 13 3/8" annulus contained frozen water-based drilling mud, which was starting to thaw. Unable to jet out mud due to high winds. Shut down for the day due to weather. February 23, 2008: WOW. Maintained heat on well with heat tent. Inspected well and containment periodically during the day, but too much wind to attempt to jet out mud. February 24, 2008: Rigged up to jet out 41h" tubing, 4'h" x 9 5/8" and 9 5/8" x 13 3/8" annuli with 110° water. Top of 41h" tubing was approximately 5 ft below top of 9 5/8" casing. Able to clean out tubing and 41h" x 9 5/8" annulus to 57 ft. Hard bottom at 57 ft. Could only jet out to 37 ft in 9 5/8" x 13 3/8" annulus, as encountered hard bottom at 37 ft. Took waste to vac truck. Contacted AOGCC inspector to inspect condition of well before cementing. Inspector waived inspection, and requested to be notified when cementing was complete, and before subsurface marker plate installed. February 25, 2008: Rigged up to remedially cement. ~an 1" steel tubing into 9 5/8" x 13 3/8" g annulus. Got cement returns at surface after 1.5 bbls pumped. Vac'ed returns off top until had good cement at surface. Pumped total of 4 bbls 15.7-16.0 ppg Arctic Set cement into annulus. Ran 1" steel tubing into 41h" tubing, and cemente z to mg an z x annulus. Had returns both up annulus and 41h" from 1" line in 41h" tubing. Cement returns at surface after 3 bbls. Vac'ed off returns until had uncontaminated returns at surface. Pumped total of 6 bbls 15.7-16.0 ppg Arctic Set cement into 41/z" tubing and 41/z" x 9 5/8" annulus com ine~ Flushed lines to contaminate truck, washed up. WOC with heat tent on well. February 26, 2008: AOGCC inspector Lou Grinaldi inspected and approved cement jobs, and granted permission to weld on subsurface marker plate. Installed marker plate with the following bead welded on top of plate: BP Exploration Alaska, Inc.

(BPXA) Abandonment Marker Plate Lowering Program North Prudhoe Bay State No. 1 PTD: 169-113 API No. 50-029-20049-00 Background Information and Present Well Condition: North Prudhoe Bay State No. 1 is located within the Prudhoe Bay Unit, and on the southwest shoreline of Prudhoe Bay, east of the West Dock access road. There is no road to the well site, and a short ice road spur will be constructed from the West Dock road to support the proposed work. The well was drilled, logged, tested, and suspended in 1970 by ARCO Alaska, Inc. The well was finally plugged and abandoned in 1985, and a subsurface steel marker plate was installed approximately 3 ft below the gravel pad surface in lieu of an abandonment marker post. As a result, there is no surface indication of the well location on the pad, and the presence (or absence) of the remains of a well cellar cannot be confirmed without excavation. The abandonment of this well has been approved by the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC), although it is to a lesser standard then what is required by current regulations. From a practical standpoint there is no reason to question the operational effectiveness of the abandonment, however BPXA plans to remediate the site and recover much of the gravel for re-use, and this requires that the subsurface marker plate be lowered to below the original tundra surface as per 20 AAC 25.170. Before this work is done, the well will be cold tapped to verify that it is safe to proceed. Once the casing cuts are made, any open annuli will be filled with cement placed from the surface before the new marker plate is installed at the lower elevation. S~~ Q r~,,~ \ ~--rcSG h Attachment Ishows the present condition of this well. ~~~ Projects Objectives: ~~~~~~ BPXA plans to remediate the North Prudhoe Bay State No. 1 pad and reserve pit. To the degree possible, the gravel will be salvaged for re-use. Lowering of the subsurface abandonment marker plate to approximately 4 ft below the original tundra surface is necessary to these objectives. If the remains of the well cellar are discovered during the excavation work, they will be removed as part of the project. The work is scheduled for the first quarter of 2008. • • Abandonment Marker Plate Lowering Operations Program: The well work described herein will require approximately one week to complete, not including the time required to construct the ice road.

The well remained suspended until 1985 when it was plugged and abandoned in accordance with AOGCC regulations in effect at the time, and which are to a lesser standard that those under which P&A's must be completed today. The abandonment was completed with a subsurface steel marker plate which was installed approximately 3 ft below the gravel pad surface. From an operational effectiveness standpoint, there is no reason to question the adequacy of the abandonment, particularly since there is unperforated 9 5/8" production casing run to TD which is probably cemented through all hydrocarbon bearing zones, although TOC was not accurately confirmed at the time the well was drilled. There is 4 %2" tubing in the well, which is run to 8936 ft. This tubing is plugged with cement from 260 -500 ft, and the string is cut at 60 ft and capped with a surface plug in the 9 5/8" casing. As a precautionary measure, before cutting the casing strings, they will be tapped at the cutoff point to verify that it is safe to proceed with the remainder of the program. Well records suggest that both the 9 5/8" x 13 3/8" and 20" x 30" annuli could be uncemented below shallow surface plugs, and possibly filled with frozen drilling mud. If this proves to be the case, once the casing cuts are made, the operator proposes to thaw these annuli with steam to the maximum depth that can reasonably be achieved using 1" steel tubing. The thawed mud would then be replaced with arctic set cement. Anew steel subsurface maker plate installed at approximately 4 ft below the original tundra surface would complete the proposed work. Site Preparation 1. Excavate around well to 6 ft below the top of the original tundra surface. Make sure that the excavation is sufficiently large to safely work around the conductor casing, and to ingress and egress the excavation without undo hazard. Remember: The excavation is a confined space. Conduct operations accordingly. 2. If the remains of the well cellar are encountered during the excavation work, remove it for disposal. Segregate any contaminated gravel as directed by the BPXA on-site remediation supervisor. Casing Taps • 1. Before making casing cuts, tap all casing strings at the cutoff point to determine annular contents, and to make sure that there are no fluids that could be released by the casing cuts. Casing Cuts 1. Attach lifting sling to casing section to be removed. Use excavator bucket to apply tension to casing section while cut is being made. 2. Rig up mega Wachs saw on 30" conductor at a point 3-4 ft below the original tundra surface. Cut all casing string in one pass. Remove cut-off sections. Remedial Cement: Inspect casing cut. The 9 5/8" x 13 3/8" and 20" x 30" annuli maybe uncemented, and filled with frozen drilling mud. If this proves to be the case, rig up steam unit and prepare to thaw mud in annuli to the maximum depth that can reasonably be achieved using 1" steel tubing advanced down the annuli. 2. Rig up cementing unit. Perform top job in thawed annuli using 1" steel tubing to convey arctic set slurry. Fill annuli to surface. Note: Please give the AOGCC inspector 24 hours notice (659-2714) to witness procedure. Install New Marker Plate 1. After AOGCC approves condition of surface cement plugs install new subsurface steel marker plate, by welding to the outer most casing string (30" conductor), as per 20 AAC 25.120 (b), (1), (2) and (4). Note: Marker plate must have the following information bead-welded on the surface: BP Exploration (Alaska), Inc PTD No. 169-113 North Prudhoe Bay State No. 1 API No: 50-029-20049-00 • 2. Inform pad remediation supervisor that excavation is ready for back- filling, as directed. 3. File Report of Sundry Well Operations (Form 10-404) within 30 days of completion of field operations. • Maunder, Thomas E (DOA) From: Maunder, Thomas E (DOA) Sent: Friday, February 15, 2008 3:48 PM To: 'Bob Gardner' Subject: RE: Scan from a Xerox WorkCentre Pro, North Prudhoe Bay Stale No. 1 (169-113) Bob, Thanks for providing the documentation of our call earlier today.

This well was plugged and abandoned in 1985 to AOGCC standards in effect at the time, and the abandonment was completed with the installation of a subsurface marker plate installed approximately 3 ft below the gravel pad surface. As a result, there was no surface expression of this well on the pad. BPXA is preparing to remedaate the pad, and recover much of the gravel for re-use. This activity requires that the subsurface marker plate be lowered to approximately 3-4 ft below the original tundra surface. In planning for this activity, we reviewed the AOGCC well file, and from the information contained therein we concluded that we might encounter un-cemented 9 5/$" X 13 3/8" and 20" X 30" annuli, once the original marker plate was removed. We then prepared a procedure for lowering the marker plate that included tapping tY~e plate before removal to verify that it would be safe to proceed, and remedially cementing (top jobs) any open annuli before we made the casing cuts at the below tundra grade elevation. This procedure was in final preparation for submittal to your office, along with the attached Sundry Notice, when a situation on-site developed that required a change in direction. In preparation for the up-coming well work, and since there was no surface expression of this well, field crews re-located it, and excavated around it to give access to the well. Unfortunately the excavator operator accidentally detached the marker plate in the process. To our relief, this revealed cement at the surface in all annuli, and an intact cement surface plug in the 9 5I8° casing. This also rendered our original procedure moot, as there are no annuli to cement, at least that can be observed from the surface. In light of the current situation, we respectfully request your verbal approval of the following path forward, pending a re-write of the formal procedures: 1. Extend the excavation to below the level where the casing cuts are to be made in preparation for the casing cuts and installation of the new marker plate. 2. Tap all casing string at the cutoff point to confirm that there is cement in the annuli, or in the absence of cement, that there are no fluids that could be released by the casing cuts. 3. Cut all casing strings at the new marker plate elevation. 4. Remedially cement (top jobs) any open annuli that are exposed, as originally intended, 1 • before installing the new subsurface marker plate. We regret that the excavator accidentally got this job started before it was intended, and before we had made our formal submittal to the AOGCC. Based on the current situation, we will revise our formal procedures to reflect the above steps, and submit them no later than Monday, February 18th. In the meantime, we would like to move ahead with the work, now that we inadvertently have it started. Thank you for your consideration of this request. Sincerely, R. C.

Tuesday and Wednesday, April 23 and 24, 1985: As the attached Schematic shows' "th~"'well had" 4~" ~ubing inside the 9 5/8" casing. The tubing was open ended and hung off at 8,986' The 9 5/8" casing was set at 9,596' with a P.B.T.D. of 9,37~'. It was decided to go in the 4%" tubing with a wire line and shoot the tubing off at 500'+-. After the tubing was shot off a 19 bbl. slurry of Arctic Set I cement was pumped. After waiting on the cement to set for 4~ hours an attempt was made to tag the cement with a wire line. The wire line was run into a T.D. of 500' but no cement was encountered. George Bean, ARCO representative, ordered more cement and another plug was pumped. After waiting on the Cement to set for five hOurs the cement was tagged with wire line at 260'. The wire line was then run into the tubing to 60'+- and the tubing was shot, but as we discovered after pumping a 9 bbl. slurry of cement down the 4%" tubing and back to surface in the 9 5/8" casing, the tubing was not Shot completely off. An attempt was made to pull the tubing with a 20. ton crane.: Mr. Bean and I discussed the problem and it was decided to just leave the tubing cemented in place. On 'Thursday, April 25, 1985 Joe Mcinnes called and spoke to Doug A~nos. He informed Doug that the wellhead had been cut off and the marker plate had been welded on the casing. Joe said he had taken pictures of the Plate and would send them to the AOGCC office. In s~ary, I witnessed the P&A of the wellbore on ARCO's North Prudhoe Bay State #1.

Sm i th Petroleum Engineer DATE SUBJECT: November 30, 1973 Inspection of Various LocationsL~P' ~) on the North Slope Tu.esday~ September 18~ 1973- I departed Anchorage by commercial aircarrier, arriving in Fairbanks at 7:50 a.m. Due to continued bad, foggy weather on the North Slope the flight was unable to continue. Following a six hour delay, the airline returned me to Anchorage and the flight was rescheduled the next day. Wednesday., ..September 19~ !973 - I departed Anchorage on the rescheduled flight but the plane was unable to land at Fairbanks due to fog and rain. The flight returned to Anchorage for fuel and then proceeded back to Fairbanks and on to the North Slope arriving at Deadhorse in the early afternoon. I immediately made contact with the' Gay Airways Inc. helicopter pi lot and we decided the wea- ther was sufficiently good and the daylight adequate for photos. We took off at 2:20 p.m. and proceeded to the Mobil West Staines location, approximately 50 mi les east of Deadhorse. On the way we flew directly over two other loca- ti ons. Mobi l's Mikkelsen Bay State #13-9-19.~...S.e..c.;~ 13, _T9N, ..R.19E.,.. U.M. This well is approximately 30 mi les east of Deadhorse. Mobil has not completed the abandonment clean-up work at this well site where the well (item I) was plugged and "Abandoned" September 30, 1970. Photo #! (see Appendix A for all photos) shows a large stack of mud supplies (item 2) beyond the open pit (item 3). Other equipment (item 4) is stacked around the perimeter of the pad. This drill site is viewed from the west toward the east. The gravel airstrip (item 5) 'and connecting road is in the background. Exxon's East Mikkelsen Bay State #1, Sec. 7, T9N, R21E, UBM; As we passed on the south side of the this drill site, I took Photo #2. This photo shows the rig, still standing over the well with alt equipment and the camp still intact at this location. I was inform'ed by the chopper pilot that this camp had recently been broken into by bears and as we swept past the location I could see the open doorway at the east end of the campsite. (I passed this information to the rig owners who went in two weeks later and re- boarded-up the camp) This well was plugged back to 3000' and "Suspended" for observation of permafrost on June 9, 1971. Mobi l's West Staines State #18-9-23, Sec. 18, T9N, R23E, U.M. As we approached this location directly from the west I took the first (Photo #3) of the nine attached photos (nos. 3-11) of this location. This aerial shot of the West Staines State location, shows the well pad (item !), pits (item 2), supplies (item 3) stacked on the pad and a building (item 4). We circled the Homer L. Burrel I -2- November 30, 1973 location, landed and I took Photo #4 looking to the south showing the wellhead marker (item I) and pi les of supplies (item 3) on the south perimeter of the pad. .P,hoto #5, taken' from the west side of the wel Ihead, looking across to the east, shows the capped welihead with the attached P&A marker (item I) the rat hole (item 5) and the mouse hole (item 6) casements were still in place along with the cellar (item 7) and the pilings (item 8) for the rig. In the background can be seen neat stacks of supplies (item 3), equipment (item 9), a building (item 4), and a fuel revetment (item !0), with a pillow tank rolled up on the ground. I walked to the southwest corner of the pad and took Photo #6, showing a stack of tubing and casing (item I) located on.the west edge of the pad , (item 12) with its uneven gravel and, in the foreground, a stack of fuel drums · (item 13), some empty and some full of fuel. Also a box containing a pillow tank (item 14) and a large stack of wood piling, (item 15) is~in view. Photo #7 Was also taken from the stack of tubing and casing (item !i)~ looking across to the east. It shows a stack of miscellaneous pipe and metal supplies (item 16) and across the pit area (item 2) a large stack of mud supplies (item 17) with the building (item 4) to the left side. Closer examination of the stacked mud supplies showed them to be in very poor condition with many of the sacks burst' or the container had-leaked sufficiently to al Iow water and moisture to get to the mud which had burst the sacks due to swelling. Photo #8, a view from the south to the northeast, sh~#s a large stack of pi ling and boards (item 15), the wellhead and marker (item !) in the background with other stacks of supplies (item 3) and the building (item 4) beyond that. The helicopter can also be seen near the lake on the north edge of the pad. Photo #9_, a photo looking to the northeast along the north edge of the pad, shows the fuel revetment (item !0) with the gravel berm (item 18) partly covered by a plastic liner (item 19) which has been partly burned along with some boards.. The remains of the boards and liner are now trash. A rolled up pillow tank (item 14) can be seen in the foreground Photo #10 was taken from the southeast corner of the drillsite pad looking from the northeast across the pad at the area where the drilling crew camp (item 20) had been located for this drillsite. Scattered and ungraded gravel areas are evident in this photo as well as scattered boards (item 21) and a trash pile (item 22). Photo Ii was also taken from the vicinity of the southeast corner of the drillsite pad, but it is looking back oveP the stack of deteriorated mud (item 17), across the tundra to the south, in the background can be seen pieces of plastic, paper and trash (item 23). The pit area can also be seen in this photo, it appears to be just another lake, (item 2). The nine photos at this location show the progress of the work to date per- formed by Mobil's crews. This well ¥~as plugged and "Abandoned" on July 2, 1971 and awaits clean-up so that the final location inspection can be made. Major equipment and materials have been pi led in neat stacks large enough so they may be located in the winter time when the frozen tundra will al Iow hauling to a permanent location. There appears to be much work that hasn't bean done, such as hand pick-up of trash and debris. This work will have to done in the summer time when the snow isn't there to cover the debris. The wel I- head work has not been completed, no attempt at grading the pad, fi I! lng in the cai lar, pulling the mouse and rat hole casements, covering or cutting up the pilings, leveling the fuel revetment or filling in the pit area, has been attempted. The paper work on this well, based on a P-3, approved July 15, 1971 indicates that clean-up work was to have been performed and supplies Homer L. Burrell November 30, i973 moved out by the end of fall of 1971, as the weather permitted. It appears we are at least two seasons away from the final inspection of this location- where the well was plugged .2½ years ago. I recommend that we contact the operator with regards to his intentions and timing to complete the final abandonment of this location. We arrived back in the vicinity of the ARCO's base camp at Prudhoe Bay at 3:55 p.m. To the northwest there appeared to be enough light to continue inspection and photos so I had the pi lot head for the Point Storkersen well. As we flew past the Point Mclntyre landing strip I noted the tremendous amount of clean-up.work that had been performed in that vicinity. Large stacks of oil drums had been stock pi led in neat stacks. Trash and debris had also been picked up and piled. I noted a crew of three men working along the coastline at the time we flew past and I saw more pi les of drums and debris stacked along the beach area. Exxon's Point Storkersen #1_, Sec.. 7, TI2N~ RI4E, U.H. When we arrived at this well and circled the location I was amazed at the remarkable clean-up job that had been accomplished for this had been one of the unsightliest well locations on the North Slope area. As we swung around the location I took Photo #12 which was the first of eight photos (nos. 12-19) taken at this location. This photo, taken looking toward the northeast, sh~s the wellhead (Item I), the fllled in pit area (item 2), a neat stack of mis- cellaneous supplies (item 3), and the old camp area (item 4). We landed and ! quickly took Photo #13, looking toward the east showing the welihead with the christmas tree still in place ( item l ) with all outlets, both on the cas- ing and the christmas tree, closed with blind flanges. Cellar boards (item 5), are still in place along with refrigeration pipes (item 6) which can be seen sticking up around the perimeter of the cci iar. Both the rat and mouse hole casements (item 7) are still in place. Photo #14., taken looking_east along the south edge of the gravel pad, shows the location (item 4) of the otd camp area. This area was originally one of the dirtiest areas of the location, it is now remarkably clean; however, there are still bits of trash (item 8) such as paper cups, cans and such that need to be picked up. Photo #15' is a view of the wellhead (item !) looking toward the north. This picture is dark even with the camera open to the widest setting. Several things can be seen how- ever, in the foreground are some boards and also a steel band sticking out of the gravel (item 9). These items obviously were not picked up after the back dragging was complete. Item I0 is gravel that was never graded level. Photo #16 was looking to the east from the edge of the gravel pad and shows the lake (item II) east of the location, miscellaneous debris (item 12), both in and around the lake, and one of the buildings (item 13) at the Point Mclntyre landing strip. Photo #!7 was taken looking toward the northwest and shows the large neat Stack of mi scel l aneous suppt i'es (item 3) that are to be re- moved from the location and the northwest corner of the gravel pad (item 14). Photo #18 shows two pieces of debris (item 15) located just off the north- west corner of the pad. Photo #19 shows the wel Ihead (item i) looking to the south and the large neat stack of miscelianeous suppi les (item 3). Homer L. Burre I I -4- November 30, 1973 This well was plugged and "Abandoned" September 3, 1970 but location clean-up for the final inspection has yet to be accomplished. It is obvious that a great deal of work has occured at this location since my previous inspection here in August of 1972; however, the work is not complete. It is evident from several of the photos that additional hand clean-up, work is necessary both on the pad and In the vicinity around the pad. The wellhead itself is in an unsatisfactory condition with the christmas tree being left in place. It should be removed and a proper .P&A marker instal led. The cellar should be removed and or filled along with removal of all the refrigeration pipes and mouse and rat hole casements. The stack of miscellaneous supplies will have to be removed prior to the final inspection. It is recommended that the operator be contacted as to the timing and the amount of remaining work so that the final inspection can be performed next summer on this location. We departed the Point Storkersen location at 4:38 p.m.. It was too dark for any further work of this sort, however, it was still light enough for visual inspection so I had the. pilot swing over the Kup Delta location which is very near to this location. (The possibility of this coastal area being fog bound the next morning was very imminent.) As we swung over the location t could see that a great deal of clean-up had been done here since my last visit. It appeared, however, that the 30 foot aluminum mast that had been left on the location last year was still there. It does not belong to the operator and he doesn't consider it his responsibility to remove it. In general the location looked good and we swung back south and headed for Dead- horse, arriving at the Gay Airways helicopter landing area on the Deadhorse airstrip at 4:55 p.m. After making plans ~vith the helicopter pi tot for an early morning departure ! drove to the Mukluk base camp and got a room for the even ing. At dinner I.met Mr. Tom Moseley, a geologist with the U.S.G.S., and found out that he had made plans to use the same helicopter for the next morning. Mr. Moseley was recording temperature data through, the permafrost interval in many of the we i Is that had been made ava i l able to their use on the North S lope. Thursday, September 20, 1973 - We drove from the Mukluk base camp to Dead- horse airstrip and after loading Tom Moseley's equipment into the helicopter ~e took off .at 7:15 a.m. and headed for Prudhoe Bay where we landed at the Prudhoe Bay landing area and picked up Mr. Frank Hunt, an Arco foreman, who was to help Mr. Moseley with his survey. ARCO's North Prudhoe Bay State #23-12-14~. Sec. 23., ,TI2N,...R.I.4E~ U.M. We then flew north to the ARCO's North Prudhoe Bay State well vshere I took' Photo #20 an aerial vie~ of the location from the south. This photo sho~s ~he"wei'l house (item i)~ the drilling rig matting (item 2) and the open pit area (item 3). After a brief landing to drop off the two men and their equip- ment we continued to the northwest and soon arrived at the Kup Delta location. Homer L. Burrel I -5- November 30, 1973 Continental's Kup Delta #51-1 and 51-2, Sec. II,TI2N, .RI.3E, U.M. i took Photo #21 from the air as we approached the location from the south- east, the Beaufort Sea can be seen to the north and northwest. This photo shows the wellhead (item I), the filled pit area (item 2), the camp area (item 3), the 30 foot aluminum tower (item 4) and tracks made by a roi l- agon (item 5). These tracks are not as damaging as they might appear, for they only mashed down the grass which appear in the photo.to be a heavy deep traCk. Two wells were drilled from this location, but there is only one surface hole because the second well was kicked off at the 3,000 foot level after the first well had been abandoned. We landed and I took Photo #22_, looking back toward the northeast showing the wellhead (item I) with blind flange, the 30 foot aluminum tower (item 4) and the cellar (item 6); the helicopter can also be seen in this photo. Photo #23, was taken looking toward the northwest from the edge of the old pit area and shows trash (item 7) scattered over a considerable area. Photo #24, was taken from the woutheast portion of the pad looking back toward the west and shows the wel Ihead and cellar (item I) and some trash in the foreground (item 8). Photo #25, was taken on the tundra looking north along the west end of the pad and shows some 3" X 12" boards that were left embedded in the tundra (item 9). This well has been "Suspended" since August 26, 1970 and considerable clean- up work has been performed here since my last visit in August of 1972. We departed the Kup Delta at 8:55 a.m. and headed west for the Milne Point i o ca- tion. Placid's Plagham Beechey Point Supply ?ep~; Sec- 14, TI3N, RILE, U..~.__ As we flew west along the beach we soon approached Piacid's Beechey Polnt Supply depot and I took Photo #26, which shows' the gravel stock pile (item I) six full pillow tanks of fuel (item 2) and a large supply of casing and pil- ing (item 3). This location seemed to be in the same clean condition as on my previous visit last year. Continental's Mi Ine Point #18-1, Sec.. I_I_,__ T13~_~ ~RI~E_, U_._Mm After flying slightly past the Mi lne Point location we circled back and approached it from the southeast and I took Photo #27 from the air which shows the well- head (item !), the fuel revetment with two pillow tanks (item 2) and the Jevel- ed pit area (item 3). We landed and I took Photo #28, looking toward the northwest, showing the wellhead with blind flanges on the christmas tree (item I) and the cellar and rig matting still in place (item 3). i then ±ook Photo _//29, looking west along the north edge of the gravel pad, sh~ling the fuel revetment with two full pillow tanks in place (item 2) and a welisign on the edge of the pad (item 4). Photo #30, was taken on the east edge of the gravel pad looking north. It shows trash and debris Scattered off the north- east corner of the pad (item 5). This had been the location of the crew quarters. Photo #31, is looking from the middle of the pad toward the north- west and shows scattered debris on the northwest corner of the pad (item 6). This well was "Suspended" July 18, 1970 and considerablb clean-up work had been done since my last visit in August 1972. We took off at 9:25 a.m. and headed west for the Colville River delta area. Homer L. Burrel I -6- November 30, 1973 Gulf's Colville Delta State..#1, Sec. 9, TI3N,. R6E,.. U..M. There was very little to distinguish this location since it is on the Colville Delta, which is sometimes under water at high tide or when the river runs high. We soon located the well and I took Photo #32, from the air, looking toward the west which shows the wellhead (item i) and a stack of material (item 2). We landed and ! took Photo #33, looking toward the west which shows the wel Ihead with P&A marker in place (item I), a stack of material in the background (item 2) and some pieces of trash which were plastic material (item 3). Photo #3_4_ was a similar view, taken from the north looking back to the south, showing the wel. lhead:P&A' marker (item i),'a stack of material (item 2) and several pieces of plastic trash (item 3). This well has been plugged and "Ab'andoned" and this was the final inspection on this location. Although there still · remained a small stack of materials, mostly boards to be removed from the location I filled out a Field Trip Inspection Report (attach'ed) statin, cg' .that the fina~ .inspection would be approved when these items were removed..('commu- nication with Gulf and a duplicate photo of this location resulted in the re- moval of the trash and materials and a formal release of the bond on this lo- cation was approved). .. · . . We departed .the .G.ulf location at I0:00 a.m. and headed back ;so.u~'l~e~st where we soon flew past Mr. Bud Heimrlcks house and airstrip_ located on the Col- vi lie River Delta. I took Photo #35 as we flew past. showing his house and miscellaneous buildings (item !), his airstrip (item 2) and a large stack of fuel barrels beyond his house (item 3). Union's Katubik's Creek Unit #l, Sec. 10.~]]I.2N, R8E, ..U...~.M. This well was plugged March .27, 1970 and is now waiting for clean-up and final location approval. Mr. Helmrick has a contract to clean up this location. As we flew past, ! took Photo #36 .. showing the wellhead with marker (item I), the pit area (item 2), supplies and equipment still on the location (item 3) and the location of the rig stacked at the mouth of the Kal ubik River (item 4). As we proceeded back to Deadhorse I took Photo #37 showl ng BP's new Prudhoe Operations Camp under construction. The installation construction crews were at work putting it together. It shows the main building (item I), tanks in the background (item 2), and the Spine Road (item 3). Just a little ways down the road we came to the BP Central Power Plant where i took Photo #38., showing the power plant under construction (item i), the transformers (item 2) and the gas supply well location in the far-background (item 3). We arrived back at the Gay Ai-rways helicopter landing site at the east end of the Deadhorse strip at !0:37 a.m. and I quickly made arrangements to depart Deadhorse on the Wein flight at Ii:00 a.m. I noticed the drilling rig had been moved from the location of the Socal well #31-25.at Deadhorse and a new control tower had been constructed just to the west of the old Socal pad. Some suppl les have been stacked up around the welihead but all of the rig equipment, debris and trash have been removed. The north edge of this pad had at one time been a regular "dump ground" for camp trash. Homer~L. Burreli -7- November 30, 1973 I departed Deadhorse on the 12:15 p.m. flight and returned to Fairbanks and Anchorage by 3:00 p.m. On this field trip I took 38 photos of ten different locations on the North Slope coverlng an area from 50 mi les east of Deadhorse to 55 mi les west of Deadhorse and as far as 20 miles north of Deadhorse. This field inspection trip has already resulted in the final approval of the "Abandoned" Colville Delta location (Gulf) and it has shown the degree of clean-up ~.~ork that has been performed by operators on other locations, which gives a good idea of the work yet remaining to be done. It is recommended that we talk to certain operators concerning work remaining undone where wel is have been plugged, such as Exxon's Point Storkersen and East Mikkelsen wells, Mobil's West Staines State and Mikkelsen State wells and Unton's Katubik Creek well.
