Alaska
IT APPEARING THAT:
1. In correspondence dated January 12, 2005 BPXA requested the Commission to
modify Area Injection Order No. 24 to allow injection of miscible hydrocarbons and
Prince Creek Formation water to enhance oil recovery from the Borealis Oil Pool.
2. The Commission published notice of opportunity for public hearing for the revision
of Area Injection Order No. 24 in the Anchorage Daily News on February 8, 2005.
3. On February 25, 2005 BPXA, in response to a Commission request, provided
additional information and revisions to some exhibits in the January 12, 2005
correspondence.
4. The Commission received no protests to BPXA's application for modification of Area
Injection Order No. 24 and no requests for public hearing.
FINDINGS:
1. Project Area and Pool Description:
a. Proposed Injection Area: BPXA requested authorization to inject fluids for the
purpose of enhanced recovery operations in the affected area of CO 471, which
defines pool rules for the Borealis Oil Pool ("BOP"), Prudhoe Bay Field, North
Slope Alaska.
b. Borealis Oil Pool: The BOP is defined as the accumulations of hydrocarbons
common to and correlating with the interval between 6534' and 6952' measured
depth ("MD") in the West Kuparuk State 1 well.
AIO 24A

Page 2
2. Operators/Surface Owners:
BPXA provided all operators and surface owners within one-quarter mile of the BOP
with a copy of the application for injection. Those operators are: BPXA, operator of
Milne Point Unit and Prudhoe Bay Unit, ConocoPhillips Alaska, Inc., operator of the
Kuparuk River Unit. The State of Alaska, Department of Natural Resources is the
only affected surface owner.
3. Description of Operation:
a. Proposed MI Expansion: BPXA is requesting Commission approval to allow
expansion of miscible gas injection operations throughout the BOP. Existing pilot
injection is currently allowed in wells L-I05i, L-I08i and V-IOOi. The project
involves the cyclical injection of water alternating with injection of enriched
hydrocarbon gas ("WAG") into the oil column of the Kuparuk River Formation of
the BOP. The miscible gas injection ("MI") to be used in the project will be
comprised of hydrocarbon gas, enriched with intermediate hydrocarbons,
principally ethane and propane.
Borealis injection wells are drilled from existing L, V and Z-Pads and may be
converted to allow WAG injection. Additional injectors may be drilled from
these pads and potentially from a future I-Pad currently under evaluation. The
Borealis MI injection project includes an MI pipeline from the existing Z-Pad and
trunk and lateral distribution systems at each pad. The only surface modifications
required to implement the Borealis EOR project will be to the header riser spools.
A request was made May 28, 2004 to convert wells L-I05i, L-I08i and V-I OOi to
implement an EOR MI injection pilot program. The Commission approved pilot
operations for a three-month period and the wells were converted to MI injection
on June 29, 2004. Subsequent approvals have extended the project to the current
time. Well L-I 08i, due to a well tie-in timing issue, was not used in the Pilot.
The main objectives of the pilot were to evaluate available MI system injection
pressure and reservoir gas injectivity. Injectivity was confirmed as sufficient to
handle the rates needed to provide both voidage replacement and EOR sweep in
an effective manner.
b. Proposed Prince Creek Water Injection: BPXA is requesting approval to allow
injection of Prince Creek source water as needed for pressure support. Currently,
produced water is being supplied from existing infrastructure to support the BOP
waterflood. Evaluation continues for use of Prince Creek (Ugnu and
Sagavanirktok) as supply for future waterflood. The W -400 well startup October
15, 2004 proves Prince Creek deliverability of at least 20,000 BWPD. The
Borealis Owners intend to inject water at a voidage replacement ratio greater than
one to restore reservoir pressure. The additional Prince Creek source water will
be helpful to meet this goal.
4. Current Development at Borealis:
Drilling commenced July 2001 with production startup in November 2001. Water

injection started in June 2002. Borealis production is commingled on the surface with
IP A and Orion production on L, V, and Z-Pads and processed at GC-2. Listed below
is additional information describing the BOP as of December 1, 2004. More detail
can be found in BPXA' s application.
· 17 wells drilled at V-Pad - 10 oil producers- 4 water injectors - 1 WAG
injectors - 2 abandoned for sidetrack
· 23 wells drilled at L-Pad - 14 oil producers - 8 water injectors - 1 WAG
inj ector
· 2 wells drilled at Z-Pad - 1 oil producer - 1 well shut-in
· Oil Production Rate: 21,300 BOPD
· Gas Production Rate: 17,000 MSCFD
· Water Production Rate: 18,000 MBWPD
· Water Injection Rate: 55,300 BWPD
· MI Injection Rate: 0 MMSCFD
· Cumulative Oil Production: 30.3 MMSTBO
· Cumulative Gas Production: 26.4 MMSCF
· Cumulative Water Production: 9.5 MMSTB
· Cumulative Water Injection: 33.5 MMSTB
· Cumulative Gas Injection: 0.6 BCF
BPXA is currently evaluating a proposed expansion of the Z- Pad, which would
accommodate additional development of the southern expansion area.
Additionally, BPXA is considering development of the northwest portion of the
BOP from a proposed I-Pad location.
5. Geoloe:ic Information:
a. Available Data: Production, seismic and well data have been used to characterize
the BOP.
b. Stratigraphy: The affected reservoir is the early Cretaceous-aged Kuparuk River
Formation ("Kuparuk"), which consists of very fine to medium grained quartz-
rich sandstone, interbedded with siltstone and mudstone.
Within the BOP, BPXA divides the Kuparuk into four stratigraphic intervals that
are designated, from oldest to youngest, A, B, C and D. The C interval contains
the primary reservoir sands of the BOP, and secondary accumulations occur in the
A and B sands.
c. Structure Overview: Within the BOP, the top of the Kuparuk lies between 6,200
and 6,900 feet true vertical depth subsea ("TVD"). The structure of interest is a
northwest-to-southeast trending antiform that is broken by two sets of faults: an
older set of northwest-southeast trending faults and a younger set of north-south
striking faults. The complexity of faulting, and production data from the BOP
demonstrate the reservoir is divided into separate fault bounded compartments.
)
)
AIO 24A
April 22, 2005
Page 4
d. Trapping Mechanism: Hydrocarbons are structurally and stratigraphically trapped
within the Borealis Oil Pool. The oil accumulation is bounded to the southwest by
northwest and north-south trending faults and the oil/water contact ("OWC"). To
the northeast, the accumulation is limited by the down-dip intersection of the top
of the reservoir with the OWC and with a series of north-south trending faults. To
the southeast, the reservoir is truncated by an intra-formational unconformity and
onlap onto the Prudhoe high. To the northeast, the reservoir sand intervals
degrade to non-reservoir quality.
e. Confining Intervals: The impermeable shales of the Kalubik Formation and the
HRZ have a combined thickness of approximately 110 feet and provide upper
confinement for the Kuparuk reservoir sands within the BOP. Lower confinement
is provided by shale and siltstone of the Miluveach and Kingak Formations.
6. Well L02S:
The logs of existing injection wells are on file with the Commission.
7. Mechanical Inte2rity:
All wells drilled and converted for injection service have been completed in
accordance with 20 AAC 25.412, thus satisfying the mechanical integrity
requirements as required by 20 AAC 25.402. The casing program for planned
conversions of existing water injection wells was permitted and completed in
accordance with 20 AAC 25.030.
A state witnessed MIT is required on wells prior to injection startup. In drilling all
Borealis injection wells, the casing is pressure tested in accordance with 20 AAC
25.030. Injection well tubing/casing annulus pressures will be monitored and
recorded on a regular basis. The Borealis Oil Pool injection wells will be designed to
comply with the requirements specified in 20 AAC 25.412.
8. Iniection Fluids:
Type of Fluid/Source: BPXA is requesting authorization to inject the following fluids
in the Borealis Oil Pool within the Prudhoe Bay Field:
· Produced water from Borealis or Prudhoe Bay Unit production facilities for the
purposes of pressure maintenance and enhanced recovery;
· Miscible Injectant from the Prudhoe Bay Central Gas Facility.
· Source water from the Prince Creek Formation;
· Non-hazardous water collected from well house cellars and standing ponds;
· Source water from a Seawater Treatment Plant.
9. Iniectant Composition and Compatibility with Formation:
As previously approved by the Commission, produced water from GC-2 is used as the
primary water source for Borealis injection. Injection performance, core, log and
pressure-buildup analyses indicate no significant problems with clay swelling or
AIO 24A
April 22, 2005
)
Page 5
compatibility with in-situ fluids.
BPXA analysis of cores from the BOP wells indicates relatively low clay content.
Petrographic analysis indicates that clay volumes in the better quality sand sections
(>20 md) are in the range of 3 - 6%. Clay volumes increase to approximately 6 - 12%
in rock with permeabilities in the range of 10 - 20 md. Below 10 md, clay volumes
increase to a range of 12 - 200/0. Most of the identified clay is present as intergranular
matrix, having been intermixed with the sand through burrowing. The overall clay
composition is a mixture of roughly equal amounts of kaolinite, illite and mixed layer
illite/smectite. No chlorite was reported during petrographic analysis.
The presence of iron-bearing minerals suggests that the use of strong acids should be
avoided in breakdown treatments, spacers, etc.
Water from the seawater treatment plant has been successfully used for injection
within the Kuparuk of the Pt. McIntyre Oil Pool.
Geochemical modeling indicates that a combination of GC-2 produced water and
connate water is likely to form calcium carbonate and barium sulfate scale in the
production welis and downstream production equipment. Scale precipitation will be
controlled using scale inhibition methods similar to those used at Kuparuk River Unit
and Milne Point Unit.
Miscible gas is a hydrocarbon with similar composition to reservoir fluids in the BOP
therefore no compatibility issues are anticipated with the formation or confining
zones.
The composition of injection water from the Prince Creek aquifer is expected to fall
within the range of Well W -400 and MPF -02 produced water compositions, less than
10,000-ppm total dissolved solids. Milne Point Unit F -Pad Prince Creek source water
has been injected since 1996 into the Milne Point Kuparuk Reservoir, lithologically
similar to the BOP, with no apparent formation damage. A single well chemical tracer
test in BOP well L-122 conducted using 640 barrels of Prince Creek Source water did
not detect any formation damage.
10. Injection Volumes and Pressures: Maximum expected water injection rates are 90
MBWPD, with maximum surface and bottom hole pressures of 3000 psi and 5000
psi, respectively. Maximum expected MI rates are 70 MMSCFD, with maximum
surface pressures of 3800 psi.
11. Fracture Information:
The L-l 0 1 well was fracture stimulated in the BOP Kuparuk C sand at the Borealis
Oil Pool, with a formation breakdown pressure of 4290 psi, which calculates to a
fracture gradient of 0.65 psi/ft at initial reservoir conditions. This data agrees with
data from offset fields containing wells completed in the Kuparuk.
The Kalubik and HRZ shales overlie the Kuparuk at the Borealis Pool with a
combined thickness of approximately 110 feet. The HRZ is a thick shale sequence,
which tends to behave as a plastic medium and can be expected to contain
AlO 24A
April 22, 2005
')
)
Page 6
significantly higher pressures than sandstones of the Kuparuk. Mechanical properties
determined from log and core data for the HRZ and Kalubik intervals indicate a
fracture gradient from approximately 0.8 to 0.9 psi/ft. Dipole Sonic evaluations of
these strata have measured values equal to or greater than 0.99 psi/ft confining stress.
The Kuparuk is underlain by the MiluveachlKingak shale sequence. A leakoff test in
the Kingak shale formation demonstrated leakoff at a gradient of approximately 0.85
psi/ft.
The expected maximum injection pressure in the Borealis wells will not initiate or
propagate fractures through the confining strata, and, therefore, will not allow
injection or formation fluid to enter any freshwater strata. There is no evidence of
injection out of zone for similar Kuparuk waterflood operations on the North Slope.
Water injection operations at the Borealis Pool are expected to be above the Kuparuk
parting pressure to enhance injectivity and improve recovery of oil. Fracture
propagation models confirm that injection above the parting pressure will not exceed
the integrity of the confining zone.
12. Aquifer Exemption:
On July 11, 1986, the Commission approved Aquifer Exemption Order 1 ("AEO-l ")
for Class II injection activities within the Western Operating Area of the Prudhoe Bay
Unit. The Borealis Pool is entirely within the area covered by AEO-l.
13. Hvdrocarbon Recovery:
a. Primary and Waterflood Recovery:
Estimates for original oil in place ("OOIP") for the BOP reflect current well
control, stratigraphic and structural interpretation, and rock and fluid properties.
The BOP current estimate of OOIP ranges between 310 and 430 MMSTB. The
extent of the range of estimates is due primarily to uncertainty in the BOP
structural definition, oil water contact and reservoir net pay interval estimates.
There is no free gas cap known in Borealis. Estimated associated formation gas in
place ranges from 135 to 200 BSCF. Primary and waterflood oil recovery is
estimated at 100-130 MMSTB based on field performance reservoir modeling. A
three-dimensional geologic and dynamic flow model of the Borealis accumulation
has been constructed based on detailed stratigraphic and structural interpretation.
This model provides the bulk reservoir volume and porosity distribution for the
BOP. The model area encompasses the known extent of the Borealis
accumulation. Model results indicate recovery of 27-30% OOIP from primary and
waterflood recovery mechanisms.
b. Miscible Injection Enhanced Oil Recovery
It is estimated that implementation of the proposed MI project will increase
recovery by 5% to 8%, or approximately 18-25 MMSTB of oil for the project.
Reservoir simulation based projections indicate the project will increase total
recovery from the BOP to 35% OOIP.
AIO 24A
April 22, 2005

)
Page 7
A completed slim-tube experiment defines the minimum miscibility enrichment
(MME) of the MI and confirms miscibility of BOP oil with the proposed MI over
the expected range of reservoir pressures. The MI source is the miscible gas from
the Prudhoe Oil Pool, which is richer than is required for Borealis miscibility. The
experiments have been matched using a Kuparuk 12-component equation of state.
BOP minimum miscibility pressure ("MMP") with the injectant is 2150 psi as
determined with the equation of state and consistent with the slim-tube
experiments. BOP average reservoir pressure is 3004 psi at the datum of 6600'
tvdss; this is the average of pressures measured in twelve wells in August of 2004.
These data are in agreement with the simulation field model estimate of 3098 psi
within the BOP area boundary. Pressure measurements in a few producers are
very close or slightly below the MMP; however, all pattern area pressures are
above the MMP.
Project performance forecasting is based on fine-scale fully compositional
reservoir simulation using Well L-1 0 1 fluid properties and whole core reservoir
description. The initial MI slug size target is approximately 7% of a type
injection-producer pattern polygon hydrocarbon pore volume with a nominal
WAG ratio of 1.0. The cumulative target size is nominally 20% of pattern
hydrocarbon pore volume or 95+ BSCF of miscible gas injection for the BOP,
though MI injection parameters will be subject to adjustment as field conditions
and performance indicate. After the cumulative target slug size of MI has been
injected into the formation, pressure support will be maintained with water
injection.
The BOP EaR gross efficiency is roughly 5 MSCF MI per barrel of EaR oil
generated. Without the BOP EaR Project injection, this MI would have been
injected into mature IP A EaR patterns that have a gross efficiency of 26
MSCF/STB. The Kuparuk River Oil Pool EaR project, a close analog for the
proposed BOP EaR project, commenced in 1988 and has incremental EaR
recovery of approximately 8-12% over waterflood. Analysis of Borealis oil
samples indicates similarity to Kuparuk oil characteristics for bulk composition,
wettability, and relative permeability effects.
c. Surveillance Plan;
To ensure the efficient allocation of MI for the Borealis EaR project, rate and
pressure response to injection will be monitored. Production fluid compositional
samples will be taken at least annually to assess pattern efficiency based on the
returned MI (RMI) ratio. Offset producers of injectors currently on MI can be
sampled on a more frequent basis to help determine break through times and flood
efficiency. Water injection surveillance will continue using pressure falloffs and
other monitoring methods as required by patterns. Injection of water and miscible
gas into patterns will be evaluated on a regular basis to address pattern
performance and optimum injection rates to maximize recovery.

14. Mechanical Condition of Wells within a One-quarter Mile Radius of Injectors
A report on the mechanical condition of each well that has penetrated the injection
zone within a one-quarter mile radius of a proposed injection well has been filed with
the AOGCC and is a part of the record for this order. Mechanical integrity has been
established for the subject wells based on calculated cement tops being at an adequate
height above the injection zone to prevent fluid that is injected into the BOP from
flowing into other zones or to the surface. Static pressure and repeat formation tester
data support the conclusion that the completions in offset wells beyond this radius are
sufficient to contain high pressure fluids, including gas, within the BOP. Prior to any
enhanced injection on wells without prior certification, wells will be demonstrated
through established approved testing procedures, with a requested State Inspector
present, to confirm mechanical integrity as required by 20 AAC 25 .402 (e). Although
injection pressure will exceed average BOP reservoir pressure, reservoir modeling
indicates rapid reservoir pressure falloff away from the injector during water and MI
injection. Reservoir modeling indicates a radius of pressure influence less than 1000
feet from the injector at the end of the MI cycle. Well tests are conducted routinely to
monitor the flow rates from wells for purposes of reservoir management, production
diagnostics and field allocation.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The application requirements of 20 AAC 25.402 have been met.
2. An area injection order is appropriate to allow injection of water, miscible gas, and
tracer fluids within the Borealis Oil Pool as described in BPXA's January 12, 2005
application under 20 AAC 25.460.
3. Information provided in this application shows that water and miscible gas injection
will significantly improve recovery.
4. The annual surveillance report required by CO 471 will keep the Commission
apprised of the performance of the injection project and EaR process evaluation.
5. Injection of enhanced recovery fluids at pressures above fracture gradient may be
necessary in order to provide sufficient pressure support. The fracture gradient of the
Borealis Oil Pool is significantly below the recorded leakoff pressures of confining
shale intervals and as such the water will preferentially stay within zone.
6. Injected fluids will be confined within the appropriate receiving intervals by
impermeable lithology, cement isolation of the wellbore and appropriate operating
conditions.
7. Reservoir surveillance, operating parameter surveillance and mechanical integrity
tests will demonstrate appropriate performance of the enhanced oil recovery proj ect
or disclose possible abnormalities.

Rule 6 Notification of Improper Class II Iniection
Injection of fluids other than those listed in Rule 2 without prior authorization is
considered improper Class II injection. Upon discovery of such an event, the operator
must immediately notify the Commission, provide details of the operation, and propose
actions to prevent recurrence. Additionally, notification requirements of any other State
or Federal agency remain the operator's responsibility.
Rule 7 Other conditions
a. It is a condition of this authorization that the operator complies with all applicable
Commission regulations.
b. The Commission may suspend, revoke, or modify this authorization if injected fluids
fail to be confined within the designated injection strata.
Rule 8 Administrative Action
Unless notice and public hearing is otherwise required, the Commission may
administratively waive the requirements of any rule stated above or administratively
amend any rule 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.

the date of the order, or next working day if a holiday or weekend, to be timely filed. The Commission shall grant or refuse the
application in whole or in part within 10 days. The Commission can refuse an application by not acting on it within the 10-day
period. An affected person has 30 days from the date the Commission refuses the application or mails (or otherwise distributes) an

RE: Request for Administrative Approval to Inject Hydrotest Water
Prudhoe Bay Unit Oil Pools
Dear Ms. Burgh:
BP Exploration (Alaska), Inc. ("BPXA") has notified the Commission of ongoing and planned
construction of replacement oil transit pipeline segments throughout the Prudhoe Bay Unit fields.
The pipeline segments must undergo pressure testing (referred to as "hydrotesting") to verify
integrity. Filtered lake water that is chemically treated with a corrosion inhibitor and an oxygen
scavenger will be used for hydrotesting the pipeline segments. The Commission has previously
approved the injection of filtered and treated lake water used to hydrotest a pipeline segment
between Lisburne L 1 production pad and the Lisburne Production Center ("LPC"), part of the
Greater Point McIntyre development area. Administrative approval under Area Injection Order
("Ala") 4E authorized, as an enhanced recovery injection fluid, hydro test water consisting of
treated and filtered lake water stored for fire fighting purposes (refer to Ala 4E.22).
The Commission approves BPXA's June 20, 2007 written request for authorization to inject
hydrotest water as an enhanced recovery fluid.
The composition of hydrotest water referred to in BPXA's current request appears to be no
different than that used to test the Lisburne replacement pipeline segment. BPXA has
demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Commission that the hydro test water, as described in the
June 20, 2007 œquest, is consistent and compatible with fluids used in routine enhanced
recovery operations in the Prudhoe Bay Unit oil pools and will not adversely impact the reservoir
or production equipment.
EaR Injection of HYdrot~Vater
June 2 L 2007
Page 2 0 f 2
.
The following AIO rules governing Injection operations in Prudhoe Bay Unit oil pools are
amended to include filtered and chemically treated lake water used for hydro testing replacement
pipeline segments to the list of fluids authorized for enhanced oil recovery injection:
AI 0 3 (Prudhoe Oil Pool), Rule 1
Ala 4E (Prudhoe Oil Pool), Rule 1
AIO 20 (Midnight Sun Oil Pool), Rule 1
AI 0 24A (Borealis Oil Pool), Rule 2
Ala 25A (Polaris Oil Pool), Rule 3
Ala 26A (Orion Oil Pool), Rule 3
Any change in the composition of the hydrotest water that has the potential to affect its
compatibility with formation fluid or the normal enhanced recovery injection fluid will require
additional review by the Commission before injection occurs. Similarly, any change in treating
chemical use that results in the hydrotest fluid exhibiting hazardous characteristics will require
additional review.
As provided in AS 31.05.080, within 20 days after written notice of this decision, or such further
time as the Commission grants for good cause shown, a person affected by it may file with the
Commission an application for rehearing. A request for rehearing is considered timely if it is
received by 4:30 PM on the 23rd day following the date of this letter, or the next working day if
the 23rd day falls on a holiday or weekend. A person may not appeal a Commission decision to
Superior Court unless rehearing has been requested.
DONE at Anchorae, Alaska and dated June 21, 2007.

RE: PBU V-114A (PTD 2031850) Request for Administrative Approval
Borealis Oil Pool
Dear Mr. Rossberg:
In accordance with Rule 8 of Area Injection Order ("AIO") 24A.000, the Alaska Oil and Gas
Conservation Commission ("AOGCC" or "Commission") hereby grants the request of BP
Exploration (Alaska) Inc. ("BPXA") for administrative approval to continue water injection in
the subject well. Before listing the approval conditions, however, the Commission will comment
on BPXA's operation of this well with pressure communication in violation of Commission
requirements.
Borealis Oil Pool (part of the Prudhoe Bay Unit) well V-114A commenced enriched gas
injection in September 2006. Pressure data indicate the well operated with a stable inner annulus
pressure ranging from 600 to 900 psi until mid-June 2007. During subsequent months leading up
to BPXA's notification to the Commission on August 29, 2007 of pressure communication, PBU
V-pad personnel engaged in the active management of increasing inner annulus pressure with
periodic bleeds. Pad operating personnel monitoring the well pressures have applied annulus
pressure triggers from Conservation Order 492 (applicable to production wells only) in operating
this well. BPXA is reminded that there is a more stringent requirement governing annular
pressures in injection wells than development wells; immediate notification is required for
a~ indication of pressure communication or leakage in an injection well. Pressure data
provided with this administrative approval request indicate that the Commission should have
been notified of pressure communication, and the well should have been swapped to water
injection in June 2007 instead of September 2007.
At no time during the months of increasing inner annulus pressure has there been any indication
of pressure communication or leakage outside of the well; all injection has remained confined to
the Borealis Oil Pool and the wellbore. Therefore, the Commission does not intend to take
enforcement action against BPXA at this time for the continued injection of gas into PBU V-
114A in the presence of pressure communication to the inner annulus. Notification delays in
the future will result in enforcement actions.
AIO 24A.002
December 10, 2007

.~,
Regarding the administrative approval request to allow continued injection of water only, the
Commission finds that BPXA has elected to perform no corrective action at this time on PBU V-
114A. The Commission further finds that, based upon reported results of BPXA's diagnostic
procedures and wellhead pressure trend plots, PBU V-114A exhibits two competent barriers to
the release of well pressure. Accordingly, the Commission believes that the well's condition
does not compromise overall well integrity so as to threaten human safety or the environment.
AOGCC's administrative approval to continue water injection in PBU V-114A is conditioned
upon the following:
1. BPXA shall daily record wellhead pressures, injection rate, and annuli pressure bleeds;
2. BPXA shall submit to the AOGCC a monthly report of well pressures, injection rates,
and IA pressure bleeds;
3. Every 2 years, BPXA shall perform an MIT-IA to 1.2 times the maximum anticipated
well pressure;
4. BPXA shall immediately shut in the well and notify the AOGCC if there is any change in
the well's mechanical condition;
5. After a well shut in due to a change in the well's mechanical condition, injection in the
well shall not be restarted without AOGCC approval, and
6. The MIT anniversary date is November 3, 2007.
As provided in AS 31.05.080(a}, within 20 days after written notice of this decision, or such
further time as the Commission grants for good cause shown, a person affected by it may file
with the Commission an application for reconsideration. A request for reconsideration is
considered timely if it is received by 4:30 PM on the 23rd day following the date of this letter, or
the next working day if the 23rd day falls on a holiday or weekend. A person may not appeal a
Commission decision to Superior Court unless reconsideration has been requested.
DONE at c i rage, Alaska and dated December 10, 2007.

Subject: Prudhoe Bay well V-114A (PTD #2031850)
Request for Administrative Approval: Continued Water Injection Operations
Dear Mr. Norman,
BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. requests approval for continued water injection operations
into Prudhoe Bay well V-114A.
Well V-114A exhibits manageable inner annulus re-pressurization of 120 psi/day when
on MI injeciton. However, a pressure test of the inner annulus passed to 4000 psi,
indicating the tubing and production casing are competent. Based upon sound
.engineering practice, two barriers have been established and the well can be safely
operated. Consequently, no repairs are planned at this time.
In summary, BPXA believes Prudhoe Bay well V-114A is safe to operate as stated
above and requests administrative approval for continued water injection operations.
If you require any additional information, please contact me at 564-5637 or Anna Dube /
Andrea Hughes at 659-5102.
Sincerely,
Steve Rossberg

Prudhoe Bay Oil Pool well V-114A
Technical Justification for Administrative Approval Request
November 20, 2007
Well History and Status
Prudhoe Bay well V-114A (PTD #2031850) exhibits manageable inner annulus
repressurization indicated by wellhead pressure trends on a TIO plot. An MIT-IA to 4000
psi passed on 11/03/07 indicating competent tubing and production casing.
Recent Well Events:
> 09/04/07: IA BUR 120 psi /day on MI
> 10/02/07: MITIA Passed to 1500 psi
> 11/03/07: AOGCC MITIA Passed to 4000 psi
Barrier Evaluation
The primary and secondary barrier systems consist of tubing and production casing and
associated hardware. A pressure test of the inner annulus passed to 4000 psi,
demonstrating competent primary and secondary barrier systems.
Proposed Operating and Monitoring Plan
1. Record wellhead pressures and injection rate daily.
2. Submit a report monthly of well pressures and injection rates to the AOGCC.
3. Perform a 2-year MIT-IA to 1.2 times maximum anticipated injection pressure.
4. The well will be shut-in and the AOGCC notified if there is any change in the
wells mechanical condition.

Dear Mr. Norman:
BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. (BPXA) requests approval under Area Injection Order
(AIO) 4E Rule 9, AIO 3 Rule 9, AIO 20 Rule 9, Ala 24A Rule 8, AIO 25A Rule 13, and
Ala 26A, Rule 11 to utilize water from pressure testing (also known as hydrotesting)
replacement oil transit pipeline segments as an enhanced oil recovery (EOR) fluid in the
various Greater Prudhoe Bay pools listed above. This water will temporarily augment
ongoing water injection in the pool by providing additional water volume. During
injection, the Class IT disposal wells at FS-3 and GC-l will be shut in to ensure all of the
hydrotest water will be utilized for EOR.
FS-l to Skid 50 Oil Transit Line Segment
Approximately 26,500 feet of 18" pipeline is under construction to replace a section of
oil transit pipeline. This line will carry production from the FS-l to Skid 50 and is
scheduled for pressure testing before the end of June. Approximately 7700 barrels of
treated lake water will be used to pressure test the line. After the pressure test is
complete, the hydrotest water will be displaced into a tank and then into pipeline to FS-3,
mixing with produced fluids. At FS-3 the water will be separated in the process trains
and injected in EOR wells at DS 13 and 14. In this way, the hydrotest water will augment
the current water injection in the Prudhoe Oil Pool. The total volume of produced water
injection is about 150,000 bpd, and the dilution of the hydrotest water with produced
water will minimize any potential water compatibility issues.
GC-2 to GC-l Oil Transit Line Segment
Apprüximately 16,200 feet of 20" pipeline is under construction to replace a seciÍon of
oil transit pipeline. This line will carry production from GC-2 to GC-l and is scheduled
for pressure testing in late June or early July. Approximately 5900 barrels of treated lake
Mr. John Norman, chelan

.
water will be used to pressure test the line. After the pressure test is complete, the
hydrotest water will be displaced into a tank and then into pipeline near GC-1, mixing
with produced fluids. Depending on the process configuration at the time, the GC-1
water may also be routed to GC-3 then to FS-3. Given the configuration uncertainty,
some hydrotest water could be injected in the following pools: Prudhoe, Midnight Sun,
Borealis, Polaris, or Orion, at pads E, L, R, U, V, W, Z or DS 13 and 14. In this way, the
hydrotest water will augment the current water injection. The total volume of produced
water at GC-1 is about 100,000 bpd and the dilution of the hydrotest water with produced
water will minimize any potential water compatibility issues
In both cases, the lake water will be filtered and treated with a corrosion inhibitor and an
oxygen scavenger. At the specified chemical concentrations, the treated lake water will
be considered non-hazardous.
Alternatives to proposed beneficial use of the hydrotest water include surface discharge
after filtration under a NPDES permit, or trucking the water to a suitable disposal site.
The difficulty in removing very small particles limits the effectiveness of filtration
treatment to meet NPDES effluent limits for turbidity and color. The option of trucking
the hydrotest water to Pad 3 would require multiple loads increasing the complexity of
the job and the possibility of a spill.
We believe the best option for handling the hydrotest water from this replacement
pipeline is to use it to augment the OPB waterflood/EOR project. Additional pipeline
replacement projects are in progress or are planned elsewhere in the Greater Prudhoe Bay
area, so BPXA may have additional requests to beneficially reuse pipeline hydrotest
water at other field locations in the future. Please call me at 564-5229 if you have any
questions.
Sincerely, .

Dear Commissioners:
I am writing to amend my January 12, 2005 letter requesting modification of Borealis
Pool Area Injection Order 24. In that letter, I requested that Exhibits IV -1 and IV -2 be
kept confidential by the Commission under AS 31.05.035. This letter was then updated
on January 28,2005 to include revisions to Exhibits IV-l and IV-2.
Please consider this letter as authorization from BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. to amend

The previous email dated Jan 27 2005 does state our position. I have since found the official letters that
had been sent to your office via certified mail, dated 1/28/05 and 2/25/05, and unfortunately the letter
does not specifically release you from the confidentiality of exhibits IV-1 and IV-2. I will request the Gus
write a new letter specifically addressing this.
In summary, the maps labeled exhibits IV-1 and IV-2 are not confidential, however the SWTT must
remain confidential.

Claire, Bruce,
Maybe this e-mail was it? You did send out revised information on Feb. 25 and a letter request for
extending the pilot. However, neither one specifically removed the confidentiality requirement
(though requirement for confidentiality of the single well tracer test was emphasized.) Based upon
your e-mail, though, I would assume this e-mail is your official response and we can put these items in
the public record. Correct?
One other item. Bruce, you brought over some infonnation for Bob on Prince Creek use in Milne. Is
that for the public record?

2) We agree with you and have removed the confidentiality request on exhibits IV-1 and IV-2.
3) A letter requesting an extension was sent out this week.
4) Done
Thanks again,

Subject: Borealis Pool Rules Area, Confidentiality; and pilot term
Bruce and Frank,
1) Exhibit 1-1 shows the pool boundary, which appears to be the same as the
pool rule boundary. However IV-1 ,and IV-2 appear to have a different
boundaries marked. Perhaps these are the PA and Unit boundaries? It would be helpful if the pool
rule boundary is marked on these.
2) We don't understand why Exhibits IV-1 and IV-2 are requested to be held confidential. Net pore
foot maps were provided in the original pool rules hearings, and these were not requested to be held
confidential.
Plus, Gil Buehler requested in his letter of April 16, 2002 that the term requested for confidentiality of
three of the exhibits was 24 months, so all those exhibits are in the public domain as well. We
request that you reconsider your request for confidential treatment of Exhibits IV-1 and IV-2 (with the
pool boundaries), else provide more thorough information as to why confidential treatment is needed.
3) The term on the MI pilot ends Jan 31. We suggest you apply for an extension of the pilot to April
1. This should allow sufficient time to process the full AIO.
4) Finally, we likely will amend the Conservation Order - CO 471, to specifically allow MI as an
enhanced recovery technique at the time the AIO is amended to allow MI throughout the pool. No
need to change your application for this, however, you might want to mention this in your letter you

RE: Borealis Pool Area Injection Order 24 and Conservation Order 471 Modification
- Revised Exhibits
Dear Commissioners:
On behalf of the Prudhoe Bay Owners, BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. (BPXA) requests
modification of Conservation Order No. 471 and Area Injection Order No. 24 to encompass
the injection of miscible injectant and Prince Creek water to enhance recovery from the
Borealis Oil Pool. Per Commission request, the attached information revises Exhibits VII-1
with the addition of a pressure profile; adds Exhibit IX-1 documenting the sensitivities of EOR
recovery to cumulative MI target size; and adds Exhibit IX-2 showing the current pressures in
Borealis field. Also per Commission request, the previously submitted single well tracer test
(SWTT) documentation may be added to the hearing record for this order, but must be
maintained as confidential pursuant to AS 31.05.035(d). This material is not information
that is required to be submitted under AS 31.05.035(a), and contains trade secrets and
engineering, geological and other information, and interpretations thereof.
BPXA hereby supplements the record in response to the above matters.
Should you have any questions regarding this request, please contact Bruce Smith at 564-
5093, Frank Paskvan at 564-5749. or Claire Sullivan at 564-5841.

Summary of Activities
Summarized below are significant accomplishments at Borealis from August 1, 2003
through December 1, 2004:
· After a three-year drilling hiatus at Z-Pad, BPXA drilled and completed well Z-
100 under Tract Operations. A Z-Pad Kuparuk development program had been
abandoned after the poor performance of Z-101 in 2001. Acquisition of the Z-39 well
core in 2002, improved the Kuparuk reservoir description and understanding of siderite
cementation in the Z-Pad area lead to drilling of Z-100. Z-100 came on production in
March, 2004 at 4300 BOPD.
· Evaluating a new multi-well plan of development for Z-Pad based on improved
reservoir description from Z-39 and Z-100.
· Subsurface analysis indicates a strong potential for development north of Borealis
at future I-Pad. Examination of Texaco Prudhoe No.1 core shows favorable reservoir in
the lower Kuparuk C and upper Kuparuk B Sands. An ice pad appraisal well is being
considered for first or second quarter of 2005.
· Action on an application is pending for the Borealis P A expansion to northward
for future I-Pad development and southward for southern V-Pad and Z-Pad development.
· Borealis booster pumps located at Z-Pad sanctioned and on-line October 15,
2004.
· Uptime during 2002,2003 and 2004 averaged 75%, 87%, and 77%, respectively.
· L&V-Pad trunk and lateral expansions sanctioned for up to 24 new wells per pad.
· Began EOR with conversion of wells V-I 00, L-105 and L-108 to miscible gas
injection. Pilot project started June 28, 2004.
· Drilled and completed 6 new grass roots wells, V-Ill, V -117, V -114 Ai, V -119i,
V-lIS and Z-IOO. V-117, V-114Ai, V-119i, V-lIS and Z-IOO were drilled and are
producing/injecting under tract operations, pending the Borealis P A expansion approval.

· L-122 single well tracer test shows potential benefit to low salinity water
flooding.
· Work continues on Prince Creek (U gnu and Sagavanirktok) units as supply for
future waterflood. The W-400 well startup October IS, 2004 proves Prince Creek
deliverability of at least 20,000 BWPD.
Development Drilling
Exhibit 111-2 lists Borealis Region wells completed in the Kuparuk Formation by spud
date.
Recent development includes seven (7) development wells drilled from V-Pad: V-III,
V-114Ai, V117, V119i, V-lIS, V-I06A and V-120. Wells V-III, V-lIS and V-117 are
horizontal producers. V-114Ai is a horizontal injector. V-I06A is a horizontal sidetrack
of V -106. In portions of V -Pad, horizontal wells are utilized to improve development
well rates; vertical well V-IOO showed relatively low core permeability (6 md average)
and low oil production flow rate (225 bopd average). An additional horizontal producer
drilled from L-Pad may be drilled in 2004 or 2005.
The lack of reservoir quality sand in Z-IOI had previously condemned the southern
extent of Borealis. In late 2003, based on a new geologic and log model, the Z-IOO was
drilled from Z-Pad. Z-IOO is a vertical well that logged approximately forty feet of pay
and is producing 2700 bopd as of August 2004. As a result of this confirmation of the
model, BPXA applied for a southern extension of the Borealis P A. Additional drilling is
being considered for 2005 from the existing pad, including an injector to support Z-IOO.
Additionally, BPXA is currently evaluating a proposed expansion of the Z-Pad, which
would accommodate additional development of the southern expansion area.
I-Pad (an ice pad currently in the permitting stage) will provide appraisal opportunities in
the northern Borealis area. An appraisal well is planned for 2005.
BPXA will continue to evaluate the optimal number of development wells and their
location throughout the life of the reservoir. To determine reservoir limits, field
extension appraisal has been concurrent with development well drilling.

Projects
Preliminary engineering has begun for the Z-Pad expansion, and permitting is under way
for an ice pad for northern Borealis appraisal. Trunk and lateral extensions at L and V
Pads have been sanctioned with construction underway. Booster pumps have been
installed and started-up in October of 2004. These pumps increase water injection
pressure and rate for Borealis.
Water Injection
Water injection started in June 2002. One well, V-lOO, was drilled as a producer and has
been converted to an injector. Water injection distribution is provided as part of the L-
Pad and V -Pad facilities. Produced water is being supplied from existing infrastructure to
support the Borealis waterflood. Prince Creek source water may be used as additional
make-up water as needed for injection support.
The Borealis Owners intend to inject water at a voidage replacement ratio greater than
one to restore reservoir pressure.
Field reservoir pressure data is shown in Exhibits 111-3 and 111-4. Borealis Pool average
reservoir pressure is 3004 psi at the datum of 6600' tvdss; this is the average of pressures
measured in twelve wells in August of 2004. These data are in agreement with the
Borealis simulation field model estimate of 3098 psi within original P A area boundary.
A waterflood configuration with well spacing of approximately 160 acres per well is
anticipated. Water injection is not contemplated for the L-112 area and the V-l08 area.
Each of these areas is open to an aquifer of limited extent and drilling a supporting
injection well is not warranted. Future development may include injection support as
indicated by field performance.
Booster pumps have been installed at Z-Pad to boost water injection pressures at L and V
Pads and for certain Borealis wells at Z-Pad. The pump system is designed to increase
wellhead water injection pressure while remaining within limits specified in the Borealis
Area Injection Order.

Miscible Gas Injection Pilot
First Borealis Oil Pool MI injection occurred June 29, 2004. Pilot Activity Summary &
Learnings: Request was made May 28, 3004 to convert wells L-I05i, L-I08i and V-I00i
to implement an EOR MI injection pilot program. Wells L-I05i and V-I OOi were
converted to MI injection on June 29, 2004. Well L-I08i, due to a well tie-in timing
issue, was not used in the Pilot. The main objectives of the pilot were to evaluate
available MI system injection pressure and reservoir gas injectivity. MI was started with
3151 psi present on the V-pad header and 2845 psi present on the L-pad header. Since
startup, the average gas injection pressure at L-pad has averaged just over 3000 psi. Both
wells were placed on rates up to ....15 mmscfd. During the pilot, several facilities startup
issues not related to the pilot program developed and injection was interrupted numerous
times. Injectivity was confirmed as sufficient to handle the rates needed to provide both
voidage replacement and EOR sweep in an effective manner. The Pilot is deemed a
success and has led to submitting this application. Exhibits 111-5 and 111-6 show Wells V-
IOO and L-I05 miscible gas injection rate, water injection rate, and wellhead pressure
versus time. Well L-I 08 has not yet injected MI.

completion for these wells; injection well tubular has premIum threads to provide
integrity during injection of MI. Prior to startup, or as directed by the commission,
current injectors will have a commission witnessed pressure test to demonstrate the
mechanical integrity wellbore and tubular. Each of the wells listed above have also been
on water injection prior to this application, with full commission witnessed testing prior
to being placed on water injection except V -119i which is scheduled to be tested during
the week of December 15, 2004..
Cement evaluation logs have been run on all injectors (L-l03i, L-l05i, L-l08i, L-l09i, L-
Illi, L-115i, L-117i, L-119i, V-lOOi, V-l04i, V-l05i, V-114i and V-119i) interpreted
from direct measurement, cement is present providing isolation across and above the
Kuparuk Formation.
All drilling and production operations will follow approved operating practices regarding
the presence of H2S in accordance with 20 AAC 25.065. Actual casing programs are
included with the "Application to Drill" for each. API injection casing specifications are
included on each drilling permit application.
Injection Fluids
20 AAC 25.402(c)(9)
Type of Fluid/Source
Fluids authorized for injection for the BOP within the Prudhoe Bay Unit to enhance
recovery and provide pressure maintenance are:
1. Produced water from Borealis or Prudhoe Bay Unit production facilities for the
purposes of pressure maintenance and enhanced recovery;
2. Miscible Injectant from the Prudhoe Bay Central Gas Facility.
3. Source water from the Prince Creek Formation;
4. Non-hazardous water collected from well house cellars and standing ponds;
5. Source water from a Seawater Treatment Plant.
8 of 1 7
Application for Borealls Area Injection Order Modification )
1/12/05
Produced Water from the Prudhoe Bay Unit Production Facilities, source water from
Prince Creek Formation, and Miscible Injectant from the Prudhoe Bay Central Gas
Facility will be used as the primary sources of fluids for pressure maintenance and
enhanced recovery.
Composition and Compatibility with Formation and Confining Zones
The composition of PBU produced water and compatibility issues were addressed in the
original AIO application. The composition of Miscible Injectant planned for BOP
injection is shown in Exhibit VI-I. Exhibit VI-l also compares the Borealis crude oil
composition to Kuparuk Oil. Miscible gas is a hydrocarbon with similar composition to
reservoir fluids in the BOP therefore no compatibility issues are anticipated with the
formation or confining zones. The composition of injection water from the Prince Creek
aquifer is expected to fall within the range of Well W -400 and MPF-02 produced water
compositions shown in Exhibit VI-2. Prince Creek water injection compatibility with the
Kuparuk formation is established by:
(1) analog Milne Point Unit F-Pad injection (1996-present),
(2) analog Kuparuk River Unit injection (Prince Creek Source Water wells
supplied 100,000-135,000 bwpd from Jan-1983 to Dec-1985 prior to the Kuparuk
Seawater Treatment Plant started-up), and
(3) the BOP Single Well Tracer Test performed from August 10 to October 4,
2003 on Borealis Well L-122.
Maximum Injected Rate
Maximum miscible gas injection requirements at BOP are estimated at 70,000 MSCFD.
With increased surface pressures, maximum water injection requirements at BOP are
estimated 90,000 bwpd.
Injection Pressures
20 AAC 25.402(c)(10)
The average surface miscible gas injection pressure for the project is estimated to be
approximately 3100 psi. The estimated maximum surface injection pressure for the
Borealis EOR project is estimated to be approximately 3800 psi. The resulting bottom
9 of 1 7
) )
Application for Borealis Area Injection Order Modification

hole pressure will be limited by hydraulic pressure losses in the well tubing, with a
maximum expected bottom hole pressure of approximately 5000 psi. Installation of a
water booster pump, started-up in October of 2004 results in a maximum surface
injection pressure of approximately 3000 psi during water injection.
Fracture Information
20 AAC 25.402(c)(11)
The Kuparuk River Formation at the BOP is overlain by the Kalubik and HRZ shales,
which have a combined thickness of approximately 110 feet. The HRZ is a thick shale
sequence, which tends to behave as a plastic medium and can be expected to contain
significantly higher pressures than sandstones of the Kuparuk River Formation.
Mechanical properties determined from log and core data for the HRZ and Kalubik
intervals indicate a fracture gradient from approximately 0.8 to 0.9 psi/ft.
Leakoff tests were conducted in Well L-IOO, L-l Oland V-I 00 to determine the
formation breakdown pressure of the BOP suggests a fracture gradient of approximately
0.6767 psi/ft at initial reservoir conditions. These data agree with data from offset fields
containing wells completed in the Kuparuk River Formation.
The Kuparuk River Formation is underlain by the MiluveachlKingak shale sequence. A
leakoff test in the Kingak shale formation demonstrated a fracture gradient of
approximately 0.85 psi/ft.
Miscible gas and water injection operations at the BOP are expected to be above the
Kuparuk River Formation parting pressure to enhance injectivity and improve recovery
of oil. Fracture propagation models and fracturing operations for stimulating wells in the
BOP have involved injecting highly viscous fluids at high rates, 20-30 barrels per minute
(bpm), and surface pressures at an average of 5500 psi. During both actual and simulated
cases, the operations have not created net pressures sufficient to exceed the integrity of
the confining layers. Conditions for planned injection will be at lower rates, less than 10
bpm, and utilize lower viscosity fluids. These operations will result in lower net
pressures, and will not cause fracturing to occur through the confining layer. No
evidence exists of out of zone injection for analogous Kuparuk miscible gas or high-
pressure water flood operations on the North Slope.

Formation Water Quality
20 AAC 25.402(c)(12)
The compositions of injection water from GC-2 and BOP connate water were provided in
Exhibit VI-4 of the original AIO application. The composition of Borealis produced
water will be a mixture of connate water and injection water.
Fresh Water Strata
20 AAC 25.402(c)(13)
Under 20 AAC 25.440, Aquifer Exemption Order No. 1 exempts those portions of
freshwater aquifers lying directly below the Western Operating and K Pad Areas of the
Prudhoe Bay Unit, including the entire Borealis Oil Pool. The Tertiary sands in the
Sagavanirktok have measured total dissolved solids content of greater than 3000 mg/l in
the BOP with calculations of water salinity from open hole resistivity logs acquired in the
Prudhoe Bay Well E-16 indicate a salinity range of 40,000 to 45,000 ppm for Cretaceous
and Tertiary Sands above the Kuparuk River Formation.
Hydrocarbon Recovery
20 AAC 25.402(c)(14)
Primary and Waterflood Recovery
Estimates for original oil in place ("OOIP") for the Borealis accumulation reflect current
well control, stratigraphic and structural interpretation, and rock and fluid properties.
The BOP current estimate of OOIP ranges between 310 and 430 MMSTB. The extent of
the range of estimates is due primarily to uncertainty in the BOP structural definition, oil-
water contact and reservoir net pay interval estimates. There is no free gas cap known in
Borealis. Estimated associated formation gas in place ranges from 135 to 200 BSCF.
Primary and waterftood recovery is estimated at 100-130 MMSTB oil based on field
performance reservoir modeling. A three-dimensional geologic and dynamic flow model
of the Borealis accumulation has been constructed based on detailed stratigraphic and
structural interpretation. This model provides the bulk reservoir volume and porosity
distribution for the BOP. The model area encompasses the known extent of the Borealis
accumulation. The model has 400 feet by 400 feet (3.7 acre) cells and is defined
vertically with thirteen layers 5 to 25 feet thick. Faults and structural juxtapositions aree

honored in the model through the use of comer point geometry and non-local grid
connections. Water saturations in the reservoir model were established by capillary
pressure equilibrium. Oil water contacts were varied across the pool based on available
log data.
Exhibit VII-l shows forecast BOP production and injection. This forecast includes
improved recovery due to water injection and miscible gas injection.
Miscible Injection Enhanced Oil Recovery Project
The contemplated operation addressed in this application is a tertiary recovery project
using the enhanced oil recovery (EaR) technique of miscible gas displacement to
increase recoverable oil. It is estimated that implementation of the EaR Project will
increase recovery by 5% to 8%, or approximately 18-25 MMSTB of oil for the Project.
The project involves the cyclical injection of water alternating with injection of enriched
hydrocarbon gas into the oil column of the Kuparuk River sandstone formation of the
BOP. The miscible gas to be used in the project ("Miscible Injectant" or "MI") will be
comprised of hydrocarbon gas, enriched with intermediate hydrocarbons, principally
ethane and propane. The composition of Miscible Injectant planned for BOP injection is
shown in Exhibit VI-I.
Borealis wells are drilled from existing L, V and Z-Pads and may be drilled from a future
I-Pad currently under evaluation. The Borealis EaR Project consists of an MI pipeline
from the existing IPA MI line at Z-Pad to these pads and an on-pad trunk and lateral
distribution system, and the conversion of Borealis water injection wells to water
alternating gas (W AG) injection. Original water injection laterals were fabricated to
meet WAG specifications. Therefore, the only surface modifications required to
implement the Borealis EaR project will be to the header riser spools. Exhibit VII-2
shows the Borealis EaR MI distribution system. The west end MI line nominal capacity
is 135-150 mmscfpd of miscible gas injectant.
Injected MI fonns a miscible bank with reservoir oil through the exchange of
hydrocarbon components, effectively displacing nearly all of the contacted oil, resulting
in residual oil saturations significantly lower than with waterflood alone. Injected water

helps maintain reservoir pressure, retards gravity segregation of the miscible injectant,
and controls gas channeling. A completed slim-tube experiment defines the minimum
miscibility enrichment (MME) of the MI and confirms miscibility of BOP oil with the
proposed MI over the expected range of reservoir pressures. The MI source is the WOA
IP A Miscible Gas which is richer than is required for Borealis miscibility. The
experiments have been matched using a Kuparuk 12-component equation of state.
Exhibit VII-3 shows BOP minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) with the injectant is
2150 psi as determined with the equation of state and consistent with the slim-tube
experiments.
Project performance forecasting is based on fine-scale fully compositional reservoir
simulation using Well L-l 0 1 fluid properties and whole core reservoir description. The
simulation model is a 2D cross-section kite-shaped model with 38 by 71 cells X-Z with
l' thick layering and nominal 120 acre well spacing. The initial MI slug size target is
approximately 7% of a type injection-producer pattern polygon hydrocarbon pore volume
with a nominal WAG ratio of 1.0. The cumulative target size is nominally 20% of pattern
hydrocarbon pore volume or 95+ bscf of miscible gas injection for the BOP, though MI
injection parameters will be subject to adjustment as field conditions and performance
indicate. After the cumulative target slug size of MI has been injected into the formation,
pressure support will be maintained with water injection.
Exhibit VII-4 shows model oil saturations at initial conditions, after one year of
waterflood and after one and five years of miscible WAG injection. The BOP EOR gross
efficiency is roughly 5 mscf MI per barrel of EOR oil generated. Without the BOP EOR
Project injection, this MI would have been injected into mature IP A EOR patterns that
have a gross efficiency of 26 mscf/stbo.
The BOP EOR Project production and injection forecast based on this simulation work
and scaled to the Project is shown in Exhibit Vll-5.
The existing Kuparuk River Oil Pool EOR project has a history of success and is
considered a good analog for Borealis. The Kuparuk River Oil Pool EOR project
commenced in 1988 and has incremental EOR recovery of approximately 8-12% over

waterflood. Analysis of Borealis oil samples indicates similarity to Kuparuk oil
characteristics for bulk composition, wettability, and relative permeability effects.
Exhibit VI-l illustrates the compositional similarity between Borealis and Kuparuk oil.
The Kuparuk l2-component equation of state (EOS), tuned for Well L-lOl fluid
properties, was used in the reservoir simulation. Relative permeability utilized in the
simulation was derived from Pt. McIntyre core flood data.
Surveillance Plan
To ensure the efficient allocation of MI for the Borealis EOR project, rate and pressure
response to injection will be monitored. Production fluid compositional samples will be
taken at least annually to assess pattern efficiency based on the returned MI (RMI) ratio.
Offset producers of injectors currently on MI can be sampled on a more frequent basis to
help determine break through times and flood efficiency. Water injection surveillance
will continue using pressure falloffs and other monitoring methods as required by
patterns. Injection of water and miscible gas into patterns will be evaluated on a regular
basis to address pattern performance and optimum injection rates to maximize recovery.
Mechanical Condition of Wells within a One-quarter Mile Radius of
Injectors
20 AAC 25.402(c)(15)
Thirteen injection wells are proposed for MI service: Wells L-l03i, L-l05i, L-l08i,
L-l09i, L-llli L-115i, L-117i, L-119i, V-lOOi, V-l04i, V-l05i, V-114i and V-119i. A
map showing all penetrations through the BOP, and wells within a one-quarter-mile
radius of the injection wells are shown on Exhibit VIII-I. A report on the mechanical
condition of each well that has penetrated the injection zone within a one-quarter mile
radius of a proposed injection well is included as Exhibit VIII-2, with a copy of the most
recent schematic diagram for each well included as Exhibits V-I to V -13.
Mechanical integrity has been established for the subject wells based on calculated
cement tops being at an adequate height above the injection zone to prevent fluid that is
injected into the BOP from flowing into other zones or to the surface. Exhibit VIII-2
contains mechanical integrity data for well L-118 and V-115 that is within a one-quarter

mile radius the injectors L-119i and V -114i. All other wells are at a distance greater than
one-quarter mile. However, static pressure and repeat formation tester data support the
conclusion that the completions in offset wells beyond this radius are sufficient to contain
high pressure fluids, including gas, within the BOP. Prior to any enhanced injection on
wells without prior certification, wells will be demonstrated through established approved
testing procedures, with a requested State Inspector present, to confirm mechanical
integrity as required by 20 AAC 25.402 (e). Majority of the requested wells have been
certified as Service Wells allowing injection. Dates for recertification are on file with the
AOGCC. Although injection pressure will exceed average BOP reservoir pressure,
reservoir modeling indicates rapid reservoir pressure falloff away from the injector
during water and MI injection. Reservoir modeling indicates a radius of pressure
influence less than 1000 feet from the injector at the end of the MI cycle.
