Dear Ms. Lee:
As you can see from the prior Emails set out in the thread below, I am
inquiring about whether any production units have been established in the
Caribou Hills east of Ninilchik on Oilwell Road. Your assistance is
appreciated.

Mr. Kashi,
Here is the text of an email I sent to Mr. Yezierski last week in
response to his questions.
I am sorry I did not copy you on that response.
With regard to your specific questions on production units, I suggest
you contact
Ms. Carol Lee at the Division of Oil and Gas (DOG). Her eddress is above.

Mr. Yezierski,
The Unocal development you are referring to is called Happy Valley and
is within the Deep Creek Unit administered by the State Division of Oil
and Gas.
The AOGCC has issued permits for 8 wells to be drilled from the same pad
located in section 22. According to the information published for these
wells,
4 wells reach total depth in section 22 and 1 each in sections 14, 15,
21 and 28.
No wells have been proposed for sections 23 or 24.
Our regulations do require notice to landowners depending on the distance
from the proposed activity. In the case of these gas wells, all owners
within
3000' laterally of the well at the production zone should be notified.
Although you did not provide the footage distances to the section lines
for your
property, it would appear that it is likely beyond the 3000' notice
distance.
If you would like, we can add you to our notice list for any activities
that require
public notice in this area. You may also explore our web site at
www.aogcc.alaska.gov.
In the "Orders" section under conservation orders you will find several
orders relating to
the drilling of the wells at Happy Valley. "Drilling Statistics" would
have information
regarding when permits are issued or wells are completed.
With regard to Unit administration and other land activities, you might
contact Ms. Carol Lee
at the Division of Oil and Gas. I have included her eddress above.
I hope this information is of help.

Dear Mr. Krueger:
Enclosed is the approved revised application for permit to drill the above referenced
development well.
This permit to drill does not exempt you from obtaining additional permits or approvals required
by law from other governmental agencies, and does not authorize conducting drilling operations
until all other required permits and approvals have been issued. In addition, the Commission
reserves the right to withdraw the permit in the event it was erroneously issued.
Operations must be conducted in accordance with AS 31.05 and Title 20, Chapter 25 of the
Alaska Administrative Code unless the Commission specifically authorizes a variance. Failure
to comply with an applicable provision of AS 31.05, Title 20, Chapter 25 of the Alaska
Administrative Code, or a Commission order, or the terms and conditions of this permit may
result in the revocation or suspension of the permit. Plea provide at least twenty-four (24)
hours notice for a representative of the Commission to It ss any required test. Contact the
Commission's North Slope petroleum field inspector at 9- 7 (pager).

Attn: Commission Chair John Norman
Dear Commissioner Norman,
Attached for your approval is a revised application for permit to drill (Form 10-401) for
the Happy Valley #6 Well. The planned wellpath was moved more than 500' from it's /
current permitted bottom hole location. This move was to bring the well closer to existing
known Geologic data points.
The well was spudded '~--a004, from the permitted surface location. Winton
Aubert was notified immUo: our intentions to move the well path and re-permit.
Attached is a revised Application for Spacing Exception that corresponds to this new
bottom-hole location. If you have any questions please contact myself at 263-7628 or
Mr. Rob Stinson at 263-7804.
Sincerely,
\..ß~. /£

Maximum Anticipated Surface Pressure
Happy Valley Well #6
Kenai Peninsula, Alaska
Assumptions: v-JLtk
,4~~
1. Based on offset drilling & well test data, the pore pressure gradient is predicted to be a QA.4-'T psi/ft gradient from
surface to planned total depth at 11,383' TVD RKB. Unocal has drilled two wels to 9700' TVD on this pad, and has
reviewed data from three other deeper wells within a 2.5 mile radius (NNA #1, HV #31-22 & Deep Creek Unit #1).
2. The MAS.P. during drilling operations will be governed by the 7" shoe frac gradient, and is calculated based on a full
column of gas between the 7" shoe and the surface.
3. The MAS.P. during production operations will be the estimated SIBHP minus the gas hydrostatic pressure between
TD & the surface. The 7" intermediate casing must be designed to handle a potential burst load case based on a
shallow leak in the 31/2" pipe early in the life of a 10,839' TVD gas completion (Le. before reservoir pressure declines).
M.A.S.P. Calculation During Production Phase:
Max. pore pressure at T.D. = 10839 TVD x 0.433 = 4693 psi
MAS.P. (tbg leak at surface) = 4693 psi - (0.096 psi/ft * 10839 ft) = = 3652 psi
M.A.S.P. Calculation During Drilling Phase:
Est. Frac pressure at 7" shoe 5754 ft. x 0.8 psi/ft = = 4603 psi
MAS.P. during drilling 4603 psi - (.08 psi/ft x 5754 ft.) = 4143 /.
= = pSI

3. Circulate hole clean once on depth. LID one joint of9 5/8". PIU landingjoint/hanger assembly
& land hanger. MIU cement head & re-establish circulation.
4. Cement 9 5/8" casing as per the attached DS program. Pump 40 bbls 10.5 ppg MUDPUSH XL, /
56.4 bbl (160.7 sx) of 12.8 ppg lead cement and 23.8 bbl (114.4 sx) of 15.8 ppg tail cement.
Cement volumes are based on 737 ft oflead and 300 ft oftail, calculated on 25% excess over
calculated annular volume. Cement volumes should be adjusted if excessive washout is
suspected or if casing depth vary significantly from the program.
· Thickening time is 3:05 on the lead and 3:04 on the tail.
· Cement differential is predicted to be 250 psi when the plug bumps.
· Reciprocation of 9 5/8" casing is not required.
Note: Ifretums are lost, continue pumping until plug bumps. Perform top job.
5. Bump plug & pressure test to 2500 psi. Record test on chart per AOGCC requirement. Bleed
off & verify floats holding. If not, hold pressure until cement has setup.
· Estimated drilling Maximum Anticipated Surface Pressure = 2014 psi based on full evac at

3. Install wear bushing.
4. RIH wI 8 W' steerable BHA wI MWD. Mud motor will be a 6 o/,¡" MI-XP.
· Planned BHA includes string reamer ±1000' above bit to ream expected tight hole (mainly
in the Beluga). The KCl mud is expected to minimize waste generation (i.e. hole washout).
· Current planned BHA includes MWD wI turbine due to better ability to handle LCM
materials and MI-XP PDM.
6-3/4" MI-XP Motor specs: 1.20 AKO setting, capable of5 ~ dog legs, Max WOB =
36,000 Ib, Operating WOB = 23,600 Ib, Max RPM = 60, Operating differential = 870 psi
· Planned bit is used DS70FNPV (bit used on HV #3, #4 and #5). This bit is regarded as
aggressive and somewhat difficult to steer if/when high BURs required. It might be
necessary to slack off weight &Ior reduce pump rate to achieve initial kick-off.
5. Establish circulation. Drill shoe track & 20' of new fonnation.
6. Perfonn LOT as per attached procedure.
· A minimum FG of 0.76 psilft is required for a 10 bbl kick tolerance when drilling to the
planned 7" shoe depth, based on a 9.2 ppg MW and a swab kick. Call Superintendent ifFG
< 0.76 psilft to detennine ifMOC documentation is required.
7. Drill 8 W' hole to 6500' MD I 5754' TVD (±20' for space out purposes) as per attached //
trajectory. Directional planned calls for a 2 degree per 100' build to start at 1,200' MD, along
an azimuth of240 degrees. This build continues to 2,953' MD with a final inclination of35
degrees. The plan has a 0.6 degree per 100' left hand turn starting at 5,000' MD and continuing
to the casing point. The well may try to walk this direction.
· Hole section to be landed in a clean sand, correlated by Geologists with mudlogs.
· Primary & contingency plans for drilling expected lost circulation interval have been
fonnulated. General plan includes; (1) use ofKCL WBM instead ofOBM (less expensive
wI reduced tendency for losses), (2) drilling 8 W' hole with no unnecessary trips and as
quickly as possible, (3) pre-treating KCl mud wI LCM material ±20' above suspected lost
circulation interval at ±171O' TVD, (4) being prepared to drill ahead with fast-mixing LSND
mud if not able to mix fast enough to keep up with losses, assuming loss rate is stabilized or
decreasing, and (5) being prepared to perfonn gunk squeeze as a last resort.
· Mudlogging unit should be manned continuously, fonnation logging should begin..
8. Circulate and condition hole. POH, watching for hole swabbing.
9. Recover wear bushing.
8. RU & Run 7" 26 # L-80 BTC mod casing as follows:

· Thickening time is 3:51 on the LiteCrete.
· Cement differential is predicted to be 2550 psi when the plug bumps.
· Refer to attached Contingency Plan prior to cementing if 3 'l1" tubing becomes stuck.
· Calculate cement volume based on top of cement 1 00' above 7" zx. The slurry above the
packer should increase the probability of passing MIT.
· Verify wiper plug inside cementing head prior to job.
· Displace cement to cement head and drop wiper plug. Break surface lines & circulate clean
to avoid pumping cement on top of wiper plug (to allow perforation immediately above
wiper plug)
· Verify wiper plug has gone downhole with the flag sub (tattletale). Plug must bump to set
ZX packer.
· If plug does not bump, stop pumping after pumping 5 bbls over calculated displacement and
call Drilling Superintendent.
Notes:
· Attached CemCade output includes detailed dynamic calculation of pressure differential
at ZX packer. Calculations indicate it is possible to displace cement to landing collar
with maximum differential pressure at packer ~2500 psi. This provides about 500 psi
safety factor to avoid premature setting of packer (which would stop all cement returns).
ZX pinned to initiate setting with 3000 - 3300 psi.
· Pump pressures should not exceed ~2900 psi (refer to attached CemCade pump
schedule) during displacement, based on pump rate decreasing from 5 BPM to 1 BPM
during final displacement with base oil.
· Contingency plans to set packer (if plug does not bump, failed MIT, etc.) include WO

Mud Program
~v Vallev Producer
Introduction:
The following mud program was prepared for a deviated well accessing the Tyonek gas sands as part of
the Happy Valley development program on the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska. This well will be spudded with a
6% KCI drilling fluid and drilled vertically to the 1,037' MD range. It will be drilled with in a 12 %" hole size
and cemented. The surface casing will be drilled out with the existing mud system. The 8 W' interval will
then be drilled building to 35° angle by section TD at -6,500' MD. Seven inch casing will be run and
cemented at this depth. The 7" will be drilled out and a leak off performed with the water base system.
The well will then be displaced to an INVERMUL system which will be used to drill the production hole. A
6 1/8" hole will be directionally drilled dropping to 10° by TD at 12,411' MD (-10,839' TVD). A 3 Y:z"
production liner will then be run and cemented in place.
Spud the well with a 6% KCI/PHPA mud - 8.6 ppg. The mud weight will then be held in the 8.6 - 8.9 ppg
mud weight range to the surface hole TD unless hole conditions dictate otherwise. Our primary focus for
surface hole drilling operations will be adequate mud weight for well control and sufficient mud viscosity
for efficient hole cleaning. This spud mud is formulated with two mechanisms to provide waste
minimization and effective wellbore stabilization, ionic inhibition (KCI),and polymer encapsulation (PHPA).
This same 6% KCI/PHPA mud will be maintained through the intermediate interval. This mud offers good
LCM responses if losses are encountered. Special emphasis should be placed on maintaining low ECD's
and surge/swab pressures to minimize the potential for lost circulation.
The production interval will begin with an 80/20 OWR (if available) used oil base fluid. The ratio will then
slowly be raised to 90/10 by 10,000' to reduce rheological parameters. CaCI levels will be maintained in
the 29-32% (290,000 - 320,000 ppm WPS) range. The mud weight will be held in the 9.2 -9.6 ppg range
or as required for hole stability.
Primary Drillina Obiectives:
· Zero fluid related HSE incidents
· Achieve well bore stability
· Achieve good hole cleaning considering hole angle, geometry and anticipated ROP rates
· Lost circulation mitigation/control
· Achieve good Zonal Isolation as per plan
· Achieve minimal formation damage in Tyonek sands
· Minimize fluids related NPT
· Minimize drilling wastes
Critical Fluid Issues:
· Eliminating/controlling losses in the 1,700' and 4,100' areas.
· Maintaining a low ECD in the production zone to reduce risk of lost returns.
. Maintaining a stable wellbore through coal seams.
. Reducing drilling wastes with the inhibited drilling fluid system.

No filtrate control is required prior to reaching 1370' MD. Additions BDF-263 may be
required to control screen blinding/bit balling. Seepage losses in this interval can be
controlled with additions of 3-5 ppb BAROFIBRE or by dedicated LCM pills but are unlikely to
occur.
Operations Summary:
This section will drill a 12 ~"hole. Build the 6% KCI fluid in the proper order of addition. Always maintain
a reduced pit volume during spud as losses are not expected in this section. Be prepared for sloughing
gravels in the upper interval; increasing the system rheology with BARAZAN-D/N-Vis will assist in bringing
this material out of the well, as will pumping dedicated high-viscosity sweeps. It is recommended that the
pump rate be increased to the maximum practical rate while the hole is unloading gravel.
HV #6 v2.1
Sweep Formulation: 30 barrels mud (500' annular coverage), add ca. 1.0 ppb BARAZAN D to achieve a tauO > 25.

When penetrating high-clay content sections additions of BDF-263 ester are recommended to reduce the
incidence of bit balling and shaker blinding.
Be prepared to increase the YP if hole cleaning becomes an issue. Run DFG (Drilling Fluid Graphics) to
confirm hole cleaning efficiency based on current rheology, flow rates and cuttings size.
At TD, a Wallnut "flag" (20 bbl pill with 15 ppb of Wallnut M) should be pumped to gauge hole washout
and to calculate the required cement volume. The cement will then be pumped and drilling mud will be
used to bump the plug. Pretreat this chase mud with 1 ppb Bicarb and 0.5 ppb citric acid.
Hazards I Concerns - Surface Interval:
· Preventing lost circulation through ECD management.
· Optimize solids control equipment to maintain density, sand content, and reduce the waste stream.
· Maintain YP between 25 - 40 to optimize hole cleaning and to control ECD.
· Pump high viscosity sweeps to enhance hole-cleaning efforts. Monitor sweep effectiveness.
· Successfully cement casing.

Maintain the 8.8 - 8.9 ppg density or as directed.
Maintain a YP between 13-20 or as needed to achieve adequate hole cleaning.
No filtrate control is required prior to reaching 1500' MD. At this point add Dextrid and/or Pac
L to reduce filtrate to the 8-10 cc/30 min range. Additions of BDF-263 may be required to
control screen blinding/BHA balling. Losses in this interval can be controlled with additions of
1-2 ppb BAROFIBRE and 1-2 ppb of Baracarb 50 or by dedicated LCM pills; see appendix
for LCM decision tree.
Operations Summary:
Drill out the cement/casing with the existing mud system. Bicarb or soda ash and citric acid should be
used to pretreat for any negative effects of the cement. BARAZAN-D/N-Vis should be used to maintain
rheological parameters. Maintain the mud as clean as possible while drilling. Should sweeps be required
a BAROLlFT sweep is recommended (check with the G&I plant to ensure compatability). This sweep will
help clean the hole with no neqative impacts on system mud weiqht or rheoloqy. Daily additions of X-Cide
207 should be made to control bacterial action.
Sweep Formulation: 25 bbl of mud with .25 ppb of Barolift added. Shear thou roughly prior to pumping.
Dextrid and/or PAC L should be used for filtrate control past 1,500'. While drilling, monitor the torque and
drag to determine if liquid lubricant is required. When penetrating high-clay content sections additions of
BDF-263 ester are recommended to reduce the incidence of bit balling and shaker blinding. Maintain the
pH in the 8.5 - 9.0 range with caustic soda.
By -1500' TVD the system rheology may be relaxed as hole conditions allow. This will also lower the
ECD for the loss zone found -1,700' TVD. However, be prepared to increase the YP if hole cleaning
becomes an issue. Run DFG (Drilling Fluid Graphics) to confirm hole cleaning efficiency based on current
rheology, flow rates, angle and cuttings size.
At 1,650' begin stringing in 1-2 ppb of BAROFIBRE and 1-2 ppb of Baracarb 50 (10-15 sx/hr each). This
material will help seal any mini fractures or small vugs as they are drilled. Premixing -60 sx of Baracarb
50 and Barofibre in the "coil" tank and then stringing this mixture in has worked well on HV 3, 4 and 5.
This treatment should be maintained until -1,850'. Also, ensure that the mud weight is maintained as low
as possible through this area. Stress slow pipe movement to the drillers to reduce surge/swab on this
fragile zone. Stage pumps on slowlv after connections and begin rotation prior to pumping (this will break
the gels and reduce the pressure required to break the gels). Should all these efforts fail and losses
occur, please refer to the LCM decision tree appendix. If the losses are still high (above 30 bbl/hr static)
after attempting an LCM pill, STOP running the fluid as a KCI/EZ Mud system. All additions of these
products should be halted and allow the system to slowly break back to an LSND system. Run the fluid
loss and rheology as with the inhibited system. When running the LSND, stop addtions of Baracor and
Barascav D when the chlorides drop below 6,000 ppm's. If any trips are required, consider spotting a 20
bbl, 20 ppb pill across the 1,700' zone. The pill should consist of base mud with 10 ppb Baracarb 50 and
10 ppb STEELSEAL added. This pill would reduce the effects of tripping back in and allow time for the
LCM to "soak" into the zone. STEELSEAL and Baracarb will not dehydrate the mud which will allow for
lower ECD's on the first bottoms up after TIH. Losses were incurred at - 4,100' TVD on HV #5. All pit
monitoring devices should be watched closely as this zone is cut.

100 r m 133 148 162
Baroid recommends a flowrate in the 550-600 gpm range to maximize hole cleaning efficiencies at these
high penetration rates. There is a large drop in efficiency if the rpm drops from 100 to 80. However if
losses occur, the flow rate can be reduced in conjunction with a slower penetration rate which would
reduce the ECD/losses.
Reduce system YP with Therma Thin as required for running casing as allowed (do not jeopardize hole
conditions). Run casing carefully to minimize surge and swab pressures. Reduce the system rheology
once the casing is landed to a YP < 20 ( check with the cementers to see what yp value they have
targeted). Consider spotting the above Steelseal LCM pill prior to running the 7" casing if losses have
been seen in this interval. The plug will again be bumped with mud on the well. If operations allow, the
plug can be bumped with OBM.
Hazards I Concerns - Intermediate Interval:
· Preventing lost circulation in the 1,700' and 4,100' ranges.
· Optimize solids control equipment to maintain density and sand content.
· Maintain YP between 13-20 to optimize hole cleaning and to control ECD.
· Pump high viscosity or Barolift sweeps to enhance hole-cleaning efforts. Monitor sweep effectiveness.
· Successfully land and cement casing.

worked out to bump the plug with the Invermul). Approximately 600 bbls of oil mud will be required for displacement.
Used mud is available so it will be reconditioned at the rig and displaced into the well bore. Prepare the pit system for
the INVERMUL as follows:
· Clean pits, solids control equipment, all lines and pumps.
· Flush all lines with a small volume of oil and discard.
· Disconnect all water lines to the pit area and rig floor.
· Check all steam fittings in pit room for leaks and repair as needed.
Once the shoe has been drilled, displace the well to the ENVIROMUL system designated for this interval
of the well. Pump a 25 bbl spacer ahead of the oil mud as follows:
Spacer Formulation:
· 20 barrels of the OBM treated with GEL TONE to a YP > 30 (app. 6-8 sx). Weight this pill
to 2 ppg over the OBM weight.
· Follow with INVERMUL mud system.
Displacement procedure:
· Monitor pump strokes to obtain correct displacement.
· Maintain maximum pump rates.
· Have the bit on bottom as the oil mud exits the bit.
· Reciprocate the drill string by one joint every 15 minutes
· Rotate the pipe as rapidly as allowed during the actual displacement.
· Do not shut down during the displacement.
· Use an E.S. meter at the flow line to determine when the fluid is water free enough to start
taking the returns back into the system. An ES of 300-500 should be sufficient to indicate
when displacement is complete. A retort should also be run at this time to confirm fluid
quality.
· Clean possum belly and any troughs which were used.
Maintenance:
1. Additions of Geltone V and RM-63 will maintain/modify the system rheology to a YP between 9 and 18
to provide effective hole cleaning while controlling ECD and surge/swab pressures. Run the rheology

to the rheology the hole is experiencing.
Mud Program
This will give a more accurate reflection as
2. OMC 2 and OMC 42 will be available to condition (thin) the mud as required; however, caution should
be used when using these oil mud thinners (particularly the OMC-2) to avoid over-thinning the system.
3. Drill this interval with a tight DURATONE HT / AK-70 filtration mechanism « 8 cc/30 min @ 1500 F to
10,000' then <5cc/30 min @ 2000 to TD). Sarablok and Sarotrol will also be available to improve the
filtration control mechanism.
4. For formation bridging/LCM, graded calcium carbonate (Saracarb(s)), cellulose fiber material
(Sarofibre) and SteelSeal are available.
5. The electrical stability of the mud should be run in the 1000-1100 volt range with INVERMUL and EZ
MUL as the primary and secondary emulsifiers. DRIL TREAT will be available as an effective wetting
agent, if needed.
6. Maintain the water phase salinity between 290,000 - 320,000 mg/I range with sack calcium chloride.
This level of salinity will provide an effective mechanism for good wellbore stabilization.
7. The excess lime content will be maintained in the 3 ppb range to provide an effective reserve alkalinity
source and to improve the emulsion stability of the mud system.
8. The initial oil:water ratio will be 80:20. However if the OIW ratio is higher in the used mud do not adjust
it down. From there, the system will be maintained with base oil allowing the ratio to drift to the 90: 1 0
range by 10,000'. This will help reduce the cost of the original fluid and then help control rheology/ECD's
with the 90: 1 0 ratio in the lower depths of the well.
Suggested Drilling Parameters
Pump rate and drill string rotation should be optimized through the real-time use of the DFG software for
the actual Rap while drilling. The table below highlights the maximum Rap recommendations above
which hole cleaning will become an issue.
Maximum Acceptable ROP in fph at Specified GPM and RPM
GPM-+ 200 250 300
40 rpm 59 73 91
60 rpm 86 113 131
80 rpm 110 150 188
Rap rates above these levels or with no (sliding) or low rpm will require an increased frequency of the
following remedial hole cleaning practices:
. wiper trips
. back reaming
· extended periods of circulation (with maximum pipe rpm, targeting> 80 rpm)
· hole cleaning sweeps (change flow regime of base mud by using fibers, density or rheology
for carrying capacity)
· connection practices - employing extended gpm, rpm and back reaming during the connection

Sweeps
Two types of hole cleaning sweeps can be used:
. Increase the sweep density with SWEEPWATE to 2 ppg over system density. The SWEEPWATE
will increase the sweep carrying capacity yet will be removed at the shakers; this will result in no
density increase from running weighted sweeps.
. To reduce the density/viscosity build up in the system, sweeps can be built by adding 0.25 ppb
BAROLlFT in place of the clay. The fibrous BAROLlFT will be removed at the shakers.
UNOCAL
.
Mud Program
Note: Properly size all sweeps for 300 - 400 ft of annular coverage
Supplement the hole cleaning of the drilling fluid as dictated by hole cleaning indications. Monitor all
sweeps pumped and report on their effectiveness. Maximize drill pipe rotation at high rates on a frequent
basis (particularly during connections) to assist in disturbing any potential cuttings accumulations down-
hole. The objective of the sweep is to change the flow characteristics / carrying capacity that is inherent
with the mud system. Select sweep type accordingly.
Coal Drilling
The following lessons were learned from extensive experience drilling coal seams in Cook Inlet. The hole
stability risks when drilling coal seams are often high, and the fluid design and drilling operations have
been optimized to combine reduced risk with reduced costs. The need for good planning and drilling
practices is also emphasized as a key component for success.
· Keep the drill pipe in tension to prevent a whipping effect which can disturb coal sections.
· Use asphalt-type additives to further stabilize coal seams.
· Increase fluid density as required to control the running coal.
· Emphasize good hole cleaning through hydraulics, Rap and system rheology.
In the event that sloughing coal is encountered, consider spotting a 30 ppb BAROTROL pill across the
coal seam. The pill can be safely "squeezed" into the coal by closing the bag and applying pressure not
to exceed the total annular pressure loss ( based on ECD values using the DFG software). System
density increases can also be employed in increments of 0.5 ppg.
Solids Control Equipment
Maximize the use of all solids control equipment to ensure that the solids content of the system is kept to
a minimum during this interval.
1. Run the shale shakers with as fine a screen size as possible.
· Size shakers screens with coarse mesh initially
· Adjust screen size as solids loading, mud rheology and flowrates allow
· Inspect the shakers frequently, taking time to repair / replace damaged screens
2. Maximize the use of the centrifuge, keeping the fluid as clean as possible.
Running Casing I Cementing Preparation
Monitor hole fill/returns closely while running the liner to insure losses haven't occurred. Refer to Baroid's
DFG+ program if calculated surge/swab values are needed. Condition the mud prior to the cement job.
Displace the cement with straiaht base oil - ensure availabilitv.

Production Hole - Hazards I Concerns:
· Optimize solids control equipment to minimize colloidal solids build up and dilution requirements.
· Maintain flow profile based on PV, YP and tauo flow parameters.
· Pump sweeps as required to enhance hole-cleaning efforts. Monitor the effectiveness of any sweeps
pumped. No sweeps have been needed in this hole section to date.
· Follow the hole cleaning guidelines to assist in drilling parameter selection. Use connections for high
RPM and pump rate support when these parameters are limited during drilling operations.
· Follow the coal drilling guidelines.

General Discussion
A KCI drilling fluid will be used to drill the surface and intermediate hole sections of these wells. This fluid
offers hole stability, waste reduction and many options to address/prevent lost circulation. This fluid will
yield a more gauge hole which reduces the waste (both while drilling and for cement jobs). This gauge
hole, however, can also lead to challenges with swabbing on trips. The production hole will be drilled with
an INVERMUL system. This oil based fluid will offer added hole stability and lubricity for this section with
the added benefit of lowering waste stream costs. Please refer to the mud program for details.

Comments: The mud system from spud will be conditioned and used to drill this section. Maintaining low ECO's is of
primary importance. The zones -1,700' and 4,100 have had losses on previous wells. Treat with Barofibre while

* - Additional mud weight may be required for effective coal or shale stabilization.
Comments: The well will be displaced to an INVERMUL system prior to drilling out the 7" casing if rig ops didn't allow
bumping the plug with cement. This will be used mud from previous wells. Maintaining a clean, low solids content
and raising the OWR to 90/10 prior to 10,000 feet will keep the rheological profile low and reduce chances of lost
circulation, excessive pump pressures, and lay down a thinner, more durable wallcake. Maintain the mud weight as
low as possible but be prepared to weight up if hole conditions warrant. Reduce the 2000 HTHP fluid loss to <5 by
10,000' and maintain to TO.

WAIVER REQUESTS
Unocal respectfully requests waivers to;
(1.) AOGCC regulations 20 AAC 25.035 (C)
(2.) AOGCC regulations 20 AAC 25.050 (C)(1)
WAIVER #1:
Unocal request permission to drill the 12 %" suñace hole to a depth of +/- /
1037' without a diverter. AOGCC regulation 20 AAC 25.035 (h) (2)
stipulates:
(h) IIUpon request f the operator, the commission will, in its
discretion, approve a variance...... (2) from the diverter system
requirements in (C) of this section if the variance provides at least
equally effective means of diverting flow away from the drill rig or if
drilling experience in the near vicinity indicates that a diverter
system is not necessary. 11
Based on our experience drilling 12 %" suñace holes in Happy Valley #1,
#2, #3, #4 & #5, it has been proven conclusively that no shallow gas
hazards exist beneath this pad to a depth of at least 1037' BRT. The 12 %"
suñace hole for Happy Valley #6 will be drilled from the same pad as Happy
Valley Wells #1 through #5 (within +/-225'), and to the same depth as the
previous Happy Valley suñace holes.
The Geologist, Dave Buthman, has reviewed the shallow geology and has
prepared the following summary of the shallow lithology:
From surface to 1037' VD beneath the Happy Valley surface pad, we
anticipate the following lithologies:
0-300': interbedded med to coarse grained sand and coarse gravels
300-1037': interbedded light gray silty claystones, argillaceous
siltstones, gray silty claystones, light gray fine to medium grained
sandstones, with a few thin brown lignitic coals.
We do not anticipate any significant faulting, nor do we expect any
oil or gas to be trapped, as no suitable seals exist within this shallow
section.
For the purpose of basic risk mitigation, Unocal will utilize a gel/native
spud mud which is expected to weigh approximately 9.2 ppg when drilling
at the planned suñace hole TD of 1037', to eliminate the risk of a shallow
water flow.
.
.
.
.
WAIVER #2:
Unocal requests permission to drill the 12 %" suñace hole to +/-1037' /
without surveying until after the 9 5/8" casing is cemented. AOGCC
regulation 20 AAC 25.050 (h) stipulates:
(h) IIUpon application, the commission will, in its discretion, waive all
or part of the directional survey requirements of this section or
approve alternate means for determining the location of a wellbore if
the variance at least equally ensures accurate surveying of the
wellbore to prevent well intersection, to comply with spacing
requirements, and to ensure protection of correlative rights. "
Due to plans to drill the 12 %" suñace hole vertically to 1037', there is no
cost-effective means to survey once each 500' as required in regulation
25.050 (C)(1). Unocal will obtain the required surveys at the first
opportunity after cementing the 9 5/8" casing, before drilling the 8 Yz" hole,
to eliminate the risk of a well-to-well collision and ensure accuracy of the
final BHL.

Maximum Anticipated Suñace Pressure
Calculation & Verification of 7" Casing Design
Happy Valley Well #3
Kenai Peninsula, Alaska
Assumptions: . ~ \¡JGA-
1. Based on offset drilling & well test data, the pore pressure gradient is predicted to be a ~i/ft gradient from
surface to planned total depth at 11,383' VD BRT. Unocal has drilled two wels to 9700' VD on this pad, and has
reviewed data from three other deeper wells within a 2.5 mile radius (NNA #1, HV #31-22 & Deep Creek Unit #1).
2. The M.A.S.P. during drilling operations will be governed by the 7" shoe frac gradient, and is calculated based on a full
column of gas between the 7" shoe and the surface. The shoes for HV #3 will be at the same depth as the shoes in HV
#1, thus the LOT data from HV #1 is useful for relatively accurate kick tolerance & MASP calculations.
3. The MAS.P. during production operations will be the estimated SIBHP minus the gas hydrostatic pressure between
TD & the surface. The 7" intermediate casing must be designed to handle a potential burst load case based on a
shallow leak in the 3 1/2" pipe early in the life of a 11,383' VD gas completion (i.e. before reservoir pressure declines).
M.A.S.P. Calculation During Production Phase:
Max. pore pressure at T.D. =
11500 ' VD x
(
GJ'
=
4980
psi
MAS.P. (tbg leak at surface)
=
4980 psi - (0.096 psi/ft * 11500 ft) =
= ¿aiý psi
MAS.P. Calculation During Drilling Phase:
Est. Frac pressure at 7" shoe
4016 ft. x
0.904 psilft =
= 3630 psi
MAS.P. during drilling =
3630 psi - (.08 psi/ft x 4016 ft.) =
= 3309 psi

VMe = (1/(2°·5))*«(6t-6a)2)+«6a-6/)+«6,-6i))O.5
Where;
6a = «Axial Load [lbs.])/«TT/4)(OD2 - IDma/))) ± «Dg*D*E)/137510)
61 = «PtIDma/)-(Po*OD2))/(OD2-IDma/) + «(p¡-Po)*(OD2)*(IDma/))/«D2)*«OD2)-(IDma/))))
6r = «PtIDma/)-(P o*OD2))/(OD2-IDma/) - «(P,P o)*(OD2)*(IDma/))/«D2)*«OD2)-(IDma/))))
Nomenclature:
VMe = Von Misies equivalent triaxial stress, psi
6a = Axial stress, psi (due to load)
61 = Transverse (hoop) stress, psi
6, = Radial stress, psi
.
.
.
.
OD = Outside Diameter of pipe, inches
IDmax = Maximum inside diameter of pipe, inches (usually OD-1. 75 w.t.)
D = Diameter of interest, inches (worst case = IDmax in this case)
E = Modulus of elasticity (30 x 106 psi)
Dg = Dogleg, °/100' (assumed 0°/100' at surface)
p¡ = Internal Pressure, psi
Po = External Pressure, psi
Solution:
6a = ((Axial Load [lbs.])/((TT/4)(OD2 - 1Dma/))) ± ((Dg*D*E)/137510)
6a = ((81000)/( (TT/4 )(72)-(6.36652»» ± ((0*6.3665*30x1 06)/13751 0)
6a = 12,179.90 psi
6, = ((PtIDma/)-(Po*OD2»/(OD2-IDma/) + (((p¡-Po)*(OD2)*(IDma/»/((D2)*((OD2)-(IDma/)))
6, = ((3876*6.2862)-(0*72»/(72-6.36652) + (((3876-0)*(72)*(6.2862»/((6.2862)*((72)-(6.2862»»
6, = 40,982.58 psi
6r = ((PtIDma/)-(Po*OD2»/(OD2-IDma/) - (((p¡-Po)*(OD2)*(IDma/»/((D2)*((OD2)-(IDma/»»
6r = ((3876*6.3665)-(0*72»/(72-6.36652) - (((3876-0)*(72)*(6.36652»/((6.36652)*((72)-(6.36652))))
6r = -3,876.00 psi
VMe = (1/(2°.5»*(( (6,-6a)2)+( (6a-6i)+( (6r-6J2) )0.5
VMe = (1/(2°·5»*(((40643-12180)2)+((12180-(-3876.00»2)+(((-3876)-40643)2»0.5
VMe = 39,050.47 psi
The calculated maximum theoretical VMe triaxial stress of approximately 39,050 psi, which occurs in the Production
Tubing Leak Load Case, compares favorably with the planned 7" 26 ppf L-80 material, which has a yield strength of
80,000 psi. The overall VMe design factor is 2.05.
The MAS.P. of 3876 psi compares favorably to the burst rating of 7,240 psi. The joint strength of 667 kips
compares favorably to the anticipated slip load of 81 kips.
As an addiitonal back-up, the 9 5/8" 40 ppf N-80 surface casing has a burst rating of 5750 psi and a joint strength of
979 kips.
All wellhead components are rated to 5000 psi working pressure, with the exception of the X-mas tree which is rated
to 6500 psi working pressure.

Leak Off Test (LOT) Procedure
Revised: 04-04-03 by JFB
UNOCAL Alaska
1. Drill out shoe track, clean out rathole, & make 20' of new hole. /
2. Circulate bottoms up on shallow shoes.
Note on report if 50' of new hole was sand or shale.
3. Have mud weight even in & out on all LOT's.
Pump the same mud that is being circulated through the kill & choke lines.
4. Install calibrated gauges & recorders on standpipe & choke manifold.

Cement Volume Calculation
Happy Valley Well #3
Kenai Peninsula, Alaska
Assumptions:
1. The 9 S/8" surface casing must be cemented to surface, to provide maximum; (a.) structural stability, (b.)
long term well control security, and (c.) protection of fresh water sands. Based on experience with HV #1, #2,
& #3, using the KCL-WBM, the volume calculation below assumes 20% excess slurry will be required ensure
cement returns to surface.
2. The 7" intermediate casing cement volume will be based on a cement top at the 9 S/8" shoe. Based on
experience with HV #3, #4 & #S, with the KCL-WBM, the calculation below assumes 20% excess cement is /"
required.
3. Assuming a gas discovery is made, the 31/2" primary cement volume will be calculated based on a
cement top approximately 500 to 1000' above the highest commercial gas sand, or at the 7" shoe, whichever /"
is lower. The following calculation assumes a cement top at 4100' MD, with 10% excess vOlume./However,

Contingencies:
1. Emergency slips for 3 1/2" tubing and 7" intermediate casing will be on location in case either string sticks
with the hanger not landed, i.e. while reciprocating or while running in the hole.
2. If returns are lost during the 9 5/8" surface casing cement job, or if cement is not circulated to surface, it /'
will be necessary to perform a top up job inside the 9 5/8" x 13 3/8" annulus. This would be necessary to I'
obtain a competent pressure seal below the 13 3/8" starter head and to ensure mechanical stability at surface
(i.e. for future HWOU operations, etc.).
3. No contingency is required in the event returns are lost during the 7" intermediate casing cement job,
provided an adequate shoe exists to drill ahead. If the 7" shoe leak-off test yields unacceptable results, and if
this is determined to be due to lost returns while cementing, the 7" shoe can be squeezed and re-tested.
4. Lost returns during the 3 1/2" primary cement job potentially could lead to a loss of reserves, but will not
result in a safety problem due to the depth of the 7" shoe and the presence of the 3 1/2" x 7" packer /~
positioned approximately 100' above the 7" shoe. Should it become necessary, coil tubing could be utilized10
block squeeze any potentially productive intervals not covered by the primary cement.
Note: Should the 31/2" x 7" annulus fail to pressure test, after the cement has had time to setup, it is ~
proposed that the situation should be discussed with the AOGCC and a mutually agreeable course of action
woould be determined prior to perforating for production or for testing. The proposed minimum test pressure
would be 500 psi above the 7" shoe leak-off test pressure, adjusted for differences in fluid density.

Happy Valley Cuttings Disposal Description for Permit to Drill
The drilling muds and cuttings from the Happy Valley #3,4,5, and 6 Well will be ground
and injected into the NNA #1 annulus, into the perforations in the tubing in accordance
with an AOGCC approved test plan for the perforations in the tubing, or into the tubing
and perforations of the NNA #1 Well should that well achieve permitted Class II
injection status during the Happy Valley drilling operations. Permission for the annular
disposal has already been secured from the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation
Commission (AOGCC) and is being currently sought for the tubing-related disposal
options.
The cuttings will be transported to the NNA # 1 pad with the grinding to occur at the
NNA#l pad.
Unocal Alaska does not intend at this time to request authorization under 20 AAC 25.080
for an annular disposal operation in the Happy Valley #3,4,5, or 6 well. In the event
that a problem develops such that Unocal is unable to inject drilling waste into the NNA
#1 well the possibility exists that Unocal may then request authorization for annular
disposal into one or more of the other Happy Valley Wells.

Mud Program
!:!!ID>v Vallev Producers
Introduction:
The following mud program was prepared for a deviated well accessing the Tyonek gas sands as part of
the Happy Valley development program on the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska. This well will be spudded with a
6% KCI drilling fluid and drilled vertically to the 1,037' MD range. It will be drilled with in a 12 W' hole size
and cemented. The surface casing will be drilled out with the existing mud system. The 8 W' interval will
then be drilled building to 41° angle by section TD at -4,517 MD'. Seven inch casing will be run and
cemented at this depth. The 7" will be drilled out and a leak off performed with the water base system.
The well will then be displaced to an INVERMUL system using #4 diesel as the base oil which will be used
to drill the production hole. A 6 1/8" hole will be directionally drilled dropping to 9° by TD at 13,800' MD
(-11,500' TVD). A 3 W' production liner will then be run and cemented in place.
Spud the well with a 6% KCI/PHPA mud - 8.6 ppg. The mud weight will then be held in the 8.6 - 8.9 ppg
mud weight range to the surface hole TD unless hole conditions dictate otherwise. Our primary focus for
surface hole drilling operations will be adequate mud weight for well control and sufficient mud viscosity
for efficient hole cleaning. This spud mud is formulated with two mechanisms to provide waste
minimization and effective well bore stabilization, ionic inhibition (KCI),and polymer encapsulation (PHPA).
This same 6% KCI/PHPA mud will be maintained through the intermediate interval. This mud offers good
LCM responses if losses are encountered. Special emphasis should be placed on maintaining low ECD's
and surge/swab pressures to minimize the potential for lost circulation.
The production interval will begin with an 80/20 OWR (if available) used oil base fluid. The ratio will then
slowly be raised to 90/10 by 10,000' to reduce rheological parameters. CaCI levels will be maintained in
the 28-31 % (280,000 - 310,000 ppm WPS) range. The mud weight will be held in the 9.2 -9.6 ppg range
or as required for hole stability.
Primary Drillina Obiectives:
· Zero fluid related HSE incidents
· Achieve well bore stability
· Achieve good hole cleaning considering hole angle, geometry and anticipated ROP rates
· Lost circulation mitigation/control
· Achieve good Zonal Isolation as per plan
· Achieve minimal formation damage in Tyonek sands
· Minimize fluids related NPT
· Minimize drilling wastes
Critical Fluid Issues:
· Eliminating/controlling losses in the 1,700' area.
· Maintaining a low ECD in the production zone to reduce risk of lost returns.
· Maintaining a stable well bore through coal seams.
· Reducing drilling wastes with the inhibited drilling fluid system.

occur.
Operations Summary:
This section will drill a 12 "X" hole. Build the 6% KCI fluid in the proper order of addition. Always maintain
a reduced pit volume during spud as losses are not expected in this section. Be prepared for sloughing
gravels in the upper interval; increasing the system rheology with BARAZAN-D will assist in bringing this
material out of the well, as will pumping dedicated high-viscosity sweeps. It is recommended that the
pump rate be increased to the maximum practical rate while the hole is unloading gravel.
Sweep Formulation: 30 barrels mud (500' annular coverage), add ca. 1.0 ppb BARAZAN 0 to achieve a tauO > 25.

Be prepared to increase the YP if hole cleaning becomes an issue. Run DFG (Drilling Fluid Graphics) to
confirm hole cleaning efficiency based on current rheology, flow rates and cuttings size.
At TD, a Wallnut "flag" (20 bbl pill with 15 ppb of Wall nut M) should be pumped to gauge hole washout
and to calculate the required cement volume. The cement will then be pumped and drilling mud will be
used to bump the plug. Pretreat this chase mud with 1 ppb Bicarb and 0.5 ppb citric acid.

Maintain the 8.8 - 8.9 ppg density or as directed.

No filtrate control is required prior to reaching 1500' MD. At this point add Dextrid and/or Pac
L to reduce filtrate to the 8-10 cc/30 min range. Additions of BDF-263 may be required to
control screen blinding/BHA balling. Losses in this interval can be controlled with additions of
1-2 ppb BAROFIBRE and 1-2 ppb of Baracarb 50 or by dedicated LCM pills; see appendix
for LCM decision tree.
Operations Summary:
Drill out the cement/casing with the existing mud system. Bicarb or soda ash and citric acid should be
used to pretreat for any negative effects of the cement. BARAZAN-D should be used to maintain
rheological parameters. Maintain the mud as clean as possible while drilling. Should sweeps be required
a BAROLlFT sweep is recommended (check with the G&I plant to ensure compatability). This sweep will
help clean the hole with no neaative impacts on system mud weiaht or rheoloav. Daily additions of X-Cide
207 should be made to control bacterial action.
Sweep Formulation: 25 bbl of mud with .25 ppb of Barolift added. Shear thouroughly prior to pumping.
Dextrid and/or PAC L should be used for filtrate control past 1,500'. While drilling, monitor the torque and
drag to determine if liquid lubricant is required. When penetrating high-clay content sections additions of
BDF-263 ester are recommended to reduce the incidence of bit balling and shaker blinding. Maintain the
pH in the 8.5 - 9.0 range with caustic soda.
By -1500' TVD the system rheology may be relaxed as hole conditions allow. This will also lower the
ECD for the loss zone found -1,700' TVD. However, be prepared to increase the YP if hole cleaning
becomes an issue. Run DFG (Drilling Fluid Graphics) to confirm hole cleaning efficiency based on current
rheology, flow rates, angle and cuttings size.
At 1,650' begin stringing in 1-2 ppb of BAROFIBRE and 1-2 ppb of Baracarb 50 (10-15 sxlhr each). This
material will help seal any mini fractures or small vugs as they are drilled. Premixing -60 sx of Baracarb
50 and Barofibre in the "coil" tank and then stringing this mixture in has worked well on HV 3,4 and 5.
This treatment should be maintained until -1,850'. Also, ensure that the mud weight is maintained as low
as possible through this area. Stress slow pipe movement to the drillers to reduce surge/swab on this
fragile zone. Stage pumps on slowlv after connections and begin rotation prior to pumping (this will break
the gels and reduce the pressure required to break the gels). Should all these efforts fail and losses
occur, please refer to the LCM decision tree appendix. If the losses are still high (above 30 bbl/hr static)
after attempting an LCM pill, STOP running the fluid as a KCI/EZ Mud system. All additions of these
products should be halted and allow the system to slowly break back to an LSND system. Run the fluid
loss and rheology as with the inhibited system. When running the LSND, stop addtions of Baracor and
Barascav D when the chlorides drop below 6,000 ppm's. If any trips are required, consider spotting a 20
bbl, 20 ppb pill across the 1,700' zone. The pill should consist of base mud with 10 ppb Baracarb 50 and
10 ppb STEELSEAL added. This pill would reduce the effects of tripping back in and allow time for the
LCM to "soak" into the zone. STEELSEAL and Baracarb will not dehydrate the mud which will allow for
lower ECD's on the first bottoms up after TIH.

Baroid recommends a flowrate in the 550-600 gpm range to maximize hole cleaning efficiencies at these
high penetration rates. There is a large drop in efficiency if the rpm drops from 100 to 80. However if
losses occur, the flow rate can be reduced in conjunction with a slower penetration rate which would
reduce the ECD/losses.
Reduce system YP with Therma Thin as required for running casing as allowed (do not jeopardize hole
conditions). Run casing carefully to minimize surge and swab pressures. Reduce the system rheology
once the casing is landed to a YP < 20 ( check with the cementers to see what yp value they have
targeted). Consider spotting the above Steelseal LCM pill prior to running the 7" casing if losses have
been seen in this interval. The plug will again be bumped with mud on the well. If operations allow, the
plug can be bumped with OBM.

2. Rheology:
Maintain the density at 9.2 ppg or as directed; use solids control and whole mud dilution.
Increase density as required for hole stability/coal sloughing. Maximize solids control usage.
Maintain a YP between 11 and 20. Pump high viscosity or Barolift sweeps throughout the
interval as needed, particularly prior to POH for casing. Optimized mud rheology and flow
rate will be the primary mechanisms for achieving hole cleaning in this deviated wellbore.
Maximize pipe rotation (ideally ~ 80 RPM).
3. Other issues:
The use of good drilling practices to minimize excessive swab and surge pressure should be
employed to minimize the chances for losses and differential sticking. By 10,000 feet reduce
the HTHP to < 5 cc 30 min with DURATONE HT/AK-70 treatments. Please see the Coal
Drilling recommendations attachment.
Operations Summary:
The water base mud system will be used to drill out the shoe and ca. 20 feet of new hole (unless operations can be
worked out to bump the plug with the Invermul). Approximately 600 bbls of oil mud will be required for displacement.
If used mud is available, it will be reconditioned at the rig and displaced into the well bore. Prepare the pit system for
the INVERMUL as follows:
· Clean pits, solids control equipment, all lines and pumps.
· Flush all lines with a small volume of oil and discard.
· Disconnect all water lines to the pit area and rig floor.
. Check all steam fittings in pit room for leaks and repair as needed.
Once the shoe has been drilled, displace the well to the ENVIROMUL system designated for this interval
of the well. Pump a 25 bbl spacer ahead of the oil mud as follows:
Spacer Formulation:
· 20 barrels of the OBM treated with 8 ppb of EZ MUL-NT and viscosify with GEL TONE to a
YP > 30. Consider weighting this pill to 2 ppg over the OBM weight.
. Follow with INVERMUL mud system.
Displacement procedure:
· Monitor pump strokes to obtain correct displacement.
· Maintain maximum pump rates.
· Have the bit on bottom as the oil mud exits the bit.
· Reciprocate the drill string by one joint every 15 minutes
· Rotate the pipe as rapidly as allowed during the actual displacement.
· Do not shut down during the displacement.
· Use an E.S. meter at the flow line to determine when the fluid is water free enough to start
taking the returns back into the system. An ES of 300-500 should be sufficient to indicate
when displacement is complete. A retort should also be run at this time to confirm fluid
quality.
. Clean possum belly and any troughs which were used.
Maintenance:
1. Additions of Geltone V and RM-63 will maintain/modify the system rheology to a YP between 11 and
20 to provide effective hole cleaning while controlling ECD and surge/swab pressures. Run the rheology

filtration control mechanism.
4. For formation bridging/LCM, graded calcium carbonate (Baracarb(s)), cellulose fiber material
(Barofibre) and SteelSeal are available.
5. The electrical stability of the mud should be run in the 1000-1100 volt range with INVERMUL and EZ
MUL as the primary and secondary emulsifiers. DRIL TREAT will be available as an effective wetting
agent, if needed.
6. Maintain the water phase salinity between 280,000 - 310,000 mg/I range with sack calcium chloride.
This level of salinity will provide an effective mechanism for good wellbore stabilization.
7. The excess lime content will be maintained in the 3 ppb range to provide an effective reserve alkalinity
source and to improve the emulsion stability of the mud system.
8. The initial oil:water ratio will be 80:20. However if the OIW ratio is higher in the used mud do not adjust
it down. From there, the system will be maintained with diesel allowing the ratio to drift to the 90: 1 0 range
by 10,000'. This will help reduce the cost of the original fluid and then help control rheology/ECD's with
the 90: 1 0 ratio in the lower depths of the well.
Suggested Drilling Parameters
Pump rate and drill string rotation should be optimized through the real-time use of the DFG software for
the actual ROP while drilling. The table below highlights the maximum Rap recommendations above
which hole cleaning will become an issue.
Maximum Acceptable ROP in fph at Specified GPM and RPM
GPM~ 200 250 300
40 rpm 59 73 91
60 rpm 86 113 131
80 rpm 110 150 188
Rap rates above these levels or with no (sliding) or low rpm will require an increased frequency of the
following remedial hole cleaning practices:
· wiper trips
· back reaming
· extended periods of circulation (with maximum pipe rpm, targeting> 80 rpm)
· hole cleaning sweeps (change flow regime of base mud by using fibers, density or rheology
for carrying capacity)
· connection practices - employing extended gpm, rpm and back reaming during the connection

Sweeps
Three types of hole cleaning sweeps can be used:
. Run organophilic clay (Geltone) and a low end rheological modifier (RM-63) to increase the
sweep's YP to 35-40.
· Increase the sweep density with SWEEPWATE to 2 ppg over system density. The SWEEPWATE
will increase the sweep carrying capacity yet will be removed at the shakers; this will result in no
density increase from running weighted sweeps.
. To reduce the density/viscosity build up in the system, sweeps can be built by adding 0.25 ppb
BAROLlFT in place of the clay. The fibrous BAROLlFT will be removed at the shakers.
UNOCAL
Mud Program
Note: Properly size all sweeps for 300 - 400 ft of annular coverage
Supplement the hole cleaning of the drilling fluid as dictated by hole cleaning indications. Monitor all
sweeps pumped and report on their effectiveness. Maximize drill pipe rotation at high rates on a frequent
basis (particularly during connections) to assist in disturbing any potential cuttings accumulations down-
hole. The objective of the sweep is to change the flow characteristics / carrying capacity that is inherent
with the mud system. Select sweep type accordingly.
Coal Drilling
The following lessons were learned from extensive experience drilling coal seams in Cook Inlet. The hole
stability risks when drilling coal seams are often high, and the fluid design and drilling operations have
been optimized to combine reduced risk with reduced costs. The need for good planning and drilling
practices is also emphasized as a key component for success.
· Avoid drilling the string into the coal too rapidly, risking pack-offs.
· Circulate and work five-foot intervals of all drilling breaks.
· Avoid excessive annular velocities and the resulting erosive effects in the annulus.
· Avoid excessive surge and swab pressures while tripping across fragile coal beds.
· Keep the drill pipe in tension to prevent a whipping effect which can disturb coal sections.
· Use asphalt-type additives to further stabilize coal seams.
· Increase fluid density as required to control the running coal.
· Emphasize good hole cleaning through hydraulics, Rap and system rheology.
In the event that sloughing coal is encountered, consider spotting a 30 ppb BAROTROL pill across the
coal seam. The pill can be safely "squeezed" into the coal by closing the bag and applying pressure not
to exceed the total annular pressure loss ( based on ECD values using the DFG software). System
density increases can also be employed in increments of 0.5 ppg.
Solids Control Equipment
Maximize the use of all solids control equipment to ensure that the solids content of the system is kept to
a minimum during this interval.
1. Run the shale shakers with as fine a screen size as possible.
· Size shakers screens with coarse mesh initially
· Adjust screen size as solids loading, mud rheology and flowrates allow
· Inspect the shakers frequently, taking time to repair / replace damaged screens
2. Maximize the use of the centrifuge, keeping the fluid as clean as possible.
Running Casing I Cementing Preparation
At TD, condition the system rheology for running production casing (YP < 20 Ib/10Ofe, flat gel strengths).
Run casing slowly at 1-2 mins per stand - based upon swab / sun::¡e calculations from DFG+ - to minimize
inducing lost circulation. Break circulation by staging up pump rates at predetermined points in the well; a

minimum program would be at the shoe and midway to TD. Condition the mud rheology again prior to the
cement job. Displace the cement with base diesel oil - ensure availabilitv.
Production Hole - Hazards I Concerns:
· Optimize solids control equipment to minimize colloidal solids build up and dilution requirements.
· Maintain flow profile based on PV, YP and tauo flow parameters.
· Pump sweeps as required to enhance hole-cleaning efforts. Monitor the effectiveness of any sweeps
pumped.
· Follow the hole cleaning guidelines to assist in drilling parameter selection. Use connections for high
RPM and pump rate support when these parameters are limited during drilling operations. Follow fluid
guidelines for liner running I cementing preparedness.
. Follow the coal drilling guidelines.

General Discussion
A KCI drilling fluid will be used to drill the surface and intermediate hole sections of these wells. This fluid
offers hole stability, waste reduction and many options to address/prevent lost circulation. This fluid will
yield a more gauge hole which reduces the waste (both while drilling and for cement jobs). This gauge
hole, however, can also lead to challenges with swabbing on trips. The production hole will be drilled with
a #4 diesellNVERMUL system. This oil based fluid will offer added hole stability and lubricity for this
section with the added benefit of lowering waste stream costs. Please refer to the mud program for
details.

Comments: This interval will be drilled with a 6% KCI, EZ Mud fluid. Primary focus for this intervel will be adequate
hole cleaning for the large diameter (12 ~") hole and maintaining the drill solids / mud weight.

Comments: The mud system from spud will be conditioned and used to drill this section. Maintaining low ECO's is of
primary importance. The zone -1,700' has had losses on previous wells. Treat with Barofibre while drilling and
emphasize to drillers ECO management. An LCM decision tree is attached should losses develop.

* - Additional mud weight may be required for effective coal or shale stabilization.
Comments: The well will be displaced to a #4 diesellNVERMUL system after drilling out the 7" casing. This will be
used mud from previous wells. Maintaining a clean, low solids content and raising the OWR to 90/10 prior to 10,000
feet will keep the rheological profile low and reduce chances of lost circulation, excessive pump pressures, and lay
down a thinner, more durable wallcake. Maintain the mud weight as low as possible but be prepared to weight up if
hole conditions warrant. Reduce the 2000 HTHP fluid loss to <5 by 10,000' and maintain to TO.

Excellent hole cleaning is acheived with flowrates of 550 gpm. Good hole cleaning is still observed at
450 gpm but the ECD would climb to 9.45 ppg.

Good hole cleaning is seen with 550 gpm and 100 rpm. When the rpm is lowered to 80, a severe drop
in hole cleaning efficiency develops. This also causes the ECD to rise to 10 ppg due to the dirty hole.

If the pipe can be rotated at 80 rpm, it should be. This rpm versus 60 rpm improves hole cleaning and
ECD drastically. Dropping the flow rate to 250 gpm does not effect hole cleaning as much as reducing
the rpm to 60.

PROCEDURES AND GENERAL DISCUSSION
Epoch supplied a full computerized Rigwatch system (which included measurements block height, drill
rate, pit volumes, pump rates, pump pressure, flowline, retum flow, hook load, torque, and rotary speed)
for all operations. Display monitors for the company man and mud engineer, and touch-screen (Azonix)
displays for the driller and pit watcher provided graphics of the infonnation.
Hydrogen flame ionization (FID) Total Gas and (FID) Gas Chromatograph instruments detected and
analyzed fonnation gases. Mud gas was continuously generated by an optimally positioned Quantitative
Gas Measurement (QGMTN, Texaco patent) electrically driven gas trap, and drawn to the detectors by
vacuum pump. The gas system was tested and calibrated on a regular basis.
Unocal Alaska Resources, Inc. spudded Happy Valley #6 I on AprilS, 2004 with Kuukpik Rig #5. Epoch
commenced DML TN logging (gas monitoring only) on April 7, 2004 at the base of the 16" conductor pipe.
12~" Surface hole was drilled with water base mud from 67' to 1075' and completed on April 8,2004.
Mud weight was maintained at 8.9ppg.
Cuttings collection and analysis commenced when the 8~" intennediate hole section began on April 1 0,
2004. Cuttings samples were caught at 30' intervals, and at smaller intervals if the drill rate allowed.
Attention was paid to optimum sampling during all gas shows, and especially below the TIO Marker.
Intennediate hole section was drilled with water base mud from 1075' to 5760'. Drilling was conducted
with caution due to a low leak off test of 13.1 EMWat 5780'. A significant amount of sliding was
necessary to build and maintain a target tangent angle of approximately 35°. Rerun bit #2RR was pulled
at 5126' when it failed to slide. A new bit #3 was needed to finish the intennediate hole. Mud weight was
gradually increased from 9.0ppg to to 9.3ppg. Intennediate hole was completed on April 14,2004.
After swapping from water base mud to oil base mud, the 6%" deep hole section commenced on April 17,
2004 and was drilled with a single bit from 5760' to the Happy Valley #6 Total Depth of 11798' (10400'
TVD), reached on April 17 , 2004. A Fonnation Integrity Test to 18.94 EMW was perfonned at 5782'.
Continued sliding was required to maintain the approximate 35° tangent angle to 9000', and then to drop
angle to near vertical (10.12°) at Total Depth. The mud weight of 9.0ppg at the 7" shoe was increased in
steps to 9.35ppg and again to 9.45 at Total Depth, in response to connection and swab gases.
Downhole electric wireline data was obtained by a Reeves Wireline Service Quad-Combo Assembly. 3~"
production tubing was run in the hole on 5" drill pipe, the hanger set, and the tubing string cemented on
April 24. Epoch was given its release to rig down after cementing.

GEOLOGICAL DISCUSSION
HAPPY VALLEY #6
The primary objectives of the Happy Valley #6 were quality Tyonek Formation gas sands. Secondary
objectives were more marginal Tyonek zones and some of the lower Beluga Formation sands. All
objectives are in the Tertiary Kenai Group.
From 1075' to 5760', intermediate hole, was drilled Sterling to Lower Beluga Formations. The interval
averaged 19 units of gas, with a maximum of 159 units in a coal. The highest gas measured from
sandstone was 83 units at 5519', and 80 units at 2550'.
The 61/8" hole from 5760' to total depth, at 11798', included Lower Beluga and Tyonek Formations. Gas
averaged 79 units, with a maximum of 616 units in a coal. Drill gas from a number of coals exceeded 100
units up to 616 units. The maximum drill gas from sandstone was 261 units at 6996'. The most significant
gas was 1145 units of swab gas after pulling off bottom at 9287' when drilling sandstone. The maximum
drill gas for that sandstone was 130 units at 9254'.

gray secondary hues; note that when the supporting matrix of most of the sandstone is richer in volcanic
ash the lighter or ''whiter'' it appears; very fine lower to medium upper; most is in fine lower to medium
lower range; some very fine upper to very fine lower sandstone is fairty clean, calcareous and grading to
siltstone, but most of the very fine lower grains present are glass shards that are included in the ash, and
thus represent a part of the supporting matrix, rather than a clastic that has been winnowed out by
water/wind and transported and redeposited; moderately well sorted overall, especially at the fine-
medium boundary; mostly subangular to subrounded, and subdsicoidal to subspherical, but there are

claystone or very sandy "ashstone"; some the matrix supported sandstone also has some calcite
cementation that is near grain to grain and bordertine grain supported, but most of the calcite appears to
be within the clay and is in soft "powdery" form; some of the volcanic ash supported sandstone has a
matrix that is largely devitrified and locally can be very calcareous after secondary calcite has replaced
the glass during its conversion to clay; grain supported sandstone is generally in spotty amounts,
apparently common in only thin zones and most often supported by mix of calcite cementation and
intergrain clay/ash and occasionally also silica; there is a trace of silica supported only sandstone.

Coal/Carbonaceous Shale/Carbonaceous Claystone (7700'-8600') = black to brownish black to
grayish black to very dusky brown; vitreous coal is often a "shiny" black; carbonaceous shale occasionally
has very dusky red or dark yellowish brown secondary hues; some coals have alternating black and
grayish black gradeltexture laminations; brittle to very firm to firm; most coal at start of this interval was
fragile, but became increasingly tough; after 8200' most of the vitreous looking coal is moderately hard
and tough; the fragile coal often fragmented into small (2-4mm) pieces, and some of the coal was even
finer, breaking to "coffee ground" size; abundant tuffaceous claystone in "coaly" zones is pale brown to
dark brown ash-derived clay with a major contribution of organic/carbonaceous sediment; some of the
carbonaceous tuffaceous claystone forms the support matrix for local sandstone; carbonaceous shale
has a clayey to dense silty to several dense matte textures and dull earthy luster; coal has smooth to
dense matte texture,dull to resinous or vitreous lustre, irregular subplaty to platy to subsplintery to hackly
fracture, rare conchoidal or birdeye fracture; and locally has discernible outgassing; the most resinous of
the coal often has a very slight "oilyness" or "waxiness", and water drops will bead on its surface; all the
carbon-rich rocks appear to be thinly interbedded with each other and adjacent rocks.
Volcanic AshNery Sandy Volcanic AshNery Ashy Sandstone (8000'-8800') = light gray with many
pale variations of brown hues; ranges from very light gray to medium light gray, and usually there is a
pale yellowish gray or very light bownish gray secondary hue; can be pale brown color when associated
with highly carbonaceous zones; some of the "cleanest" less reworked ash is white; soft to firm and brittle;
most is slighty to moderately firm and slight to moderately brittle; ashy to clayey to various soft matte
textures; some devitrified ash appears smooth; earthy to microsparkly to dull (chalky) luster;
"microsparkles" produced by abundant glass microshards; when devitrified the ash has a very distinctive
subwaxy to waxy lustre; the volcanic ash is very closely gradational to tuffaceous clay, and the only real
separation is determined by the abundance and very even distribution of glass shards without being
concentrated in laminar zones, the general homogeneity of the color, and the rare examples of secondary
pseudotextures that mimic the original vitroclastic clastic, despite being reworked in a fluvial environment;
volcanic ash and tuffaceous claystone are the pervasive matrix support of the sandstone in this interval,
and locally the matrix volume will exceed 50%, changing the rock to a sand claystone or "ashstone";
much of this interval could be considered a single rock type with sand and ash fractions ranging back and
forth in the 30% to 70% range, a very ashy sandy mudstone; note that some of the larger shards were

secondary hues; note that when the supporting matrix of abundant sandstone is very rich in volcanic ash
it can be nearly white in appearance; very fine lower to medium upper; dominant fine lower to medium
lower range; a trace of very fine upper to very fine lower sandstone is fairly clean, calcareous and grading

composition and general characteristics as the major interval described immediately above; the matrix
ash and tuffaceous clay have ashy to clayey to various soft matte textures if unaltered, and smooth to
dense matte texture with distinctive subwaxy to waxy lustre if devitrified; because the matrix volume is
large, this very ashy sandstone often displays laminar developement in much the manner as a
