Milne Point Unit J-01 A, PTD 1991110. ) Other Order 117 March 21, 2017 DECISION AND ORDER On November 16, 2015, the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) issued a Notice of Proposed Enforcement Action (Notice) to Hilcorp Alaska, LLC (Hilcorp) regarding the Milne Point Unit well J-OIA (MPU J-OIA). The Notice was based upon Hilcorp's performance of well operations on MPU J-OIA by failing to obtain approval to change an approved program. The Notice proposed specific corrective actions and a $75,000 civil penalty under AS 31.05.150(a). Hilcorp requested an informal review. That review was held February 18, 2016. Summary of Proposed Enforcement Action: A review of well workovers performed at MPU by Hilcorp-operated rigs revealed three wells that had fill cleanout operations using nitrogen without AOGCC approval: MPU J -O l A, MPU J -08A, and MPU J -09A, a violation of 20 AAC 25.507. After gathering information and further discussions with Hilcorp, AOGCC proposed a $75,000 civil penalty. Informal Review: On January 29, 2016 Hilcorp submitted a brief and appended documentation in advance of the Informal Review addressing, among other matters, the use of nitrogen a MPU J -01A.' Hilcorp neither disputed that it did not list nitrogen on its Sundry request nor that it used nitrogen during AOGCC agreed with Hilcorp's request that all four notices of proposed enforcement would be consolidated for purposes of an Informal Review. The four notices are Docket OTH 15-025 (MPU J -08A: Failure to Notify of Changes to an Approved Permit; Failure to Maintain a Safe Work Environment), Docket OTH 15-029 (MPU I-03: Failure to Notify of Use of Blowout Prevention Equipment; Failure to Test Used Blowout Prevention Equipment), Docket OTH 15-030 (MPU J-01 A: Failure to Notify of Changes to an Approved Permit), and Docket OTH 15-031 (MPU J -09A: Failure to Notify of Changes to an Approved Permit). Other Order 117 March 21, 2017 Page 2 of 6 the cleanout. Instead, Hilcorp blamed AOGCC's lack of "comment" afterwards for its belief that listing nitrogen was not required. During the February 18, 2016 Informal Review, Hilcorp did not discuss specifics relating to the violation at MPU J-OIA. Discussion: Hilcorp commenced workover operations with the ASRI rig at MPU J -01A on August 6, 2015. Sundry approval 315-459 dated July 30, 2015 authorized Hilcorp to pull a failed electric submersible pump (ESP) and rerun a new ESP completion. Because the request sought only approval to use lease water for well cleanout, the approval did not authorize the use of nitrogen for well cleanout. As part of the workover procedure, a fill cleanout step was included prior to running the new ESP and 2 -7/8 -inch production tubing. Daily reports for August 7-10, 2015 show the following well work was completed in preparation for the fill cleanout: ESP completion had been removed, a tapered fill cleanout string was run in the well to 4409 feet measured depth, and equipment was rigged up to perform the fill cleanout. The fill cleanout pumping operations began August 10, 2015. Hilcorp used lease water for circulating as part of the fill cleanout operation, then used nitrogen for the well cleanout prior to running the new ESP completion. In its brief, Hilcorp conceded "that certain operational conduct described in the Notices was not in accordance with its own or its contractors well-established policies or procedures." 2 Nonetheless, Hilcorp claimed that because AOGCC regulations were silent on the topic of fluids to be used in the course of a well workover that there was no requirement to submit information detailing the fluids to be used for well clean out. Hilcorp's claims are contradicted by its own actions. In the first of its four initial workovers at MPU, Hilcorp sought and obtained approval of a contingency plan for the use of nitrogen during well clean out.' 2 Hilcorp Alaska, LLC's Submission to the AOGCC for Informal Review of AOGCC Docket Nos. OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31; Submitted January 29, 2016 (30 pages, plus 23 multi -page Exhibits). 3 MPU 1-15, PTD 2021520, Sundry Approval 315-158 Other Order 117 March 21, 2017 Page 3 of 5 A proposed program must include detail sufficient to enable the AOGCC to ensure the proper planning and safe conduct of activities on the well by rig and contractor personnel. Because this inquiry is undertaken on a well by well basis, the lack of AOGCC objection to one request does not provide blanket approval for that specific operation in subsequent well workovers. No operator may undertake a change to an approved program or activity without AOGCC approval. Any application to change an approved program must state the well's current condition and describe the proposed change. In its request for approval of Sundry 315-459, Hilcorp represented to AOGCC that the cleanout would use lease water. As a result, nitrogen was not authorized for use during a fill cleanout of MPU J-0 IA. After the Notice was issued, Hilcorp claimed that the use of nitrogen for a fill cleanout was a contingent plan executed only if well conditions warrant.' A contingent plan constitutes a change to an approved permit requiring AOGCC approval prior to implementation. The point of requiring preapproval for this operation is to allow review of the entire proposed program, not just one of the alternatives from which Hilcorp may pick. Hilcorp's listing of nitrogen on an earlier Sundry request, along with its listing of lease water on its request here, belie Hilcorp's claims that it did not believe the Sundry required the entire program to be set forth. Findings and Conclusions: Prior to this violation, AOGCC issued several enforcement actions against Hilcorp, including imposition of a civil penalty. AOGCC also met several times with Hilcorp's Alaska managers regarding concerns about regulatory compliance, including a meeting with Hilcorp operations personnel at its Kenai field office to assist with its understanding of AOGCC expectations of regulatory compliance.5 These discussions were undertaken to draw attention to and help to stem Hilcorp's relatively high frequency of noncompliant activities. These actions do not appear to have had any significant impact on Hilcorp's conduct. 4 Hilcorp correspondence dated October 9, 2015 (refer to AOGCC Docket 15-025) 5 Meeting requested and arranged by Hilcorp; held November 11, 2013 Other Order 117 March 21, 2017 Page 4 of 6 The AOGCC finds that Hilcorp has violated 20 AAC 25.507 in the conduct of workover operations at MPU J-01 A by failing to obtain prior approval for a plan change. The AOGCC has considered the factors in AS 31.05.150(g) in its determination of penalties for the MPU J -01A violation. Hilcorp has demonstrated neither mitigating factors relative to this incident nor that AOGCC missed information in reviewing the enforcement action. The potential severity of the outcome of Hilcorp's actions, Hilcorp's ongoing history of performing work outside of approved permits or management -of -change protocols, its history of compliance issues and the need to deter are significant factors in the AOGCC's analysis.6 However, during the past twelve months, Hilcorp has taken initiatives that have improved their overall regulatory compliance. Also, after the initial investigation of this incident, the AOGCC stopped work on all four Hilcorp workover rigs in Alaska from 10/1/15 to 10/26/15, until Hilcorp could demonstrate compliance with AOGCC's conditions for restarting well work. The AOGCC recognizes that this shutdown of well workover operations had a significant financial impact to Hilcorp. Now Therefore It Is Ordered That: A civil penalty in the amount of $80,000 is imposed for violating 20 AAC 25.507, for changing the work procedure in Sundry approval 315-459 by performing the cleanout of MPU J -01A using an unapproved contingent plan (nitrogen). Done at Anchorage, Alaska and dated March 21, 2017. r Catq P. Foerster Chair, Commissioner Daniel T. Seamoun , Jr. Commissioner Hollis S. French Commissioner 6 AS 31.05.150(g) requires AOGCC to consider nine criteria in setting the amount of a civil penalty. Other Order 117 March 21, 2017 Page 5 of 6 RECONSIDERATION AND APPEAL NOTICE As provided in AS 31.05.080(a), within 20 days after written notice of the entry of this order or decision, or such further time as the AOGCC grants for good cause shown, a person affected by it may file with the AOGCC an application for reconsideration of the matter determined by it. If the notice was mailed, then the period of time shall be 23 days. An application for reconsideration must set out the respect in which the order or decision is believed to be erroneous. The AOGCC shall grant or refuse the application for reconsideration in whole or in part within 10 days after it is filed. Failure to act on it within 10 -days is a denial of reconsideration. If the AOGCC denies reconsideration, upon denial, this order or decision and the denial of reconsideration are FINAL and may be appealed to superior court. The appeal MUST be filed within 33 days after the date on which the AOGCC mails, OR 30 days if the AOGCC otherwise distributes, the order or decision denying reconsideration, UNLESS the denial is by inaction, in which case the appeal MUST be filed within 40 days after the date on which the application for reconsideration was filed. If the AOGCC grants an application for reconsideration, this order or decision does not become final. Rather, the order or decision on reconsideration will be the FINAL order or decision of the AOGCC, and it may be appealed to superior court. That appeal MUST be filed within 33 days after the date on which the AOGCC mails, OR 30 days if the AOGCC otherwise distributes, the order or decision on reconsideration. In computing a period of time above, the date of the event or default after which the designated period begins to run is not included in the period; the last day of the period is included, unless it falls on a weekend or state holiday, in which event the period runs until 5:00 p.m. on the next day that does not fall on a weekend or state holiday.

STATE OF ALASKA ALASKA OIL AND GAS CONSERVATION COMMISSION 333 West Seventh Avenue Anchorage, Alaska 99501 Re: Failure to Notify of Changes to an Approved ) Docket Number: OTH-15-031 Permit. Milne Point Unit J-0IA, PTD 1991110. ) Other Order 117 March 21, 2017 DECISION AND ORDER On November 16, 2015, the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) issued a Notice of Proposed Enforcement Action (Notice) to Hilcorp Alaska, LLC (Hilcorp) regarding the Milne Point Unit well J -01A (MPU J -01A). The Notice was based upon Hilcorp's performance of well operations on MPU J-01 A by failing to obtain approval to change an approved program. The Notice proposed specific corrective actions and a $75,000 civil penalty under AS 31.05.150(a). Hilcorp requested an informal review. That review was held February 18, 2016. Summary of Promsed Enforcement Action: A review of well workovers performed at MPU by Hilcorp-operated rigs revealed three wells that had fill cleanout operations using nitrogen without AOGCC approval: MPU J -01A, MPU J -08A, and MPU J -09A, a violation of 20 AAC 25.507. After gathering information and further discussions with Hilcorp, AOGCC proposed a $75,000 civil penalty. Informal Review: On January 29, 2016 Hilcorp submitted a brief and appended documentation in advance of the Informal Review addressing, among other matters, the use of nitrogen a MPU J -01A.' Hilcorp neither disputed that it did not list nitrogen on its Sundry request nor that it used nitrogen during ' AOGCC agreed with Hilcorp's request that all four notices of proposed enforcement would be consolidated for purposes of an Informal Review. The four notices are Docket OTH 15-025 (MPU J -08A: Failure to Notify of Changes to an Approved Permit; Failure to Maintain a Safe Work Environment), Docket OTH 15-029 (MPU I-03: Failure to Notify of Use of Blowout Prevention Equipment; Failure to Test Used Blowout Prevention Equipment), Docket OTH 15-030 (MPU J -01A: Failure to Notify of Changes to an Approved Permit), and Docket OTH 15-031 (MPU J -09A: Failure to Notify of Changes to an Approved Permit). Other Order 117 March 21, 2017 Page 2 of 5 the cleanout. Instead, Hilcorp blamed AOGCC's lack of "comment" afterwards for its belief that listing nitrogen was not required. During the February 18, 2016 Informal Review, Hilcorp did not discuss specifics relating to the violation at MPU J -O IA. Discussion: Hilcorp commenced workover operations with the ASRI rig at MPU J-01 A on August 6, 2015. Sundry approval 315-459 dated July 30, 2015 authorized Hilcorp to pull a failed electric submersible pump (ESP) and rerun a new ESP completion. Because the request sought only approval to use lease water for well cleanout, the approval did not authorize the use of nitrogen for well cleanout. As part of the workover procedure, a fill cleanout step was included prior to running the new ESP and 2 -7/8 -inch production tubing. Daily reports for August 7-10, 2015 show the following well work was completed in preparation for the fill cleanout: ESP completion had been removed, a tapered fill cleanout string was run in the well to 4409 feet measured depth, and equipment was rigged up to perform the fill cleanout. The fill cleanout pumping operations began August 10, 2015. Hilcorp used lease water for circulating as part of the fill cleanout operation, then used nitrogen for the well cleanout prior to running the new ESP completion. In its brief, Hilcorp conceded "that certain operational conduct described in the Notices was not in accordance with its own or its contractors well-established policies or procedures." 2 Nonetheless, Hilcorp claimed that because AOGCC regulations were silent on the topic of fluids to be used in the course of a well workover that there was no requirement to submit information detailing the fluids to be used for well clean out. Hilcorp's claims are contradicted by its own actions. In the first of its four initial workovers at MPU, Hilcorp sought and obtained approval of a contingency plan for the use of nitrogen during well clean out.' 2 Hilcorp Alaska, LLC's Submission to the AOGCC for Informal Review of AOGCC Docket Nos. OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31; Submitted January 29, 2016 (30 pages, plus 23 multi -page Exhibits). 3 MPU I-15, PTD 2021520, Sundry Approval 315-158 Other Order 117 March 21, 2017 Page 3 of 5 A proposed program must include detail sufficient to enable the AOGCC to ensure the proper planning and safe conduct of activities on the well by rig and contractor personnel. Because this inquiry is undertaken on a well by well basis, the lack of AOGCC objection to one request does not provide blanket approval for that specific operation in subsequent well workovers No operator may undertake a change to an approved program or activity without AOGCC approval. Any application to change an approved program must state the well's current condition and describe the proposed change. In its request for approval of Sundry 315-459, Hilcorp represented to AOGCC that the cleanout would use lease water. As a result, nitrogen was not authorized for use during a fill cleanout of MPU J-01 A. After the Notice was issued, Hilcorp claimed that the use of nitrogen for a fill cleanout was a contingent plan executed only if well conditions warrant.4 A contingent plan constitutes a change to an approved permit requiring AOGCC approval prior to implementation. The point of requiring preapproval for this operation is to allow review of the entire proposed program, not just one of the alternatives from which Hilcorp may pick. Hilcorp's listing of nitrogen on an earlier Sundry request, along with its listing of lease water on its request here, belie Hilcorp's claims that it did not believe the Sundry required the entire program to be set forth. Findings and Conclusions: Prior to this violation, AOGCC issued several enforcement actions against Hilcorp, including imposition of a civil penalty. AOGCC also met several times with Hilcorp's Alaska managers regarding concerns about regulatory compliance, including a meeting with Hilcorp operations personnel at its Kenai field office to assist with its understanding of AOGCC expectations of regulatory compliance.5 These discussions were undertaken to draw attention to and help to stem Hilcorp's relatively high frequency of noncompliant activities. These actions do not appear to have had any significant impact on Hilcorp's conduct. ' Hilcorp correspondence dated October 9, 2015 (refer to AOGCC Docket 15-025) s Meeting requested and arranged by Hilcorp; held November 11, 2013 Other Order 117 March 21, 2017 Page 4 of 5 The AOGCC finds that Hilcorp has violated 20 AAC 25.507 in the conduct of workover operations at MPU J-01 A by failing to obtain prior approval for a plan change. The AOGCC has considered the factors in AS 31.05.150(g) in its determination of penalties for the MPU J -01A violation. Hilcorp has demonstrated neither mitigating factors relative to this incident nor that AOGCC missed information in reviewing the enforcement action. The potential severity of the outcome of Hilcorp's actions, Hilcorp's ongoing history of performing work outside of approved permits or management -of -change protocols, its history of compliance issues and the need to deter are significant factors in the AOGCC's analysis.6 However, during the past twelve months, Hilcorp has taken initiatives that have improved their overall regulatory compliance. Also, after the initial investigation of this incident, the AOGCC stopped work on all four Hilcorp workover rigs in Alaska from 10/1/15 to 10/26/15, until Hilcorp could demonstrate compliance with AOGCC's conditions for restarting well work. The AOGCC recognizes that this shutdown of well workover operations had a significant financial impact to Hilcorp. Now Therefore It Is Ordered That: A civil penalty in the amount of $80,000 is imposed for violating 20 AAC 25.507, for changing the work procedure in Sundry approval 315-459 by performing the cleanout of MPU J -01A using an unapproved contingent plan (nitrogen).

Seamount, Jr Commissioner //signature on file// Hollis S. French Commissioner 6 AS 31.05.150(g) requires AOGCC to consider nine criteria in setting the amount of a civil penalty. Other Order 117 March 21, 2017 Page 5 of 5 RECONSIDERATION AND APPEAL As provided in AS 31.05.080(a), within 20 days after written notice of the entry of this order or decision, or such further time as the AOGCC grants for good cause shown, a person affected by it may file with the AOGCC an application for reconsideration of the matter determined by it. If the notice was mailed, then the period of time shall be 23 days. An application for reconsideration must set out the respect in which the order or decision is believed to be erroneous. The AOGCC shall grant or refuse the application for reconsideration in whole or in part within 10 days after it is filed. Failure to act on it within 10 -days is a denial of reconsideration. If the AOGCC denies reconsideration, upon denial, this order or decision and the denial of reconsideration are FINAL and may be appealed to superior court. The appeal MUST be filed within 33 days after the date on which the AOGCC mails, OR 30 days if the AOGCC otherwise distributes, the order or decision denying reconsideration, UNLESS the denial is by inaction, in which case the appeal MUST be filed within 40 days after the date on which the application for reconsideration was filed. If the AOGCC grants an application for reconsideration, this order or decision does not become final. Rather, the order or decision on reconsideration will be the FINAL order or decision of the AOGCC, and it may be appealed to superior court. That appeal MUST be filed within 33 days after the date on which the AOGCC mails, OR 30 days if the AOGCC otherwise distributes, the order or decision on reconsideration. In computing a period of time above, the date of the event or default after which the designated period begins to run is not included in the period; the last day of the period is included, unless it falls on a weekend or state holiday, in which event the period runs until 5:00 p.m. on the next day that does not fall on a weekend or state holiday.

Let me know if there are other questions you asked that I did not capture and answer below. Q: Were any gauges installed on the valves on the well head for J -08A? A: Hilcorp's previously submitted drawings depict a valve on the IA and OA. A pressure gauge was on the OA valve monitoring pressure between the surface casing and production casing. The valve on the IA was removed for the RWO activitites. It is correctly shown in the drawings submitted on 23 Oct (shown below). n� M.

Standpipe ASR RIG SO P.M, Linc C22 i JK1 [Y NCRNO LineCAgke Line vaMc Q: When was N2 procedure developed? A: The Hilcorp N2 procedure was initially developed on 23 March 2015 for the 1-15 well. Q: Is the stripping head on the top of the ASR BOP tested as part of the BOP procedure? A: No, it is not tested as it is not part of the BOP well control system. Q: Was the work string (pipe) being moved during the N2 cleanout on J -08A? A: No, the work string was static and was not moved during the pumping of the N2 cleanout jobs. Q: What clean out depths were achieved with the N2 jobs? A: We washed down as deep as our open-ended mule shoe would allow and then held static while the N2 was pumped. Depths varied on all jobs. Q: Was annular BOP or stripping head used for the J -08A N2 pumping? A: Annular BOP. Q: Provide calibration of portable hand held gas detector utilized on ASR for J -08A and F-96. A: All portable gas detectors at Milne are Ventis MX -4 portable detectors. Hilcorp has a contract with Industrial Scientific "I -net" where the detectors are automatically calibrated every month via a docking/charging station. If an individual device is not docked over 7 days or is not calibrated in the course of the month, an alert is trigger. Milne did not receive any alerts in 2015. Note that one detector failed the calibration on 1 Aug but was recalibrated and passed same day. Gas detectors are portable and interchangeable within the field and we do not keep a record of which one is used in specific locations on any given day. Therefore, I can't state which device was utilized on J -08A or F-96. However, attached are the calibrations of all devices in the field over the month of Aug and Sept showing that all received a calibration within that month. We have 14-20 in the field on any given day (number fluctuates as we have some returned for maint to Industrial Scientific). Also attached is the iNet brochure detailing the detector program.

INTRODUCTION On November 12 and 16, 2015, the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission ("AOGCC") issued four Notices of Proposed Enforcement Action ("the Notices") to Hilcorp Alaska, LLC ("Hilcorp"). Three of these Notices (Dockets OTH-15-025, OTH-15-030, and OTH-15-031) involve the use of nitrogen gas in well cleanout operations at the Milne Point Unit on Alaska's North Slope. The fourth Notice (OTH-15-029) concerns a different alleged failure but it is cited in each of the other Notices as justification for enhancing the penalties assessed against Hilcorp. Accordingly, Hilcorp requested, and the AOGCC agreed, that all four Notices would be consolidated for purposes of an Informal Review, currently scheduled for February 18, 2015. Hilcorp concedes that certain operational conduct described in the Notices was not in accordance with its own or its contractors' well-established policies and procedures. Where this is true, Hilcorp has candidly acknowledged these deficiencies, and has taken appropriate remedial action to prevent such occurrences in the future. However, Hilcorp also respectfully believes that the proposed penalties are impermissively excessive, based on an incomplete understanding of the factual record, or arise from regulatory provisions that are ambiguous. Hilcorp also is concerned that in certain respects AOGCC is attempting to enforce its regulation in a manner beyond its statutory mandate, but within the statutory authority of other regulatory agencies. Of greatest concern to Hilcorp are comments in the Notices that are extreme and, to the extent based on incorrect assumptions of fact, unjustified and unfair. Hilcorp's highest priority is, and will continue to be, to conduct its operations in a safe and compliant manner, and it has worked diligently with AOGCC to understand and address its concerns. As demonstrated in this 1 On Milne Point well I-03 Commission alleges, incorrectly as demonstrated herein, that Hilcorp failed to notify the Commission regarding the use of BOPE upon isolation of a casing leak, and also failed to retest the BOPE after this operation. 2 E.g., In the Notice for Dkt. OTH-15-029, which concerns the alleged failure to notify the Commission regarding the use of BOPE on well 1-03 and the concomitant failure to re -test the BOPE, the Commission writes, "The disregard for regulatory compliance is endemic to Hilcorp's approach to its Alaska operation and virtually assured the occurrence of this violation." As discussed infra at Section IIE, the alleged violation is not factually based, and therefore the extreme conclusion is unwarranted. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 2 of 30 brief, Hilcorp has taken numerous corrective actions in light of the J -08A incident. Hilcorp invites an open discussion of these issues in the informal review, and hopes one outcome will be a commitment to a greater degree of open communication between Hilcorp and AOGCC in the future. II. STATEMENT OF FACTS The most serious penalties proposed by AOGCC in the Notices are contained in Dkt. OTH-15-25, and concern an incident which occurred during workover operations at Milne Point well J -08A on September 25, 2015. The rig used during this operation was Automated Service Rig 1 (ASRI). ASR1 was constructed by Rangeland Drilling Automation, Inc. in the spring of 2015, and was put into service on July 19, 2015. The rig is operated by Integrated Well Services (IWS) personnel working in two shifts, from 6:00 am to 6:00 pm and 6:00 pm to 6:00 am. These crews were directly supervised by two IWS toolpushers, whose shifts were noon -to -midnight and midnight to noon. At the time of this incident, Hilcorp was represented on the worksite by a very experienced wellsite leader, who provided overall operational direction and supervision, and who was onsite 24 hours per day. A. Hilcorp Contractor Safety Expectations and Practices. As part of its own comprehensive safety program,3 Hilcorp requires by contract that all of its contractors, including IWS, to maintain their own safety programs, train their employees to recognize work hazards, and to adhere to all applicable workplace safety standards: 3 See, Ex. 1, Hilcorp Safety Manual Table of Contents (a full copy of the Safety Manual is available upon request). Hilcorp has a comprehensive safety program that ensures standards of federal, state and local regulatory agencies are adhered to in the workplace, and ultimately that personnel are safe and the environment protected. The program includes the standard elements of a Safety Management System, including Employee Training and Contractor Oversight. It is implemented by ten safety professionals, one fire chief, and one safety systems administrator. Four of the safety professionals work on the North Slope while another four work in the Cook Inlet directly supporting field activities. Additionally Hilcorp Alaska's environmental department has twelve environmental professionals who oversee the environmental aspects of Hilcorp's activities. Two environmental specialists work on the North Slope; eight others work out of the Anchorage office and deploy to field locations as work conditions dictate. In addition to the twenty-four safety and environmental professionals staffed in Alaska, Hilcorp has another eighteen Environment, Health and Safety (EH&S) professionals staffed in the Lower -48. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 3 of 30 [IWS] must perform all work and services in accordance with all applicable safety regulations, precautions and procedures, and shall employ all protective equipment and devices required by governmental authorities, or reasonably recommended by industry safety associations. [Hilcorp] expects [IWS] to train its employees to recognize common hazards associated with their work tasks and [IWS] must adhere to all Hazard Communication Standards as required by all applicable Federal, State, and Local Safety Regulations or industry standards. 4 Hilcorp also mandates that everyone, including IWS personnel, have Stop Work Authority; All [Hilcorp] employees, [IWS] and its employees, agents or sub -contractors have "Stop Work Authority" for any unsafe or potentially unsafe situation. Any potential hazards identified must be reported immediately to a [Hilcorp] representative and work stopped until the hazard can be properly understood and corrected.5 IWS utilizes the DuPont Stop Work Program and incorporates the DuPont Stop Work cards into the daily operations. Personal Protective Equipment, Safety Meetings, and Job Safety Analyses are additional contractual requirements.6 Hilcorp EH&S professionals worked extensively with IWS prior to start-up of ASR1, and were assured that IWS's safety program was fully compliant.7 After ASR1 was placed in service, Hilcorp EH&S professionals regularly visited the rig and conducted audits, orientation and other support.8 Hilcorp's Wellsite Leader was aware of and observed participation at safety meetings and JSAs by IWS personnel. After the J -08A incident, Hilcorp obtained further confirmation, through copies of training logs, JSAs, STOP cards and Near Miss Reports,9 that IWS personnel regularly participated in and contributed to these vital programs. 4 See Ex. 2, Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Minimum Contractor Safety Requirements, which is an exhibit to the Hilcorp/IWS Master Services Agreement in effect at the time of the incident. 5 Id. 6 Id.

Milne Point Workover Project Planning and Sundry Submission Pursuant to its general powers and duties set forth in AS 31.05.030, the AOGCC has promulgated regulations 10 requiring operators to submit (a) an Application for Sundry Approvals (Form 10-403) ("Sundry Application") prior to commencement of workover operations, and (b) a Report of Sundry Well Operations (Form 10-404) ("Sundry Report") after completion of such operations. The Commission may waive these requirements "for wells in a pool for which pool rules have been prescribed," 11 which it did for certain BPXA's workover operations at Milne Point prior to Hilcorp becoming operator. Upon becoming operator at Milne Point, Hilcorp began submitting Sundry Applications for all workover projects, and received approvals from AOGCC personnel prior to commencement of any operations. It has also regularly submitted Sundry Reports at the conclusion of all such operations. In 20 ACC 25.280(b), the Commission has listed six specific types of information that must be provided with a Sundry Application. 12 Section 280(b)(5) requires "a description of wellbore fluid to be used for primary well control" but it is otherwise silent on the topic of liquids or gasses that might be employed during the course of any particular workover, such as for well cleanout. In addition, Section 280(b)(2) requires submission of "a copy of the proposed 10 20 AAC 25.280. 11 20 AAC 25.280(e). 12 These are: (1) the current condition of the well; (2) a copy of the proposed program for well work; (3) unless already on file with the commission, a diagram and description of the well control equipment to be used, including if applicable a list of the blowout prevention equipment (BOPE) with specifications; (4) the maximum downhole pressure that may be encountered, criteria used to determine it, and the maximum potential surface pressure based on a pressure gradient to surface of 0.1 psi per foot of true vertical depth, unless the commission approves a different pressure gradient that provides a more accurate means of determining the maximum potential surface pressure, such as using a stabilized shut-in tubing pressure; (5) a description of any wellbore fluid to be used for primary well control; and (6) the current bottom -hole pressure, or, if data setting out the actual pressure are not available, an estimate of the current bottom -hole pressure. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 5 of 30 program for well work," but provides no further detail or guidance regarding the content or level of detail of that item. Specifically, there is no requirement for submission of detailed descriptions of each particular step of the operation, or for submission of detailed written procedures for each of those steps. Box 12 of Form 10-403 lists three types of attachments" that can be submitted with the Sundry Application, with a box next to each to be checked as an indication of which of those are being submitted with the application. In every Sundry Application for Milne Point workovers submitted prior to the J -08A incident (including each of the Summary Applications that are at issue herein), Hilcorp informed the Commission that it was submitting only a Description Summary of Proposal and a BOP Sketch; in every case, the Commission approved the Sundry Application. Prior to the J -08A incident, Commission staff did not advise that it expected Hilcorp to state whether it intended to or might employ nitrified fluids or other additives to assist with well cleanout. A total of 4 workovers (including J -08A) involving the use of nitrogen gas have been performed at Milne Point since Hilcorp assumed the role of operator in early 2015, two using the Nordic 3 rig, and two using ASR1.14 On the first such job—MP Well I-15—the Hilcorp operations engineer indicated that nitrified fluids, surfactants and gel sweeps might be employed if "unable to gain circulations or solids to surface."' 5 This Sundry Application was approved, and the description of the proposed cleanout methods received no comment. At the end of this job, a 10-404 Sundry Report form was submitted, with a Weekly Operations Summary detailing the use of nitrogen gas in the cleanout. 16 The AOGCC again made no comment. The same operations engineer submitted a Sundry Application for Well J -09A (approved the same day as the Sundry Application on I-15),17 but indicated only the plan to "circulate the 13 Description Summary Proposal, Detailed Operations Program, and/or BOP sketch. 14 These are: Well I-15, Ex. 5 (Form 10-403, Sundry No. 315-158, approved March 25, 2015, and Form 10-404); Well J -09A, Ex. 6, (Form 10-403, Sundry No. 315-162, approved March 25, 2015, and Form 10- 404); Well J -01A, Ex. 7 (Form 10-403, Sundry No. 315-459, approved July 30, 2015 and Form 10-404) and Well J -08A, Ex. 8 (Form 10-403, Sundry No. 315-527, approved August 31, 2015, and Form 10- 404).

Seawater and nitrogen were used in that operation, and this was duly noted on Weekly Operations Summary submitted with the 10-404 Sundry Report form, to which the AOGCC made no comment.' S The third workover involving nitrogen use --on well J-01A—was performed by ASR1. A different Hilcorp operations engineer submitted a Sundry Application which did not mention that nitrogen gas would or might be used; 19 again, this fact was noted in the materials submitted with the 10-404 form, 20 without comment from the AOGCC. The final project involving nitrogen —also performed by ASR1—was on J -08A, and the Sundry Application again did not state whether nitrogen would or might be used during the well cleanout. 21 Hilcorp fully reported the incident at J -08A to the Commission, including the use of nitrogen. Its use was also clearly identified in documents submitted with the 10-404 following conclusion of the operation. 22 As a result of the incident at J -08A, Hilcorp first became aware that the AOGCC expected disclosure of intended or possible nitrogen use in Sundry Approvals, and that if the need to use nitrogen became apparent during the operation (and after its Sundry Application had been approved), that this would constitute "substantive change" requiring notification to the Commission pursuant to 20 AAC 25.507.23 In response, Hilcorp has altered its practice to require that future Sundries will note where the use of nitrogen is reasonably anticipated, and 18 Id. 19 Ex. 7, Well J-0 IA. 20 Id. 21 Ex. 8, Well J -08A. 22 Id. 23 The first and operative sentence of 20 AAC 25.507 provides in relevant part: If an operator desires to make a substantive change in a[n] . .. activity for which commission approval is required and has been obtained ... complete details of the well's current condition and the proposed change must be submitted to the commission with [a Sundry Application] .... Nothing in the regulations suggests that using nitrogen to assist in well cleanout operations is "substantive," and that qualifier is not defined or discussed in any other regulation.

The J -08A Incident. On September 25, 2015, three IWS employees (a toolpusher and two operators) were overcome by nitrogen gas inside the tank module of the ASR1 rig. An investigation team was convened to conduct an on-site investigation, resulting in an Internal Incident Investigation report, 25 an event sequencing chart, 26 a Root Cause Analysis 27 and a Lessons Learned Summary. 28 All of these items have previously been provided to the Commission. In order to assist the J -08A well cleanout, Halliburton was engaged to deliver and pump nitrogen to the ASR1 rig. Job Safety Analyses were conducted as the night crew came on duty at 6:00 pm on the 24th, 29and again when the day crew came on tour at 6:00 am on the 25`n 30 Both IWS toolpushers attended both JSAs, and the topic of nitrogen pumping was covered at both meetings. The 6:00 am meeting notes indicates discussion occurred of both the hazards (3rd party work, pressure, plugged lines, and loss of oxygen) and controls (good communications, monitoring pressure, avoidance of nitrogen clouds, and avoidance of areas where nitrogen is present). These items were all appropriate and accurate, and, indeed foreshadowed issues that later arose. The procedure involved simultaneous pumping of water and nitrogen down the annulus, with the intended goal of floating fluids and solids at the bottom of the well up and out the tubing. The returns, including fluids, solids and nitrogen were to be routed from the tubing to an open-air bleed tank located away from the other structures on the wellsite. 24 See infra, note 42. 25 Ex. 9, Internal Incident Investigation Report. 26 Ex. 10, Event Sequencing Chart. 27 Ex. 11, Root Cause Analysis. 28 Ex. 12, Lessons Learned Summary. 29 Ex. 13, JSA 9/24. This JSA form indicates that this meeting was conducted at 5:43 pm on September 24"'. 30 Ex. 13, JSA 9/25. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 8 of 30 The Halliburton crew made its connections to the ASR1 rig starting just after midnight on the 25th, after which it conducted another safety meeting at 2:10 am.31 A nitrogen line was run from Halliburton's truck to a T junction, which also connected to the ASRI's pump; the third leg of the T junction was connected to the well annulus (or kill side). Check valves were installed on the kill side of the T junction, in order to prevent nitrogen or well fluids from flowing back into the ASR1 pump line. 32 The only pressure gauge on the pump line was located on the kill side of the check valve—this meant that when there was back pressure (i.e., well pressure) on the check valve, it would close, and the gauge would only "see" pressure between the pump and the check valve. 33 After making its connection and conducting a pressure test to 3500 psi, the Halliburton crew began pumping nitrogen at 2:40 am. The volume of nitrogen was gradually increased, to 1200 scfm, and pumping proceeded for approximately 2 hours, when a leak developed in Halliburton's nitrogen hose. The pumping was suspended for approximately 25 minutes while the hose was replaced, after which the pumping continued from 4:55 am to 6:30 am, when nitrogen pumping ceased. The wellsite leader monitored returns to the bleed tank, and these indicated that the nitrogen cleanout had been a success. The Halliburton crew then stood by while the ASR1 crew pumped 50 bbl of seawater down the annulus, and monitored the well to ensure that the nitrogen had been removed. After pumping the first 50 bbl seawater pill, the pressure gauge on the tubing indicated 0 psig, while the annulus pressure indicated 300 psi—as noted above, however, the gauge which the crew relied on for annular pressure was reading the pressure trapped between the check valve and the ASR1 pump. In reality, the annular pressure was likely at least 1000 psi. The wellsite leader then released the Halliburton crew at approximately 8:00 am, who disconnected its nitrogen lines from the T junction (but left the T junction and the check valves in place). The wellsite leader called for a second 50 bbl seawater pill to be pumped down the annulus, but after only approximately 4 bbls, the crew encountered an unexpected pressure spike 3t Ex. 14, Halliburton Job Log. 32 Ex. 15, ASR1 Fluid Flow Diagram J -08A Incident. 33 Id. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 9 of 30 to around 1100 psi, which was thought to be due to an obstruction or a closed valve. This was reported by radio to the wellsite leader, who reportedly responded, "I'm confused fellas, let's sit down and talk." He directed the crew to stop pumping, and to bleed off what was anticipated to be a relatively small quantity of fluid. At this time, the IWS toolpusher was with the wellsite leader in the wellsite leader's office, located approximately 200-300 feet away from the rig and tank modules. The IWS operators (MB and JG34) determined that in order to bleed off the annulus pressure, the only readily available flow path was through the choke manifold and into the mud pits. On the way to the mud pits, the flow would go through a gas buster, which is a tank with baffles that directs liquid into the mud pit tanks, while it directs gas out a pipe which vents to the atmosphere at the top of the pit trailer. 35 The toolpusher met MB in the manifold room, 36 located at one end of the pit trailer, while JG stayed on the rig floor. MB walked down the lines from the rig floor, through the choke manifold and into the mud pit tank, which was the expected path for the fluid being bled off the annulus. MB reports that he simply missed the dump valve on the bottom of the gas buster. It is unclear whether the toolpusher also walked down the flow line path with MB; it is clear that the wellsite leader, who remained in his office, did not. As the bleed -off began, the toolpusher returned to the wellsite leader's office, while MB was in the manifold room and JG was on the rig floor, each monitoring the respective pressure gauges. 37 The noise level in the manifold room increased significantly, indicating that a gas, and not a liquid, was being bled off through the choke manifold. JG attempted to raise MB on the 34 The operators' initials will be used to protect their identities. 35 Id. 36 Ex. 16, J -08A Jobsite Overview; Ex. 17 ASRI Tank Trailer Passenger Side View; Ex. 18 ASR1 Tank Trailer Driver Side View. 37 JG was monitoring the pressure gauge at the pump, which, as noted previously, was "blind" to the annular pressure because of the check valve. Upon opening the HCR valve to route the annular returns through the choke manifold and into the pits, the pressure gauge on the choke manifold began recording the actual annular pressure. That gauge was visible in the manifold room on a screen, which would also have been viewable in the wellsite leader's office. It is believed that the pressure against the check valve was nearly equal to the annular pressure when the crew stopped pumping. This would have led to similar readings at both pressure gauges when the HCR valve was opened. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 10 of 30 radio, who did not respond due to the noise. JG then went to the manifold room and motioned to MB to join him on the stairs between the manifold room and rig floor. They walked into the tank room (immediately adjacent to the gas buster) in order to exit the tank trailer and proceed up the stairs toward the rig. After only this brief passage through the tank room, both remarked that they were light headed and feeling funny but were not thinking clearly enough to associate these symptoms with their work environment. JG then radioed the toolpusher to meet him by the tank trailer. MB stayed behind, and went back to his "station" in the manifold room. When they met outside, JG told the toolpusher that he and MB were both "loopy and dizzy." The toolpusher then stated that he would check this out, but did not stop the operation, and did not inform the wellsite leader of this development. They both walked around the back end of the tank trailer to the opposite side, and then to the front of the trailer where there is another set of stairs leading directly into the manifold room. As they passed the back of the trailer, the toolpusher indicated to JG that the mud hatch at the back of the trailer should be opened for extra ventilation. The toolpusher and JG arrived in the mud room and encountered MB. MB stepped out onto the landing for fresh air, JG stepped into the manifold room, and the toolpusher entered the tank room, presumably to open the mud hatch at the rear of the trailer. Again, the toolpusher did not inform the wellsite leader or shut down the job. After about 15-20 seconds, JG went into the tank room, and upon ascending the steps, observed the toolpusher in the far end near the mud hatch. JG then took a deep breath (right next to the gas buster), with the intent of assisting the toolpusher. He blacked out about halfway into the room, but he managed to reverse his direction and exit the trailer at the front entrance. MB then went into the tank room via the door between the manifold room and tank room, saw the toolpusher slumped at the back of the tank room, and then immediately went back to the manifold room and shut the choke valve to stop the pressure flow. He took a deep breath, re-entered the tank room, made it to the mud hatch which he opened, and then positioned the toolpusher next to the open hatch. He managed to make it back to the tank room side exit, where he was overcome on the stairs outside the exit. JG, in the meantime, had recovered sufficiently to see MB at the tank room entrance, assist him outside, and then make his way to the rig floor, where he shut in the well completely. He then sounded the man down alarm, and an emergency response was initiated. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 11 of 30 The toolpusher, JG and MB received oxygen, and were transported to the Milne Point unit clinic for evaluation. An incident team was assembled, and an investigation conducted. AOGCC was notified, and its representative went to the wellsite to investigate. Presumably, a report of the AOGCC investigation was prepared, but this has not been provided to Hilcorp as of the date of this submission. D. Hilcorp Has Engaged in Extensive Efforts to Identify and Correct the Causes of the J -08A Incident. As noted above, immediately after this incident, Hilcorp voluntarily conducted a thorough investigation, which identified and considered many potential causes that led to this incident. In addition, Hilcorp prepared a Comprehensive List of Causes (CLC),38 and a corresponding CLC Corrective Actions matrix 39 detailing numerous action items to address the CLC. A Lessons Learned Summary 40 was also prepared and voluntarily distributed widely throughout the company and to other North Slope producers. Hilcorp's investigation was rapid, candid and self-critical. Hilcorp has also cooperated fully with the Commission's own investigation, and agreed to all conditions imposed by the Commission prior to recommencing ASR1 operations. All but one of the items on the CLC Corrective Actions matrix have been completed .41 These corrective actions range from locking and tagging out the dump valve on the gas buster, to providing further training regarding the ASR1 rig's choke manifold and associated flow lines, to supplementing the rig's gas detection system with low oxygen sensors, to providing in -ear headsets to facilitate communication in high noise environments, etc. In addition, Hilcorp effected a leadership change at ASR1, now assigning two wellsite leaders (instead of one) to manage the drilling programs. 38 See, Ex. 11 (Comprehensive List of Causes contained in Root Cause Analysis). 39 Ex. 19, CLC Corrective Actions Matrix. 40 Ex. 12, Lessons Learned Summary. 41 Item 5 of the CLC Corrective Actions Matrix, installation of low oxygen detectors, is very close to completion. The detectors have been installed, but have not yet fully been wired and commissioned. That will occur by mid-February, during the ASR1 crew's scheduled time off. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 12 of 30 Significantly, Hilcorp has also changed its approach to the preparation of Sundry Authorization forms to standardize the level of detail provided to the Commission. Prior to this incident, there was some degree of variability in the level of detail submitted to the Commission to comply with the requirement in 20 AAC 25.280(b)(2) for "a copy of the proposed program for well work." Some operations engineers at Milne Point tended to provide more of a summary with the Sundry Authorization, and then provide a more detailed work program to the field. Other operations engineers provided a summary procedure to both, with the expectation that the field personnel would be better suited to develop detailed procedures matching the on-site conditions at the time of the operation. Prior to the J -08A incident, Commission staff routinely approved workover plans with more or less detail, and did not express a preference or expectation for one format over the other. Hilcorp has now adopted a practice intended to standardize Sundry Authorization submissions, and to ensure both that the submitted procedures are adequately detailed, and that these same procedures will be provided to the wellsite for execution. 42 Deviations from the submitted procedures require notice to and approval from the Commission. 42 Ex. 20, email from Bo York (Operations Manager at Milne Point) to Hilcorp personnel, dated November 30, 2015. In relevant part, Hilcorp management expects strict adherence to the following practices: Prior to Initiating Well Work: 1. Operations engineer responsible for the well work will develop the procedure with adequate detail to ensure field execution may occur within the steps included in the procedure and all AOGCC requirements are addressed. 2. Regulatory Tech (Tom Fouts) will generate Form 10-403 to accompany the procedure. 3. Operations engineer that developed the procedure will review the procedure with the Field Foremen and Well Site Manager that will be performing the work. Intent is to obtain their comments and input on the steps and to leverage their 20+ years of performing well work. 4. Operations engineer will provide the reviewed procedure and Form 10-403 to the operations manager for review and schedule a peer review meeting with the other operations engineers in town. Typically this meeting will occur on Friday after the AFE review meeting but can be scheduled at any time. Field Foreman and WSMs should also be invited to this meeting. 5. After the changes are incorporated from the peer review, the operations engineer will initial the Form 10-403 and the operations manager will sign it. (continued) Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 13 of 30 All of the efforts detailed above (most of which were voluntarily and independently taken prior to receipt of the AOGCC Notices) demonstrate Hilcorp's sincere and thoughtful desire to improve both safety in its operations and compliance with the Commission's expectations. As discussed infra,43 these actions should be considered in determining the amount of the penalty to be assessed for the violations detailed in the Notices. E. The I-03 Alleged Failure to Report Use of Blowout Prevention Equipment. The Notice at Dkt. OTH-15-029 relates to an incident that occurred on May 2, 2015, during a workover of MP Well I-03, which was being performed for the purpose of straddling a casing leak which had been discovered previously. After the straddle assembly was successfully set, the well began to flow, which was an expected possible consequence of the operation. The BOPE, which was already closed in anticipation of the possible flow, was used to restrict the flow of the well while it was weighted up with fluid. 6. The Reg Tech will submit the 10-403, procedure, and all attachments to AOGCC two weeks prior to performing the work. 7. The Reg Tech will track the submittal and let the operations engineer know once approval is received. Work Execution. 1. The operations engineer and WSM are responsible for executing the work. 2. Prior to starting the work, a kick off meeting will be held by the WSM with the rig crew. The entire procedure will be walked through and any special safety considerations will be addressed. The rig crew should understand the procedure and the approved steps. This meeting will be documented on a safety meeting sign in sheet. 3. ANY deviation from the approved procedures will be discussed with the operations engineer and in turn the AOGCC representative. Work will not proceed until the deviation is approved by AOGCC. 4. ANY step or detail not included in the approved procedure but is discovered during well work activities and needs to be added will be discussed with the operations engineer and in turn the AOGCC representative. Work will not proceed until the addition is approved by AOGCC. 5. I repeat this....If the step is not included in the approved procedure or if a detail is added/changed, work will stop until the operations engineer notifies the AOGCC and the change/added step is approved. The operations engineer may get verbal approval but ALWAYS followed up with written confirmation via email. (emphasis in original). 43 At Section IIIB(8). Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 14 of 30 The wellsite leader advised Hilcorp's team by email of the success of the straddle and that the well had begun to flow. 44 Hilcorp's operations engineer responded: ... please make sure that you notify AOGCC of closure of BOPS due to well control within 24hrs. Looks like you have everything under control. The wellsite leader then responded "Ha they were already closed!" referring to the fact that the BOPE had been closed in anticipation of the well flowing when the packer placed during the operation was released. The wellsite leader nevertheless sent an email message to several AOGCC personnel, including Jeff Jones and James Regg, advising them as follows: Utilized Annular BOP for Shut in while waiting to weight up after successful straddle isolation. Weighting up fluid density .5 ppg. Not sure if notification required in this situation. 45 James Regg responded to Hilcorp's wellsite leader, "If planned step in your operation report is not required. ,46 Accordingly, no further report was made to the AOGCC. In its Notice, the Commission alleges that Hilcorp violated 20 AAC 25.285 by failing to provide notice of the BOPE use, and by failing to re -test the equipment before re-entering the well after its use. However, the Commission apparently overlooked the above -quoted communications between Hilcorp and AOGCC personnel. Pursuant to 20 AAC 25.285(1)(2), routine use of BOPE in workover operations where such use is not suspected to have compromised its effectiveness is an exception to the retesting requirements of 20 AAC 25.285(f)(2) .47 Section .285(f)(2) requires a re -test of BOPE when it is "used for well control or other equivalent purpose, or when routine use of the equipment may have compromised its effectiveness ...." Since that is not how the BOPE was used in this instance, no re -test was required. Under these circumstances, Hilcorp respectfully disagrees with the Commission's imposition of a fine. Based on the communications between Hilcorp and AOGCC staff 44 Ex. 21, Email string between WB and Chris Kanyer, May 2, 2015. 45 Ex. 22, Email from WB to AOGCC, May 2, 2015. 46 id. 47 Hilcorp personnel advise that the industry shorthand of "closing the BOP in anger," as distinguished from routine use, is the trigger for the re -testing requirements of 20 AAC 25.285(f)(2). Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 15 of 30 discussed above, it is clear that Hilcorp did not willfully disregard 20 AAC 25.285(0. The fact that Hilcorp promptly reached out to AOGCC staff to clarify the regulatory requirements demonstrates Hilcorp's good faith efforts to comply. Moreover, Hilcorp does not believe the factual circumstances surrounding the I-03 workover establish a sufficient basis to enhance the penalties proposed in the other Notices 48 at issue here. F. The Facts Do Not Justify the AOGCC's Use of Inflammatory Language. In proposing fines for these and other violations, the Commission employs particularly harsh language in the notices of proposed enforcement. Regardless of the nature of the alleged violation, or its relationship to other alleged violations, each notice of proposed enforcement states the following: [This] violation is neither isolated nor innocent and is emblematic of ongoing compliance problems with Hilcorp rig workover operations. The disregard for regulatory compliance is endemic to Hilcorp's approach to its Alaska operations and virtually assured the occurrence of this violation. Hilcorp's conduct is inexcusable. Hilcorp conducts many operations in over 20 units and fields in Cook Inlet and on the North Slope. Virtually all of these operations are permitted, conducted, concluded, and reported in full compliance with AOGCC and other statutes and regulations. Rather than operating with a disregard for compliance, Hilcorp works diligently and in good faith to comply with all applicable laws and regulations, and has swiftly implemented corrective actions where it has fallen short. Therefore, the Commission's use of inflammatory language in the notices is not justified by the facts. III. ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED FINES Hilcorp believes that the enforcement action proposed by the Commission in the Notices raises serious concerns about the scope of the Commission's authority, as well as the cumulative nature of the proposed fines. These concerns are addressed infra in section IV. 48 Dockets OTH-15-025, 030 and 031. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 16 of 30 This section discusses Hilcorp's concerns with the fines, using the factors contained in AS 31.05.150(g), which provides: In determining the amount of a penalty assessed under (a) of this section, the commission shall consider (1) the extent to which the person committing the violation was acting in good faith in attempting to comply; (2) the extent to which the person committing the violation acted in a wilful or knowing manner; (3) the extent and seriousness of the violation and the actual or potential threat to public health or the environment; (4) the injury to the public resulting from the violation; (5) the benefits derived by the person committing the violation from the violation; (6) the history of compliance or noncompliance by the person committing the violation with the provisions of this chapter, the regulations adopted under this chapter, and the orders, stipulations, or terms of permits issued by the commission; (7) the need to deter similar behavior by the person committing the violation and others similarly situated at the time of the violation or in the future; (8) the effort made by the person committing the violation to correct the violation and prevent future violations; and (9) other factors considered relevant to the assessment that are adopted by the commission in regulation. Hilcorp respectfully submits that if due regard is given to these factors, the fines proposed by the Commission should be substantially reduced, and in some instances eliminated. A. $250,000 Total Fines for Failure to Provide Notice of Expected or Potential Nitrogen Use in Workover Operations. The Commission issued three Notices as a result of workovers that employed nitrogen. The Notice at docket OTH-15-025, which addresses the incident at J -08A, proposes an overall fine of $700,00049 related to this incident, with $100,000 being assessed for performing the 49 This Notice also assesses a $20,000 fine for late reporting of the BOPE test conducted prior to startup after the J -08A incident. Although this late reporting (of a successful BOPE test) was pure oversight and a departure from its otherwise timely BOPE test submittal practice, Hilcorp does not contest that it submitted its BOPE test results three days late. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 17 of 30 cleanout of J -08A using an unapproved contingent plan. The Notices at Dockets OTH-15-030 and 031 relate to two other workovers that employed nitrogen, and propose a fine of $75,000 in each instance. The Notice at docket OTH-15-029 relates to a different issue entirely, 5' but is cited as an aggravating factor which justifies the severe penalties contained in the other Notices. Hilcorp questions the regulatory basis for, as well as the amount of, the proposed fines. As noted previously, 51 the Commission has promulgated no regulation nor issued any guidance stating or even suggesting that Sundry Applications must include mention of the expected or potential use of nitrogen gas during the well cleanout portion of a workover operation, or that deciding to use nitrogen due to unforeseen factors constitutes a "substantive change" of the approved activity. 52 Well cleanout is a standard step in every workover at Milne Point. The use of seawater, nitrogen, or other substances is standard industry practice and depends on actual well conditions encountered during the operation. On the one occasion where Hilcorp mentioned in its Sundry Application that nitrogen or other additives might be employed ,53 the Commission made no comment. On the two other jobs where nitrogen was not mentioned in the Sundry Application but used during the operation, this fact was clearly identified in material submitted in the Sundry Report forms 10-404 after the conclusion of the operations—again, without any comment from the Commission that it considered this a "substantive change" of the operations. In the absence of any regulation, guidance or mention of this topic by the Commission, Hilcorp's failure to include the potential for nitrogen use in Sundry Application stemmed from a good faith belief that such mention was not required. The failure to include mention of nitrogen was not due to a willful failure to comply or for the purposes of deceiving the Commission. Hilcorp received no benefit, either—the Commission's previous silence regarding the use of nitrogen (both before and after workovers involving the use of nitrogen) hardly gave Hilcorp the so Discussed supra, at Section IIE. 51 Supra, at Section IIB. " See discussion at Section IIB, supra regarding the lack of any definition of "substantive change" in the Commissions regulations or guidance; as well as the fact that the Sundry Application form 10-403 does not inquire on this or similar topics. 53 MPU Well I-15 on March 24-29, 2015. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 18 of 30 sense that it could avoid scrutiny or otherwise benefit if it failed to seek pre -approval of nitrogen use. Thus, factors 1, 2 and 5 of AS 31.05.150(g) do not support imposition of any fine, much less that the fine should be enhanced. In addition, there is no indication that the failure to mention nitrogen in the Sundry Applications, or to notify the Commission of its use during the operation, was in any way a cause of the IWS personnel being overcome by nitrogen. At the time of the incident, the nitrogen pumping was concluded, and Halliburton's nitrogen truck had been disconnected from the rig. The release occurred not because the nitrogen cleanout was performed incorrectly, but because, inter alia, the rig crew failed to manage a change in flow direction correctly. Notifying AOGCC personnel prior to the pumping would not have prevented this incident; likewise there is nothing to suggest that failing to notify AOGCC personnel of the possible use of nitrogen during the workover made the occurrence of this event more likely. Thus, factors 3 and 4 of AS 31.05.150(g), which consider the causal connection between the violation and the actual or potential injury or threat to public health and safety, do not support imposition or enhancement of any fine. Regarding factor 6 of AS 31.05.150(g), and as addressed supra in Section IIE, the Commission has improperly alleged violations of 20 AAC 25.285(f) as a basis for these fines. As noted previously, 54 Hilcorp has now adopted procedures to both standardize and improve its Sundry Applications. Hilcorp respectfully suggests that the Commission's expectations for its Sundry Applications in general, and for notification about anticipated use of nitrogen in particular, could have been more clearly communicated, particularly with respect to the operations at Milne Point, a unit where Sundry Applications for certain workover activities had not historically been required. Hilcorp wants and intends to comply with the Commission's expectations for its Sundry Applications, and clear communication, rather than the proposed fines, is the most effective way to achieve this. 55 54 Supra, at Section IID, n. 42. 55 AS 31.05.150(g)(9) suggests that the Commission may consider "other factors ... that are adopted by the commission in regulation." Hilcorp is unaware of any such regulations. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 19 of 30 B. $600,000 Fine for Failure to Maintain Safe Work Environment in Accordance With Good Oilfield Engineering Practices. The proposed fine at docket OTH-15-025 is based on a single operation 56 that was conducted in an unsafe manner. The proposed fine consists of six separate sub -parts, each of which will be discussed in greater detail below. As a preliminary matter, Hilcorp believes that the AOGCC does not have statutory authority to levy fines to multiple asserted violations of 20 AAC 25.526 that occur during the same incident on the same day, and thus the fine based on this regulation should be reduced to a single fine of no more than $100,000. 1. No Authority to Assess Multiple Fines for a Single Unsafe Operation. Alaska law provides the AOGCC authority to levy a fine "of not more than $100,000 for the initial violation and not more than $10,000 for each day thereafter on which the violation continues." 57 The statute therefore permits the levying of a fine for the initial regulatory violation and daily fines thereafter so long as the underlying violation continues. 20 AAC 25.526 provides that "An operator shall carry on all operations and maintain the property at all times in a safe and skillful manner in accordance with good oil field engineering practices and having due regard for the preservation and conservation of the property and protection of freshwater." This regulation contains no discrete subparts that can be independently violated instead, an operator is either in compliance or in violation at any given time. Put simply, once an operator is conducting an operation in an unsafe manner, the operator is in violation of this regulation (and subject to additional daily fines) until the operator remedies the conditions that make its operation unsafe. In its Notice, the AOGCC asserts that Hilcorp failed to maintain a "safe work environment" at the wellsite as a result of six distinct acts that it asserts failed to conform with "generally accepted oilfield practices." The Commission proposes to levy a $100,000 fine for each of these individual conditions. For instance, the Commission alleges that Hilcorp failed "to 56 The operation in question may be seen in general terms as the workover, which was the subject of an approved Sundry Application. The precise step in that operation which resulted in an unsafe condition was the decision to bleed annular pressure to the tank trailer via the choke manifold and gas buster. No matter how viewed, this was a single operation. 5' AS 31.05.150(a). Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 20 of 30 engage in a formal hazards identification" before performing the cleanout of MPU J -08A. If this or any other act identified in the Notice resulted in an unsafe workover operation, there was still only one unsafe operation—the additional acts did not re -violate 25 AAC 25.526. The AOGCC has the statutory authority to levy a fine upon Hilcorp's failure to meet the "safe and skillful manner" standard of 20 AAC 25.526—regardless of whether this violation was caused by one or more acts or omissions. Once in violation, however caused, the AOGCC's authority to levy additional fines was limited to daily fines for on-going violation. This interpretation of AOGCC's fining authority comports with Alaska law regarding multiple penalties for conduct arising out of a single transaction, which focuses on the consequences of multiple violations of the same law.58 Here, the consequence of one or all of Hilcorp's asserted actions was that Hilcorp was failing to perform its operation in a safe and skillful manner. Whether a single act or multiple acts occurred during the operation to produce the violation, the consequence was the same. Accordingly, AOGCC has the authority to levy a single fine for failing to conduct the operation on September 25, 2015 in a safe and skillful manner, but it may not assess separate fines for each act or omission that may have contributed to that failure. 2. $100,000 for failure to engage in formal hazards identification process. Contrary to the Commission's assertion, Hilcorp required IWS to—and IWS did routinely—engage in a formal hazard identification process before all operations, 59 including in particular the nitrogen pumping operation on September 24-25 at J -08A. The JSAs prepared by the IWS crew specifically identified the hazards and risks of nitrogen (particularly creating an oxygen -deprived environment). The set-up of the job adequately assessed the risks associated with normal nitrogen cleanout operations, which properly directed the well returns (including nitrogen) to an outside, open-air tank. Signs were posted at the job site warning that nitrogen was in use. In this instance, the particular hazard to the IWS crew arose after the nitrogen cleanout was complete, after Halliburton's nitrogen pumping truck had disconnected from the rig, and 58 Johnson v. State, 328 P.3d 77, 88 (Alaska 2014). 59 See supra, Section IIA. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 21 of 30 after the crew believed all of the nitrogen gas had been removed from the well. Unexpected pressure was encountered while pumping seawater down the annulus, and the toolpusher and wellsite leader decided to "bleed off' what was believed to be a small amount of water to the mud pits via the gas buster, which (unbeknownst to all) had the dump valve in an open position through which nitrogen escaped into the enclosed space. Upon encountering this changed operation, Hilcorp's expectations were that a hazard assessment for the new operation would be conducted. The crew and wellsite leader incorrectly believed that the bleed -off operation was such a minor and routine step that the existing JSA was adequate and did not need to be revisited. This failure to employ the established hazard identification process, rather than the lack of such a process, led directly to this incident. Although Hilcorp and its contractors routinely engage in job hazard identification and follow industry and governmental standards specific to this issue, the Commission has not promulgated any regulation or issued any guidance which requires an operator to engage in a formal hazards identification process. Here, the Commission states that this process should have been facilitated by "hazards/risk experts ... including assessing the risks of using nitrogen in a fill cleanout on ASRI." It is unclear what the Commission's expectations are for the involvement of "hazards/risk experts." In discussing this issue, the Notice refers to an OSHA publication, but the Commission has not adopted any regulation making violation of this publication a basis for a fine under 20 AAC 25.526. 3. $100,000 for failure to identify and implement safeguards to ensure personnel safety in the event of a nitrogen release. The principal safeguard employed to ensure personal safety in the event of a nitrogen release—avoidance of accumulations of nitrogen gas—was identified and implemented through direction of the cleanout returns, including the nitrogen gas, to outside open-air tanks. Directing the nitrogen returns to the tank trailer was not a normal or anticipated operation. Even so, the mud pit trailer had both a gas buster and a high volume air exchange/exhaust system that were sufficient to deal with any accumulation of nitrogen gas in the returns from the well bore—it was the failure to use these as designed which led to the incident, and this failure was one of management of change, which is covered below. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 22 of 30 To the extent this fine is based on a failure to include a low oxygen alarm along with the ASR1's gas detection system, this is not mandated either by industry or OSHA standards, or in any regulation promulgated by the Commission, and thus cannot form the basis for the proposed fine. Nevertheless, after this incident, Hilcorp voluntarily outfitted the ASR1 rig with such alarms as additional protection against low oxygen due to any cause, including nitrogen accumulation. 4. $100,000 for "Failure to provide and make available at the rig a detailed procedure for performing a fill cleanout with nitrogen, including requirements for verification of the integrity of all barriers in the flow paths for wellbore fluids returning to surface during the fill cleanout operations." The Commission has issued no regulations requiring that procedures for workover operations be provided to the rig, and has issued no guidance specifying the level of detail that the Commission would consider adequate. This finding also overlooks the fact that Halliburton made available a detailed and comprehensive procedure for performing a fill cleanout with nitrogen 60 and communicated this to the rig hands at pre -job safety meetings at the wellsite. In addition, verifying the integrity of all barriers in the flow paths for fluids returning to surface is a well -understood and constant responsibility of the wellsite leader and toolpusher. This was in fact done before the nitrogen pumping operation itself. The nitrogen pumping operation was concluded at the time of this incident, and no procedure for nitrogen cleanout would have addressed the precise circumstances that were encountered. Accordingly, the alleged failure to include a detailed procedure had no causal relationship to this incident. The cause of this incident was Hilcorp's ineffective management of change, not the lack of a detailed procedure at the wellsite. The IWS crew state that they did, in fact, walk down the lines prior to initiating flow into the mud pits, thus demonstrating knowledge that verification of flow paths was a requirement. However, the open dump valve at the bottom of the gas buster was missed in this process. In addition, the wellsite leader did not walk down the lines, as was his clearly understood responsibility. 60 Ex. 23, Halliburton N2 Procedures. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 23 of 30 Nevertheless, Hilcorp has instituted a practice of requiring such detailed procedures at the wellsite, and has created diagrams of anticipated connections and flows for various standard pumping operations. 5. $100,000 for failure to have in place a robust "Stop Work Authority" that was clearly understood and readily implemented by ASR1. This fine is contrary to the evidence and not supported by regulation. As demonstrated above, 61 Hilcorp mandates incorporation of a Stop Work Authority into its operations, and IWS utilizes the Dupont STOP program, a state-of-the-art safety program that, among other things, empowers each and every worker to stop work at any time when safety concerns arise. This stop work authority was regularly underscored during pre job meetings, during safety meetings, during numerous training sessions, and through IWS's regular use of "STOP cards." Interviews of the personnel involved in this operation disclose that they all readily understood their right and duty to stop work; all readily understand that they could and should have stopped the work at a number of points in the operation, particularly just after they detected an unusual smell and experienced light-headedness. None of the involved employees can explain their failure to do so—and all of them readily admit that this was a mistake—but it was not due to the lack of such a program in the first instance. The Commission has adopted no regulations addressing stop work authority policies or programs, nor has it promulgated regulations or issued guidance regarding the "robustness" that such policies and programs must achieve. The proposed fine on this alleged basis is therefore unsupported. 6. $100,000 for failure to assess and manage changes that potentially introduce new hazards or unknowingly increase the risk of existing hazards during a rig workover. Hilcorp has identified this failure as the principal cause of this accident, and has taken numerous corrective actions, including replacing and enhancing wellsite leadership, to prevent such incidents from reoccurring. 61 See supra, Section IIA. Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 24 of 30 7. $100,000 for inadequate training of personnel on ASR1. As detailed above, 62 Hilcorp's employees receive extensive regular and ongoing training, and possess all required certifications. While the personnel involved failed to follow their training in several key respects, it does not follow that the training they received was inadequate or deficient. The training records of every employee are available for inspection by the Commission, and the Commission has not specified which training was supposedly inadequate, nor the regulatory authority for imposing a fine on this basis. Accordingly, this proposed fine is not legally or factually supported. 8. The proposed fines do not consider the factors in AS 31.05.150(g). The Commission proposes to assess the maximum fine, six times, for conduct leading to the J -08A incident. In so doing, the Commission has focused on one of nine factors set forth in AS 31.05.150(g)factor 6, "the history of compliance or noncompliance by the person committing the violation with the provisions of this chapter." In so doing, the Commission raises unadjudicated allegations contained in other Notices, at least one of which 63 lacks a factual basis. Increasing the severity of a fine based on unproven allegations is a practice inconsistent with due process, and when, as here, the unproven allegations are shown to be without basis, the proposed action loses its support entirely. In imposing its maximum fine, multiplied six -fold, the Commission also fails to consider any of the other 8 factors of 31.05.150(g). In particular, the Commission should consider: that the violations alleged were not willful or knowing (factors 1-2); that Hilcorp derived absolutely no benefit from the alleged violations (factor 5); that Hilcorp is highly motivated by factors other than the proposed fine to prevent such incidents from reoccurring (factor 7); and that Hilcorp has voluntarily initiated a wide range of corrective actions to prevent such incidents from occurring in the future (factor 8). 62 Id. 63 Docket OTH-15-029, discussed supra, at Section IIE.

VAGUENESS, REGULATORY OVERREACH, AND DUE PROCESS The Notice indicates that the Commission intends to impose $600,000 in penalties against Hilcorp under AS 31.05.150 for violation of 20 AAC 25.526 (".526"), citing conduct that threatened worker safety. The Commission promulgated .526 to create operational standards to conserve and protect oil, gas, and freshwater. It does not and cannot apply to worker safety. Further, to extend .526 to worker safety would require an expansive interpretation that would render the regulation impermissibly ambiguous and vague, violating due process. A. The Commission Lacks Authority to Regulate Worker Safety. Alaska's Administrative Procedure Act ("APA") states that when "a state agency has authority to adopt regulations to implement, interpret, make specific or otherwise carry out the provisions of [a] statute, a regulation adopted is not valid or effective unless consistent with the statute and reasonably necessary to carry out the purpose of the statute. ,64 In addition, the APA states that "[t]o be effective, each regulation adopted must be within the scope of authority conferred and in accordance with standards prescribed by other provisions of law." 65 Here, it is clear that, by extending application of .526 to worker safety, the Commission has exceeded its statutory authority. 66 64 AS 44.62.030 65 AS 44.62.020. 66 When .526 was adopted, AS 31.05.150 did not authorize the Commission to regulate worker safety, or impose fines against an oilfield operator for action that threatens worker safety. Recognizing this lack of authority, John K. Norman, then Chair of the Commission, testified before the Alaska Senate in 2007 that a "recently concluded enforcement action [had] emphasized the lack of [the AOGCC's] specific authority for the regulation of safety issues." Hearing on H.B. 109, Alaska State Legislature, House Special Committee on Oil and Gas, April 12, 2007 (statement of Chair John K. Norman, Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission). In response, the Legislature revised AS 31.05.030 to provide the Commission the ability, but not the mandate, to regulate "for conservation purposes and, to the extent not in conflict with regulation by the Department of Labor and Workforce Development or the Department of Environmental Conservation, for public health and safety purposes." 2007 Alaska Sess. Laws ch. 54, §§ 2 to 5 (S.B. 109) (codified as AS 31.05.030). However, the Commission has never implemented regulations to exercise this permissive authority. Mr. Norman's testimony recognized that the Commission lacked statutory authority to regulate safety issues when it adopted .526. The authorizing statute in effect in 1999 allowed the Commission to regulate only "for conservation purposes." AS 31.05.030(e)(1) (1998). Subsequent to the 2007 amendment of AS 31.05.030, the Commission has not issued formal or informal guidance in the form of promulgated regulations, "Industry Guidance (continued) Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 26 of 30 B. Ambiguity of 20 AAC 25.526 Prohibits Application to Worker Safety. Even if the Commission had the statutory authority to regulate safety when it adopted 526, the regulation would be ambiguous and unenforceable in that respect. As the Alaska Supreme Court explained in 2015: A regulation is ambiguous when [it] is capable of two or more equally logical interpretations. And ambiguous statutory or regulatory requirements must be strictly construed in favor of the accused before an alleged breach may give rise to a civil penalty. . . . People should not be required to guess whether a certain course of conduct is one which is apt to subject them to criminal or serious civil penalties. 67 The terms "safe and skillful manner" and "in accordance with good oilfield engineering practices" are vague and undefined. However, the phrase "having due regard for the preservation and conservation of the property and protection of freshwater" indicates the conduct proscribed relates to the goal of resource and freshwater conservation. The Commission has underscored this interpretation in its public statements. For instance, in its 2010 Statement to the Governor, the Commission wrote that it "strives to ensure safe, technically prudent, and environmentally protective oil and gas well construction and operations" through its regulatory programs. 68 The Commission stated: Specific to drilling and workover operations, Commission performs periodic compliance inspections to ensure the equipment being used is consistent with the approved application, provides redundant levels of safety and protection for the well operations being performed, and is suitable for the environment in which activities are being conducted. Blowout prevention equipment inspections and witnessing tests per the regulatory frequency is a particular emphasis for AOGCC inspections. 69 Bulletins," or enforcement orders that purport to expand the meaning of .526 beyond the bounds statutorily authorized when it was adopted in 1999. The Commission lacked authority to regulate any safety issue when it adopted .526, and the Commission cannot now attempt to utilize it for this purpose. 67 RBG Bush Planes, LLC v. Alaska Public Offices Connnn, n, 361 P.3d 886, 892 (Alaska 2015) (internal quotation marks and citations omitted). 68 AOGCC Statement to Governor, May 2010, available at http://doa.alaska.gov/ogc/reports- studi es/AOGCC_Statement_to_Gov.pdf. 69 Id. (emphasis added). Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 27 of 30 The Commission went on to explain: After well drilling and completion, upon and after the onset of well production operations, other Commission regulations require installation, use, and maintenance of safety-related well hardware such as surface safety valves for certain types of wells, subsurface safety valves for certain wells, and various well production flow control devices. All offshore wells require an automatic, failsafe surface safety valve. A subsurface safety valve is required in every offshore producing well unless the operator can demonstrate to the Commission's satisfaction that the well is incapable of unassisted flow of hydrocarbons to surface. The components of a well safety valve system are regularly inspected by Commission for proper operation given the production characteristics of the well and the challenges of operating environment, including witnessing tests. Operators are required to test of the components of a safety valve system at least once every 6 months and provide all test results to the Commission for review.70 These statements make clear that the Commission's regulation of "safety" refers to ensuring wells are equipped sufficiently to prevent catastrophic blowouts that waste resources and pollute freshwater. While blowouts are inherently unsafe for workers, the Commission does not indicate (nor does the legislature) that worker safety is the object of its regulatory structure and inspections. In fact, the Commission's statutes and regulations do not even mention the words "employee" (other than Commission employees) or "worker." This orientation toward well safety, not worker safety, is consistent with Alaska's larger regulatory scheme. The Legislature has a specifically designated agency to ensure worker safety, the Alaska Occupational Safety and Health section of the Department of Labor and Workforce Development. The Commission's authorizing statute, which grants it the authority to regulate oil and gas operations for public health and safety only "to the extent not in conflict with regulation by the Department of Labor and Workforce Development,"7I makes this division of purpose between the Commission and AKOSH clear. This prohibits "conflict," but does not create overlapping authority. Finally, application of .526 in the Commission's publicly -available enforcement orders is consistent with Hilcorp's understanding that the "safe and skillful" requirement means an operator must conduct operations in a prudent manner to avoid waste of oil and gas or 70 Id. 7' AS 31.05.030(e). Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 28 of 30 contamination of freshwater. The Commission has not cited .526 in an enforcement order in over 10 years, and not since 2007 amendment of AS 31.05.150. It has only cited the regulation three times.72 The Commission has applied .526 exclusively to engineering practices creating a significant risk of resource waste through a blowout, and they support interpretation that .526 regulates the safe operation of a well, not the work environment. C. 20 AAC 25.526 is Unconstitutionally Vague. The Commission has the authority to levy fines for violation of its promulgated regulations. As a result, Commission's regulations must meet basic constitutional due process requirements to be enforceable. Alaska courts recognize that "in order to be consistent with notions of fundamental fairness a statute must give adequate notice of the conduct that is prohibited. ,73 Even if Commission had the statutory authority to regulate worker safety at the time .526 was adopted, .526 would be unconstitutionally vague in that respect. As outlined above, by its language and history, .526 limits its application to conservation of resource and protection of freshwater, and nothing the Commission has done provides notice that .526 encompasses worker safety.74 The regulation fails to give "the ordinary citizen fair notice of what is and what is not prohibited. ,75 Hilcorp "should not be required to guess whether a certain course of conduct is one which is apt to subject [it] to ... serious civil penalties," but .526, as the Commission is now interpreting it, requires operators to do just that. 76 As a result, 526 is void for vagueness under Alaska law. 72 In a June 2, 2005 order, the Commission cited Nabors Alaska Drilling for violating rules regarding testing of blowout prevention equipment on a rig by falsifying test results with a practice referred to as "chart spinning." AOGCC Order 34 - Nabors Alaska Drilling, Rig 9ES, Enforcement Order. In 2004, the Commission cited BPXA in two orders for failing to bleed off well pressure before restarting a shut-in well and in connection with its practices in managing wells with sustained annular pressures, in the latter case resulting in a catastrophic failure and explosion. AOGCC Order 32 - BPXA, PBU, H-11, Enforcement Order; AOGCC Order 29 - BPXA, PBU A-22, Enforcement Order. These orders did not cite worker safety as a basis for the operators' failure to conduct activities in a "safe and skillful" manner. 73 State v. Rice, 626 P.2d 104, 109 (Alaska 1981) (applying due process doctrine to regulatory violation). 74 See AS 44.62.190 (requiring publication 30 days before the adoption, amendment, or repeal of a regulation). 75 VECO Intern., Inc. v. Alaska Public Offices Comm'n, 753 P.2d 703, 714 (Alaska 1988). 76 Id, Hilcorp Alaska, LLC Submission for Informal Review (OTH-15-25, OTH-15-29, OTH-15-30, and OTH-15-31) Page 29 of 30 In addition to the notice requirement, the Alaska Supreme Court has held that a statute is unenforceably vague if a "statute's imprecise language encourages arbitrary enforcement by allowing prosecuting authorities undue discretion to determine the scope of its prohibitions."77 Again, the Commission has never applied .526 to worker safety, never issued any regulations or guidance that it intended to do so, and only imposed penalties for conduct creating a significant risk of resource waste through a blowout. That the Commission has not consistently sought to enforce .526 on the basis of worker safety demonstrates selective enforcement in this instance that makes the regulation unenforceably vague. V. CONCLUSION Hilcorp concedes that the incident at J -08A was unfortunate and preventable. Hilcorp immediately and dispassionately investigated the incident, identified its most likely contributing causes, and then systematically proceeded to make corrections and improvements with the goal of substantially reducing the likelihood of similar future incidents. However, the fines proposed by the Commission are excessive, not justified by the factual record, and outside the scope of its regulatory authority. Further, the factual record does not support the Commission's claims that Hilcorp has an "endemic disregard" for compliance. On the contrary, Hilcorp's record in Alaska demonstrates conscientious attention to regulatory compliance, and swift corrective action when Hilcorp falls short. Hilcorp looks forward to engaging in an open and candid discussion of these issues with the Commissioners at the upcoming informal review, and hopes that by doing so an agreed resolution of this matter can be achieved. The Commissioners and Hilcorp share the same goal—encouraging the safe and responsible production of Alaska's oil and gas resources. " State v. Rice, 626 P.2d at 109.

Allowable Surface Pressure: 0 psi Brief Well Summary: (Last BHP measured 3/6/2015) (No new perfs being added) (Based on actual reservoir conditions and water cut of 40% (0.374psi/ft) with an added safety factor of 1000' TVD of oil cap) The Milne Point 1-15 well was drilled as a Schrader Bluff development multi -lateral well that TD'd ran 4-1/2" slotted liners in OB at a depth of 9,050' and in OA at 9,000' in September 2002. The well was initially completed with an ESP. This and subsequent ESPs failed and were replaced in 2008 and 2014. The recent pump failed in February 2015. There is no recent casing pressure test performed and one will be completed during this workover. Due to observed scale issues, a downhole chemical injection line will be run as part of the new completion. No subsidence issues are expected in this well. Notes Regarding Wellbore Condition Current well status is shut in oil producer. No subsidence issue suspected. RWO Obiective: Pull ESP & run 2-7/8" ESP completion with downhole chemical injection. Brief Procedure: 1. MIRU Nordic #3 Rig. 2. Attempt to circulate well with 8.5ppg seawater and monitor well. 3. ND tree, NU 11" BOPE and test to 250psi low/3,OOOpsi high, annular to 250psi low/2,500psi high. a. Notify AOGCC 24hrs in advance to witness test. 4. Contingency: (If the tubing hanger won't pressure test due to either a penetrator leak or the BPV profile is eroded and/or corroded and BPV cannot be set with tree on.) a. Notify Operations Engineer (Hilcorp), Mr. Guy Schwartz (AOGCC) and Mc Jim Regg (AOGCC) via email explaining the wellhead situation prior to performing the rolling test. AOGCC may elect to send an inspector to witness. b. With stack out of the test path, test choke manifold per standard procedure EXHIBIT 5 Page 3 of 13 Well Prognosis Well: MPI -15 iia. wp ANA,.. LL Date:3/20/2015 c. Conduct a rolling test: Test the rams and annular with the pump continuing to pump, (monitor the surface equipment for leaks to ensure that the fluid is going down -hole and not leaking anywhere at surface.) d. Hold a constant pressure on the equipment and monitor the fluid/pump rate into the well. Record the pumping rate and pressure. e. Once the BOP ram and annular tests are completed, test the remainder of the system following the normal test procedure (floor valves, gas detection, etc.) f. Record and report this test with notes in the remarks column that the tubing hanger/BPV profile / penetrator wouldn't hold pressure and rolling test was performed on BOP Equipment and list items, pressures and rates. g. Pull hanger to surface. (Requires tubing cuts as necessary to free tubing). CBU to displace annulus and tubing with kill weight fluid. h. If a rolling test was conducted, remove the old hanger, MU new hanger or test plug to the completion tubing. Re -land hanger (or test plug) in tubing head. Test BOPE per standard procedure. 5. Unseat hanger and pull 2-7/8" ESP completion from 4,312' to surface and lay down same. 6. RIH with tapered cleanout BHA, wash bridges/fill if necessary in OB lateral to +/-9,000'. Contingency: (if unable to gain circulation or solids to surface) a. Circulate well with nitrified fluid, with surfactant and gel sweeps to clear lateral of solids. 7. POOH with tapered cleanout BHA. 8. RIH and set test packer at +/-4,700' (Note: above dual laterals, to test of 7" casing only). 9. Perform a charted casing pressure test to 1,500psi for 30min. Bleed off pressure and POOH with same. 10. MU and RIH with ESP with gas separator and 3/8" chemical injection line on 2-7/8" 8RD EUE L-80 tubing [to be replaced if necessary]. Set ESP at +/-4,200'.

Allowable Surface Pressure: 46 Brief Well Summary: (Last BHP measured 31312015) (No new perfs being added) (Based on actual reservoir conditions and water cut of 33% (0.366psi1ft) with an added safety factor of 1000' TVD of oil cap) �--- The Milne Point J -09A well was redrilled as a Schrader Bluff development well that TD'd at 8,235' and ran 4.5" slotted liner into open hole in December 1999. The well was initially completed with a through tubing ESPCP (Electrical Submersible Progressive Cavity Pump), but failed immediately upon install. This was replaced with an ESP in January 2000. This failed and subsequent ESPs were replaced in 2003 and 2008. The traditional ESP was replaced with a ESPCP in 2013. This recent pump failed February 9, 2015. The last 7"casing test was Performed to 2 OOOpsi on 4/2/2013,. There are minimal observed scale issues, most failures are related to solids production. No subsidence issues are expected in this well. A caliper was run on the upper 1,000' of 7" casing in April 2013. Notes Regarding Wellbore Condition Current well status is shut in oil producer. No subsidence issues suspected. RWO Obiective: Pull ESP, perform cleanout, & run 2-7/8" ESP completion. Brief Procedure: 1. MIRU Nordic #3 Rig. 2. Attempt to circulate well with 8.5ppg seawater and monitor well. 3. ND tree, NU 11" BOPE and test to 250psi low/3,0OOpsi high, annular to 250psi low/2,500psi high. a. Notify AOGCC 24hrs in advance to witness test. 4. Contingency: (If the tubing hanger won't pressure test due to either a penetrator leak or the BPV profile is eroded and/or corroded and BPV cannot be set with tree on.) a. Notify Operations Engineer (Hilcorp), Mr. Guy Schwartz (AOGCC) and Mr. Jim Regg (AOGCC) via email explaining the wellhead situation prior to performing the rolling test. AOGCC may elect to send an inspector to witness. b. With stack out of the test path, test choke manifold per standard procedure EXHIBIT 6 Page 3 of 15 LFllrurp AluAa. LLQ Well Prognosis Well: MPJ -09A Date: 3/23/2015 c. Conduct a rolling test: Test the rams and annular with the pump continuing to pump, (monitor the surface equipment for leaks to ensure that the fluid is going down -hole and not leaking anywhere at surface.) d. Hold a constant pressure on the equipment and monitor the fluid/pump rate into the well. Record the pumping rate and pressure. e. Once the BOP ram and annular tests are completed, test the remainder of the system following the normal test procedure (floor valves, gas detection, etc.) f. Record and report this test with notes in the remarks column that the tubing hanger/BPV profile / penetrator wouldn't hold pressure and rolling test was performed on BOP Equipment and list items, pressures and rates. g. Pull hanger to surface. (Requires tubing cuts as necessary to free tubing). CBU to displace annulus and tubing with kill weight fluid. h. If a rolling test was conducted, remove the old hanger, MU new hanger or test plug to the completion tubing. Re -land hanger (or test plug) in tubing head. Test BOPE per standard procedure. S. Unseat hanger and pull 2-7/8" ESPCP completion from 5,083' to surface and lay down same. 6. RIH with tapered cleanout BHA and circulate well clean to +/-8,200'. POOH with same. 7.

Allowable Surf Pressure: 0 psi (Based on SBHP taken 2/02/2015 and water cut of 54% (0.389psi/ft) with an added safety factor of 1,000' TVD of oil cap) Brief Well Summary: The Milne Point J -01A well was sidetracked as a Schrader Bluff development well that TD'd at a depth of 8,034' and ran a slotted 4-1/2" liner in open hole in December 1999. The well was initially completed with an ESP. This ESP was pulled in 2001, a lateral was drilled & lined with a 2-3/8" pre-drilled/slotted liner, and a new ESP installed. Subsequent ESPs failed and were replaced in 2003, 2011, and 2015. Due to observed scale issues, a downhole chemical injection line was run as part of the new completion in 2015. Solids production is assumed to be the cause of the most recent ESP failure in July 2015. Notes Regarding Wellbore Condition • Casing last tested to 1,500 psi for 30 min down to 3,577' on 3/20/2015.

Allowable Surf Pressure: 177 psi (Based on SBHP taken 11/11/2013 and water cut of 50% (0.385psi/ft) with an added safety factor of 1,000' TVD of oil cap) Brief Well Summary: The Milne Point 1-08A well was redrilled as a Schrader Bluff development well that TD'd at 8,495' and ran a slotted 4-1/2" liner in December 1999. The well was initially completed with an ESP in December 1999. This ESP failed and was replaced in 2007. The recent pump failed June 15, 2015 during a restart, following recent TAPS proration. The most recent casing pressure test performed prior to sidetracking the well was in 1999. A casing pressure test to 1,500 psi was completed in July 2015 during a recent ESP change -out with Nordic #3. No subsidence issues are expected in this well. Notes Regarding Wellbore Condition • Casing last tested to 1,500 psi for 30 min down to 4,700' MD on 7/04/2015. Obiective: The purpose of this work/sundry is to pull the existing failed ESP and run a new ESP. Brief Procedure: WO Rig Procedure: 1. Circulate well with 8.5 ppg seawater down tubing and fill casing. 2. RU crane. Set BPV. ND Tree. NU 11" ROPE. 3. MIRU Hilcorp ASR #1 WO Rig. 4. Test to 250 psi Low/ 3,000 psi High, annular to 250 psi Low/ 2,500 psi High (hold each valve and test for 5 -min). Record accumulator pre -charge pressures and chart tests. a. Notify AOGCC 24 hrs in advance of BOP test. b. Test VBR rams on 2-7/8" test joint. 5. Contingency: (If the tubing hanger won't pressure test due to either a penetrator leak or the BPV profile is eroded and/or corroded and BPV cannot be set with tree on.) a. Notify Operations Engineer (Hilcorp), Mr. Guy Schwartz (AOGCC) and Mr. Jim Regg (AOGCC) via email explaining the wellhead situation prior to performing the rolling test. AOGCC may elect to send an inspector to witness. b.

Conduct a rolling test: Test the rams and annular with the pump continuing to pump, (monitor the surface equipment for leaks to ensure that the fluid is going down -hole and not leaking anywhere at surface.) d. Hold a constant pressure on the equipment and monitor the fluid/pump rate into the well. Record the pumping rate and pressure. e. Once the BOP ram and annular tests are completed, test the remainder of the system following the normal test procedure (floor valves, gas detection, etc.) f. Record and report this test with notes in the remarks column that the tubing hanger/BPV profile / penetrator wouldn't hold pressure and rolling test was performed on BOP Equipment and list items, pressures and rates. g. Pull hanger to surface. (Requires tubing cuts as necessary to free tubing). CBU to displace annulus and tubing with kill weight fluid. 6. if a rolling test was conducted, remove the old hanger, MU new hanger or test plug to the completion tubing.

JOB ACTIVITY AT TIME OF INCIDENT: Three Integrated Well Services Employees lost consciousness at approximately 9:12 am the morning of September 25`h, 2015 while attempting to bleed pressure off the J-08 workstring by casing annulus. 1.) What happened at the time of the accident? Describe the sequence of events prior to, during and immediately after the accident (attach extra page if necessary): See attached timeline for a detailed sequence of the timing of events associated with this incident The ASR rig was rigged up on the well. A nitrified cleanout had been completed in which nitrogen and seawater was circulated down the backside (annulus) with returns taken off the tubing/work string to an exterior flow back tank. One 50 bbl seawater pill had been successfully pumped following the nitrogen treatment. Employees registered unexpected annulus pressure of just over 1,000 psig on a pressure gauge while beginning to pump the second 50 bbl seawater pill. Employees shutdown pumping operations and began to bleed off the pressure through the choke manifold located in the ASR tank trailer; operator 1 and the tool pusher were in the tank trailer manifold 1 EXHIBIT 9 Page 1 of 5 room performing this activity. Returns were directed to a gas buster and interior tank located inside the ASR tank trailer. Readings taken at the choke indicated pressure was initially at 1,100 psi. At that point the tool pusher left the manifold room. Shortly after, Operator 2 went to the manifold room to communicate with Operator 1 since he could not reach him via radio due to the noise level inside the manifold room from the gas flowing through the manifold. Operators 1 and 2 left the manifold room in order to have a conversation outside the room where they could hear each other. Upon leaving Operators 1 and 2 noted an unusual order, acknowledged to each other sensations of dizziness and agreed to report the conditions. Operator 1 returned to the manifold room and waited outside the room on the landing on the opposite side of the driller's console. Operator 2 went to report the conditions to the tool pusher. The tool pusher was informed of the unusual smell in the tank trailer but it is unclear if the symptoms of dizziness were mentioned. Operator 2 and the tool pusher returned to the tank trailer. The tool pusher immediately entered the tank room through the manifold room in order to open a wall hatch in the rear of the tank room to increase ventilation in the room. Operator 1 and 2 waited in the manifold room or on the landing outside the room. After a brief period of time, Operator 2 entered the tank room to check on the tool pusher. He could not see the tool pusher from the door way so he entered the room and stepped up one step into the room. From there he could see the tool pusher slumped in the back corner of the tank room immediately adjacent to the wall hatch. Operator 2 took a deep breath and started across the tank room to render assistance. Operator 2 made it half way and started to be affected. Operator 2 immediately turned around and just managed to exit the tank trailer. It is presumed he became unconscious upon exiting and slumped down the exterior steps. Shortly thereafter (1 minute), Operator 1 entered the tank room to check on Operator 2 and the tool pusher. When entering, Operator 1 did not notice Operator 2 unconscious on the exterior steps. Same as Operator 2, Operator 1 noticed the tool pusher slumped at the far end of the tank room. Although Operator 1 does not remember doing so, it is believed he closed the choke valve before entering the room since the choke valve was discovered closed immediately after the incident. However, no one remembers closing it. Operator 1 made it all the way across the tank room to the tool pusher and managed to unlatch and partially open the wall hatch. He then repositioned the tool pusher against the exterior wall before starting to feel the affects of the oxygen deficient environment. Operator 1 then attempted to exit the tank room but became unconsciousness somewhere near the exterior threshold. Operator 2 (located on the exterior stairs) regained consciousness shortly after, observed Operator 1 uncoinscious in the exterior threshold, and pulled Operator 1 outside. Operator 1 regained consciousness and Operator 2 went to manual shut in the well and then summoned help. Operator 2 met the Wellsite Supervisor exiting the office trailer on the pad. Supervision initiated a emergency radio call for man down. The Integrated Well Services (IWS) owner arrived on site at this time and immediately determined that the tool pusher was located inside the tank trailer near the wall hatch. The IWS owner opened the hatch from the outside and extricated the tool pusher through the wall hatch. Milne Point personnel nearby responded with available rescue equipment in pick-up trucks, fire trucks and the ambulance. Milne Point Emergency Response/Medical were on location within 10 minutes of the call. All personnel were fully revived on location, treated with oxygen, and transported to the clinic for further treatment and evaluation. 2.) What were the employees doing immediately prior to performing the task in which the accident occurred? Bleeding down annulus pressure on J-08 well through a choke manifold. 3.) What object or substance directly harmed the employee/contributed to the event? A low oxygen atmosphere created by the presence of nitrogen. 4.) Please provide any witness statement/ observations available (attach extra page if necessary): Attached. 2 EXHIBIT 9 Page 2 of 5 Driller 1 (131) and Driller 2 (D2) smelled something funny (1) D2 leaves to notify Supervisor (S1) while D1 goes to Rig S1 enters Manifold Room (2) D2 enters Mud Pit (3) and discovers S1 slumped against wall (4) D2 turns back and loses consciousness (5) D1 discovers S1 unconscious and attempts rescue.

Describe any unsafe acts that contributed to the accident: See attached Root Cause Analysis 2.) Describe any unsafe conditions and personal factors that contributed to the accident: See attached Root Cause Analysis. 3.) Describe the fundamental accident cause: The gas buster was not operationally ready for receiving gases bled from the well through the choke manifold. The tank trailer was not adequately walked down and valves aligned properly prior to taking returns to the interior tank trailer tanks. 4.) Was the injury/incident caused by employees' willful misconduct, intoxication or intent to injure self or others, or damage property? If so, please explain: No 5.) Was the incident a result of violation of established safety policies? If so, please explain: No. No violations of safety policies contributed to the incident. 6.) Was adequate personal protective equipment provided for the task being performed? Yes, adequate personal protective equipment was available. Was the employee using the PPE appropriately? If not, please explain: Respiratory hazard of low oxygen atmosphere was not recognized as a possible hazard. 7.) Are changes necessary in the operations and procedures pertaining to the task to prevent this type of incident in the future? Yes If so, please explain: See attached Root Cause Analysis 8.) Please discuss any other policies, personal factors or environmental factors that may have contributed to the hazardous condition or unsafe act: See attached Root Cause Analysis C! EXHIBIT 9 Page 4 of 5 9.) After considering the information gathered above, please summarize main contributing factors that led to the accident: ROOT CAUSE # 1: Rig Set-up Procedure Not Properly Implemented/Equipment Not Operationally Ready: The dump valve on the gas buster was left in open position during well bleed down activities. ROOT CAUSE # 2: STOP WORK Authority/Procedure Implementation Less Than Adequate (LTA: There were four recognizable instances where STOP Work Authority should have been implemented: (1) unexpected registering of pressure on backside/annulus; (2) when Operator 1 and Operator 2 were initially affected by the atmosphere in the tank room after minimal exposure. (3) when Operator 2 observed the tool pusher in a non-responsive state; (4) when Operator 1 saw the tool pusher in a non-responsive state Personnel rushed into finding solutions to emergency situations they did not fully understand instead of implementing STOP Work procedures and emergency action procedures. PART 4: CORRECTIVE ACTIONS 1.) What have you done, or what do you recommend changing or modifying, to prevent the recurrence of a similar accident? How will these changes help prevent the contributing factors in Part 3?: See attached Root Cause Analysis 2.) Would specific training curtail future accidents such as this? If so, what kind of training is needed? If not, why? Please explain. Rig Emergency Action Plan training for all Operators. EH&S REPRESENTATIVE COMPLETING INVESTIGATION: Carl A.

Decision to bleed pressure through the gas buster to the interior tank room tanks was not made by Wellsite Supervisor. 2. 2-1 Improper use of equipment a. Job was not walked down prior to initiating the bleed off of pressure through the gas buster. b. Practice on the rig was to take returns which may contain nitrogen to outside bleed tank, not through gas buster to internal tank room tanks. c. "Open" dump valve on gas buster was not correct operational practice and did not allow the gas buster to operate as designed and vent all gas to the atmosphere outside the tank room. 3. 3-1 Lack of knowledge of hazards present a. First crew member entered tank room assuming there was no risk as no alarms were noted. Explosive atmosphere and H2S sensors do not alarm on N2 or low oxygen. Crew members did not understand the technical capabilities of the atmospheric monitors. 4. 4-1 Improper decision making or lack of judgement a. Wellsite Supervisor and IWS personnel believed the pressure noted when beginning to pump the second 50 bbl water pill was indication of pumping into closed system, against a closed valve, or against a plug. Wellsite Supervisor and IWS personnel did not recognize that a check valve prevented the pressure gauge being monitored from reading annular pressure. The check valve was appropriately placed for the N2 scope of work. However, the pressure indicator was reading pressure between the ASR pump and the check valve (-300 prig ). The check valve was pumped off seat when the pump discharge pressure reached the shut-in casing pressure which was over 1000 psig. b. Crew members ceased pumping activities but did not shutdown the job and reassess the situation when pumping pressure increased rapidly to over 1000 psig. c. Crew members did not associate the noted pressure increase with the nitrogen cleanout pumped earlier. d. Crew members decided to bleed off what was presumed to be trapped pressure due to pumping against a closed valve or plug. e. Crew members continued to bleed off pressure when it became apparent gas was being bled off rather than the expected fluid. EXHIBIT 11 Page 1 of 2 Conditions 5. 5-5 Inadequate warning systems a. Alarm system did not alarm on low oxygen or N2. Crew members were familiar with operation of the alarm system, but did not understand the technical capabilities of the atmospheric monitors. Personal Factors 6. 2-1 Fatigue a. Wellsite supervisor was operating with minimal sleep in previous 40 hours which may have resulted in delayed decision making and lack of direct supervision of activities. Job Factors 7. 15-6 Inadequate communication methods a. Operator 2 (in driller's console) or anyone else could not communicate with Operator 1 (in tank module manifold room) due to noise in manifold room. CLC CORRECTIVE ACTIONS 1. Have replaced Wellsite Supervisor. We will additionally now have a day and night supervisor for future well work. (1 and 6a.) 2. All Integrated Well Services employees onsite have been retrained in the proper use of the gas buster.(2) 3. Prior to any change in well operations, the job will be discussed and all lines walked down. (2a and 2c) 4. All future nitrogen job set ups will include hardline from both the annulus and work string to the external flow back tank. (2b) 5. The dump valve has been closed and locked out and will only be used for cleanout of the gas buster or other operational purposes (2c) 6. All onsite personnel have and will be trained in the technical capabilities of alarm system. (3a and 5a) 7. Stop work authority has been reviewed, emphasizing the importance of stopping all work when conditions change.(4a, b, c and d) 8.

EXHIBIT 11 Page 2 of 2 .Hileorp Alaska, LLC Milne Point Automated Service Rig 1 (ASR 1) Incident Safety - Sharingtheexperience Lessons Learned Summary Incident: ASR 1 Oxygen Deficient Atmosphere Type of Incident: Recordable Location: Milne Point, North Slope, Alaska Date: 25 September 2015. What happened? Three Integrated Well Services (IWS) ASR 1 crew members lost consciousness at approximately 0912 hrs on 25 September 2015 while attempting to bleed pressure off the J-08 workstring by casing annulus. What Went Wrong? 1) Valves were not properly aligned to allow annulus pressure readings. The unexpected pressure bump attributed to a block condition was actually the result of pressuring up against and opening a check valve thereby exposing the pressure gauge to actual annular pressure. 2) Valve alignment and flow path not verified through system resulting in gas buster valve being left open during pressure bleed down. The ASR 1 crew had completed a nitrified cleanout in which 3) Job was not stopped and changed conditions assessed when nitrogen and seawater was circulated down the backside with pressure bleed down operation yielded gas rather than the returns taken off the tubing string to an exterior flowback tank. expected liquid. The ASR 1 crew successfully pumped one 50 bbl seawater pill 4) Employees attempted rescue instead of sounding alarm. following the nitrogen treatment. On the second seawater pill they encountered unexpected pressure on 1 Tthe backside after pumping4.1 bbls. The crew attributed this to a block 10,1R flow condition. The IWS rig crew lined up' the choke manifold to bleed the pressure to the ASR 1 tank module interior tanks via the module's gas buster. They expected to bleed off minimal fluids but instead received nitrogen gas returns. The dump , valve on the gas buster was in the open position which allowed the nitrogen to vent into the tank module `t for -15 minutes instead of exiting the stack of the gas buster. Nitrogen displaced oxygen within the tank module. The module HVAC system was operating as designed at six air changes an hour but was overwhelmed by the amount of nitrogen entering the room through the gas buster dump valve. The first IWS employee entered the tank module and lost consciousness while attempting to open a rear wall hatch to increase ventilation. The second and third IWS employees were overcome by the oxygen deficient environment while attempting to extricate the first employee, but were able to exit the room before losing consciounsess. When the second and third IWS employees regained consciousness, they immediately shut in the well and activated emergency response. Another IWS crew member opened the rear wall hatch and retrieved the first IWS employee. Milne emergency response were on scene within minutes of receiving the call. All personnel were administered oxygen and recovered fully. 5) Atmospheric hazard was not recognized. The crew did not realize the installed atmospheric alarms would only detect H2S and flammable vapors. They were not designed to detect N2 or low oxygen. In the absence of the alarms, they assumed the atmosphere was safe. 6) Radio comms was difficult in a high noise area (noise due to nitrogen gas flowing through choke manifold). What Went Well? 1) Third IWS employee shut manual choke valve prior to entering room. 2) Room HVAC operated as designed and provided sufficient air changes to prevent a fatality. 3) Milne emergency response was immediate and effective. Learningsto share 1) Walk down valves and lines as part of JSA and crew changes. 2) Immediately stop work and reassess when conditions change or unexpected events are encountered. 3) Train all personnel not only in the operation, but also in the technical capabilities of the installed safety systems (e.g., atmospheric monitors). 4) Use appropriate communication devices in high noise areas. 5) Identify, mitigate and communicate potential hazards prior to working with nitrogen.

EXHIBIT 19 Page 2 of 2 From: Bo York Sent: Monday, November 30, 2015 10:36 AM To: Alaska NS - Milne - Field Foreman; Cc: Subject: Compliance with Well Work Sundry Procedures - Coil Tubing, ASR, Nordic, Doyon All - We have had issues in the past 8 months with following AOGCC regulations and explicitly following the procedures detailed in our AOGCC approved sundries. We must do better. If we do not, it will impact our ability to continue to operate and develop our fields in Alaska and our ability to continue to grow. In order to meet our goal I drafted the following steps to ensure we develop better procedures and ensure we strictly implement the procedures approved by AOGCC via the sundry process. Our Goal: Utilize the resources and experience in our team to execute well work safely and efficiently, within AOGCC regulations and requirements. Prior to Initiating Well Work: 1. Operations engineer responsible for the well work will develop the procedure with adequate detail to ensure field execution may occur within the steps included in the procedure and all AOGCC requirements are addressed. 2. Regulatory Tech (Tom Fouts) will generate Form 10-403 to accompany the procedure. 3. Operations engineer that developed the procedure will review the procedure with the Field Foremen and Well Site Manager that will be performing the work. Intent is to obtain their comments and input on the steps and to leverage their 20+ years of performing well work. 4. Operations engineer will provide the reviewed procedure and Form 10-403 to the operations manager for review and schedule a peer review meeting with the other operations engineers in town. Typically this meeting will occur on Friday after the AFE review meeting but can be scheduled at any time. Field Foreman and WSMs should also be invited to this meeting. 5. After the changes are incoroporated from the peer review, the operations engineer will initial the Form 10-403 and the operations manager will sign it. 6. The Reg Tech will submit the 10-403, procedure, and all attachments to AOGCC two weeks prior to performing the work. 7. The Reg Tech will track the submittal and let the operations engineer know once approval is received. Work Execution: 1. The operations engineer and WSM are responsible for executing the work. 2. Prior to starting the work, a kick off meeting will be held by the WSM with the rig crew. The entire procedure will be walked through and any special safety considerations will be addressed. The rig crew should understand the procedure and the approved steps. This meeting will be documented on a safety meeting sign in sheet. 3. ANY deviation from the approved procedures will be discussed with the operations engineer and in turn the AOGCC representative. Work will not proceed until the deviation is approved by AOGCC. EXHIBIT 20 Page 1 of 2 4. ANY step or detail not included in the approved procedure but is discovered during well work activities and needs to be added will be discussed with the operations engineer and in turn the AOGCC representative. Work will not proceed until the addition is approved by AOGCC 5. 1 repeat this .... If the step is not included in the approved procedure or if a detail is added/changed, work will stop until the operations engineer notifies the AOGCC and the change/added step is approved. The operations engineer may get verbal approval but ALWAYS followed up with written confirmation via email. This process will be strictly enforced and I need everyone's help and cooperation to ensure we do not continue to have communication problems with AOGCC. Following these steps will lead to better quality procedures, safer operations, and a better run operations team. Go team.

OTH-15-025; OTH-15-029; OTH-15-030; and OTH-15-031 Notices of Proposed Enforcement Action Dear Chair Foerster, Thank you for your letter dated November 23, 2015. We continue to request an informal review as originally proposed. We want to make sure that you know we take these matters very seriously. Instead of just reviewing this matter internally, we engaged an outside party to be certain that a full and independent investigation of this matter would be conducted. We informed you of Mr. Jamieson's efforts simply to let you know how we are proceeding with the investigation. He has already begun interviewing witnesses and collecting and reviewing documents, and we are facilitating his review by providing him access to all personnel and relevant documents. There were many participants in these events, and the volume of written material to review is substantial. In addition, the notices set out prior events which the Commission has stated are similar to the events cited in the notices. All of these events are subject to investigation. Of course, this increases the time it will take to adequately prepare for an informal review. And now the Holidays are upon us, and several key individuals will be taking leave over the next five weeks, decreasing the pace at which the investigation can be completed. Accordingly, we propose that the informal review occur in mid-February, with our written submission to be due January 29, 2016. We look forward to the opportunity to confer on the matters in an informal setting, as we believe that will be the best forum for an open and full discussion and exchange of information and thoughts. We believe this will allow the Commission to frame a well-informed proposed order.

Although Hilcorp's letter requests informal review, by virtue of your reference to retaining counsel and presenting the results of your lawyer's internal investigation in "proceedings," the letter also appears to contemplate a hearing. The AOGCC's informal review process is intended to afford an operator the opportunity to meet with AOGCC staff in an effort to resolve pending enforcement actions. There is no formal record kept of the review and the review does not generally involve the presence of counsel, either for the AOGCC or the operator. Consequently, if Hilcorp desires to proceed by having counsel present the results of his review and investigation, the matter should be set for public hearing. The AOGCC has no objection to addressing all pending enforcement actions at a single hearing. Please advise the AOGCC as to how Hilcorp prefers to proceed. Sincerely, Cathy .

The Notices express concerns that Hilcorp takes very seriously as part of our commitment to good oilfield practices and safe operations. We will fully address the Commission's concerns. Our goal remains full compliance with the AOGCC's regulations and permits. Hilcorp has retained the services of Brewster Jamieson of Lane Powell, LLC, to represent us in connection with the Notices. We have asked him to conduct a thorough review of the evidence and circumstances that led to the issuance of the Notices, and to present the results of that investigation to the Commission and staff in an informal review. He will be contacting the AOGCC staff in due course with suggestions of timing and potential consolidation of some or all of the Notices in order to address all of the Commission's concerns in a single proceeding. Pursuant to 20 AAC 25.535(c), Hilcorp requests an informal review of the Notices, the opportunity to submit written documentation prior to that informal review, and to make both written and oral statements to the Commission and staff at the informal review. Hilcorp is committed to engaging in this process fully and cooperatively, and we consider full compliance with the AOGCC regulations and permits a priority of the highest order.

Nature of the Apparent Violation or Noncompliance (20 AAC 25.535(b)(1)). Hilcorp has violated the provisions of 20 AAC 25.507 ("Change of an approved program") while performing workover operations with Automated Service Rig #1 (ASRI) at Milne Point Unit (MPU) well J -O IA. Basis for Finding the Violation or Noncompliance (20 AAC 25.535(b)(2)). Hilcorp ASRI commenced workover operations at MPU J -01A on August 6, 2015. Sundry approval 315-459 dated July 30, 2015 authorized Hilcorp to pull a failed electric submersible pump (ESP) and rerun a new ESP completion. As part of the workover procedure, a fill cleanout step was included prior to running the new ESP and 2 -7/8 -inch production tubing. Daily reports for August 7-10, 2015 show the following well work was completed in preparation for the fill cleanout: ESP completion had been removed, a tapered fill cleanout string was run in the well to 4409 feet measured depth, and equipment was rigged up to perform the fill cleanout. Hilcorp references using lease water for circulating as part of the fill cleanout operation, and reports the fill cleanout pumping operations began August 10, 2015. The Report of Sundry Well Operations Docket No. OTH-15-030 Notice of Proposed Enforcement November 16, 2015 Page 2 of 4 for this workover on MPU J-0IA reveals that Hilcorp used nitrogen for the well cleanout prior to running the new ESP completion. Per 20 AAC 25.507 an operator may not undertake a change to an approved program or activity without AOGCC approval. Paragraph (a) of 20 AAC 25.507 further describes the information that must be submitted to AOGCC. To make a change, the well's current condition and proposed change must be provided to AOGCC for review and approval. Sundry 315-459 did not authorize the use of nitrogen for a fill cleanout of MPU J -O IA. As part of AOGCC's information gathering related to the MPU J -08A incident (release of nitrogen injuring three rig workers), Hilcorp states that the use of nitrogen for a fill cleanout is a contingent plan executed only if well conditions warrant.' A contingent plan constitutes a change to an approved permit requiring AOGCC approval prior to implementation. This violation is neither isolated nor innocent and is emblematic of ongoing compliance problems with Hilcorp rig workover operations. Hilcorp's compliance history in conducting hydrocarbon development activities in Alaska includes ongoing failures to obtain necessary approvals; failures to install, maintain, and test required well control safety systems; failures to perform required tests; and use of equipment that is unsuitable for the operating environment. Recent examples of noncompliant activities include: 1) Rig Operations with Failed Gas Detection System — On September 4, 2015 AOGCC sent a notice of investigation to Hilcorp questioning the decision to pull the tubing hanger off its seat in MPU F-96. Activities leading up to this were marked by operational problems and system faults in the gas detection equipment, culminating in the system failing to operate properly during performance testing of the blowout prevention equipment on August 4, 2015. Hilcorp notified AOGCC and stated the rig — Hilcorp ASRI — would not pull the completion until the gas system was operational. Less than one hour after providing that notice to AOGCC, Hilcorp made a unilateral decision to test if it was possible for ASRI to pull the completion. Hilcorp's unapproved experiment successfully lifted the tubing hanger off seat and confirmed the rig's inability to pull the completion to surface in violation of AOGCC regulations (operating without approval; compromising a barrier that is in place to prevent the release of wellbore fluids from the well). 2) Other Hilcorp Rig Workovers Employing Nitrogen Well Cleanouts — A review of well workovers performed at MPU by Hilcorp-operated rigs reveal two other wells that had fill cleanout operations using nitrogen without AOGCC approval. In the case of MPU J- 0 8A2 the release of nitrogen into an enclosed space resulted in injury to three rig workers. 3) Failure to Report Use of Blowout Prevention Equipment — A rig workover performed with Nordic Rig 3 in early May 2015 encountered the well flowing after running a packer in MPU 1-03 (PTD 1900920). The Weekly Operations Summary reports that the well was shut in and well pressures were monitored while waiting on additional fluid to kill the well. No report was filed with AOGCC describing the use of blowout prevention equipment to prevent the flow of fluids from the well. Hilcorp did not test the blowout Hilcorp correspondence dated October 9, 2015 (reference AOGCC Docket 15-025) 2 AOGCC Docket 15-025; Notice of Proposed Enforcement Action dated November 12, 2015 Docket No. OTH-15-030 Notice of Proposed Enforcement November 16, 2015 Page 3 of 4 prevention equipment used for well control prior to reentering MPU I-03 to run the ESP completion.3 The disregard for regulatory compliance is endemic to Hilcorp's approach to its Alaska operations and virtually assured the occurrence of these noncompliances. Hilcorp's conduct is inexcusable.4 Proposed Action (20 AAC 25.535(b)(3)). For violating 20 AAC 25.507 the AOGCC intends to impose a civil penalty on Hilcorp under AS 31.05.150(a) in the amount of $75,000 for changing the work procedure in Sundry approval 315- 459 — performing the cleanout of MPU J -01A using an unapproved contingent plan (nitrogen). Hilcorp's ongoing history of performing work in violation of approved permits or management - of -change protocols, its history of compliance issues and the need to deter are additional factors in the AOGCC's analysis. 5 In addition to the imposed civil penalty, AOGCC intends to require Hilcorp to provide - a detailed description and example of its regulatory compliance tracking program; - written management of change procedures that correct the violations noted in this enforcement action; - a detailed written explanation that describes how Hilcorp intends to prevent recurrence of this violation. Rights and Liabilities (20 AAC 25.535(b)(4)) Within 15 days after receipt of this notification — unless the AOGCC, in its discretion, grants an extension for good cause shown — Hilcorp may file with the AOGCC a written response that concurs in whole or in part with the proposed action described herein, requests informal review, or requests a hearing under 20 AAC 25.540. If a timely response is not filed, the proposed action will be deemed accepted by default. If informal review is requested, the AOGCC will provide Hilcorp an opportunity to submit documentary material and make a written or oral statement. If Hilcorp disagrees with the AOGCC's proposed decision or order after that review, it may file a written request for a hearing within 10 days after the proposed decision or order is issued. If such a request is not filed within that 10 -day period, the proposed decision or order will become final on the l lt" day after it was issued. If such a request is timely filed, the AOGCC will hold its decision in abeyance and schedule a hearing. If Hilcorp does not concur in the proposed action described herein, and the AOGCC finds that Hilcorp violated a provision of AS 31.05, 20 AAC 25, or an AOGCC order, permit or other approval, then the AOGCC may take any action authorized by the applicable law including ordering one or more of the following: (i) corrective action; (ii) suspension or revocation of a permit or other approval; and (iii) imposition of penalties under AS 31.05.150. In taking action '20 AAC 25.285(1)(2) and (f)(8) 4 Other Order 80 5 AS 31.05.150(g) requires AOGCC to consider nine criteria in setting the amount of a civil penalty. Docket No. OTH-15-030 Notice of Proposed Enforcement November 16, 2015 Page 4 of 4 after an informal review or hearing, the AOGCC is not limited to ordering the proposed action described herein, as long as Hilcorp received reasonable notice and opportunity to be heard with respect to the AOGCC's action. Any action described herein or taken after an informal review or hearing does not limit the action the AOGCC may take under AS 31.05.160.
