IT APPEARING THAT: Docket Number: CO -17-015 Conservation Order 738 Cosmopolitan Unit Hansen Undefined Oil Pool Hansen H -16 -L1 -STI Oil Development Well Branch Kenai Borough, Alaska February 8, 2018 By letter dated July 14, 2017, B1ueCrest Alaska Operating LLC (B1ueCrest) requested an exception to the spacing requirements of 20 AAC 25.055 to drill the Hansen H -16 -Ll -STI development oil well branch within the same governmental quarter sections as development oil wells Hansen H-14 and Hansen H-16 and development oil well branch Hansen IALI, which are, or may be capable of, producing from the same pool. 2. Pursuant to 20 AAC 25.540, the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) tentatively scheduled a public hearing for September 14, 2017. On July 18, 2017, the AOGCC published notice of the opportunity for that hearing on the State of Alaska's Online Public Notice website and on the AOGCC's website, electronically transmitted the notice to all persons on the AOGCC's email distribution list, and mailed printed copies of the notice to all persons on the AOGCC's mailing distribution list. On July 19, 2017, the AOGCC published the notice in the ALASKA DISPATCH NEWS. Pursuant to 20 AAC 25.055(d)(1), B1ueCrest sent by certified mail notice of the application to all owners, landowners, and operators of all properties within 1,000 feet of the proposed Hansen H-16-L1-ST1 development well branch, i.e., the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management and the State of Alaska. B1ueCrest provided the AOGCC the notice, addresses to which the notices were delivered, and Certified Mail receipts. 4. No comments or request for hearing were received regarding BlueCrest's application. 5. The tentatively scheduled public hearing was vacated on August 7, 2017. 6. B1ueCrest's application and supplemental correspondence provided sufficient information upon which to make an informed decision. FINDINGS: 1. BlueCrest is the operator and sole working interest owner of the Cosmopolitan Unit, which is located within the Cook Inlet, Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska. 2. The proposed Hansen H -16 -LI -STI will be a horizontal development oil well branch drilled from an onshore surface location of 2329 feet from the south line and 1524 feet from the east line of Section 2, Township 4 South, Range 15 West, Seward Meridian (S.M.) to an offshore bottom -hole location of 441 feet from the south line and 599 feet from the east line of Section 29, Township 3 South, Range 15 West, S.M. CO 738 February 8, 2018 Page 2 of 3 3. The surface location for the proposed Hansen H -16 -Ll -STI lies on private property. The top -of -productive -interval and bottom -hole locations will lie within State of Alaska lease ADL 384403. 4. Hansen H-16-Ll-ST1 will target Tertiary -aged Starichkof (lower Tyonek) and/or Hemlock reservoirs within the Hansen Undefined Oil Pool. 5. Hansen H -16 -L1 -STI will be located within the same governmental quarter section as development oil wells Hansen IA, Hansen H-14, and Hansen H-16 and development oil well branches Hansen lA-Ll, Hansen H -14-L1, and Hansen H -16-L1. Hansen H -16 -L1 - STI will be located within 1,000 feet of development oil well Hansen IA and development oil well branch Hansen lA-L. 6. Hansen IA, Hansen lA-L1, Hansen H-14, Hansen 14-L1, Hansen H-16 and Hansen H -16 - Ll are, or may be capable of, producing from the Hansen Undefined Oil Pool. 7. The well path and bottom -hole location for Hansen H -16 -Ll -STI were chosen based on reservoir mapping and modeling results. Reservoir modeling demonstrates that 800 feet is an optimum well spacing between parallel, extended -reach producers and injectors to maximize oil recovery from the Cosmopolitan Field, and that wells and lateral well branches drilled across the structure are the most effective means of draining the Hansen Undefined Oil Pool. Hansen H -16 -Ll -STI will be drilled parallel to the maximum stress direction in the Cosmopolitan Field to optimize wellbore stability. 8. Optimal well spacing, use of wells and lateral well branches, and drilling in a direction to optimize wellbore stability will ensure greater ultimate recovery by maximizing the amount of wellbore open to the reservoirs and extracting oil that cannot be efficiently produced by existing wells or by wells and well branches drilled in accordance with the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3). CONCLUSIONS: 1. An exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) is necessary to allow the drilling, completion, testing, and regular production of the Hansen H-16-Ll-ST1 development oil well branch. 2. Granting an exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) for the Hansen H -16 -Ll -STI well branch will not result in waste or jeopardize correlative rights of adjoining or nearby owners. NOW THEREFORE IT IS ORDERED: The AOGCC grants B1ueCrest's July 14, 2017, application for an exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) to allow drilling, completion, testing, and regular production of the Hansen H -16 -L1 -STI development oil well branch within the Hansen Undefined Oil Pool. BlueCrest may proceed as long as it complies with all applicable laws, and all other legal requirements. DONE at Anchorage, Alaska and dated February 8, 2018. Hollis S.

As you can imagine, things around here have been a little hectic. Reservoir modeling has shown that the optimum spacing to maximize oil recovery from the Cosmopolitan field is 800' between producers and injectors. Modeling has further shown that dual laterals across the structure are the most effective means of draining the reservoir which has vertical thickness of over 600' above the oil/water contact at the crest of the structure. From a wellbore stability standpoint, the optimum direction to drill the wells is parallel to maximum stress which, in the Cosmopolitan field, is an azimuth of 303°. The combination of optimal spacing and dual laterals for maximum recovery, along with optimal direction for wellbore stability, creates a situation where we will have more than a single wellbore within a % section. In lieu of pool rules that would allow this unique and field specific spacing, BlueCrest Energy is requesting a spacing exception. Please let me know if you have any further questions or further explanation is required.
