This report covers the period January 1 through December 31, 2009. The report is organized according to the outline provided in Rule 12 of the conservation order. A shut-in well list addressing 20 AAC 25.115 has been included in the Endicott Oil Pool Reservoir Surveillance Report submitted in a separate filing. BP reserves the right to alter the content of the analyses contained in this report at any time based upon the most recent surveillance information obtained. Should you have any questions please contact John Garing (564-5167) or Travis Peltier (564- 4511). S' cerely, David Szabo cc: Kevin Banks, DNR R. L.

Future Development Plans K A) Progress of Enhanced Recovery Project implementation and Reservoir Management summary BPXA drilled two wells into the Eider reservoir: 2-56A/EI 01 ("Eider 1 ") and 2- 30A/EI 02 ("Eider 2"). The Eider 2 well was shut in May 1999 at the end of the approved test period, and the Eider 1 well was shut in September 1999. BPXA converted the Eider 1 well to water injection in June 2000 after receiving the proper Endicott partner approval. Production from Eider 2 well recommenced in June 2000 with the start of water injection. Over the next couple of years, static bottomhole pressure ("SBHP") measurements were obtained in both Eider wells to determine the extent of pressure support. With SBHP's rising in the Eider 1 well and falling in the Eider 2 well, there was a clear indication that the producer / injector pair were not in pressure communication with one another. BPXA converted the Eider 1 well back to production in July 2004 and subsequently perforated shallower sands in both wells. The Eider 2 well was sidetracked (2-30B/ME-01) in 2009 to the Minke target, a Sag River/Ivishak formation satellite prospect. Producer 2-56A/E101 was brought online once in 2009 to conduct a well test which indicated that the production characteristics of the well had not changed. (1 bopd, watercut — 100%). Otherwise this well was not online in 2009 due to its uncompetitive watercut. There were 5 days of production from the Ivishak formation for the time period of January 2009 through December 2009, with 5 bbls oil, 5 mscf of gas and 19.15 mstb water. Cumulative production through December 2009 was 2.75 mmstb oil, 26.52 bscf gas, and 5.52 mmstb water. There was no injection into the Ivishak formation for the time period of January 2009 through December 2009. Cumulative injection through December 2009 was 4.33 mmstb water. All produced fluids have been processed through the Endicott facility as stipulated under conditions within the Endicott Facility Sharing Agreement. Produced gas, other than that used for fuel, has been re -injected into the Endicott reservoir gas cap. 3 B) Voidage Balance by Month of Produced Fluids and Injected Fluids and Cumulative status Eider M116111 IN ...l..�a.._s OMMLWOMOMMOMMI OMM MMMMMMMM, OMMM MMOMMMI nmmm�wmmmwml MMMMwOT",=_wMMM1 11 C) Analysis of reservoir pressure surveys within the pool One pressure survey was complete! in January 2009 in 2-30A/E102.

F) Future Development Plans Reservoir characterization work on the Eider reservoir will continue. Upon identification of any potential targets, BPXA will evaluate sidetracking existing wells in order to increase recovery from the Eider reservoir. The potential to redeploy the remaining Eider well to targets outside the Eider Participating Area will also be considered. 7
