RE: Duck Island Unit, Eider Oil Pool Annual Reservoir Surveillance Report
Dear Mr. Seamount:
BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc., as operator of the Duck Island Unit, hereby submits the attached
Annual Reservoir Surveillance Report in accordance with the requirements of Conservation
Order 449. 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

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.

D) Results and Analysis of Production and Injection Log surveys, tracer
surveys and observation well surveys
No production, injection logging or tracer surveys were performed during 2009 on
wells in the Eider Pool
E) Review of pool production allocation factors and issues over the prior
year
The allocation factor for Eider well has been set at 1.0 when the wells are
producing.
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.
