Box 7?9 Anchorage, Alaska May 7, 1963 File: AEP- 229-WF Re: Spacing Exemption, Middie Ground Shoal No. 2 well. Dept. of Natural Resources Div. of Mines and Minerals 329 Second Avenue Anchorage, Alaska Attn: Thomas Marshall, Jr. Dear Sir: Reference is to arilling permit No. 63-8 approved March ].3, 1963 for Middle Ground Shoal No. 2 well. Attached please find two copies of well survey plats show- ing the location to be 345.4 ft. west of the east line and 1866.8 ft. south of the north line of Section 19, T 9 N, R 12 W, Seward Meridian. This location differs slightly from the tentative ].ocation given on the drilling permit application. An exemption is requested to the 500 foot governmental quarter section boundary offset provision of Section 2061.1 of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Regulations. The drilling platform for this well must be set in a specific depth of water. The final location was dictated by water depths in the area. The platform has been set with four pilings driven to hold it in place. The final survey was not conducted until the platform was set on location. It is not practical to relocate the platform. New materials would have to be obtained for this purpose, and heavy construction equipment returned t° the area. The costs involved would be exorbitant. The following information is submitted in support of our request: 1. A statement concerning ownership of lands within a one mile radius of the well showing that the Atlantic Refining Company is the only other lessee within this area. Page Two 2. Survey plat in quadruplicate, scale 1 inch = 1 mile, showing well location and ownership of acreage within a one mile radius of the well. 3. Water depth contour map, scale i inch = 300 ft., drawn from soundings taken during well location surveys. 4. An affidavit, in quadruplicate, executed by the undersigned, verifying that the information supporting the requested exemption is correct. It is respectfully requested that the location as described herein be approved for reasons stated and if production is obtained, production regulations will not be imposed due to the boundary location. A revised Form P-l, Application to Drill, is attached showing the final surveyed location. Very truly yours, A. E. Piper District Superintendent pmc:pmf attach..
