CURTIS JOINT INTEREST Sm'EmNTENDENT S. B. RICHARDS Re: Application for an Order Permitting A Location Exception to Rule 2061.1 for Granite Point B 17587 Well No. 4 Mr. Thomas R. Marshall (2) State Petroleum Supervisor Division of Mines and Minerals 3001 Porcupine Drive Anchorage, Alaska 99501 Dear Sir: Pan American Petroleum Corporation on behalf of itself, Phillips Petroleum Company, Sinclair Oil & Gas Company, and Skelly Oil Company, hereby applies for an exception to Rule 2061.1 of the Oil and Gas Conservation Regulations which will permit the completion of Granite Point B 17587 Well No. 4 at a subsurface location nearer than 500 feet to the boundary line of the tract upon which it is completed. In support of its Application, Pan American states that this well was directionally drilled from its fixed platform, the Granite Point "B" platform, located 2000' FSL, 2000' FWL Section 31, TllN-RllW, S.M. From information obtained from the drilling of Granite Point ADL 17587 Well No. 3, and from the drilling of the well for which this exception is requested, it is believed that Granite Point ADL 17587 Well No. 4 may have encountered formations productive of oil nearer than 500 feet to the boundary line between Lease ADL 18742 and Lease ADL 17587. These productive intervals were encountered in both wells at subsurface depths substantially less than were originally anticipated based upon the limited geological information available at the time. For this reason, the productive intervals were encountered in the well bore at a location nearer to the lease line than originally anticipated. RECEIV[D DIVl~iOi',,t VF MINES & ANCHORAGE Mr. Thomas R. Marshall February 8, 1967 Page 2 ADL 17587 upon which the well is completed and ADL 18742 immedia- tely south of it are owned by Pan American Petroleum Corporation, Phillips Petroleum Company, Sinclair Oil & Gas Company and Skelly Oil Company in the proportions of 1/4 each. The royalty under both tracts is owned by the State of Alaska. The royalty rate is the same under each lease. We propose to test intervals, selected from well logs yet to be run, which may be located nearer than 500 feet to the boundary line and to complete the well for production in each such interval which is found to be productive. There is attached hereto as Exhibit A a plat drawn to a scale of not smaller than one inch equalling 2640 feet, accurately showing to scale Lease ADL 17587, the property for'which the exception is sought and accurately show- ing to scale all other completed and drilling wells on Lease ADL 17587 and ac- curately showing to scale all adjoining surrounding properties and wells. The applicants herein are the lessees of the tract upon which the well is to be completed and the lessees of all lands adjacent to such tracts, and are therefore, the only persons to whom notice of the filing of this Application is required to be given under the provisions of Rule 2061.4. Since there are no affected parties other than Pan American and its joint interest owners, we request that this Application be granted without hearing. Yours very truly, s. B. ai n rds
