The subject well, located 3600 FNL and 500 FWL, Section 6, TllN, RllW, S.M., will be about 2571 feet from the Mobil Oil Corporation #1 Moquawkie well. 3. There are no other parties affected by this request. 4.

Marshall Petroleum Supervisor State of Alaska Division of Mines & Minerals 3001 Porcupine Drive Anchorage, Alaska RECEIVED ~0~ Dear Mr. Marshall: We are enclosing in triplicate an Application for Permit to Drill to cover the drilling of our proposed Moquawkie No. 2 Well. Also enclosed is our Draft No. 56180 in the amount of $50.00 to cover the filing fee. As set forth in the application, this well is planned to be a 12,000'+ Hemlock formation test and the proposed location is within the spacing pattern for an exploratory well. However, in anticipation of the possibility that the well may result in finding no production in the deeper objectives but may be capable of being plugged back and completed as a Moquawkie Gas Field well, we hereby request that a spacing exception be granted at this time which would allow for a gas completion at this location. The plat attached to the application sets forth the leaseholders in the sections adjoining the well location, and we will furnish copies of this request to all such adjoining leaseholders. As we are proceeding with plans.to commence drilling the p~oposed well in the near future, your handling of this application as soon as possible is requested. Sincerely, RAG/pjc Enclosures /.
