There were no protests to the application. FINDING: The Kenai Deep Unit No. 6 well has been drilled to 11,095 feet measured depth in the unsuccessful search for commercial quantities of gas in the Beluga and Tyonek Formations but commercial quantities of gas exist in Pools 3 and 4 of the Sterling Formation, both defined gas pools. CONCLUSION: The requested exception to Rule 2 of Conservation Order No. 82 for the subject well will not affect the ultimate recovery of gas in Pool 3 or Pool 4 in the Kenai Gas Field and correlative rights are adequately protected in the Kenai Unit. NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED THAT: The Kenai Deep Unit No. 6 well may be completed in and produced from the Kenai Sterling Gas Pool 3 and the Kenai Sterling Gas Pool 4.

Alaska Oil & Gas Conservation Com~issJ~o~7~ I 3001 Porcupine Drive Anchorage, Alaska 99501 Attention: Mr. Hoyle Hamilton KENAI GAS FIELD Kenai Unit Application for Exception to Conservation Order #82, KDU-#6 Gentlemen: Union Oil Company of California, operator for the Kenai Unit has drilled the subject well to the primary objectives in the Beluga and Tyonek Formations. Testing has shown that there is no commercial gas production in these formations at this location. Testing in the Sterling formation Pool 3 and 4 has indicated commercial capability. Therefore, to maintain deliverability from the Kenai Gas Field and in the interest of conservation, application for exception to Rule #2, Conservation Order No. 82 is hereby requested, to allow the completion in and production from Pools 3 and 4 of the Sterling Formation. Such completion would be approximately 2,450 feet from the nearest Pool 3 and 2,600 feet from the nearest Pool 4 production zones both within the KU-11-6 Well as indicated on the attached plat. Well pressure data on existing Kenai Gas Wells, indicate that ultimate recovery will not be affected by this well spacing.
