Notice of Public Hearing

Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission
Re: The application of the North Slope Borough for exception to
20 AAC 25.055 for Walakpa #5 well.
The North Slope Borough by letter dated December 19, 1990
has requested an exception to the provisions of 20 AAC 25.055.
The exception would allow drilling the Walakpa #5 well from a
surface location closer than 1500 feet from the boundary of a
drilling unit. The proposed location is 13' from the south line,
700' from the east line, Section 17, T20N, R19W, Umiat Meridian.
A person who may be harmed if the requested order is issued
may file a written protest prior to 4:00 pm January 11, 1991 with
the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, 3001 Porcupine
Drive, Anchorage, Alaska 99501, and request a hearing on the
matter. If the protest is timely filed, and raises a substantial
and material issue crucial to the Commission's determination, a
hearing on the matter will be held at the above address at
9:00 am January 29, 1991 in conformance with 20 AAC 25.540. If a
hearing is to be held, interested parties may confirm this by
calling the Commission's office, (907) 279-1433 after January 11,
1991. If no proper protest is filed, the Commission will consid-
er the issuance of the order without a hearing.

Re' Walakpa Well Spacing
Gentlemen'
The North Slope Borough is applying for exception to the spacing
provisions as outlined under 20AAC25.055 for the Walakpa $5 well. The
proposed well location for the subject well is 13' FSL, 700' FEL,
SE/4-SE/4 Sec. 17, T20N,R19W in order to accomodate correlation with
seizmic lines. Currently there is one plugged and abandoned well and
one 'temporarily abandoned well in the Walakpa Field. The North Slope
Borough owns the minerals withi'n a minimum of a two mile radius of the
proposed wells, 'thus correlative rights are not an issue.
If you have any questions or we can be of further assistance,
please feel free to contact this office.
Sincerely,
John A. Fanto
Allen & Crouch,
Petroleum Engineers
