The proposed well location for the subject well is 972' FNL, 1522' FEL, SW/4-SE/4 Sec. 28, T20N,R19W in order to accomodate correla:tion 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 within 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. Fan'to Allen. & Crouch, Petroleum Engineers JAF/gd
