River Unit 3F-19A Production well. IT APPEARING THAT: ) Conservation Order No. 514 ) ) Kuparuk River Field ) Kuparuk River Unit ) Kuparuk River Oil Pool ) ) Kuparuk River Unit We1l3F-19A ) ) March 5, 2004 1. ConocoPhillips Alaska, Inc. ("CP AI"), by letter dated January 16, 2004 and received by the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission ("Commission") that same day, requests exception to the well spacing provisions of Rule 3 of Conservation Order No. 432B ("CO 432B") to allow drilling and operation of the Kuparuk River Unit ("KRU") 3F-19A oil production well to a location within the same governmental quarter section as another well capable of producing from the Kuparuk River Oil Pool. 2. Notice of opportunity for public hearing was published in the Anchorage Daily News on January 29, 2004 pursuant to 20 AAC 25.540. 3. No protests to the application or requests for hearing were received. FIND IN GS: 1. The KRU 3F-19A production well will be drilled as a deviated hole with a surface location 124 feet from the east line and 37 feet from the south line of Section 19, T12N, R9E, Umiat Meridian ("UM") to a bottomhole location 816 feet from the east line and 302 feet from the north line of Section 19, T12N, R9E, UM. This bottomhole location lies near the center of State Lease ADL 25632, and more than 500' away from the nearest lease or unit boundary. 2. Well spacing in Section 19, T12N, R9E, UM is regulated by Rule 3 of Conservation Order 432B ("CO 432B"), which supersedes statewide spacing requirements of20 AAC 25.055. Rule 3 of CO 432B states in part: "Not more than one well may be drilled on any governmental quarter section or governmental lot corresponding to it.." Conservation ordel .J. 514 Page 2 of 3 March 5, 2004 (' As proposed, KRU 3F-19A requires an exception to Rule 3 of CO 432B, as it will be the third well bore open to the Kuparuk Oil Pool within the northeast governmental quarter section of Section 19. 3. The location of the KRU 3F-19A well was selected as the most favorable structural position to recover oil reserves in the Kuparuk River Formation that are not recoverable with the current well pattern. 4. Offset landowners, owners and operators within 1,000 feet of the anticipated injection interval of the KRU 3F-19A well have been notified. CONCLUSIONS: 1. An exception to the well spacing provisions of Rule 3, CO 432B is necessary to allow the drilling and operation of the KRU 3F-19A production well. 2. Granting the requested spacing exception for the KRU 3F-19A well will promote more efficient recovery of oil reserves and will not result in waste or jeopardize the correlative rights of adjoining or nearby owners. NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED: CP AI's application for exception to well spacing provisions to allow the drilling and operation of the KRU 3F-19A production well is approved.

The proposed 3F-19A is designed as an infill Kuparuk A and C sand producer. This new well will recover A and C Sand waterflood and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) reserves that are located in a fault isolated area. Combined incremental Kuparuk A and C Sand reserves are 1.79 MMSTBO, where 129 MSTBO are incremental EOR recovery. The waterflood and EOR reserves cannot be recovered until we add an active producing well to the well pattern configuration. The requested exception refers to the well spacing requirements specified in Rule 3 of Conservation Order 4328, which states: "Not more than one well may be drilled on any governmental quarter section...", because the prospective pay interval in 3F-19A will lie within the NE 1/4 of Section 19, T 12N, R9E, U.M., and that 3F-19A will be the second well drilled within that particular quarter section (the other well being the existing 3F-13A production well). Property line considerations do not apply, as the 3F-19A well bore will be in the main portion of the Kuparuk River Unit, and therefore will be more than 500 feet from a property line where ownership or landownership changes. Offset well distance requirements do no apply because the 3F-19A well bore will lie more than 1000 feet from other wells completed within the pool. The 3F-19A sidetrack targets Section 19, T12N, R9E in order to potentially produce unswept A-sand oil on the Westside of the injection pattern. We believe A-sand oil is trapped against a north-south trending fault located on the west side of the injection pattern. Adjusting the directional profile to move the productive interval completely out of the northeast quarter of Section 19, T12N, R9E will compromise the original purpose of drilling this infill producer. Moving the contacted productive interval into either Section 18 (to the north) or Section 20 (to the east) will cause the well to potentially intercept mapped fault zones in those areas, resulting in faulted out pay intervals and/or loss of pressure support from 3F-20 due to fault isolation. Even though we will run the completion prior to rig release, we do not intend to produce or test the well until we receive the spacing exception. Please find attached for the review of the Commission the information required by 20 MC 25.055 (d). We have included a plat showing the location of 3F-19A, all other completed and drilling wells on the property, and all adjoining wells within 1,000 feet. Also included is a copy of the notices sent by certified mail to our co-owners and the affidavit verifying that all facts are true. If you have any questions or require any further information, please contact Kelly McLure at 265-6059. Please find attached the list of Co-Owners for the 3F-19A sidetrack well.

Commission Anchorage January 16, 2004 Sarah Palin, Chair Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission 333 West ih Avenue Suite 100 Anchorage, Alaska 99501 (907) 279-1433 Re: Application for Spacing Exception, producer sidetrack 3F-19A Dear Commissioner Palin: ConocoPhillips Alaska, Inc. hereby applies for a Spacing Exception an onshore production well, KRU 3F- 19A, a development well. The proposed 3F-19A is designed as an infill Kuparuk A and C sand producer. This new well will recover A and C Sand waterflood and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) reserves that are located in a fault isolated area. Combined incremental Kuparuk A and C Sand reserves are 1.79 MMSTBO, where 129 MST80 are incremental EOR recovery. The waterflood and EOR reserves cannot be recovered until we add an active producing well to the well pattern configuration. The requested exception refers to the well spacing requirements specified in Rule 3 of Conservation Order 4328, which states: "Not more than one well may be drilled on any governmental quarter section...", because the prospective pay interval in 3F-19A will lie within the NE 1/4 of Section 19, T 12N, R9E, U.M., and that 3F-19A will be the second well drilled within that particular quarter section (the other well being the existing 3F-13A production well). Property line considerations do not apply, as the 3F-19A well bore will be in the main portion of the Kuparuk River Unit, and therefore will be more than 500 feet from a property line where ownership or landownership changes. Offset well distance requirements do no apply because the 3F-19A well bore will lie more than 1000 feet from other wells completed within the pool. The 3F-19A sidetrack targets Section 19, T12N, R9E in order to potentially produce unswept A-sand oil on the Wests ide of the injection pattern. We believe A-sand oil is trapped against a north-south trending fault located on the west side of the injection pattern. Adjusting the directional profile to move the productive interval completely out of the northeast quarter of Section 19, T12N, R9E will compromise the original purpose of drilling this infill producer. Moving the contacted productive interval into either Section 18 (to the north) or Section 20 (to the east) will cause the well to potentially intercept mapped fault zones in those areas, resulting in faulted out pay intervals and/or loss of pressure support from 3F-20 due to fault isolation. Even though we will run the completion prior to rig release, we do not intend to produce or test the well until we receive the spacing exception. Please find attached for the review of the Commission the information required by 20 AAC 25.055 (d). We have included a plat showing the location of 3F-19A, all other completed and drilling wells on the property, and all adjoining wells within 1,000 feet. Also included is a copy of the notices sent by certified mail to our co-owners and the affidavit verifying that all facts are true. If you have any questions or require any further information, please contact Kelly McLure at 265-6059.
