Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission ("Commission") on June 29, 2004,
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")
lY-24A and lY-24ALl multilateral oil production well bores to locations within the

Notice of opportunity for public hearing was published in the Anchorage Daily News on
July 16,2004 pursuant to 20 AAC 25.540;
All owners, landowners and operators within 1000 feet of the anticipated productive
interval and all operators of wells within 200 feet of the proposed wellbores have been
notified; and
No protests to the application or requests for hearing have been received.
FINDINGS:
I
1. KRU lY-24A will be redrilled as a replacement well bore for existing well KRU lY-24
and KRU lY-24ALl will be drilled as a deviated, multilateral well bore branching from
the new oil production well KRU 1 Y -24A.
2. The surface location ofKRU lY-24 is 570 feet from the north line and 1762 feet from the
west line of Section 1, TllN, R9E, OM. The proposed bottom hole location ofKRU 1 Y-
24A is 4,900 feet from the north line and 3,970 feet from the east line of Section 1, TllN,
R9E, OM. The proposed bottom hole location ofKRU lY-24ALl is 1,697 feet from the
north line and 2,025 feet from the east line of Section 12, TlIN, R9E, OM.
3. KRU lY-24A and lY-24ALl will lie entirely within State Lease ADL 25646. ADL
25646 is committed to the Kuparuk River Unit and the Kuparuk Participating Area. The
ownership interests in this lease has been consistently cross-assigned, with the owners
I·,
.
.
being CPAI (55.29%), BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc. (39.28%), Union Oil Company of
California (4.95%), ExxonMobil Alaska Production Inc. (0.36%), and Chevron USA Inc.
(0.11 %). The State of Alaska is the landowner for the lease.
1"~
4. CP AI is the designated operator of lease ADL 25646.
5. Well spacing in Sections 1 and 12 of T1IN, 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:
I",
. .' ........~.."..'.......,-,.,
.....:.., .
.- ~~
,-,
"Not more than one well may be drilled on any governmental quarter section or
governmental lot corresponding to it ... nor may the pool be opened in a well bore
... closer than 1,000 feet to the pool opened to the well bore in another well."
6. According to the definitions provided in 20 AAC 25.990(73)(B), the term "well:"
"includes a well with multiple well branches drilled to different bottom hole locations."
7. As proposed, KRU lY-24A be the second well bore open to the pool within the NE 1,4
of Section 12, TllN, R09E, Umiat Meridian ("UM"), the second well bore open to
the pool within the SE 1,4 of Section 1, TllN, R09E, UM, and the third well bore open
to the pool in the SW ~ of Section 1, TllN, R09E, UM. KRU IY-24A will also open
the Kuparuk River Oil Pool less than 1,000' distant from KRU 1 Y -07.
8. As proposed, KRU IY-24ALI will require an exception to Rule 3 of CO 432B. This
multilateral well bore will be the third well bore open to the pool in the NE ~ of Section
12, TllN, R9E, UM. KRU IY-24ALI will also open the Kuparuk River Oil Pool less
than 1,000' distant from KRU 2Z-05.
,......
0$,
9. The locations ofKRU 1Y-24A and KRU lY-24ALl were selected as the most favorable
structural position to recover oil reserves in the Kuparuk River Oil Pool that are not
recoverable with the current well pattern.
10. All owners, landowners and operators within 1,000 feet of the anticipated productive
interval ofKRU lY-24A and KRU IY-24ALI and all operators of wells within 200 feet
of the proposed wellbores have been notified.
CONCLUSIONS:
,
1. An exception to the well spacing provisions of Rule 3, CO 432B is necessary to allow
drilling and operation of the KRU lY-24A production well bore;
2. An exception to the well spacing provisions of Rule 3, CO 432B is necessary to allow
drilling and operation of the KRU 1 Y -24ALl multilateral production well bore; and
3. Granting the requested spacing exception for the KRU lY-24A and KRU 1Y-24ALl
well bores will promote more efficient recovery of oil reserves and will not result in
waste or jeopardize the correlative rights of adjoining or nearby owners.

Re: Amendment to Application for Spacing Exception, producer 1 Y-24A and 1 Y-24AL 1
Dear Commissioner:
This amendment provides notice of a change in naming convention used to designate the 1Y-24 sidetrack
referenced in the Application for Spacing Exception, producer 1Y-24A L 1 and L2, dated June 25, 2004.
As the original wellbore was named 1Y-24 the first lateral (referred to as L 1 in original application) will be
called 1 Y -24A and the second lateral (previously known as L2) will be called 1 Y -24AL 1.
In ,addition to the name change, the bottom hole location information for the laterals (1Y-24A and 1Y-
24AL 1) has been revised to reflect last-minute well path changes and coincide with the Permit to Drill.
Below is the current lateral bottom hole location information:
Leg 1: (1 Y-24A)
Top of Productive Interval

Dear Commissioner:
ConocoPhillips Alaska, InC~e~êby.apPlies for a Spacing Exception an onshore production well, KRU 1Y-
24Ã l!1,F,?,nd L2 a multilateral dév'è!.cip,.ment well. The proposed 1Y-24A L 1 and L2 are designed as an infill
.' .... KURaru~.A .sand multilateral pro'êJúcer to replace the existing 1 Y-24 A sand producer which has
" "", 'exp.eriëñcei'a liner failure. This infill well will recover A Sand waterflood and enhanced oil recovery (EaR)
reserves that are banked along a sealing fault to the South and due to a failure of the original wellbore.
Risked A Sand incremental WF and EaR reserves for this project are 1.035 MMSTBO. These reserves
are not recoverable with the current well pattern configuration.

The requested exception refers to the well spacing requirements specified in Rule 3 of Conservation
Order 432B, which states: "Not more than one well may be drilled on any governmental quarter
section...", because portions of 1Y-24A L 1 and L2 will lie within the NE 1,4 Section 12 T11 N, R9E (15t wells
in this qtr section are 2Z-05 & 2Z-22), SW 1,4 of Section 1 T11N, R9E (15t wells in this qtr section are 1Y-
07 & 2Z-20), and SE 1,4 of Section 1, T11 N, R9E (15t well in this qtr section is 1 Y-23) those portions of the
laterals will be the second or third wells drilled in those quarter sections. Property line considerations do
not apply, as the well bores will be in the heart of the Kuparuk River Unit and therefore will be more than
500 feet from a property line where ownership or landownership changes. The exception also refers to
the spacing requirement specified in Rule 3 orca 432B, which states: "...nor may the pool be opened ill
a well bore that is closer than 500 feet to any property line nor closer than 1 ,000 feet to the pool opened
to the well bore in another well.. .", because a portion of 1 Y-24A L 1 will lie within 1,000 feet of 1 Y-07
(-798 feet at the closest point) and a portion of 1Y-24A L2 will lie within 1,000 feet of 2Z-05 (-1,000 feet
at the closest point) which are both completed in the same pool.
Please find attached for the review of the Commission the information required by 20 ACC 25.005 (d). If
you have any questions or require any further information, please contact Nick Pysz at 265-6831.

Nick,
The Jetter is good, but you need to specifically state that the original letters of notification were sent out by certified
mail (a requirement of regulation 20 AAC 25.055). You need also to provide AOGCC with a list of the names of
affected owners, landowners, operators ("owner" means the person or company who had the right to drill into and
produce from a pool; "landowner" means the owner of the subsurface estate of the affected tract; "operator" means
an owner or person authorized by an owner who is responsible for drilling, development, production, injection,
disposal, storage, abandonment and location clearance). 1 need a more specific list other than "co-owners" per 20
AAC 25.055(d)(1).
I'll also need a copy of the amendment letter you send to the affected parties, and the date that you mailed the letter
via certified mail. .>ç-

Ae: Amendment to Application for Spacing Exception, producer 1 Y -24A and 1 Y -24AL 1
Dear Commissioner:
This amendment provides notice of a change in naming convention used to designate the 1 Y-24 sidetrack
referenced in the Application for Spacing Exception, producer 1Y-24A L1 and L2, dated June 25, 2004,
As the original wellbore was named 1Y-24 the first lateral (referred to as L1 in original application) will be
called 1 Y -24A and the second lateral (previously known as L2) will be called 1 Y -24AL 1.
In addition to the name change, the bottom hole location information for the laterals (1Y-24A and 1Y-
24AL 1) has been revised to reflect last-minute well path changes and coincide with the Permit to Drill.
Below is the current lateral bottom hole location information:
Leg 1: (1 Y-24A)
Top of Productive Interval
TO
5114 FNL, 2986 FEL, See, 1, T11N, A9E, U,M.
4900 FNL, 3970 FEL, Sec. 1, T11 N, A9E, U.M.
Leg 2: (1 Y-24AL 1)
Top of Productive Interval

Anchorage, Alaska 99501

Re: Application for Spacing Exception, producer 1 Y -24A L 1 and L2
Dear Commissioner:
ConocoPhillips Alaska, Inc. hereby applies for a Spacing Exception an onshore production well, KRU 1Y-
24A L 1 and L2 a multilateral development well. The proposed 1 Y-24A L 1 and L2 are designed as an infill
Kuparuk A sand multilateral producer to replace the existing 1Y-24 A sand producer which has
experience a liner failure. This infill well will recover A Sand waterflood and enhanced oil recovery (EOR)
reserves that are banked along a sealing fault to the South and due to a failure of the original wellbore.
Risked A Sand incremental WF and EOR reserves for this project are 1.035 MMST80. These reserves
are not recoverable with the current 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 portions of 1Y-24A L1 and L2 will lie within the NE 14 Section 12 T11N, R9E (1st wells
in this qtr section are 2Z-05 & 2Z-22), SW 14 of Section 1 T11N, R9E (1st wells in this qtr section are 1Y-
07 & 2Z-20), and SE 14 of Section 1, T11 N, R9E (1 st well in this qtr section is 1 Y-23) those portions of the
laterals will be the second or third wells drilled in those quarter sections. Property line considerations do
not apply, as the well bores will be in the heart of the Kuparuk River Unit and therefore will be more than
500 feet from a property line where ownership or landownership changes. The exception also refers to
the spacing requirement specified in Rule 3 of CO 4328, which states: ".. .nor may the pool be opened in
a well bore that is closer than 500 feet to any property line nor closer than 1,000 feet to the pool opened
to the well bore in another welL..", because a portion of 1 Y -24A L1 will lie within 1,000 feet of 1 Y -07
(-798 feet at the closest point) and a portion of 1Y-24A L2 will lie within 1,000 feet of 2Z-05 (-1,000 feet
at the closest point) which are both completed in the same pool.
Please find attached for the review of the Commission the information required by 20 ACC 25.005 (d). If
you have any questions or require any further information, please contact Nick Pysz at 265-6831.
Sincerely,
¿¿J.~
