ENTERED AND EFFECTIVE at Anchorage, Alaska and this 8th day of October, 2008. BY DIRECTION OF THE COMMISSION J. C mbie ial sistant to the Commission • • STATE OF ALASKA ALASKA OIL AND GAS CONSERVATION COMMISSION 333 West Seventh Avenue, Suite 100 Anchorage, Alaska 99501 Re: THE APPLICATION OF Marathon Oil Company for an order granting an exception to the well spacing requirements of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(4) to allow drilling, completion, testing, and regular production of the proposed Susan Dionne No. 6 gas development well within 3,000 feet of other wells (in the Ninilchik Unit of the proposed Dionne/Paxton Participating Area) that are producing from or capable of producing from the same intervals. Conservation Order No. 607 Ninilchik Unit Susan Dionne No. 6 Gas Development Well October 8, 2008 IT APPEARING THAT: 1. Marathon Oil Company (MOC), by letter dated May 6, 2008, and received that same day by the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (Commission), requests an order providing for an exception to the well spacing requirements of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(4) to allow drilling, completion, testing, and regular production of the Susan Dionne (SD) No. 6 gas development well within 3,000 feet of the SD No. 1, SD No. 2, SD No. 3, SD No. 4, and SD No. 5 wells: the proposed SD No. 6 well may be capable of producing from the same pools (i. e., the Tyonek and Beluga Formations) as the SD No. 1, SD No. 2, SD No. 3, SD No. 4, and SD No. 5 wells. The proposed well and other wells are within the Ninilchik Unit of the proposed Susan Dionne/Paxton Participating Area, Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska. 2. On May 9, 2008, pursuant to 20 AAC 25.540, the Commission published in the ANCHORAGE DAILY NEws notice of the opportunity for a public hearing on June 12, 2008. 3. No protest to the application or request for a hearing was received. 4. The public hearing was vacated on June10, 2008. FINDINGS: 1. MOC will be the operator of the SD No. 6 well, which will be within the Ninilchik Unit of the proposed Susan Dionne/Paxton Participating Area, Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska. 2. The SD No. 6 well is proposed as a deviated gas delineation well with a surface location 1,145 feet from the east line (FEL) and 405 feet from the north line (FNL) of Section 6, T1S, R13W, Seward Meridian (S.M.), and a projected bottom hole location 322 feet FEL, 875 feet FNL, of Section 12, T1 S, R14W, S.M. 3. The SD No. 6 well will target gas reservoirs that can be discontinuous in the Tyonek Formation T1 gas sands and the Beluga Formation gas sands. 4. The SD No. 6 well is within 3,000 feet of the SD No. 1, SD No. 2, SD No. 3, SD No. 4, and SD No. 5 wells, which are also within the Ninilchik Unit of the proposed Susan Dionne/Paxton Participating Area. 5. The SD No. 1, SD No. 2, SD No. 3, SD No. 4, and SD No. 5 wells produce from the Tyonek Formation and penetrate Beluga Formation sands that are capable of producing gas. 6. By certified mail, MOC sent notice of the application for an order granting an exception to the well spacing requirements of 20 AAC 25.055 to all owners, landowners, and operators of all properties within 3,000 feet of the anticipated productive intervals of the proposed SD No. 6 well. CONCLUSIONS: 1. Exceptions to 20 AAC 20.25.055(a)(4) are necessary to allow drilling, completion, testing, and regular production of the SD No. 6 gas well. This well is needed to evaluate the Tynoek Formation T1 gas reservoirs and Beluga Formation gas reservoirs in the Ninilchik Unit of the proposed Susan Dionne/Paxton Participating Area. 2. Granting a spacing exception to allow drilling, completion, testing, and regular production of the SD No. 6 well will not result in waste or jeopardize the correlative rights of adjoining or nearby owners. NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED: Pursuant to the Commission's authority under AS 31.05.030, and 20 AAC 25.055, the Commission approves MOC's application for an order granting an exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(4) to allow drilling, completion, testing, and regular production of the SD No. 6 well. Because the properties affected by this spacing exception are wholly within the Ninilchik Unit of the proposed Susan Dionne/Paxton Participating Area, MOC may proceed with regular production as long as it complies with the terms of the Ninilchik Unit and proposed Susan Dionne/Paxton Participating Area agreements and all other legal requirements.

Seamount, Jr., Chair Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission Conservation Order No. 607 Effective October 8, 2008 Page 2 of 3 Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission • • RECONSIDERATION AND APPEAL NOTICE As provided in AS 31.05.080(a), within 20 days after written notice of the entry of this order or decision, or such further time as the Commission grants for good cause shown, a person affected by it may file with the Commission an application for reconsideration of the matter determined by it. If the notice was mailed, then the period of time shall be 23 days. An application for reconsideration must set out the respect in which the order or decision is believed to be erroneous. The Commission shall grant or refuse the application for reconsideration in whole or in part within 10 days after it is filed. Failure to act on it within 10-days is a denial of reconsideration. If the Commission denies reconsideration, upon denial, this order or decision and the denial of reconsideration are FINAL and may be appealed to superior court. The appeal MUST be filed within 33 days after the date on which the Commission mails, OR 30 days if the Commission otherwise distributes, the order or decision denying reconsideration, UNLESS the denial is by inaction, in which case the appeal MUST be filed within 40 days after the date on which the application for reconsideration was filed. If the Commission grants an application for reconsideration, this order or decision does not become final. Rather, the order or decision on reconsideration will be the FINAL order or decision of the Commission, and it may be appealed to superior court. That appeal MUST be filed within 33 days after the date on which the Commission mails, OR 30 days if the Commission otherwise distributes, the order or decision on reconsideration. As provided in AS 31.05.080(b), "[t]he questions reviewed on appeal are limited to the questions presented to the Commission by the application for reconsideration." In computing a period of time above, the date of the event or default after which the designated period begins to run is not included in the period; the last day of the period is included, unless it falls on a weekend or state holiday, in which event the period runs until 5:00 p.m. on the next day that does not fall on a weekend or state holiday.

Commission Anchorage Marathon Oil Company respectfully requests the following location exception for the referenced well: Surface Location: 1145' FEL & 405' FNL, Section 6, T1S, R13W, S.M. Targets: Estimated Top of Beluga Production: • Beluga Productive Interval @ 3770' MD, 2206' TVD 1299' FWL & 369' FNL, Section 7, T1S, R13W, S.M. Estimated Top of Tyonek Production: • Tyonek Productive Interval @ 5650' MD, 3570' TVD 144' FWL & 729' FNL, Section 7, T1S, R13W, S.M. Bottom Hole: Estimated @ 6650' MD, 4436' TVD 322' FEL & 875' FNL, Section 12, T1S, R14W, S.M. The Susan Dionne No. 6 (SD-6) well is to be drilled as a development well within the Susan Dionne/Paxton Participating Area targeting the Beluga and Tyonek T1 gas sands in State of Alaska ADL 384372 and ADL 359242. A location exception is required because the Beluga and Tyonek T1 productive intervals of the SD-6 well will be within 3,000 feet of wells capable of producing from the same Beluga and Tyonek intervals, as shown in Exhibit "A". The Beluga is not currently being produced from wells at the Susan Dionne pad. The SD-6 will be the first well drilled to test the viability of Beluga production in the Susan Dionne/Paxton Participating Area. Even so, the Susan Dionne No. 1 (SD-1), No. 2 (SD-2), No. 3 (SD-3), No. 4 (SD-4), and No.S (SD-5) are Tyonek wells that have Beluga intervals within 3000' of the same Beluga interval in SD-6.

Box 3128 Houston, TX 77253 Telephone 713-296-3302 Fax 713-499-8504 • • Location Exception Application May 6, 2007 Marathon Oil Company Page 2 Ninilchik Unit, Susan Dionne/Paxton P.A., Susan Dionne No. 6 Well Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska Susan Dionne No. 5 well is the only well that currently produces from the Tyonek T1 interval at the Susan Dionne Pad and will be within 3,000 feet of the same Tyonek interval in SD-6. The Tyonek T1 productive interval in the Susan Dionne No. 1, No. 2 and No. 4 wells are also within 3,000 feet of the same Tyonek interval in SD-6, but those wells do not currently produce from the Tyonek T1 interval. There are no other wells, productive or non-productive, that penetrate the Tyonek T1 within 3,000 feet. This spacing exception is necessary to test the productive potential of the Beluga gas sands in a timely manner and efficiently drain the Tyonek reservoirs that often have limited drainage areas due to the discontinuous nature of Tyonek sands. Attached is a plat showing the SD-6 surface location and well paths from the Susan Dionne Pad. The Beluga B2 and the Top Tyonek T1 cut points are noted on the SD-6 well path. Also attached is a pre-drill directional survey for the SD-6 well. Furthermore, the parties listed on Exhibit "B" are entitled to notice of this application and have been duly notified. Should you have any questions related to land or ownership issues, please contact Chris Gay at 907-565-3046, or for questions regarding the technical aspects of this application, please contact Scott Szalkowski at 713-296-3390.

Scott Szalkowski, and first being duly sworn upon his oath, states and deposes as follows: 1. That I am over the age of 21 years and mentally competent. to make this affidavit. 2. That I am knowledgeable and fully informed concerning the facts contained in this affidavit. 3. That for approximately the past two and a half years I have worked as a geologist for Marathon Oil Company (MOC) on the Alaska Asset Team. My responsibilities have included geology of the Cook Inlet/Kenai Peninsula Areas. 4. That I have been responsible for the geological work related to a Location Exception application for the Marathon Susan Dionne No. 6 Well (SD-6) with a surface location in Section 6, T1S, R13W, S.M. and bottom hole location in Section 12, T1S, R14W, S.M. 5. The SD-6 well targets gas bearing Beluga and Tyonek T 1 reservoirs. 6. The Susan Dionne No. 6 (SD-6} well is to be drilled as a development well within the Susan Dionne/Paxton Participating Area targeting the Beluga and Tyonek TI gas sands in State of Alaska ADL 384372 and ADL 359242. A location exception is required because the Beluga and Tyonek T1 productive intervals of the SD-6 well will be within 3,000 feet of wells capable of producing from the same Beluga and Tyonek intervals, as shown in Exhibit "A". The Beluga is not currently being produced from wells at the Susan Dionne pad. The SD-6 will be the first well drilled to test the viability of Beluga production in the Susan Dionne/Paxton Participating Area. Even so, the Susan Dionne No. 1 (SD-1), No. 2 (SD-2), No. 3 (SD-3), No. 4 (SD-4), and No.S (SD-5) are Tyonek wells that have Beluga intervals within 3000' of the same Beluga interval in SD-6. The Susan Dionne No. 5 well is the only well that currently produces from the Tyonek T1 interval at the Susan Dionne Pad and will be within 3,000 feet of the same Tyonek interval in SD-6. The Tyonek T1 productive interval in the Susan Dionne No. 1, No. 2 and No. 4 wells are also within 3,000 feet of the same Tyonek interval in SD-6, but those wells do not currently produce from the Tyonek T1 interval. There aze no other wells, productive or non-productive, that penetrate the Tyonek T1 within 3,000 feet. This spacing exception is necessary to test the productive potential of the Beluga gas sands in a timely manner and efficiently drain the Tyonek reservoirs that often have limited drainage areas due to the discontinuous nature of Tyonek sands. e t e not.

That for approximately the past three years I have worked for Marathon Oil Company (MOC) assisting the Alaska Land Department. 4. That I assisted in preparing a notification list for a Location Exception application for the Marathon Susan Dionne No. 6 Well (SD-6) with a surface location in Section 6, T1S, R13W, S.M. and bottom hole location in Section 12, Tl S, R14W, S.M. That on or about May 6, 2008 Marathon employees mailed notice of the SD-6 Well Location Exception application to all of the mineral owners, working interest owners, and overriding royalty owners within a 3,000 foot radius of the proposed well location by certified mail, return receipt requested. A list of these noticed owners is attached to this affidavit as Exhibit "B." The postal return receipts will be made available for inspection by proper parties. These notices were mailed to their last known address or record address, and I believe that we have mailed the notice letters to good current addresses. In view of the foregoing facts, affiant herein states and deposes that Marathon, as operator of the proposed SD-6 Well, has made a reasonable and diligent effort to identify, locate and contact all parties legally due notice of the said Location Exception application.
