March 18, 2014 Notice of Public Hearing, Affidavit of Publication, email distribution, mailings INDEX CONSERVATION ORDER NO. 689 STATE OF ALASKA ALASKA OIL AND GAS CONSERVATION COMMISSION 333 West 7th Avenue, Suite 100 Anchorage Alaska 99501 Re: THE APPLICATION OF Cook Inlet Energy, LLC for an exception to the spacing requirements of 20 AAC 25.055 (a)(3) to drill and complete a development oil well within the same governmental quarter section as, and within 1,000 feet of, wells that are, or may be capable of, producing from the same pool. Docket Number: CO-14-006 Conservation Order No. 689 West McArthur River Unit #213 Development Oil Well West McArthur River Field West McArthur River Oil Pool Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska April 23, 2014 IT APPEARING THAT: 1. By a letter received March 12, 2014, Cook Inlet Energy, LLC (CIE) requested an exception to the spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) to drill, complete, and produce the West McArthur River Unit (WMRU) No. 2B development oil well in the same governmental quarter section as, and within 1,000 feet of, wells that are, or may be capable of, producing from the same pool. 2. Pursuant to 20 AAC 25.540, the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (AOGCC) tentatively scheduled a public hearing for April 29, 2014. On March 18, 2014, the AOGCC published notice of the opportunity for that hearing on the State of Alaska's Online Public Notice website and on the AOGCC's website, electronically transmitted the notice to all persons on the AOGCC's email distribution list, and mailed printed copies of the notice to all persons on the AOGCC's mailing distribution list. On March 20, 2014, the notice was published in the ANCHORAGE DAILY NEWS. 3. Pursuant to 20 AAC 25.055(d)(1), CIE sent by certified mail notice of the application to all owners, landowners, and operators of all properties within 1,000 feet of the proposed WMRU No. 2B well. CIE provided the AOGCC the notice, date of mailing, and addresses to which the notice was sent. 4. No protest to the application or request for hearing was received. 5. On April 16, 2014, the tentatively scheduled public hearing was vacated. 6. Because CIE provided sufficient information upon which to make an informed decision, the request can be resolved without a hearing. Conservation Order 689 • April 23, 2014 Page 2 of 3 FINDINGS: 1. CIE is the operator of the proposed WMRU No. 213 development oil well, located on the west side of the Cook Inlet, Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska. 2. The WMRU No. 2B will be a deviated development well with an onshore surface location 2,804 feet from the south line and 1,418 feet from the west line of Section 16, Township 8 North, Range 14 West, Seward Meridian (S.M.). The projected offshore bottom -hole location is 1,322 feet from the north line and 2,291 feet from the east line of Section 10, Township 8 North, Range 14 West, S.M. 3. The surface location of WMRU No. 2B will be situated on acreage owned by Cook Inlet Region, Inc. (CIRI). The bottom -hole location of the well will lie within State of Alaska lease ADL 359111. 4. CIE sent the application on March 10, 2014 by certified mail to all affected owners, landowners, and operators—i.e., State of Alaska, CIRI, and CIE. CIE provided evidence to the AOGCC that the application was received by all addressees. 5. Development oil wells WMRU Nos. 5 and 6 currently produce from the West McArthur River Field, West McArthur River Oil Pool within the same governmental quarter sections as the planned well WMRU No. 2B. 6. WMRU No. 213 will be within 1,000 feet of WMRU Nos. 5 and 6 that are producing from the same pool. 7. WMRU No. 2B will access oil reserves structurally high to all other wells capable of producing within the same pool, in the same governmental quarter section. 8. The AOGCC received no comments, objections or protests in response to the public notice regarding the proposed WMRU No. 213 well or to the notification sent by CIE to all known owners, landowners, and operators within 1,000 feet of the WMRU No. 2B well. CONCLUSIONS: 1. An exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) is necessary to allow drilling and completion of the WMRU No. 2B development oil well. 2. WMRU No. 2B will recover reserves that are not accessible to existing development wells. 3. An exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) for the WMRU No. 2B development oil well is consistent with sound engineering and geoscience principles and will not result in waste or jeopardize correlative rights of adjoining or nearby owners. NOW THEREFORE IT IS ORDERED: CIE's March 12, 2014 application for an order granting an exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) to allow drilling and completion of the WMRU No. 2B development oil well within the West McArthur River Field, West McArthur River Oil Pool is hereby approved as long as CIE complies with the terms of all lease agreements, applicable Alaska laws, and all other legal requirements.

Seamo t, Jr. Commissioner 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 AOGCC grants for good cause shown, a person affected by it may file with the AOGCC 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 AOGCC 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 AOGCC 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 AOGCC mails, OR 30 days if the AOGCC 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 AOGCC 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 AOGCC, and it may be appealed to superior court. That appeal MUST be filed within 33 days after the date on which the AOGCC mails, OR 30 days if the AOGCC otherwise distributes, the order or decision on 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.

Specifically, CIE requests approval to drill a sidetrack to the existing WMRU 2A well, called WMRU 213, into a governmental quarter section which contains other oil wells producing or capable of producing from the same pool. The WMRU 2B well will be structurally high to all other wells within the governmental quarter section. CIE proposes to drill the WMRU 2B sidetrack well from an onshore location from an existing pad at the West McArthur River Production Facility, located within Section 16, T. 8 N., R. 14 W., S.M. at 60° 47' 4.424" N and 151° 44' 58.797" W, NAD 27 datum.

The WMRU 2B will have a bottomhole location within Section 10, T. 8 N., R. 14 W., 1,322 feet from the north line and 2,291 feet from the east line. The top of the Hemlock productive zone is anticipated to fall roughly 2,255 feet from the north line and 2,538 feet from the west line of Section 10. CIE is planning to test and potentially produce from zones within Section 10, T. 8 N., R. 14 W., S.M., This location is structurally high to all other wells capable of producing within the same pool in the same governmental quarter -section. The attached Exhibit A lists the Landowners, Owners, and Operators within 1,000 feet of the WMRU 2B Well and their contact information.
