November 11, 2014 CPAI's application for spacing exception — 3S-620 2. November 14, 2014 Notice of Public Hearing, Affidavit of Publication, email distribution, and mailings INDEX CONSERVATION ORDER NO. 711 STATE OF ALASKA ALASKA OIL AND GAS CONSERVATION COMMISSION 333 West 7t" Avenue Anchorage, Alaska 99501 Re: THE APPLICATION OF ConocoPhillips Alaska, Inc. 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 wells that are, or may be capable of, producing from the same pool Docket Number: CO- 14-032 Conservation Order No. 711 Kuparuk River Field Kuparuk River Unit Undefined Torok Oil Pool Kuparuk River Unit 3 S-620 Development Oil Well North Slope Borough, Alaska December 23, 2014 IT APPEARING THAT: 1. By letter received November 12, 2014, ConocoPhillips Alaska, Inc. (CPAI) requested an exception to the spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) to drill and complete a development oil well Kuparuk River Unit (KRU) 3S-620 within the same governmental quarter section as 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 December 18, 2014. On November 17, 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, mailed printed copies of the notice to all persons on the AOGCC's mailing distribution list, and published the notice in the ALASKA DISPATCH NEWS. 3. Pursuant to 20 AAC 25.055(d)(1), CPAI sent by certified mail notice of the application to all owners, landowners, and operators of all properties within 1,000 feet of the proposed KRU 3S-620 oil well, i.e., CPAI, BP Exploration Alaska Inc., Chevron USA Inc., ExxonMobil Alaska Production Inc., and the State of Alaska. CPAI provided the AOGCC the notice, date of mailing, addresses to which the notice was sent, and copies of the certified mail return receipts. 4. No comments on the application nor request for hearing were received. 5. Because CPAI provided sufficient information upon which to make an informed decision, the request can be resolved without a hearing. 6. The tentatively scheduled public hearing was vacated on December 8, 2014. CO 711 December 23, 2014 Page 2 of 3 FINDINGS: 1. CPAI is a working interest owner in and operator of the KRU that is located in the North Slope Borough, Alaska. 2. KRU 3S-620 is a proposed horizontal development oil well with an onshore surface location of 2,547 feet from the north line and 1,188 feet from the east line of Section 18, Township 12 North, Range 8 East, Umiat Meridian (UM). The onshore bottom -hole location is approximately 2,148 feet from the north line and 3,930 feet from the east line of Section 12, Township 12 North, Range 7 East, UM. 3. The surface location of KRU 3S-620 will lie within State of Alaska oil and gas lease ADL 380107, and the horizontal productive portion of the well will lie within State of Alaska oil and gas leases ADL 25544 and ADL 25528. 4. KRU 3 S-620 development well will target the oil-bearing Moraine sandstone within the Undefined Torok Oil Pool. 5. Development oil well KRU 3S-19 currently produces from the Undefined Torok Oil Pool within the same governmental quarter section as the planned oil well KRU 3S-620. 6. As planned, the horizontal productive interval within KRU 3 S-620 will be 4,000 feet long. Ten percent of the horizontal portion of the well will fall within the Undefined Torok Oil Pool drainage area of KRU 3 S-19. 7. Locating planned horizontal well KRU 3S-620 near existing well KRU 3S-19 within the same undefined oil pool allows direct comparison of horizontal versus deviated well performance. 8. The sail angle of well KRU 3S-620 is 69 degrees, approaching the upper limit at which the well can be reliably serviced with wireline-conveyed tools. Moving the landing point of KRU 3 S-620 (the "heel" of the horizontal portion of the well) will increase the sail angle, increase drilling risk, and make future well maintenance difficult. 9. The AOGCC received no comments, objections or protests in response to the public notice regarding the proposed exception to the spacing requirements of 20 AAC 25.055 for KRU 3S-620 or to the notification sent by CPAI to all known owners, landowners, and operators within 1,000 feet of KRU 3S-620. CONCLUSIONS: 1. An exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) is necessary to allow the drilling and completion of KRU 3S-620. 2. Drilling development oil well KRU 3 S-620 near existing development oil well KRU 3 S-19 will allow direct comparison of horizontal versus deviated well performance for the undefined Torok Oil Pool. 3. Locating KRU 3S-620 in conformance with statewide spacing requirements would reduce the effectiveness of the well performance comparison, increase drilling risks and make well intervention difficult. CO 711 December 23, 2014 Page 3 of 3 4. A spacing exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) for the KRU 3S- 620 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: CPAI's November 12, 2014 application for an order granting an exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) to allow the drilling and completion of the KRU 3S-620 development oil well is approved. CPAI may proceed as long as it complies with the terms of all lease agreements, applicable Alaska laws, and all other legal requirements. ,,/' i'r'•.� DONE at Anchorage, Alaska and dated December 23, 2014. Daniel T. Seamount, Jr. avid J. Mayberry, Commissioner Commissioner RECONSIDERATION AND APPEAL 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.
