October 7, 2018 Notice of hearing, affidavit of publication, email distribution, mailings STATE OF ALASKA ALASKA OIL AND GAS CONSERVATION COMMISSION 333 West 71" Avenue Anchorage, Alaska 99501 Re: THE APPLICATION OF B1ueCrest Alaska Operating LLC to drill, complete, test, and produce the Hansen H-04-1,03 development oil well branch within the same governmental quarter section as, and within 1,000 feet of, a well that is, or may be capable of, producing from the same pool. IT APPEARING THAT: Docket Number: CO -18-030 Conservation Order 761 Cosmopolitan Unit Hansen Undefined Oil Pool Hansen H-04-1,03 Oil Development Well Branch Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska November 19, 2018 By a letter received October 1, 2018, B1ueCrest Alaska Operating LLC (B1ueCrest) requested an exception to the statewide spacing requirements of 20 AAC 25.055 to drill, complete, test, and produce the Hansen H -04-L03 development oil well branch within the same governmental quarter section as, and within 1,000 feet of, a well that is, 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 November 8,2018. On October 4, 2018, 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 October 7, 2018, the AOGCC published the notice in the ANCHORAGE DAILY NEWS. 3. BlueCrest sent by certified mail notice of the application to all owners, landowners, and operators of all properties within 1,000 feet of the proposed Hansen H-04-1,03 development well branch—i.e., the State of Alaska and the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management—and provided the notice, addresses to which the notices were delivered, and Certified Mail receipts. 4. No comments or request for hearing were received regarding B1ueCrest's application. 5. The tentatively scheduled public hearing was vacated. 6. B1ueCrest's application provided sufficient information upon which to make an informed decision. FINDINGS: 1. B1ueCrest is the operator and sole working interest owner of the Cosmopolitan Unit, located within the Cook Inlet, Kenai Peninsula Borough, Alaska. 2. Hansen H-04-1,03 will be a horizontal, development oil well branch drilled directionally to the northwest from an onshore surface location at 2,173 feet from the south line (FSL) and 1,552 feet from the east line (FEL) of Section 2, Township 4 South, Range 15 West (RI 5 W), Seward Meridian (S.M.). The top of the Hansen Undefined producing interval location will lie offshore about 1,433 feet FSL and 5,158 feet FEL of Section 33, Township 3 South (T3S), CO 761 November 19, 2018 Page 2 of 3 R15W, S.M. The bottom -hole location will lie offshore about 2,258 feet FSL and 1,177 feet FEL of Section 32, T3S, R15W, S.M. 3. For well branch Hansen H-04-1,03, the kick-off point, top -of -productive interval, and bottom - hole locations will lie within State of Alaska lease ADL 384403. 4. Hansen H-04-1,03 will target reservoirs within the Hansen Undefined Oil Pool. 5. Hansen H -04-L03 will be located within the same governmental quarter section as, and within 1,000 feet of, development oil well Hansen H-04 and development oil well branches Hansen H -04-L01, Hansen H -04-L02, Hansen H-04-1,04, and Hansen H -04-L05, and within 1,000 feet of development oil well branch Hansen H-04-1,06 that are, or may be capable of, producing from the same oil pool. 6. The well path and bottom -hole location for Hansen H-04-1,03 were chosen—based on reservoir mapping and modeling results—to ensure greater ultimate recovery by maximizing the amount of wellbore open to the reservoirs and extracting oil that cannot be efficiently produced by existing wells. CONCLUSIONS: 1. An exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) is necessary to allow the drilling, completion, testing, and regular production of the Hansen H-04-1,03 development oil well branch at a location that will maximize resource recovery. 2. Granting an exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) for the Hansen H-04-1,03 well branch will not result in waste or jeopardize correlative rights of adjoining or nearby owners. NOW THEREFORE IT IS ORDERED: The AOGCC grants B1ueCrest's October 1, 2018, application for an exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) to allow drilling, completion, testing, and regular production of the Hansen H-04-1,03 development oil well branch within the Hansen Undefined Oil Pool.

Reservoir modeling indicates that the optimum spacing for the laterals is 800'. Because of that spacing, the laterals conflict with each other. Also, due to the 303" azimuth we are drilling for hole stability, there are multiple instances where two or more of the laterals will be within the same % section. Accordingly, an exception to statewide spacing requirements is requested. BlueCrest Energy is the only effected working interest owner and operator within the leasehold contacting the Cosmopolitan Undefined Oil Pool. The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) and Alaska Department of Natural Resources Division of Oil and Gas (ADNR DOG) have been notified of BlueCrest Energy's intent to submit this application for exception. The necessary documentation confirming notice is included in the attached. For these reasons, in lieu of pool rules that would allow for this unique and field specific spacing, BlueCrest Energy Is requesting a spacing exception. Please find attached for the review of the Commission the information required by 20 ACC 25.055 for this well bore. If you have any questions or require further information, please do not hesitate to contact Andrew Buchanan at 907-754- 9563.

In the absence of an order by the commission establishing drilling units or prescribing a spacing pattern for a pool, the following statewide spacing requirements apply: (1) for a well drilling for oil, a wellbore may be open to test or regular production within 500 feet of a property line only if the owner is the same and the landowner is the same on both sides of the line; Not Applicable — Well is not within 500' of the federal lease line (2) for a well drilling for gas, a wellbore may be open to test or regular production within 1,500 feet of a property line only if the owner is the some and the landowner is the same on both sides of the line; Not Applicable — Wellbore is drilling for oil. (3) if oil has been discovered, the drilling unit for the pool is a governmental quarter section; not more than one well may be drilled to and completed in that pool on any governmental quarter section; a well may not be drilled or completed closer than 1,000 feet to any well drilling to or capable of producing from the some pool; Please see Attachment 1: Spacing Exception Platt (4) if gas has been discovered, the drilling unit for the pool is a governmental section; not more than one well may be drilled to and completed in that pool on any governmental section; a well may not be drilled or completed closer than 3,000 feet to any well drilling to or capable of producing from the same pool. Not Applicable — Target is the Cosmopolitan Undefined Oil Pool 2. Requirements of 20 AAC 25.055 (b) A well may not begin regular production of oil from a property that is smaller than the governmental quarter section upon which the well is located or begin regular production of gas from a property that is smaller than the governmental section upon which the well is located, unless the interests of the persons owning the drilling rights in and the right to share in the production from the quarter section or section, respectively, have been pooled under AS 31.05.100. BlueCrest Energy is the only operator and 100% working interest owner within the Cosmopolitan Unit. 3. Requirements of 20 AAC 25.055 (c) A pooling agreement under AS 31.05.100 must be filed with the commission before regular production from the affected property begins.
