ORDER

Pursuant to Notice of Hearing dated March 25, 1975, of the Board

of Oil and Gas Conservation, Department of Natural Resources of the State of

NOW. THEREFORE, the Board having considered the testimony adduced,

and the exhibits received at said hearing, and being fully advised in the premises,

now makes and enters the following:

'FINDINGS

1. Due and regular notice of the time, place and purpose of the

hearing was given to all interested parties in the form and manner and within

the time required by law and the rules and regulations of the Board.

2. The Board has jurisdiction of the matters covered by the applica-

tion and over all parties interested therein and has jurisdiction to make

and promulgate the Order herein set forth.

3. The Board, by Order entered in Cause No. 131-14 dated August 11,

1971, established drilling units comprising each governmental section or

governmental lots corresponding thereto, for the production of oil, gas and

associated hydrocarbons from the interval, described in Paragraph 4(b) thereof,

underlying the lands described and referred to in said Cause No. 131-14 and

by Order entered in Cause No. 131-24 dated January 16, 1974, the Board extended

the Order entered in Cause No. l3l~l4 to cover additional lands described in

Paragraph 4(a) thereof.

4. Further drilling and development operations subsequent to such

Orders, and information and data obtained therefrom, indicate that the

presently producing and spaced 'i interval of the Bluebell Field, as defined in

Paragraph 4(b) of the Order entered in Cause No. 131-14, also underlies

additional lands lying generally east of the existing spaced area and that

prior Orders entered in Cause No. 131-14 and Cause No. 131-24 should be modified

and extended to cover and include the following described lands, to witl

Township 1 South, Range 2 'East All of Sections 30 and 31;

Township 2 South, Range 2 East All of Sections 5, 6, 7, 8, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 28,

2~.,30, 31, 32, 33 and 34;

Township 5 South; Ranee 19 'East All of Sections 20, 21, 22, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 32, 33,

34 and 35;

Townehip '6 ' South, Range '19 'East All of Sections 3,' 4, 5, 9, 10, 15, 16, 22, 27 and 34.

5. A substantial part of the above-described lands is comprised of

sections of land irregular in size and shape due to the Salt Lake Meridian

and Unita Special Meridian running through the area; consequently, to prevent

the drilling of unnecessary wells and to protect correlative rights, drilling

• I r

-2-

' . , units for the spaced interval underlying such lands should be established

and defined as hereinafter set forth.

6. Due to such irregularities and to provide for orderly well

spacing in the area, the permitted well location for such drilling units should

be modified slightly from that set out in Ordering Paragraph (c) of Cause

No. 131-14, with appropriate exceptions allowed for existing wells.

7. One well on each such designated drilling unit will efficiently

and economically recover underlying oil, gas and associated hydrocarbons.

8. Due to remoteness and insufficient production data to evaluate

and determine oil and gas reserves underlying the lands described in Para-

graph 4 above; oil and gas wells located on such lands should be relieved

of the requirements and restrictions imposed in the Order entered in Cause

No. 144-2 as to flaring of casinghead gas from producing wells; in substitu-

tion, the provisions of the Order entered in Cause No. 144-13 should apply.

'ORDER

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED:

That Orders entered in Cause No. 131-14 and Cause No. 131-24 are

hereby modified and extended as follows:

A. To cover and include the spaced interval, as defined in Para-

graph 4(b) of the Order entered in Cause No. 131-14, underlying the lands

described in Paragraph 4 above,

4. In Cause No. 140-12, the Board authorized the

drilling of test or second wells that may only be produced

alternatively with the initial well on the same drilling unit.

5. The Lower Green River/Wasatch Formation underlying

the subject fields constitutes a pool as that term is defined in

Utah Code Ann. §40-6-2(9) (1953, as amended), and is a highly

complex series of isolated and discontinuous beds of productive

rock that are randomly distributed vertically over a several

thousand feet thick interval. Normally, the productive beds are

separate and distinct and not in communication with each other.

6. Many of the productive beds are not corre1atable

from well to well and will not afford communication between wells

as close as 1000 feet. Of the productive beds that correlate,

various geological factors prevent a significant number form

communicating between wells within the same section.

7. Geologic and engineering information from initial

unit wells and test wells show that a single well will not

effectively drain the recoverable oil and gas underlying any

given 640 acre spacing unit because the productive beds are too

-5-

small or have other limiting characteristics precluding effective

and efficient drainage of the recoverable reserves underlying the

unit.

8. Data from production logs and field performance

show that test wells drilled under the Order in Cause No. 140-12

after 1978 have caused the recovery of substantial amounts of oil

from separate and distinct productive beds and from previously

undepleted productive beds, and that the drilling of additional

wells on existing units will increase the ultimate recovery of

oil from the subject fields.

9. The prohibition of simultaneous production from the

initial well and test well on the same unit has caused the

shutting in of wells with the potential to produce substantial

amounts of additional reserves.

10. Each additional well drilled under this order will

tap producing formations that are separate and distinct from and

not in communication with any other producing formation and is

not an unnecessary well.

11. In some areas of the subject fields, geologic,

engineering, and economic factors justify drilling additional

wells on existing units. In other areas, geologic, engineering

and economic factors may not justify drilling additional wells on

existing units.

CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

1. Due and regular notice of the time, place and

-6-

purpose of the hearing was given to all interested parties as


2. The Board has jurisdiction over the matters covered

by said notice and over all parties interested therein and has

jurisdiction to make and promulgate any order hereinafter set

forth.

3. The Board is authorized to modify its previous

orders to permit additional wells to be drilled within

established units under Utah Code Ann. §40-6-6(4) (1953, as

amended) •

4. An order permitting (a) the drilling of additional

wells on existing units as provided herein and (b) the

simultaneous production of initial wells and additional wells

will prevent the waste of hydrocarbons, prevent the drilling of

unnecessary wells, and protect correlative rights.

ORDER

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED:

To prevent waste of oil, gas and associated liquid

hydrocarbons, to avoid the drilling of unnecessary wells, to

protect correlative rights and to maintain, to the maximum extent

practicable, drilling units of uniform size and shape for the

promotion of more orderly development of the lands described in

Finding of Fact No.3 above, the following order is hereby

promulgated to govern operations in said area effective as of

April 12, 1985:

-7-

A. upon the effective date any and all orders of the

Board heretofore promulgated which are inconsistent with the

orders herein set forth shall be and are hereby vacated to the

extent inconsistent herewith.

B. Additional wells may be drilled, completed, and

produced on established drilling units comprising government

surveyed sections of approximately 640 acres (or other designated

drilling units so long as such unit is at least 400 acres in

size) to a density of no greater than two producing wells on each

unit comprising a section (or other designated unit).

c. Additional wells may be drilled at the option of

the operator of the unit, based upon geologic and engineering

data for that unit which will justify the drilling of an

additional well in order to recover additional oil, provided the

.~ additional well appears to be economically feasible.

D. Economically feasible means that a prudent operator

would have a reasonable opportunity to recover the costs of

drilling, completing, producing and operating the well, plus a

reasonable profit.

E. It is not the intent of this order, in permitting

additional wells to be drilled on established drilling units, to

change or amend the existing contractual rights or relationships,

express or implied, of any parties who share in production or the

proceeds therefrom in the spaced area.

F. Any additional well must be located at least 1,320

feet from the existing well on the unit and not closer than 660

-8-

--

feet from the exterior boundary of the unit. No two wells may be

drilled in any drilling unit within the same governmental quarter

section or equivalent lot.

G. If an operator elects to initially complete a well

solely within producing formations that are separate and distinct

from and not in communication with any other producing formation,

the operator will use reasonable precautions in order that such

well is not completed in any producing formation that may be

effectively drained by any other well.

H. Second or test wells drilled under previous orders

as well as additional wells to be drilled under this order may be

produced simultaneously with initial wells.

I. The Board retains exclusive and continuing

jurisdiction of all matters covered by this order and of all

parties affected thereby and particularly that the Board retains

and reserves exclusive and continuing jurisdiction to make

further orders as appropriate and authorized by statute and

applicable regulations.

ORDER

Docket No. 2012-013

Cause No. 139-90

This Cause came on for hearing before the Utah Board of Oil, Gas and Mining

(the "Board") on Wednesday, April 25, 2012, at approximately 10:30 a.m., in the

Commission Chambers of the Sevier County Administration Building in Richfield. The

following Board members were present and participated at the hearing: Chairman James

T. Jensen, Ruland J. Gill, Jr., Jake Y. Harouny, Kelly L. Payne, Carl F. Kendel and Chris

D. Hansen. Board Member Jean Semborski was unable to attend. The Board was

represented by Michael S. Johnson, Esq., Assistant Attorney General.

" . ~ . ~ .'

Testifying on behalf of Petitioner Newfield Production Company ("Newfield")

were Laura Smith - Land Lead, Steve Adams - Asset Team Lead - Geology, and Mike

Jensen - Engineering Advisor. Said witnesses were recognized by the Board as experts

in petroleum land management, geology and petroleum engineering, respectively, for

purposes of this Cause. Frederick M. MacDonald, Esq., of and for Beatty & Wozniak,

P .C., appeared as attorney for Newfield.

The Division of Oil, Gas and Mining (the "Division") did not file a staff

memorandum in this Cause but nevertheless participated in the hearing. Dustin Doucet,

Petroleum Engineer, asked questions on the Division's behalf. Emily Lewis, Esq.,

Assistant Attorney General, appeared as attorney for the Division. At the conclusion of

Newfield's presentation-in-chief, the Division expressed its support for the granting of

Newfield's Request for Agency Action dated March 8, 2012, as modified by

Modification filed April 9, 2012 (collectively the "Request"), as conformed to the

testimony and other evidence provided at the hearing.

On April 9, 2012, Ms. Jeanne S. Cox, a ranch operator of the surface and an owner

of oil and gas interests within Section 3, Township 2 South, Range 3 West, USM, filed a

letter with the Board not objecting to the Request, but instead outlining her concerns on

the impact of oil and gas operations upon currently producing agricultural lands. Ms.

Cox did not make an appearance at the hearing.

On April 12, 2012, Bill Barrett Corporation ("BBC") and El Paso E&P Company,

L.P. ("EI Paso"), working interest owners and operators within the lands relevant to the

Request, filed letters with the Board expressing their respective support for the granting

of the Request. Similarly, on April 13, 2012, Ute Energy Upstream Holdings LLC ("Ute

Energy"), a working interest owner within the lands relevant to the Request, filed a letter

with the Board expressing its support for the granting of the Request. Neither BBC, El

Paso nor Ute Energy made an appearance at the hearing.

On Apri123, 2012, the Vernal District Office of the United States Bureau of Land

Management ("BLM"), acting in its trust capacity on behalf of the Ute Indian Tribe and

Indian Allottees and as advisor to the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Uintah & Ouray Agency

("BIA"), filed a letter with the Board Secretary expressing its support for the granting of

the Request. No BLM representative made an appearance at the hearing.

At the conclusion of Newfield's presentation-in-chief and the Division's

statement, the Board invited and received statements from Bruce Dart, a surface and oil

and gas owner within the lands relevant to the Request, and from Gordon Moon,

individually as a surface and oil and gas owner within the lands relevant to the Request,

and on behalf of the Utah Royalty Owners Association.

No other party filed a response to the Request and no other party appeared or

participated at the hearing.

The Board, having considered the testimony presented and the exhibits received

into evidence at the hearing, being fully advised, and for good cause, hereby makes the

following findings of fact, conclusions of law and order in this Cause.

FINDINGS OF FACT

1. Newfield is a Texas corporation with its principal place of business for

Rocky Mountain operations in Denver, Colorado. Newfield is duly qualified to conduct

business in the State of Utah, and is fully and appropriately bonded with all relevant

Federal, Indian and State of Utah agencies.

2. By Order entered on August 11, 1971 in Cause No. 131-14 (the "131-14

Order"), the Board established sectional (640-acre or substantial equivalent) drilling units

for the production of oil, gas and associated hydrocarbons from the Lower Green River

and Wasatch formations, defined as follows:

that interval below the stratigraphic equivalent of 9,600 feet depth in the "E" Log of the Carter #2 Bluebell well located in the SWY4NWY4, Section 3, Township 1 South, Range 2 West, U.S.M. (which equivalence is the depth 9,530 feet of the SP curve, Dual Induction Log, run March 15, 1968, in the Chevron #1 Blanchard well located in the NWY4SEY4 of said [Section 3]), to the base of the Green River-Wasatch formations,

for the following Duchesne and Uintah County lands:

Township 2 South, Range 1 West, USM

Sections 19,25 and 27-36 inclusive

4

Township 2 South. Range 2 West. USM

Sections 20-36 inclusive

Township 2 South. Range 3 West, USM

Sections 25-28 and 33-36 inclusive

(the "131-14 Lands"), and ruled only one well may produce on each such unit so

established, which must be located no closer than 1,320 feet from the exterior boundary

of any governmental section; provided, that an exception to said 1,320-foot limitation

may be granted administratively without a hearing where a topographical exception is

deemed necessary.

3. By Order entered on September 20, 1972 in Cause No. 139-8 (the "139-8

Order"), the Board established sectional (640-acre or substantial equivalent) drilling units

for the production of oil, gas and associated hydrocarbons from the Lower Green River-

Wasatch fonnations, defined as follows:

the interval from the top of the Lower Green River formation (TGR3 marker) to the base of the Green River-Wasatch formations (top of Cretaceous), which base is defined as the stratigraphic equivalent of the Dual Induction Log depths of 16,720 feet in the Shell-Ute 1-18B5 well located in the S~NEli4 of Section 18, Township 2 South, Range 5 West, U.S.M., and 16,970 feet in the Shell-Brotherson 1-11B4 well located in the S'l2NEY4 of Section 11, Township 2 South, Range 4 West, U.S.M.,

for the following Duchesne County lands:

5

..






Sections 5-8, 17-20 and 29-32 inclusive

Township 3 South, Range 4 West. USM


Township 4 South, Range 3 West USM

Sections 5 and 6 inclusive



(the "139-8 Lands"), and ruled only one well may produce on each such unit so

established, which must be located in the center of the NE~ with a tolerance of 660 feet

in any direction; provided that an exception to said tolerance may be granted

administratively without a hearing where a topographical exception is deemed needed.

4. By Order entered on October 27, 1983 in Cause No. 131-51 (the "131-51

Order"), the Board extended application of the 131-14 Order to the following Duchesne

County lands:

6

(the "131-51 Lands").





5. The following Duchesne and Uintah County lands are not currently subject

to any order of the Board establishing drilling units for Lower Green River and Wasatch

formation production:


Sections 1-3, 10-15 and 19-36 inclusive

Township 3 South, Range 2 West. USM



Sections 1-4,9-16,21-28 and 33-36 inclusive

(the '~139-8 Extension Lands"). Instead, they are currently only subject to the Board's

and Division's general operational rules, including the general well siting rule (Utah

Admin. Code Rule R649-3-2).

6. The 131-14, 13 9-8 and 131-51 Lands are collectively hereinafter referred to

as the "Existing Spaced Lands." The 139-8 Extension Lands and the Existing Spaced

Lands are collectively hereinafter referred to as the "Subject Lands," and comprise the

lands within what Newfield has designated its "Central Basin Area."

7

7. By Order entered on April 17, 1985 in Cause No. 139-42 (the "139-42

Order"), the Board modified the 131-14 and 139-8 Orders, among other orders, but not

the 131-51 Order, to provide that additional Lower Green River-Wasatch wells may be

drilled, completed, and produced on the established drilling units to a density of no

greater than two producing wells in each unit comprising a section. Additional wells may

be drilled at the option of the operator of the unit based upon geologic and engineering

data for that unit which will justify an additional well in order to recover oil, provided

that said operator would have a reasonable opportunity to recover costs of drilling,

completing, producing and operating a well plus a reasonable profit. Any additional well

must be located at least 1,320 feet from an existing well in the unit and not closer than

660 feet from the exterior boundary of the unit, and no two wells may be drilled in the

same quarter section.

S. By Order entered December 31, 200S in Cause No. 139-S4 (the "139-S4

Order"), the Board further modified the 131-14, 139-8 and 139-42 Orders, among many

other orders applicable to the greater AltamontlBluebell fields, but not the 131-51 Order,

and only as relating to lands other than the Existing Spaced Lands, to allow up to four (4)

producing Lower Green River-Wasatch wells upon each drilling unit established under

said orders, to be drilled at the option of the operator and with the operator's full

discretion as to the development of the hydrocarbon resources; provided that each

additional well shall be no closer than 1,320 feet from an existing unit well completed in

8

and producing from the formations and no closer than 660 feet from the drilling unit

boundary (in essence, eliminating any flrst well siting requirement under the applicable

existing order). The Board did not speciflcally address whether the authorized wells are

to be just vertical/deviated wells or may also include horizontal wells.

9. The mineral estate underlying the Subject Lands is primarily fee (privately)

and Indian (both Tribal and Allotted) owned, with scattered Federal and State of Utah

owned parcels. The Lower Green River and Wasatch formation oil, gas and associated

hydrocarbons are in large part under lease to, or subject to exploration and development

agreements with, Newfield.

10. As relating to the Lower Green River and Wasatch formations, the Board,

in the 139-84 Order, expressly found:

a) [P]roduction occurs from mUltiple, generally low-matrix porosity, thin-bedded sandstones, forming a highly complex series of isolated and discontinuous beds that are randomly distributed vertically over a several thousand-foot interval. Normally, the productive beds are separate and distinct and not in communication with each other [Findings of Fact No. 15];

b) [M]any of the productive beds are not correlatable from well to well and will not afford communication between wells within several hundred feet of one another [Findings of Fact No. 16];

c) [E]vidence from mudweights, pressure data, well logs, and production data show virgin and near virgin zones exist and reserves that otherwise would not be produced will be recovered by the drilling, completion and production of third and fourth wells [Findings of Fact No. 21]; and

9

d) The drilling of increased density wells under existing orders within [the area subject to the 139-84 Order] demonstrates:

• Second wells have recovered in excess of 55 MMBOE of incremental oil to date;

• Second and third wells drilled discovered incremental oil in new reservoirs not intersected by earlier wells;

• Second and third wells do not drain the reserves in the drilling units and are nearing the end of their economic lives;

• The average well drainage area [for the area subject to the 139-84 Order] is approximately 160 acres;

• Some of the reservoirs intersected by second and third wells do communicate with the earlier wells drilled, but also encountered incremental reserves (new reservoirs) that have not been previously encountered and produced;

• Despite some pressure communication between increased density wells with fIrst and subsequent wells in [sic, a] section, there is not overall production interference or production acceleration between wells; and

• Production from second, third, and even fourth wells in section did not adversely affect production in the fIrst and other pre-existing wells producing from the [Lower Green River and Wasatch formations] in the drilling units.

[Findings of Fact No. 22].

In addition, the Board expressly made the following conclusions oflaw:

a) The 640-acre drilling units shall remain a uniform size and shape ... and conform to the predominant pattern in the area established by the [139-42 Order] .... [Conclusion of Law No.5]; and

10

b) An order authorizing the drilling of additional wells, up to four wells in the established drilling units at the option of the operator, ... will promote the public interest, economically increase ultimate maximum recovery, prevent waste, protect correlative rights of all owners, and avoid the drilling of unnecessary wells [Conclusion of Law No. 7].

11. By Order entered on December 6, 2011 in Cause No. 139-87, the Board

extended application of the 139-8 and 139-84 Orders to lands either previously subject to

the 139-8 Order but not subject to the 139-84 Order, or lands previously unspaced,

located in Townships 3 and 4 South, Ranges 5 and 7 West, USM, referred to as the "Lake

Canyon" area, portions of which are directly adjacent to the Subject Lands. The Board

expressly stated the authorized four (4) wells on the sectional Lower Green River-

Wasatch drilling units could be all vertical, all horizontal or a combination of both.

12. The testimony and exhibits received into evidence in Cause Nos. 139-84

and 139-87, and in this Cause, reflect that, as relevant to the Lower Green River and

Wasatch formations underlying the Subject Lands:

a) Geologic and reservoir characteristics of the Lower Green RiverWasatch formations as underlying the Subject Lands are similar and analogous to the adjacent AltamontIBluebelllands already subject to the 139-84 and 139-87 Orders;

b) Geologic and engineering information from the initial wells drilled demonstrate that the recoverable oil and gas will not be effectively drained in a 640-acre drilling unit by one (1) or two (2) wells and an addition of up to four (4) wells per section will tap into smaller productive reservoirs that have geologic and engineering characteristics that prevent one or two wells from draining those resources;

11

c) Many of the productive reservoirs that are drilled do not correlate well from well to well. This geologic characteristic prevents communication between wells at intervals as small as less than 1,000 feet;

d) The reservoir penneability and nature of the fracture components of the reservoir reduces the effect of communication with the sand that do correlate and does not allow for efficient drainage of the hydrocarbon resource;

e) Production data and geologic calculations demonstrate that one or two wells per section do not effectively drain the reservoir and recoverable hydrocarbons can be recovered with up to four wells per section;

f) After more than 35 years of production from these lands and adjacent lands, newly drilled wells are finding reservoir pressures similar to the offsetting wells and sometimes higher than the offsetting wells demonstrating the potential for additional recovery of hydrocarbons in a section;

g) Separate and distinct reservoirs will be found with additional wells drilled in the field and hydrocarbons recovered from new wells can not be recovered with the existing wells in the field;

h) The current orders and rules applicable to the [all of the lands which were the subject of the Cause] allow for operators to shut-in and plug existing wells in the field with potential resources that may not be recovered in order to drill new wells that have higher potential. Waiting for the existing wells to deplete causes economic waste and higher operating expenses which will reduce the ultimate recovery of the hydrocarbons. Surface facilities deteriorate, gas gathering systems are under utilized and run less efficiently, and overall production operating expenses are higher reducing the effective productive life or the field and reduces ultimate recovery; and

i) In some areas of the field based on geologic, engineering and economic factors additional drilling with up to four wells per section

12

will not cause unnecessary wells to be drilled and will allow additional hydrocarbons to be economically produced that would otherwise not be recovered.

13. The following Newfield operated wells, located on the following 139-8

Extension Lands, currently produce from the Lower Green River-Wasatch fonnations:

Although sectional drilling units had not yet formally been established by the Board

inclusive of these lands, all of the leases within the respective sections upon which these

wells are located have already been voluntarily pooled/communitized on a sectional

basis. As a consequence, production from such wells has been and still is being allocated

to all production interest owners within the section pro-rata.

14. In addition, since the filing of the Request, Newfield has drilled the

following two wells within Section 21 of Township 3 South, Range 2 West, USM:

Alzada 11-21-3-2W (vertical)

Thome 4-21-3-2WH (horizontal)

Location

NEY4SWV4

NWV4NWY4 (SHL) SWV4SWV4 (BHL)

417112

still awaiting completion as of the date of the

hearing

The Alzada well has not been completed in the Ute1and Butte member of the Lower

Green River formation, but the Thome well horizontal lateral has been drilled through

14

and will be completed for production in said Uteland Butte member. However, the oil

and gas ownership in Section 21 is divided Indian and fee, and will require a

communitization agreement to create a conforming sectional proration unit. Retroactive

sectional spacing of said Section 21 to April 7, 2012, the date of first production for the

Alzada well, is therefore fair, reasonable and just under the circumstances.

15. Based on the testimony given at the hearing, it appears at least four (4)

wells per section, whether all vertical or all horizontal, or a combination of both, are

required to recover Lower Green River-Wasatch resources from the Subject Lands.

16. A copy of the Request was mailed, postage pre-paid, certified with return

receipt requested, and properly addressed to all mineral, leasehold and production interest

owners in the 139-8 Extension Lands, to all working interest owners and operators

including unleased owners, in the remaining Subject Lands, and to the Utah School of

Institutional Trust Land Administration ("TLA"), the Utah Division of Forestry, Fire and

State Lands ("DFFSL"), the BIA and to the Utah State and Vernal Field Offices of the

BLM. The mailings were sent to said parties at their last addresses disclosed by the

relevant TLA, DFFSL, BIA, BLM and Duchesne and Uintah County realty records.

17. Notice of the filing of the Request and of the hearing thereon was duly

published in the Salt Lake Tribune and the Deseret Morning News on April 8, 2012 and

in the Uintah Basin Standard on April 3 and 10, 2012, and in the Vernal Express on April

4 and 11,2012.

15

18. The vote of the Board members present and participating in the hearing on

this Cause was unanimous (6-0) in favor of granting the Request.

CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

1. Due and regular notice of the time, place and purpose of the hearing was

properly given to all parties whose legally protected interests are affected by the Request

in the form and manner as required by law and the rules and regulations of the Board and

Division.

2. The Board has jurisdiction over all matters covered by the Request and all

interested parties therein, and has the power and authority to render the order herein set

forth pursuant to Utah Code Ann. §§40-6-5(3)(b) and 40-6-6.

3. The Lower Green River-Wasatch formations, as defined in the 139-8 Order,

as underlying the 139-8 Extension Lands constitute a "common source of supply" as that

phrase is defmed in Utah Code Ann. §40-6-2(18).

4. Extension of the 139-8 Order to establish consistent and conforming

sectional drilling units for the 139-8 Extension Lands is therefore appropriate, just and

reasonable under the circumstances.

5. Extension of the 139-84 Order to the Subject Lands, with the additional

clarification that the authorized four (4) wells may be either all vertical, all horizontal, or

a combination of both, will allow for uniform and consistent development of the Lower

16

Green River-Wasatch oil, gas and associated hydrocarbons and is therefore appropriate,

just and reasonable under the circumstances.

6. Granting the requested relief will not adversely impact the existing

voluntary contractual production allocation as outlined in Findings of Fact No. 13 above.

In fact, the granted relief will simply confirm and justify the basis for such allocation.

7. Utah Admin Code Rule R649-3-2(6) establishes sectional "temporary

spacing units" for horizontal wells, but the definition of "temporary spacing units"

contained in Utah Admin Code Rule R649-3-1 expressly provides that "[a] temporary

spacing unit shall not be a drilling unit as provided for in U .C.A. 40-6-6, Drilling Units,

and does not provide a basis for pooling the interest therein as does a drilling unit."

Therefore, an order establishing "permanent" sectional drilling units is required to allow

conforming sectional communitization as relating to the authorized horizontal wells in

accordance with Federal regulations, guidelines and practice and to protect correlative

rights.

8. Federal regulations, guidelines and practice require communitization

agreements to be effective no later than the date of first production. As a consequence,

retroactive spacing of Section 21 of Township 3 South, Range 2 West, USM, to April 7,

2012, the date of first production of the Alzada 11~21-3-2W well, is required and

appropriate under the circumstances.

17

.--

9. The relief granted hereby will result in consistent and orderly development

and the greatest recovery of oil, gas and associated hydrocarbons from the Lower Green

River-Wasatch fonnations underlying the Subject Lands, prevent waste and adequately

protect the correlative rights of all affected parties.

10. Newfield has sustained its burden of proof, demonstrated good cause, and

satisfied all legal requirements for the granting of the Request.

ORDER

Based upon the Request, testimony and evidence submitted, and the findings of

fact and conclusions of law stated above, the Board hereby orders:

1. The Request in this cause is granted.

2. Application of the 139-8 Order is hereby extended to effectively establish

sectional (640-acre or substantial equivalent) drilling units for the production of oil, gas

and associated hydrocarbons from the Lower Green River and Wasatch formations, as

defined in said Order, for the 139-8 Extension Lands described above.

3. Application of the 139-84 Order is hereby extended to all of the Subject

Lands to allow up to four (4) producing Lower Green River-Wasatch wells, whether all

vertical, all horizontal, or a combination of both, upon the sectional drilling units so

established for the 139-8 Extension Lands, as well as the existing sectional drilling units

for the Existing Spaced Lands described above, subject to the same off-set limitations set

18

forth in the 139-84 Order, and with no additional specific quarter section location

requirements for the first well upon such units.

4. As to Section 21 of Township 3 South, Range 2 West, USM, application of

the 139-8 and 139-84 Orders shall be retroactively effective as of April 7,2012.

5. All existing producing wells located on the Subject Lands are hereby

declared to be at legal locations notwithstanding the relief granted herein.

6. All sectional drilling units established andlor modified herein are declared

to be "permanent" for purposes of any authorized horizontal wells drilled thereon.

7. Pursuant to Utah Admin. Code Rules R641 and Utah Code Ann. §63G-4-

204 to 208, the Board has considered and decided this matter as a formal adjudication.

8. This Order is based exclusively on evidence of record in the adjudicative

proceeding or on facts officially noted, and constitutes the signed written order stating the

Board's decision and the reasons for the decision, all as required by the Administrative

Procedures Act, Utah Code Ann. §63G-4-208 and Utah Administrative Code Rule R64l-

109.

9. Notice re: Right to Seek Judicial Review by the Utah Supreme Court or to

Request Board Reconsideration: As required by Utah Code Ann. §63G-4-208(e) - (g),

the Board hereby notifies all parties in interest that they have the right to seek judicial

review of this final Board Order in this formal adjudication by filing a timely appeal with

the Utah Supreme Court within 30 days after the date that this Order issued. Utah Code

19

Ann. §§63G-4-401(3)(a) and 403. As an alternative to seeking immediate judicial

review, and not as a prerequisite to seeking judicial review, the Board also hereby notifies

parties that they may elect to request that the Board reconsider this Order, which

constitutes a final agency action of the Board. Utah Code Ann. §63G-4-302, entitled,

"Agency Review - Reconsideration," states:

(I)(a) Within 20 days after the date that an order is issued for which review by the agency or by a superior agency under Section 63G-4-301 is unavailable, and if the order would otherwise constitute final agency action, any party may file a written request for reconsideration with the agency, stating the specific grounds upon which relief is requested.

(b) Unless otherwise provided by statute, the filing of the request is not a prerequisite for seeking judicial review of the order.

(2) The request for reconsideration shall be filed with the agency and one copy shall be sent by mail to each party by the person making the request.

(3)(a) The agency head, or a person designated for that purpose, shall issue a written order granting the request or denying the request.

(b) If the agency head or the person designated for that purpose does not issue an order within 20 days after the filing of the request, the request for reconsideration shall be considered to be denied.

Id. The Board also hereby notifies the parties that Utah Admin. Code Rule R641-110-

100, which is part of a group of Board rules entitled, "Rehearing and Modification of

Existing Orders," states:

Any person affected by a final order or decision of the Board may file a petition for rehearing. Unless otherwise provided, a petition for rehearing must be filed no later than the 10th day of the month following the date of signing of the final order or decision for which the rehearing is sought. A

20

copy of such petition will be served on each other party to the proceeding no later than the 15th day of the month.

Id. See Utah Admin. Code Ru1e R641-11 0-200 for the required contents of a petition for

Rehearing. If there is any conflict between the deadline in Utah Code Ann. §63G-4-302

and the deadline in Utah Admin. Code Rule R641-110-IOO for moving to rehear this

matter, the Board hereby rules that the later of the two deadlines shall be available to any

party moving to rehear this matter. If the Board later denies a timely petition for

rehearing, the party may still seek judicial review of the Order by perfecting a timely

appeal with the Utah Supreme Court within 30 days thereafter.

10. The Board retains continuing jurisdiction over all the parties and over the

subject matter of this cause, except to the extent said jurisdiction may be divested by the

filing of a timely appeal to seek judicial review of this order by the Utah Supreme Court.

11. For all purposes, the Chainnan's signature on a faxed copy of this Order

shall be deemed the equivalent of a signed original.

R649-3-10. Tolerances for Vertical Drilling.

1. Deviation from the vertical for short distances is permitted in the drilling of a well without special approval to straighten the hole, sidetrack junk, or correct other mechanical difficulties.

2. All wells shall be drilled such that the surface location of the well and all points along the intended well bore shall be within the tolerances allowed by R649-3-2, Location and Siting of Vertical Wells and Statewide Spacing for Horizontal Wells, or the appropriate board order.

R649-3-11. Directional Drilling.

1. Except for the tolerances allowed under R649-3-10, no well may be intentionally deviated unless the operator shall first file application and obtain approval from the division.

1.1. An application for directional drilling may be approved by the division without notice and hearing when the applicant is the owner of all the oil and gas within a radius of 460 feet from all points along the intended well bore, or the applicant has obtained the ""ritten consent of the owner to the proposed directional drilling program.

1.2. An application for directional drilling may be included as part of the initial APD for a proposed well.

2. An application for directional drilling shall include the following information:

2.1. The name and address ofthe operator.

2.2. The lease name, well number, field name, reservoir name, and county where the proposed well is located.

2.3. A plat or sketch showing the distance from the surface location to section and lease lines, the target location within the intended producing interval, and any point along the intended well bore outside the 460 foot radius for which the consent of the owner has been obtained.

2-4. The reason for the intentional deviation.

2.5. The signature of designated agent or representative of operator.

3. Within 30 days following completion of a directionally drilled well, a complete angular deviation and directional survey of the well obtained by an approved well survey company shall be filed with the division, together with other regularly required reports.

REASONS FOR SURFACE HOLE LOCATION PLACEMENT

Reason for Location

- Drilled directionally to avoid having the well pad location on or near FWS Wetlands and Riparian environment.

- Drilled directionally to accommodate topographical features such as large ridge to the south and canal/stream to the north.

- Drilled directionally to accommodate Mr. Vernon Richens' agricultural use of the surface estate directly above the target bottom hole

location. This was a viable and economic way to abide by rule R649-3-38. Surface Owner Protection Act Provisions, Section 3, which states,

"Oil and gas operations shall be conducted in such manner as to prevent unreasonable loss of a surface land owner's crops on surface land,

unreasonable loss of value of existing improvements owned by a surface land owner on surface land, and unreasonable permanent damage to

surface land." (http://utrules.eregulations.us/code/rule/R649-3-38)

- Drilled directionally to:

1) avoid having the well pad location on or near FWS Wetlands and Riparian environment.

2) accommodate Mr. Glen Huber's use of the surface estate directly above the target bottom hole location which he identified as the

premier pasture ground on his property.

- moved off center to minimize crop damage

- remove it from the path of a future pivot

-offset to place the location within the boundaries of a single lot within a platted (though as yet undeveloped) subdivisions, minimizing our

impact to surface owners planned use
