  • Gas Disposition Options • Gas pipeline alternatives

    .:. Other industry processes such as Compressed Natural Gas

    (CNG), Electrical Generation, Gas-to-Liquids (GTL) or Gas

    Injection ~ All require (high' capital investment ($ 2,000M- $10,000M+ vs. $ 700M)

    ~ Longer time frame than current estimate for pipeline (up to years vs. a few weeks) ~

    .:. Lease use ~ Well is expected to produce more than equipment needs

    ~ Current production> 100 mcf/d, expected usage 20 mcf/d

    • Gas pipeline (preferred option) .:. Infrastructure in area

    .:. tV4 weeks for construction

    .:. Cost effective tV $700M

  • Flaring justification • Formation damage with shutting-in well

    .:. Reduction in ultimate recovery ~ Dehydration of gelled hydraulic fracture fluid still in formation

    ~ Crushing of proppant in hydraulic fractures given apparent over-pressure in lower Wasatch

    • Economic impact of shutting in well .:. Reduction in net present value

    ~ Example 1: 3 months shut-in would result in 6% lower present value of current completed interval

    .:. Risk of not returning well to original productivity ~ Example 2: 3 months shut-in with 90% of well's rate prior to shut-in would result

    in loss of EUR and reduction of present value by 20%

    ~ Example 3: 3 months shut-in with 75% of well's rate prior to shut-in would results in loss of EUR and reduction of present value by 39%

    ~ Examples assume a flat $95/bbl oil and $3.50/mmcf gas price
