shall be performed to insure adequate isolation and stabilization of the surface casing.

5. MINIMUM SPECIFICATIONS FOR PRESSURE


Ten Point Well Program &Thirteen Point Well ProgramPage 3 of4

The operator's minimum specifications for pressure control equipment are as follows:

An 8" Double Ram Hydraulic unit with a closing unit will be utilized. Function test of BOP's willbe check daily.

Refer to Exhibit C for a diagram of BOP equipment that will be used on this well.

6. TYPE AND CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PROPOSED CIRCULATION MUDS:

From surface to ±350 feet will be drilled with an air/mist system. The air rig is equipped with a 6½" blooie line that is straight run and securely anchored. The blooie line is used with a dischargeless than 100 ft from the wellbore in order to minimize the well pad size. The blooie line is notequipped with an automatic igniter or continuous pilot light and the compressor is located lessthan 100 ft from the well bore due to the low possibility of combustion with the air dust mixture.The trailer mounted compressor (capacity of 2000 CFM) has a safety shut-off valve which islocated 15 feet from the air rig. A truck with 70 bbls of water is on stand by to be used as killfluid, if necessary. From about ±350 feet to TD, a fresh water system will be utilized. Clayinhibition and hole stability will be achieved with a KCl substitute additive. This additive will beidentified in the APD and reviewed to determine if the reserve pit shall be lined. This fresh watersystem will typically contain Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) of less than 3000 PPM. Anticipatedmud weight is 8.4 lbs/gal. If necessary to control formation fluids or pressure, the system will beweighted with the addition of bentonite gel, and if pressure conditions warrant, with barite

No chromate additives will be used in the mud system on Federal and/or Indian lands withoutprior BLM approval to ensure adequate protection of fresh aquifers.

No chemicals subject to reporting under SARA Title III in an amount equal to or greater than10,000 pounds will be used, produced, stored, transported, or disposed of annually in associationwith the drilling, testing, or completing of this well. Furthermore, no extremely hazardoussubstances, as defined in 40 CFR 355, in threshold planning quantities, will be used, produced,stored, transported, or disposed of in association with the drilling, testing, or completing of thiswell.

Hazardous substances specifically listed by the EPA as a hazardous waste or demonstrating acharacteristic of a hazardous waste will not be used in drilling, testing, or completion operations.

Newfield Production will visually monitor pit levels and flow from the well during drillingoperations.

7. AUXILIARY SAFETY EQUIPMENT TO BE USED:

Auxiliary safety equipment will be a Kelly Cock, bit float, and a TIW valve with drill pipethreads.

8. TESTING, LOGGING AND CORING PROGRAMS:

The logging program will consist of a Dual Induction, Gamma Ray and Caliper log from TD tobase of surface casing @300' +/-, and a CompensatedNeutron-Formation Density Log from TDto 3500' +-. A cement bond log will be run from PBTD to cement top. No drill stem testing orcoring is planned for this well.

9. ANTICIPATED ABNORMAL PRESSURE OR TEMPERATURE:

No abnormal temperatures or pressures are anticipated. No hydrogen sulfide has been encounteredor is known to exist from previous drilling in the area at this depth. Maximum


Ten Point Well Program &Thirteen Point Well ProgramPage 4 of 4

bottombole pressure will approximately equal total depth in feet multiplied by a 0.433 psilfootgradient.

10. ANTICIPATED STARTING DATE AND DURATION OF THE OPERATIONS:

It is anticipated that the drilling operations will commence the third quarter of 20 10, and takeapproximately seven (7) days from spud to rig

NEWFIELD PRODUCTION COMPANYUTE TRIBAL 3-16-4-2

NEINW SECTION 16, T4S, R2WDUCHESNE COUNTY, UTAH

ONSHORE ORDER NO. 1

MULTI-POINT SURFACE USE & OPERATIONS PLAN

1. EXISTING ROADS

See attached Topographic Map "A"

To reach Newfield Production Company well location site Ute Tribal 3-16-4-2 located in the NE1/4 NW 1/4 Section 16, T4S, R2W, Duchesne County, Utah:

Proceed southwesterly out of Myton, Utah along Highway 40 - 1.4 miles ±to the junctionof thishighway and UT State Hwy 53; proceed in a southwesterlydirection approximately 4.0 miles toit's junctionwith an existing road to the east; proceed in a easterly direction approximately 0.6miles to it's junctionwith the beginning of the proposed access road to the north; proceednortherly along the proposed access road approximately 630' to the proposed well location.

The aforementioned dirt oil field service roads and other roads in the vicinity are constructed outof existing native materials that are prevalent to the existing area they are located in and rangefrom clays to a sandy-clay shale material.

The roads for access during the drilling, completion and production phase will be maintained at thestandards required by the State of Utah, or other controlling agencies. This maintenance willconsist of some minor grader work for smoothing road surfaces and for snow removal. Anynecessary fill material for repair will be purchase and hauled from private sources.

2. PLANNED ACCESS ROAD

Approximately 630'of access road is proposed for the proposed well. See attached TopographicMap "B".

The proposed access road will be an 18' crown road (9' either side of the centerline) with drainageditches along either side of the proposed road whether it is deemed necessary in order to handleany run-off from normal meteorological conditions that are prevalent to this area. The maximumgrade will be less than 8%.

There will be no culverts required along this access road. There will be barrow ditches andturnouts as needed along this road.

There are no fences encountered along this proposed road. There will be no new gates or cattleguards required.

All construction material for this access road will be borrowed material accumulated duringconstruction of the access road.

3. LOCATION OF EXISTING WELLS

Refer to Exhibit "B".

4. LOCATION OF EXISTING AND/OR PROPOSED


There are no existing facilities that will be used by this well.

It is anticipated that this well will be a producing oil well.

Upon construction of a tank battery, the well pad will be surrounded by a dike of sufficientcapacity to contain at minimum 110% of the largest tank volume within the facility battery.

Tank batteries will be built to State specifications.

All permanent (on site for six (6) months or longer) structures, constructed or installed (includingpumping units), will be painted a flat, non-reflective, earth tone color to match one of the standardenvironmental colors, as determined by the Rocky Mountain Five State Interagency Committee.All facilities will be painted within six months of installation.

5. LOCATION AND TYPE OF WATER SUPPLY

Newfield Production will transport water by truck from nearest water source as determined by aNewfield representative for the purpose of drilling the above mentioned well. The available watersources are as follows:

Johnson Water DistrictWater Right : 43-7478

Neil Moon PondWater Right: 43-11787

Newfield Collector WellWater Right: 41-3530 (A30414DV, contracted with the Duchesne County Conservancy District).

There will be no water well drilled at this site.

6. SOURCE OF CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS

All construction material for this location shall be borrowed material accumulated duringconstruction of the location site and access road.

A mineral material application is not required for this location.

7. METHODS FOR HANDLING WASTE DISPOSAL

A small reserve pit (90' x 40' x 8' deep, or less) will be constructed from native soil and claymaterials. The reserve pit will receive theprocessed drill cutting (wet sand, shale & rock)removed from the wellbore. Any drilling fluids, which do accumulate in the pit as a result ofshale-shaker carryover, cleaning of the sand trap, etc., will be promptly reclaimed. All drillingfluids will be fresh water based, typically containing Total Dissolved Solids of less than 3000PPM. No potassium chloride, chromates, trash, debris, nor any other substance deemed hazardouswill be placed in this pit. Therefore, it is proposed that no synthetic liner be required in the reservepit. However, if upon constructing the pit there is insufficient fine clay and silt present, a liner willbe used for the purpose of reducing water loss through percolation.

Newfield requests approval that a flare pit not be constructed or utilized on this location.

A portable toilet will be provided for human waste.

A trash basket will be provided for garbage (trash) and hauled away to an approved disposal site atthe completion of the drilling


Immediately upon first production, all produced water will be confined to a steel storage tank. Ifthe production water meets quality guidelines, it is transported to the Ashley, Monument Butte,Jonah, and Beluga water injection facilities by company or contract trucks. Subsequently, theproduced water is injected into approved Class H wells to enhance Newfield's secondary recoveryproject.

Water not meeting quality criteria, is disposed at Newfield's Pariette #4 disposal well (Sec. 7, T9SRI9E), State of Utah approved surface disposal facilities, or Federally approved surface disposalfacilities.

8. ANCILLARY FACILITIES

There are no ancillary facilities planned for at the present time and none foreseen in the nearfuture.

9. WELL SITE LAYOUT

See attached Location Layout Sheet.

Fencing Requirements

All pits will be fenced according to the following minimum standards:

a) A 39-inch net wire shall be used with at least one strand of barbed wire on top of the net.

b) The net wire shall be no more than two (2) inches above the ground. The barbed wireshall be three (3) inches above the net wire. Total height of the fence shall be at leastforty-two (42) inches.

c) Corner posts shall be centered and/or braced in such a manner to keep tight at all times

d) Standard steel, wood or pipe posts shall be used between the corner braces. Maximumdistance between any two posts shall be no greater than sixteen (16) feet.

e) All wire shall be stretched, by using a stretching device, before it is attached to the cornerposts.

The reserve pit fencing will be on three (3) sides during drilling operations and on the fourth sidewhen the rig moves off location. Pits will be fenced and maintained until cleanup.

Existing fences to be crossed by the access road will be braced and tied off before cutting so as toprevent slacking in the wire. The opening shall be closed temporarily as necessary duringconstruction to prevent the escape of livestock, and upon completion of construction the fenceshall be repaired to BLM specifications.

10. PLANS FOR RESTORATION OF SURFACE:

a) Producing Location

Immediately upon well completion, the location and surrounding area will be cleared of all unusedtubing, equipment, debris, material, trash and junk not required for production.

The reserve pit and that portion of the location not needed for production facilities/operations willbe recontoured to the approximated natural contours. Weather permitting, the reserve pit will bereclaimed within one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of well completion. Before any dirtwork takes place, the reserve pit must have all fluids and hydrocarbons removed.

b) Dry Hole Abandoned


At such time as the well is plugged and abandoned, the operator shall submit a subsequent reportof abandonment and the State of Utah will attach the appropriate surface rehabilitation conditionsof approval.

12. OTHER ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Newfield Production Company requests 630' of disturbed area be granted to allow for constructionof the planned access road. Refer to Topographic Map "B". A permanent width of 30' and arunning surface of 18' is proposed for the planned access road. The construction phase of theplanned access road will last approximately (5) days. The planned access road will be an 18'crown road (9' either side of the centerline) with drainage ditches along either side of the proposedroad whether it is deemed necessary in order to handle any run-off from normal meteorologicalconditions that are prevalent to this area. The maximum grade will be less than 8%. There will beno culverts required along this access road. There will be barrow ditches and turnouts as neededalong this road. There are no fences encountered along this proposed road. There will be no newgates or cattle guards required. All construction material for this access road will be borrowedmaterial accumulated during construction of the access road.

Newfield Production Company requests 630' of disturbed area be granted for construction of theproposed gas lines. It is proposed that the disturbed area will temporarily be 50' wide to allow forconstruction of a 6" gas gathering line, and a 3" poly fuel gas line, with a permanent width of 30'upon completion of the proposed gas lines. The construction phase of the proposed gas lines willlast approximately (5) days. Both proposed lines will tie in to the existing pipeline infrastructure.Refer to Topographic Map "C."

Newfield Production Company requests 630' of disturbed area be granted to allow for constructionof the proposed water lines. It is proposed that the disturbed area will temporarily be 50' wide toallow for construction of a buried 3" steel water injection line and a buried 3" poly water returnline and 30' wide upon completion of the proposed water lines. Both proposed lines will tie in tothe existing pipeline infrastructure. Refer to Topographic Map "C." In the event that theproposed well is converted to a water injection well, a separate injection permit will be applied forthrough the proper agencies.

a) Newfield Production Company is responsible for informing all persons in the area whoare associated with this project that they will be subject to prosecution for knowinglydisturbing historic or archaeological sites, or for collecting artifacts.

Regional/Local Setting & Topography

The proposed location is approximately 6.0 road miles southwest of Myton, UT in the South Myton Bench or

Pleasant Valley area. Drainages in the area run northerly toward the Duchesne River about 3 miles away but are

intercepted by the Gray Mountain and Pleasant Valley Irrigation Canals. Broad flats and rolling hills with those

near the edge of the bench becoming steep and intersected with draws, characterize the area. Access is by State,

County and planned or existing oil field development roads. Approximately 630 feet of new construction across

Moon’s private land will be required to reach the location.

The proposed Ute Tribal 3-16-4-2 oil well pad is on a flat with a subtle slope to the northwest. No drainages

intersect the location and no diversions are required. Excavation and fills for the pad are less than 3.3 feet. No

springs, streams or seeps are known to exist in the immediate area. The selected site appears to be a good location

for constructing a pad, drilling and operating a well.

Mr. Clinton Moon and his wife Donette Moon own the surface of the location. The BLM contacted Mr. Moon by

telephone and invited him to the pre-site visit. He said he would not attend. A signed landowner agreement exists.

The minerals are owned by the United States Government and held in trust for the Ute Indian Tribe.

Access is by State,County and planned or existing oil field development roads. Approximately 630 feet of new construction acrossMoon's private land will be required to reach the location.

The proposed Ute Tribal 3-16-4-2 oil well pad is on a flat with a subtle slope to the northwest. No drainagesintersect the location and no diversions are required. Excavation and fills for the pad are less than 3.3 feet. Nosprings, streams or seeps are known to exist in the immediate area. The selected site appears to be a goodlocation for constructing a pad, drilling and operating a well.

Mr. Clinton Moon and his wife Donette Moon own the surface of the location. The BLM contacted Mr. Moonby telephone and invited him to the pre-site visit. He said he would not attend. A signed landowner agreementexists. The minerals are owned by the United States Government and held in trust for the Ute Indian Tribe.Acting for the Ute Indian Tribe, Ms. Christine Cimiluca and Ms. Cheryl Laroque of the BLM attended thepre-site evaluation. They specified the color of paint the facilities were to be painted and had no surfaceconcerns. Reclamation will be as contained in the Surface Use Plan.
