Exploratory drilling operations will be conducted from the surface

s i t e s described In Section (Iv) using the mobile dri l l ing unit des­

cribed In Section (11). Operations will be of a msxlmum duration of

two hundred seventy (270) days.

At the d.-il' site, gaseous emissions will be generated by the rig en­

gines, the ettendant work boat, stand-by boat, crew boat, and helicop­

t e r , and the production testing of possible prospective reservoirs.

Gaseous emissions at the dock site In Venice, Louisiana, will be gener-

eted by the work boat, crew boat and helicopter. Onshore staging for

th is operation will be from existing f a c i l i t i e s , so there w i " be no

signif icant Increase In emissions for this activity. Projected emis­

Exploratory drilling operations will be conducted from the surface

two hundred seventy (270) days.

At the drill site, gaseous emissions will be generated by the rig en­

gines, the attendant work boat, stand-by boat, crew boat, and helicop­

ter, and the production testing of possible prospective reservoirs.

Gaseous emissions at the dock site 1n Venice, Louisiana, will be gener­

ated by the work boat, crew boat and helicopter. Onshore staging for

this operation will be from existing facilities, so there will be no

significant increase in emissions for this activity. Projected emis­

POE will also be conducted in a manner consistent with Louisiana's

approved CZM programs.

GENERAL INFORMATION

P R I N C I P A L PARTS

The Martin No 7 consists ot three principal parts

1 The lower hulls, two barge-Shaped members which provide bouyancy while under tow. stability while on location, and storage for fuel oil and ' ' ' i l l water whi le drilling

2. The platform, a barge-like design, offers support for the derrick substructure, ell dril l ing machinery, and the quarters for 70 persons.

3. The six cylindrical columns join the lower hulls to the platfonn as well as offer space for chain lockers and atorage of bulk mud and cement.

C L A S S I F I C A T I O N

SUBJECT: Site Clearance - South Tiaballer 290 (OCS-G-5644) Propoaed "F* Location

Gulf Coaat Division Geophysicists conclude that no significant shallow d r i l l i n g hasarda exist within 500 feet of the South Tiaballer 290 "F" location (10,680' FNL, 14,280' FEL; W.D. 410').

The reaulta and report of a shallow hazard survey conducted by John E. Chance and Aaaoclates for Sohio Petroleum Coapany over tract 290 have been reviewed. Wa are ln agrceaent with their findings and conclude that:

1) No obstructions are observed on the sea floor within 500 feet of che proposed location.

2) Seisaic data Indicate a thick sequence of parallel beda (over 1,500 feet; dipping southeastward i t approxlaately 40 feet per al le .

3) No faults or gaa accumulations are observed within che upper 1.500 feet below mudline at the proposed location.

Attachments consist of annotated copies of the SMS, pinger, and minialeev* reco-ds for lines 31 and 50 of the hazard survey.
