NEWFIELD PRODUCTION COMPANYUTE TRIBAL 4-28-4-2

NWINW (LOT #4) SECTION 28, T4S, R2WDUCHESNE COUNTY, UTAH

ONSHORE ORDER NO. 1

MULTI-POINT SURFACE USE & OPERATIONS PLAN

L EXISTING ROADS

See attached Topographic Map "A"

To reach Newfield Production Company well location site Ute Tribal 4-28-4-2 located in the NW1/4NW 1/4 Section 28, 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 southeasterly - 5.4 miles ± to it's junctionwith an existingroad to the southwest; proceed southwesterly -0.5 miles ± to it's junctionwith the beginning ofthe proposed access road to the west; proceed along the proposed access road -- 2.2 miles ± to theproposed 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 11,810'of access road is proposed for the proposed well. See attachedTopographic Map "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/0R 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 surface equipment will be painted Carlsbad. All facilities will be painted within sixmonths of installation.

5. LOCATION AND TFPE OF WATERSUPPLY

Newfield Production will transport water by truck for drilling purposes from the following watersources:

Johnson Water DistrictWater Right : 43-7478

Neil Moon PondWater Right: 43-11787

Maurice Harvey PondWater Right: 47-1358

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 the processed 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, T9SRl9E), 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.

All pits will be fenced according to the followingminimum 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 junknot 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

Regional/Local Setting & Topography

The proposed location is approximately 9 road miles southwest of Myton, UT in a sub-drainage of Pleasant Valley

Wash which drains into the Pariette Draw drainage of Duchesne County. Both of these draws contain perennial

streams somewhat consisting of irrigation runoff and seepage. Pariette Draw runs into the Green River

approximately 6 miles downstream from Ouray, Utah and about 13 miles downstream from the location. Broad

flats with those in lower Pleasant Valley frequently used for agriculture characterize the area. Flats are intersected

by drainages with gentle to moderate side slopes. Access is by State, County and existing or planned oil field

development roads. Two thousand and seventy feet of new road will be constructed to reach the location.

The proposed Ute Tribal 4-28-4-2 oil well location is in the non-irrigated area of upper Pleasant Valley. It is on a

gentle rolling terrain primarily sloping to the northeast. A swale exists to the south that runs westerly and joins a

larger swale that continues to the north. No drainages intersect the location and no diversions will be needed.

Irrigated field are approximately 1-1/2 miles to the northeast. No springs, streams, seeps or ponds are known to

exist in the immediate area.

The surface is private, owned by Mr. Clinton Moon. A surface use agreement exists. The minerals are owned by

the United States Government and held in trust for the Ute Indian Tribe. Mr. James Hereford of the BLM, who

represent the Tribe, was invited by telephone to the pre-site. He did not attend

Surface Statement of BasisThe proposed location is approximately 9 road miles southwest of Myton, UT in a sub-drainage of PleasantValley Wash which drains into the Pariette Draw drainage of Duchesne County. Both of these draws containperennial streams somewhat consisting of irrigation runoff and seepage. Pariette Draw runs into the GreenRiver approximately 6 miles downstream from Ouray, Utah and about 13 miles downstream from the location.Broad flats with those in lower Pleasant Valley frequently used for agriculture characterize the area. Flats areintersected by drainages with gentle to moderate side slopes. Access is by State, County and existing or plannedoil field development roads. Two thousand and seventy feet of new road will be constructed to reach thelocation.

The proposed Ute Tribal 4-28-4-2 oil well location is in the non-irrigated area of upper Pleasant Valley. It is ona gentle rolling terrain primarily sloping to the northeast. A swale exists to the south that runs westerly andjoins a larger swale that continues to the north. No drainages intersect the location and no diversions will beneeded. Irrigated field are approximately 1-1/2 miles to the northeast. No springs, streams, seeps or ponds areknown to exist in the immediate area.

The surface is private, owned by Mr. Clinton Moon. A surface use agreement exists. The minerals are ownedby the United States Government and held in trust for the Ute Indian Tribe. Mr. James Hereford of the BLM,who represent the Tribe, was invited by telephone to the pre-site. He did not attend
