RE: TW Well Connects

Mark:

I called Tommy Edwards(713-209-1112) with Cima yesterday morning and talked with him about his plans for the new interconnect he has proposed. They have completed 1 well and will drill up to 4 more development wells, in the near future. The location he verified is Sec. 31, T19S, R21E, Eddy County, New Mexico. He called us wanting an I/C, because the old map he was using indicated that Enron owned the lines. The problem is that these were the gathering lines that we sold to Agave 5-6 years ago. We still own the Atoka #1, 2 & 3 gathering compression units and the main branch lines, but these wells will have to be connected to the Agaves Gathering system. I spent some time looking at this yesterday afternoon and have not relayed this information to him. Please call me to discuss any concerns, before you call Tommy.

Mark:
I have talked with Jennifer Greenwell about the Nadel & Gussman, Buffalo Hunt # 21 well to be drilled starting on or around October 15, 2001. The target is the Atoka Morrow formation with expected volumes of about .5 to 1.0 mmbtu/d with a working pressure of 600 psig. The well location is about a mile off of our 24" WTX Lateral at Mile Post 28.5 south of Station # 9. N&G will have to set a small compressor to get into TW, because the line pressures are in the range of 750 - 950 psig. The alignment sheets do not indicate an existing tap on either of our lines, a new hot tap will be required for connection. The volumes are so small that it appears it might be more cost effective to lay the 5 mile of line pipe to Agave. The following are the results of a discussion I had with the Earl (E&C) on the costs required to connect to our system.

Hot Tap and EFM $75,000
H2S & H2O $24,000
Unknowns $30,000
Totals $129,000

Basically, the range is around the $100K to $130K level. I will need to verify with the Carlsbad Team about the project if it looks like a go. Jennifer was going to use the numbers to figure her cost/benefit analysis for choosing TW or Agave. My recommendation would be to go to Agave, if she can justify the costs for 5 miles of line.

Mark, Perry will be your direct contact on these projects.

Perry,
Please provide location and avaliable tap information to Mark. I have left a message for
Mark to see if he will need Planning to provide Level A Cost estimates. It is OK to contact the
producers directly.
