`the Book as of June 27, 2016 under the “Librarian View” tab at the following web
`
`address: httpzffdiscovery.library.colostate.edufRecordr'.b2286 1 828;’Details.
`
`Attached as Exhibit C is a true and correct copy of a screenshot that I generated of
`
`the bibliographic entry for the Book in CSU Libraries’ ILS software. Attached as
`
`Exhibit D is a true and correct copy of a screenshot that I generated of the item
`
`record for the Book in CSU Libraries’ ILS software.

`
`The title listed in Appendices B, C, and D has a typographical error that
`
`refers to 1995 instead of 1997. However, other information confirms that the
`
`records shown in Appendices B, C, and D refer to the Book. The remainder of the
`
`title shown in Appendices B, C, and D matches the title shown on the cover page
`
`in Appendix A, the subtitle “Maximizing profitability in an environmentally
`
`responsible manner” listed alongside field 246 in Appendices B and C matches the
`
`subtitle shown on the cover page in Appendix A, and the 1997 copyright date in
`
`Appendices B, C, and D matches the 1997 date shown on the copyright page in
`
`Appendix A. Also, the unique identifier “S-A-23B-10-08-001” listed alongside the
`
`first field 945 in Appendix B and near the bottom of Appendix D corresponds to
`
`the number shown on the title page in Appendix A.
`
`5.
`
`CSU Libraries’ records confirm that the Book was catalogued, and therefore
`
`made available to the public, at CSU Libraries on March 14, 2000. Appendix B
`
`shows this date as “03-14-00” in part “|b” alongside the first field 998, and as
`
`2
`

`Page 2 of 26
`
`

`
`“0003 14” in part “|c” alongside the second field 998. The first of these date fields
`
`is user-entered on the day on which a book is catalogued and made available to the
`
`public. The second of these date fields is system-generated on the day on which
`
`the bibliographic record for the Book was created in CSU Libraries’ ILS System
`
`software records, and this date field is not editable. Appendix C also shows these
`
`dates as “CAT DATE 03-14-2000” and “Created: 03-14-2000,” respectively.
`
`Appendix D also shows the second date as “Created: 03- 14-2000.”
`
`6.
`
`Books are made available to the public as soon as they are catalogued, which
`
`often occurs on the same day that they are entered into the CSU Libraries ILS
`
`software, as CSU Libraries’ records show was the case for the Book.
`
`7.
`
`I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

`
`Abstract
`
`An innovative completion design that allows multiple acid fracs
`to be performed in horizontal subsea chalk-formation wells with
`a single trip into the wellbore has recently been codeveloped by
`a major North Sea operator and an oilfield engineering/manufac-
`turing/service company. The project was initiated to develop a
`system that would allow multiple acid stimulations to be effi-
`ciently performed in the shortest possible time in the North Sea
`Joanne Field. The system ultimately developed allows acid
`stimulation of up to 10 different zones in a single trip with no
`through-tubing intervention. The first well in which this new
`technique was used had 7 zones, and 3 additional wells with 10
`zones each were later completed. The development of this system
`and case histories of the first four subsea wells requiring stimula-
`tion will be presented in the paper.
`The key element of the system is a multi-stage acid frac tool
`(MSAF) that is similar to a sliding sleeve circulating device and
`is run in the closed position. Up to 9 MSAF tools can be run in
`the completion with isolation of each zone being achieved by
`hydraulic-set retrievable packers that are positioned on each side
`of an MSAF tool. Each sleeve contains a threaded ball seat with
`the smallest ball seat in the lowest sleeve and the largest ball seat
`
`in the highest sleeve. With this system, stimulation of 10
`separate zones is accomplished in 12-18 hours by a unique
`procedure that lubricates vaiying sized low-specific gravity balls
`into the tubing and then pumps them to a mating seat in the
`appropriate MSAF, thus sealing off the stimulated zone and
`allowing stimulation of the next zone which is made accessible
`by opening the sleeve.
`This technique provided a substantial reduction in the
`operational time normally required to stimulate multiple zones
`
`aga-
`
`97
`
`and allowed the stimulations to be precisely targeted within the
`reservoir. The case history data will provide comparisons in
`operational times between traditional stimulations and this new
`method as well as the significant enhancements to cost efficiency
`that resulted from its use. Additionally, this completion method
`allowed the stimulations to be designed and matched to the
`requirements of each reservoir zone, which provided the most
`cost efficient treatments possible.
`
`Introduction
`
`The Judy/Joanne Fields are located in the central North Sea on
`block 30/7a (commonly known as the J Block of the UK North
`Sea), 280 kilometers South East of Aberdeen. The water depth
`is approximately 80 meters.
`The complete field development consists of a 24-slot
`platform for Judy and a 12-slot subsea template for Joanne.
`Production from the Joanne subsea manifold is transported
`through two 12-inch pipelines, 5—kilometers in length, to the Judy
`platform.
`To date, five Joanne subsea wells have been drilled and
`completed, four of which were in chalk formations, and thus,
`comprehensive acid stimulation programs were required for their
`completions.Figure 1 is a map showing the location of the J-
`Block Judy/Joanne Fields.
`
`Well Design
`Phillips‘ original plan had been to drill 60—degree wells in these
`fields; however, since drilling horizontal wells would allow a
`reduction in the number of well slots, which would subsequently
`reduce overall drilling costs, the decision was made to complete
`horizontally. Additionally, it was felt that stimulation programs
`would be necessary to achieve the necessary production poten-
`tials. The new wells were designed to intersect the most produc-
`tive reservoir layers twice to further maximize production.
`Ideally, each reservoir layer was to be stimulated using a design
`developed for its specific needs. Thus, it would be necessary to
`perform multiple stimulations targeted at the reservoir layers.
`Figure 2 shows how the well path would intersect the individual
`reservoir layers.
`A review of similar completions carried out by Phillips and
`other operators indicated that each zone would require between
`three to four days to stimulate. This would have meant a
`minimum of thirty days per well to complete the stimulation

`
`procedures. From the initial review, it was clear that the project
`could not support such greatly increased costs, and thus, an
`alternative method was needed. The resulting completion design
`was based on earlier completions performed by Phillips on the
`Hewett Field in the Southern UKCS. During these completions,
`the initial development phase of the Multi Stage Acid Frac Tool
`(MSAF) had taken place. This tool was instrumental in the
`success of the design, and will be described in more detail later.
`The primary difference in the completion designs concerned
`the number of zones stimulated. The Hewett Field completions
`typically used only two MSAF tools that resulted in 3 stimulated
`zones, whereas the first Joanne completion (well M1) utilized six
`MSAF tools and the completions for wells M3, M4, and M5
`used nine MSAF tools. Figure 3 is a schematic of a typical
`Joanne completion.
`
`Typical Joanne Completion Design
`1.
`5-1/8-in. Tubing Hanger. Horizontal (lateral) sub-sea trees
`were used to allow the completions to be run through them. The
`final operation prior to leaving the wells was the installation of
`wireline—set, metal-to-metal-sealing wellhead plugs in the tubing
`hangers.
`
`51/2-in. Tubing Retrievable Safety Valve (TRSV). A non-
`2.
`equalizing TRSV with metal-to— metal seals was used to ensure
`reliability.
`
`41/2-in. x 11/2-in. Side Pocket Mandrel (SPM). These
`3.
`were run with blanked off annulus ports to enable electronic
`memory gauges with the same envelope dimensions as a standard
`1‘/2-in. gas lift valve to be installed in the completions during the
`stimulation without compromising full bore access. These gauges
`were run and retrieved using conventional gas-lift kick—over tools
`and gave valuable bottomhole information during the stimula-
`tions, clean—up procedures, and well tests.
`
`4‘/2-in. Sliding Sleeve Circulating Devices. The SSD's
`4.
`were run to enable the upper completion/casing annulus to be
`circulated to inhibited brine.
`
`30-ft.-Stroke Polished Bore Receptacle (PBR) / Seal
`5.
`Assembly with Annular Pressure Release. Tubing calculations
`for operational conditions, particularly high volume acid
`stimulation and well testing, showed that a 30-ft. stroke expan-
`sion device was necessary. Ryton®/Teflon® /Ryton®(RTR).‘
`premium seals were considered the most appropriate seals for the
`operating conditions that would be faced.
`
`A molded seal was added to the RTR premium seals to
`ensure good sealing at the lower temperatures expected during
`stimulation.
`
`A conventional shear—pinned PBR/seal assembly was used
`on M1 but concerns over induced torque led to the design of a
`special, annular pressure release that fitted on top of the
`PBR/seal assembly. In the closed (running) position, the PBR
`
`and seal assembly were clutched together to handle applied or
`induced torque. As a back up, it had a secondary shear-screw
`release mechanism that was isolated from any torque that could
`be applied or induced.
`
`6. and 9. 7-in. Permanent/7-in. Retrievable Packer (Multi.
`ple). An important requirement in completions using multiple
`hydraulic—set packers is that no mandrel movement in relation to
`the slips of the packer should occur while setting. This enables
`any number of hydraulic—set packers to be set simultaneously
`without the requirement for expansion devices between the
`packers to account for mandrel movement. The packer selected
`for this project was a new hydraulic-set retrievable packer that
`had its first usage on the Joanne project (Fig. 4).
`The packer could be set up as either a permanent or a
`retrievable packer simply by installing a lock ring (permanent) or
`installing up to 16 shear screws (retrievable). When set up in the
`permanent mode, the packer could be retrieved by chemically
`cutting the mandrel.
`This packer had large outside-diameter (OD) gauge rings at
`either end, which kept the other components of the packer from
`contacting the 7-in. liner. The packer elements and slips had a
`smaller OD in the running position than the adjacent parts. After
`completion of the first well (M1), the gauge rings were fluted to
`assist in fluid by-pass while the completion was installed in the
`liner.
`
`7. Selective Landing Nipple. This nipple was run below the
`top packer as a contingency in case there were problems during
`installation of the completion and for use in future workover
`operations.
`
`8. 41/2-in. Multi Stage Acid Frac Tool (MSAF) [Multiple].
`This tool is the "heart" of the completion system.
`It is a sliding
`sleeve device that can allow communication between the tubing
`and annulus once the sleeve is moved to the open position. A
`ball seat is threaded on the bore of this sleeve, and when the
`correct size ball lands on the ball seat, applied pressure from
`above moves the sleeve to the down/open position. The ball and
`seat form a seal that prevents pumped fluid from entering lower
`zones, and thereby, diverts the fluid through the tool and into the
`tubing liner annulus. The MSAF tool is shown in both the closed
`and open positions in Figure 5.
`For 41/2—in. tubing, up to nine different ball/seat configura-
`tions can be used (see Table 1). The smallest ID seat is run at
`the bottom of the completion, and the largest ID seat is run at the
`top.
`
`The sleeve in the MSAF was designed with an opening
`profile and a closing profile so that the tool could be selectively
`opened or closed as required during workovers. A hydraulically
`operated shifting tool run on coiled tubing was designed for this
`purpose. Note that in the tool version used on Joanne, the ball
`seats must be milled out before the shifting tool can be used.

`10. Pump Out/Cycle Plug. On M1, a conventional shear—out
