ONSHORE PROJECT EXPERIENCE

TSB develops accurate well P&A, decommissioning, removal and remediation (DR&R) cost estimates for

assessing the current financial risk related to up-stream onshore assets. TSB’s assessments of liability

are intended to meet the requirements of the US Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement

of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143 “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” (SFAS

143).

Examples of projects involving development of DR&R costs include:

• All of the petroleum and geothermal energy production facilities owned or operated by Unocal

worldwide, including annual updates.

• All of the upstream petroleum facilities operated by BP in the US Lower 48 States and Trinidad. Project has included development of a comprehensive database for cataloging results, generating reports and tracking changes.

• BP’s Badami oil processing facility on Alaska’s North Slope.

• ChevronTexaco’s Gaviota sour oil and gas processing facility in California.

• The Atlantic Liquefied Natural Gas facility in Trinidad for the owners’ consortium.

• Numerous individual fields and facilities operated by independent oil and gas companies,

including: Anadarko, El Paso, Pure Oil, Samson Contour, Sterling Energy, Stone Energy, Swift Energy, and others.

• Completed a five-phase consulting project for Cairn Energy India. The project consisted of

conducting separate complete removal decommissioning liability assessments for both of Cairn’s India east coast and west coast offshore platforms (including the pipeline and wells) and onshore processing facility assets. Also provided a field valuation study developing replacement costs for Cairn’s east coast onshore and offshore assets. The studies included researching India and international decommissioning regulations and recommending decommissioning practices for Cairn as previously recommended for the Oil and Gas Company of India.

• TSB completed a study for Repsol YPF Trinidad & Tobago providing the decommissioning liability

assessment for platforms, pipelines and wells for three fields off the coast of Trinidad and for

onshore facilities on Trinidad. The offshore assessment included complete removal and various reefing options / removal methods. The study included researching Trinidad and international

decommissioning regulations and recommending decommissioning practices for Repsol which

will comply with the highest international standards.


COST ESTIMATION TECHNIQUES

TSB has developed a comprehensive computer-based Platform Abandonment Estimating System (

PAES™) which takes advantage of the company's substantial hands-on experience in this area. This

software was developed by TSB and accesses a resource data base of actual decommissioning project

costs and algorithms to develop the decommissioning cost estimates. The PAES™ system contains

thousands of decommissioning cost estimates for the Gulf of Mexico, North Sea, Gulf of Thailand and

other areas spanning over 20 years. The database provides unique opportunities for trend analysis and

insight into decommissioning projects which is unmatched in the industry.

PAES™ allows the experienced user to evaluate a particular abandonment project and select the

required operations for implementing the work. When the necessary work activities and required equipment are determined, the system calculates the most likely cost. PAES™ extracts the most likely

duration and cost for each activity from the database using interpolation and extrapolation methods which

adjust for the specific conditions of a particular project. In addition to time and resource requirements,

PAES™ contains the most current equipment and labor rates available. The result is a very good estimate of

field abandonment cost. The system applies conventional estimating procedures to achieve a single cost

number, to which a contingency is applied for the purposes of arriving at the final budget figure.

Most decommissioning projects are quite complex due to numerous unknown conditions such as downhole

well problems. In order to accurately assess these risks it is desirable to know the entire range of possible

cost for field abandonment, as well as the confidence limits on the estimate (with or without the

contingency). This can only be done by application of probabilistic methods in the cost estimating process.

TSB uses probabilistic techniques to provide a more complete evaluation of the possible decommissioning

project cost.

DECOMMISSIONING PROJECT MANAGEMENT EXPERTISE

As a major business focus, TSB consults for, supervises, manages, and otherwise supports

TSB PROJECT MANAGEMENT HIGHLIGHTS: OFFSHORE PROJECTS

EXPERIENCE OF WELL P&A ASSOCIATED WITH DOWNED PLATFORMS:

Following hurricane Katrina, an Independent Operator in the Gulf of Mexico suffered the loss of 5 platforms

and the corresponding 50 wells. TSB developed the inspection scope of work and gathered all data. A

schedule and plan was developed to cover a seven (7) year period in order to optimize spending and minimize

weather. The wells were to be permanently abandoned, pipelines abandoned, decks recovered and the

jackets reefed in-place. With TSB as project manager and utilizing its in-house expertise, as of 2011

three (3) of the toppled decks have been removed with the jackets reefed in place and twenty-five (25)

wells have been permanently abandoned. The project is on schedule with an expected completion date of

2012.


TSB successfully managed the well P&A of two downed wells at West Delta 137. The 4-pile structure was toppled during Hurricane Katrina. TSB provided all well P&A engineering, including written procedures and preparation of wellbore schematics and regulatory permitting. TSB chartered a DP vessel with saturation system, GPS and observation ROV. TSB supervised all aspects of well intervention, topside and underwater mechanical and abrasive cutting, the flushing and abandonment of the two (2) associated pipelines, wedding cake, hot tapping and installation of well trees and the final well plug and abandonment operations.

were flushed and abandoned in-place in June 2009. The four (4) wells were plugged and abandoned in

November 2009. The deck, equipment and jacket were recovered to surface in March of 2010. Site

Clearance Verification activities were completed in August of 2010.


CONVERSION & REINSTALLATION EI 298 A to SM 133 A:

TSB provided the full range of project and construction management services necessary to bring this field

into production, excluding drilling and well completion. TSB provided an initial evaluation of available

facilities for conversion, developed the execution plan for removing the Eugene Island 298 "A" jacket and

deck and reinstalling them at SM 133 after conversion. TSB assisted the companies with sale/purchase of

the platform, managed the P & A and decommissioning of the facilities, salvaged and refurbished the

facilities, removed and reinstalled the jacket, reinstalled the deck, and managed the hook-up and

commissioning. The jacket was relocated from the old site to the new via derrick barge towing - it was

never taken to shore.

The original facility was designed for 60MM SCFD of gas and the converted facility is for 4000 BOPD and

5MM SCFD of gas. In addition to the production facilities, TSB provided the pipeline engineering and

managed construction and commission of 6" oil and 4" gas pipelines, including route surveys and MMS

permits. TSB provided the Project Manager, Construction Manager, Inspectors, Pipeline Engineer, and

the Project Clerk. The entire project was completed in less than six months from the initial feasibility study

to first oil.


FIRST OFFSHORE USE OF THE VERSATRUSS SYSTEM:

Amoco’s Eugene Island 367 “A” Deck Removal

Twachtman Snyder & Byrd, Inc. (TSB) managed a decommissioning project for Amoco Corporation

utilizing the Versatruss alternative lifting system. This project, the removal of the deck of Eugene Island

367 “A” (an 8-pile structure) took place in 349 feet of water, and the estimated deck lift weight was

approximately 1200 tons. The removal of the deck and its subsequent transportation to an onshore

storage facility took place from August 30 to September 11, 1997.

Versatruss is a lifting process for heavy topsides using two (2) barges equipped with custom-made booms

connected to each side of the deck. The deck is lifted by pulling the two (2) trusses together with hoists

connected to the decks lower level beams, thus increasing the angle of inclination of the booms and

raising the deck. The deck is lifted and it becomes an integrated catamaran system with the Versatruss

barges. The entire assembly can then be towed to the desired disposal location.
