Cook inlet Gas Gathering System Grant Agreement #7910006 |Appendix C Grantee Proposal/Scope of work The reliable supply and deliverability of increasingly constrained Cook Inlet natural gas is essential to the fuel supply security of South Central Alaska.Chugach Electric Association,Inc. (Chugach),Anchorage Municipal Light &Power (ML&P)and Enstar Natural Gas Company (Enstar)rely on a secure supply of natural gas for the provision of reliable service to their respective consumers. The reliability of gas supply and deliverability can be increased with the ability to transport gas to the west side of Cook inlet via the Cook Inlet Gas Gathering System (CIGGS)pipeline.The availability of gas on the west side enhances gas supply reliability for Chugach's Beluga power plant and provides gas via another route for delivery to ML&P and Enstar. East to west gas flow can be accomplished by making valve changes.However,to flow the gas from east to west also requires additional compression.The compressor that will be installed will be rented.It is expected the compressor will only be needed for one year because the Cook Inlet Gas Storage Alaska (CINGSA)project that will go into service in 2012 is expected to deliver gas at a pressure adequate to mitigate the need for additional compression. A detailed summary of the Cook Inlet gas supply situation and the need for this project can be found in the study entitled:"White Paper:Removal of Check Valves and Installation of Compression to Allow East to West Flow through CIGGS Dual Sub-sea Pipelines”(See Attachment #4). Marathon is the owner of the CIGGS pipeline and will perform the work on behalf of the utilities. Chugach,ML&P and Enstar have entered into cost reimbursement agreements with Marathon to accomplish bi-directional gas flow and install the required metering.Chugach has entered into a reimbursement agreement with Marathon for the installation of the rental compressor. Scope of Work,Budget and Timeline The scope of work to accomplish the entire project consists of three components: 1.To enable bi-directional gas flow on the CIGGS pipeline,Marathon will perform the engineering,planning,procurement,construction,commissioning and documentation to: a.Remove check valves impeding bi-directional flow,either replacing with piping or otherwise removing the impediment. b.Design,fabricate and install bypass piping around the East Forelands separators,which as currently constructed,allow gas to flow in only one direction. c.Replace the CIGGS to Kenai Nikiski Pipeline (KNPL)401 control valve,which currently allows flow in only one direction,with a bi-directional control vaive. d.Other work as needed to implement east to west flow. e.Implement measures,procedures and training for scheduling,accounting,and control room activities to handle gas nominations from the existing and the new CIGGS east side receipt points to facilitate gas movement to all of the CIGGS delivery points,both East Side and West Side.Update all software accordingly. Page 16 of 46 4 tant Cook Inlet Gas Gathering System Grant Agreement #7910006 2.To install required metering,Marathon will perform the engineering,planning,procurement,construction,commissioning and documentation to: a.Upgrade the CIGGS to KNPL metering at meter 401 meter by replacing the existing meter with a bi-directional meter. b.Set up the KNPL pipeline operations and procedures to allow use of Meter 401 as a delivery point from KNPL into CIGGS. c.Implement measures,procedures and training for scheduling,accounting,and gas control to facilitate and allow nominations for gas transportation from all of the various KNPL receipt points to the new 401 delivery point into CIGGS. Update all software accordingly. d.File and seek any necessary regulatory approvals. 3.To install a rented compressor,Marathon will perform the engineering,planning, procurement,construction,commissioning and documentation to: a.Identify a suitable block valve in the KNPL mainline at Kenai Pipeline Junction or, if none exists,install such a valve. b.Identify a suitable tee in the KNPL mainline on each side of the above mentioned block valve or,if none exists,install such tee. c.Install a double block and bleed bal!valve on each such tee. d.Contract for a rental compressor and arrange for its delivery to KPL Junction and return compress to vendor. e.Lease land for the compressor.4 f.Clear and grade fand and do other site preparation such as lighting,security, power and water hook-ups. g.Install suction and discharge piping between KNPL tees and rental compressor.Oo h.Install fuel gas tap and hook-up.-;On A4i,Provide bycontract for prusical operation and_maintenance of the compressor 4 abyalocalteamofpeopléwhowilloperatethecompressorandopenandclose associated valves.j.After demobilization,r¢turn site to condition consistent with site lease.whk.Obtain all permits and needed regulatory approvals.

The scope of this white paper is limited to justification of the proposed check valve removal and compression installation,and is not intended to be an exhaustive study.A description of ENSTAR's east Cook Inlet transmission system and ENSTAR's compression upgrade plan is included to document east side capacity constraints.Cook Inlet gas transmission flow scenarios during the winter of 2011/2012 are present to illustrate the need for proposed system modifications. 2 Cook Inlet gas flow and production 2.1 Pipeline gas flow:east side of Cook Inlet Currently,all Cook Inlet east side gas production must be stored,consumed locally,or transported to the Anchorage area via the east side because check valves on the CIGGS pipeline system prevent flow from west to east across Cook Inlet.Theoretically,east side gas could be routed to a west side user by shipping gas north through Anchorage,Palmer and Wasilla;but projected volumes would exceed current east side system capacity. ENSTAR operates the Kalifonsky Beach and Gudenrath compressor stations with connecting dua!pipelines on the east side of Cook Inlet maintaining a minimum pressure of approximately 550 pounds per square inch gage (psig)at the ENSTAR Potter Station.This minimum pressure is required to serve consumers within the city via ENSTAR's Anchorage area gas transmission pipeline system. 2.1.1 ENSTAR compressor upgrade plan In-ground storage is being added to address ongoing declines in annual production and peak day delivery.This storage will not be available for operation until after the winter of 2011/2012. Regardless of planned compression upgrades,east side flow capacity to Anchorage will remain limited by pipeline capacity. Maximum flow through a pipeline segment occurs when the inlet gas is at the pipeline maximum allowable operating pressure (MAOP)and the outlet pressure is at the desired target.MOAP of pipelines downstream of Kalifonsky and Gudenrath stations are 880 and 1050 psig respectively. In order to increase flow past this maximum,intermediate compressor stations must be added or new pipelines installed in parallel with existing ones (known as line looping). Maximum east side system flow will occur when the Gudenrath discharge pressure is 1050 psig. Various methods exist to achieve MAOP at Gudenrath discharge,but the least expensive and quickest is to add compression at both Kalifonsky and Gudenrath stations.ENSTAR plans to upgrade and add new compression at these stations in stages as shown in Table 2.1.Compression additions and upgrades are shown in red font with off-line spare compression shown in blue font.

ENSTAR's operating philosophy is to have one off-line spare compressor unit available at each compressor station for back up reasons.ENSTAR could operate all four Gudenrath units for a gain of about 6 MMscfd as shown in Figure 2.4.ENSTAR plans to replace aging compression at Kalifonsky with larger equipment during the summer of 2012,which will reduce sensitivity of overall system capacity to Kalifonsky inlet pressure.

Currently gas from the Steelhead platform can be transported across Cook Inlet through CIGGS for injection into in-ground storage near Nikiski,consumed on the Kenai peninsula,transported on ENSTAR pipelines to Anchorage,or routed west on BPL toward the BRU and then on the ENSTAR Beluga pipeline.Gas near Granite Point Junction may be routed west to east through CIGGS,or can be routed northeast on BPL towards the BRU and to the ENSTAR Beluga pipeline. Approximately half of the 60 MMscfd from the Steelhead platform is Marathon (MAP) production which may be shipped to the LNG plant or other consuming parties.MAP has the option to deliver Steelhead gas to CEA (effective April 1,2011),ENSTAR (under current contracts)or other consuming parties.CEA's preference is to purchase MAP's Steelhead gas,which can be transported from Granite Poiritfortheast on BPL to the Beluga Power Plant (BPP).- The balance of Steelhead production is Unocal's and is usually transported across CIGGS to the east side for sale to ENSTAR or temporarily stored in Swanson River.Unocal's Steelhead gas can physically be tendered to ENSTAR at ENSTAR's Beluga pipeline,incurring incremental pipeline tariffs for transport via Marathon's Beluga pipeline from Granite Point to ENSTAR's Beluga pipeline. Aurora transports approximately 5 MMscfd via Marathon's Beluga pipeline and then ENSTAR's Beluga pipeline for delivery to Fairbanks Natural Gas west of Wasilla.BRU gas is currently contracted to supply a portion of the BPP,supply MLP's power plants and meet Union's obligations to ENSTAR.Approximately 15 MMscfd of production north and east of the BPP is delivered into ENSTAR's system including gas from Ivan River,Stump Lake and Lewis River fields;and from Pretty Creek in-ground storage. 2.3 In-ground storage There is limited in-ground gas storage on the west side of Cook Inlet at the Pretty Creek Storage Gas is currently being stored in-ground on the east side of Cook Inlet in the Swanson River and Kenai Gas fields.CINGSA's new in-ground storage in the Cannery Loop field,on the east sideofCookInlet,willsupptément existing storage and is expected to be operational by the winter of 2012-2013. Historically a significant portion of Cook Inlet gas production was liquefied at the Kenai LNG plant for export to Japan.ConocoPhillips and Marathon recently announced that the Kenai LNG plant will be shut down in the spring of 2011.It is unclear how the LNG plant shut down will affect seasonal Cook Inlet gas production.There is a concern by the producers that summer 2011 production curtailment may have an adverse effect on reserves and deliverability. 3 Projected Cook Inlet flow scenarios,winter 2011/2012 Natural gas supplies and demand have changed over the past decades with relatively moreproductionandgasstorageontheeastsideofCookInletthanonthewest.Currently,all gas from__east side production and storage must flow north through ENSTAR's dual pipeline system across.'Turnagain Arm to reach Anchorage.As discussed elsewhere,ENSTAR is upgrading and adding Page 35 of 46 Cook Inet Gas Gathering System Grant Agreement #7810006 compression on their cast side system,but a practical flow limit exists without adding new pipelines. Cook Inlet gas producers,consumers and transporters are concerned that the overall Cook Inlet gas pipeline transportation system may be insufficient to move gas from the Nikiski area to consumers during cold days of high demand and very cold days of peak demand.Diagrams of possible Cook Inlet flow scenarios for the winter of 2011/2012 are offered in this section to illustrate that gas consumers will be best served by: 1.Removing check valves in the dual CIGGS sub-sea pipeline to allow gas flow from southeast to northwest across Cook Inlct;hereafter referred to as east-west flow;and 2.Adding temporary compression at KPL junction on the cast side to enhance east-west flow while accommodating many commercial issues between Parties. Flow diagrams are discussed assuming the above two proposals have been implemented.General Cook Inlet operations are described in Section 3.1.1.Detailed discussions of these proposals follow presentation of the flow diagrams. For the purposes of this document,a cold day is defined as any combination of weather conditions that results in a system-wide Cook Inlet demand of 350 MMscfd."Cold day”and "350 MMscfd demand”are used interchangeably in this document.An extreme cold day is defined as any weather circumstance that results in system-wide Cook Inlet demand of 425 MMscfd.The terms "extreme cold day”,"425 MMscfd demand”and "design peak”refer to the same circumstance. 3.1 Cold day flow at 350 MMscfd 3.1.1 All equipment on-line General configurations of Cook Inlet pipelines with MAOP are shown in Table 3.1.It is important to note that CIGGS pipelines have higher MAOPs than the pipelines to which they connect.Production from Steelhead and Granite Point area is compressed to enter the CIGGS system at high pressure. Cold day operation with all production and gas transmission equipment on-line is depicted in Figure 3.1.Referring to Figure 3.1,approximately 25 MMscfd of MAP's relatively high pressure production from the Steelhead platform plus approximately 5 MMscfd of Aurora Granite Point area production can flow through MPL's Beluga pipeline to the BPP.MAP's production can either be consumed within the BPP or pass around the plant with Aurora's gas to enter the lower pressure ENSTAR Beluga pipeline.

Approximately 35 MMscfd of Steelhead production would be routed through the high pressureCIGGSsystemtoKPLjunctionwhereitwouldeithersenttostorageatSwansonRiverortenderedtoENSTARviatheRoyaltyline,or routed down KNPL to ENSTAR.Unocal has invested capital to configure their Steelhead production to take advantage of CIGGS high operating pressure so that gas delivered to the east side can be injected it into Swanson River storage with less compression than otherwise,or delivered to ENSTAR's Kenai pipelines without additional compression. Gas is delivered to Homer Electric Association (HEA)from MPL's KNPL.Gas is delivered to Kenai from various sources prior to the inlet of ENSTAR's Kalifonsky station.Approximately 15 MMscfd would be delivered to Soldotna and other consumers from the ENSTAR dual pipeline system between Kalifonsky and Gudenrath stations (shown on the drawing as H/K/S near Soldotna).

Only one of many postulated circumstances for gas flow around the BPP and BRU is depicted. Regardless of how gas would be physically consumed by or routed around the BPP,25 MMscfd of gas that prior was routed through MPL's CIGGS dual lines from west to east must now be routed through MPL's Beluga pipeline with potential impact on tariffs. The flow rate to Anchorage via ENSTAR's east side system to Anchorage would not change.

Availability of east side supply will be a challenge for all peak flow scenarios.The following peak flow scenarios are based on removal of CIGGS check valves and installation of compression at KPLjunction. 3.2.1 All equipment on-line,location of temporary compression Operation of the Cook Inlet gas transmission system subject to peak flow on an extremely cold day with all supply and gas transmission equipment on-line is shown in Figure 3.4.Flow through ENSTAR's east Cook Inlet system is shown at a rate greater than simulated flow at low KNPL inlet pressure,but less than 230 MMscfd simulated maximum flow achieved with higher KNPL inlet pressures (see Table 2.2).This mid-range value was selected to reasonably depict operation below theoretical maximum.

Line pack Without proposed east side gas compression,CIGGS operating pressure would have to be reduced below that of KNPL in order for gas to move east to west.System pressures would Page 42 of 46 Cook Iniet Gas Gathering System Grant Agreement #7910006 progressively drop through CIGGS and MPL's Beluga pipeline to the BPP.Inlet pressure to ENSTAR's Beluga pipeline would be set at the outlet pressure from MPL's Beluga pipeline for gas to proceed northeast to Wasilla. By definition,a peak flow day is a circumstance in which most if not all Cook Inlet production and transportation equipment would be on line to meet demand.ENSTAR has historically operated its Beluga pipeline at around 800 psig to provide line pack to serve as emergency supply should transmission or production equipment fail thereby reducing gas deliverability.The stored gas by line pack allows for a 10-20 MMscf temporary supply to address producer or transportation issues. ENSTAR transports gas for MLP and CEA;however,these companies are not ENSTAR customers.Should MLP or CEA loose supply entering ENSTAR's system,ENSTAR would quickly curtail gas delivery to MLP or CEA respectively by the same amounts.Line pack maintained in the ENSTAR Beluga pipeline for ENSTAR customers also provides MLP and CEA very limited,but crucial time to secure replacement supplies. As depicted in Figure 3.5,loss of part of BRU production could result in more gas bypassing the Beluga power plant than available from the BRU.If ENSTAR operates its Beluga pipeline at normal pressures ensuring emergency line pack,and such pressures exceeded the pressure of gas delivered to the BPP from the south;plant bypass could not occur.Under such conditions only 60 MMscfd of high pressure gas would be available from the BRU,and a 10 MMscfd deliverability shortfall would occur in Wasilla. Installation of compression on the east side of Cook Inlet to allow east-west flow with high CIGGS operating pressures would increase system operating flexibility by allowing ENSTAR to maintain emergency line pack while gas bypass around the BPP. Gas bypass around the Beluga Power Plant As described above,if east to west deliveries are to be made,east side compression will be required to maintain existing gas contracts and deliveries.Shippers on MPL's BPL may have to enter into new contracts,gas trade/exchange agreements,or other commercial arrangements to make deliveries to the BPP and displace BRU production that would instead be delivered at a higher pressure into ENSTAR's system.The installation of east side Cook Inlet compression for east to west flow would alleviate these problems and allow deliveries to continue under existing agreements. East side pressure related issues Unocal currently transports gas from the Steelhead platform to Swanson River storage via CIGGS pipelines.Unocal operates its Swanson River storage injection compression to take advantage of relatively high suction pressures achieved via Steelhead compression and high CIGGS pipeline operating pressures.High CIGGS east side pressures provide Unocal with the option to preferentially route gas to ENSTAR's Royalty pipeline thereby bypassing Marathon's KNPL pipeline and avoiding the associated tariff. Unocal would like to retain the ability to inject gas into Swanson River during east to west flow through CIGGS.Gas can't simultaneously flow both directions through CIGGS and a trade agreement would be required for Unocal to receive equivalent gas volumes for Swansori River injection.At issue is whether traded gas available on the east side would be at the same pressure as Unocal's gas that otherwise would have been delivered west to east.Unocal would be disadvantaged if traded gas was at a lower pressure thereby requiring operation of incrementally more Swanson River injection compression. Page 43 of 46 Cook tnlot Gas Gathering System Grant Agreement 4 7810006 Compression could be installed at the west end of the CIGGS East pipeline where it intersects CIGGS dual sub-sea pipeline,or on the cast of end of CIGGS East pipeline at KPLjunction. MAOP of CIGGS dual sub-sea pipelines is greater than that of CIGGS East (see Table 3.1). Installing the compressor at the intersection of CIGGS East and dual sub-sea pipelines would allow higher compressor discharge pressures and theoretically more east-west flow capacity than if instatled at KPL junction. Installing compression at the intersection of CIGGS East and dual sub-sea pipeline would not address Unocal's commercial issues described above because KPLjunction operating pressurewouldbethesameasKNPL.It is proposed to install the compression at KPLjunction to mitigateadversecommercialimpacttoUnocal. 3.2.3 Loss of all production from the Steelhead platform Cook Inlet gas transmission pipeline flow subject to an extremely cold day and loss of all Steelhead platform supply is depicted in Figure 3.6.East side production will be severely taxed to provide the postulated 320 MMscfd deliverability.It is unlikely that the loss of Steelhead production could be replaced by production or storage gas on the peak day. The circumstance depicted in Figure 3.6 will create commercial issues for shippers because gas previously tendered 1o ENSTAR on the east side will be burdened with incremental tariffs from Marathon's CIGGS and Belugas pipelines. 425 MMscfd Cook Inlet demand and production,no Steelhead :Westside production and demand Beluga |85 BRU'60 |River ''oe]Unit 'f [invewestsige |USPC |'OSteelhead x 2 4!ciaes Beluga .{; ;Granite Pt Power L__Beluga :}Junction |plant -: cies Flow 45 : H Flow 65 t Oual *AlLAULUraBas :eS6Sc +to Farbanks WG GBB : North ;'CIGGS ::Kast Cookintet |te--n--vovreeeseeeseeeeee |Flow 80 : 10 Tesoro |Tesoro |KPLjunct -=- ----- |Swanson wasile |0 i HEA ver |Palmer WP H Cannery Royalty ge me Tpmeneseneccseneess'Loop [7 Flow 220 |Flow 10- Kenal Gas Kalifonskt Gudenrath =|arehorase |Soldoti Ancho:Fleld Kenai |station =station menorage |40 MLP 25 H-K-S 190 Anch woe KKPL Supply =425 Demand 2425Allnumericvaluesare0Stealhead85CEA approximate MMscfd.5 Aurora 5 Fairbanks NG {--Marathon pipelines 85 BRU 70 Wasilla/Palmer |-Enstar pipelines APPL 15 PC &west 40 MLP ConocoPhillips 320 East side 190 ENSTAR Anchorage - -Unocal 35 HEA/Kenal/Soldotea &Tesora Figure 3.6:Peak flow,loss of all Steelhead platform supply Page 44 of 46 Cook Inlet Gas Gathering System Grant Agreement #7910006 3.3 Justification of proposed Cook Inlet transmission system modifications 3.3.1.Remove check valves to allow east-west flow through CIGGS Anticipated peak demand during the winter of 2011/2012 cannot be met unless check valves are removed to allow east-west gas flow through CIGGS.Maximum capacity of ENSTAR's east Cook Inlet transmission system is insufficient to deliver all necessary east side production to Anchorage.An obvious side benefit of providing for CIGGS east-west flow would be to allow west side transmission lines to move east side gas if ENSTAR's east side compression or pipelines were compromised for whatever reason. It is possible to configure the CIGGS dual sub-sea pipeline to allow simultaneous flow in opposite directions.Valves and piping modifications to allow such bi-directional flow would be more expensive than simply removing CIGGS check valves.The proposed removal of CIGGS check valves is based on the premise that commercial terms can be developed to avoid the need for simultaneous bi-directional flow across Cook Inlet. 3.3.2 Install temporary gas compressor to enhance east-west flow East to west flow through CIGGS can be achieved by either lowering operating pressures of CIGGS,Marathon Beluga and ENSTAR Beluga pipelines to less than KNPL,causing the issues and challenges described above,or east to west flow can be achieved by installing compression at KPL junction to raise the pressure of gas from KNPL.Installation of compression at KPL junction will enhance security of flow for parties responsible to move gas from the east side of Cook Inlet to the west side during normal operations while also allowing ENSTAR to maintain pressure and line pack in their Beluga pipeline for contingency supply during periods of peak system-wide demand. Lowering west side operating pressures was rejected in favor of installing compression at KPL junction because: e ENSTAR Beluga line pack during periods of high or peak flow can be maintained; e Gas can be transported under stress conditions from the Marathon 16 inch Beluga Line to the ENSTAR 20 inch Beluga line thereby providing more operational flexibility; e Raising gas pressure at KPL junction provides more east side operational flexibility; e Potential commercial issues associated with east to west flow are avoided,and; e CEA will have a full range of supply options for the BPP. 3.3.2.1 Compressor capacity Approximate throughput rates for a generic 1000 Hp reciprocating compressor are shown in Table 3.2.

Page 15 of 46 Cook Inlet Gas Gathering System Grant Agreement #7910006 |Appendix C_Grantee Proposal/Scope of work The reliable supply and deliverability of increasingly constrained Cook Inlet natural gas is essential to the fuel supply security of South Central Alaska.Chugach Electric Association,Inc. (Chugach),Anchorage Municipal Light &Power (ML&P)and Enstar Natural Gas Company (Enstar)rely on a secure supply of natural gas for the provision of reliable service to their respective consumers. The reliability of gas supply and deliverability can be increased with the ability to transport gas to the west side of Cook Inlet via the Cook Inlet Gas Gathering System (CIGGS)pipeline.The availability of gas on the west side enhances gas supply reliability for Chugach's Beluga power plant and provides gas via another route for delivery to ML&P and Enstar. East to west gas flow can be accomplished by making valve changes.However,to flow the gas from east to west also requires additional compression.The compressor that will be installed will be rented.It is expected the compressor will only be needed for one year because the Cook Inlet Gas Storage Alaska (CINGSA)project that will go into service in 2012 is expected to deliver gas at a pressure adequate to mitigate the need for additional compression. A detailed summary of the Cook Inlet gas supply situation and the need for this project can be found in the study entitled:"White Paper:Removal of Check Valves and Installation of Compression to Allow East to West Flow through CIGGS Dual Sub-sea Pipelines”(See Attachment #4). Marathon is the owner of the CIGGS pipeline and will perform the work on behalf of the utilities. Chugach,ML&P and Enstar have entered into cost reimbursement agreements with Marathon to accomplish bi-directional gas flow and install the required metering.Chugach has entered into a reimbursement agreement with Marathon for the installation of the rental compressor. Scope of Work,Budget and Timeline The scope of work to accomplish the entire project consists of three components: 1.To enable bi-directional gas flow on the CIGGS pipeline,Marathon will perform the engineering,planning,procurement,construction,commissioning and documentation to: a.Remove check valves impeding bi-directional flow,either replacing with piping or otherwise removing the impediment. b.Design,fabricate and install bypass piping around the East Forelands separators,which as currently constructed,allow gas to flow in only one direction. c.Replace the CIGGS to Kenai Nikiski Pipeline (KNPL)401 control valve,which currently allows flow in only one direction,with a bi-directional control valve. d.Other work as needed to implement east to west flow. e.Implement measures,procedures and training for scheduling,accounting,and control room activities to handle gas nominations from the existing and the new CIGGS east side receipt points to facilitate gas movement to all of the CIGGS delivery points,both East Side and West Side.Update all software accordingly. Page 16 of 46 Cook Inlet Gas Gathering System Grant Agreement #7910006 2.To install required metering,Marathon will perform the engineering,planning, procurement,construction,commissioning and documentation to: a.Upgrade the CIGGS to KNPL metering at meter 401 meter by replacing the existing meter with a bi-directional meter. b.Set up the KNPL pipeline operations and procedures to allow use of Meter 401 as a delivery point from KNPL into CIGGS. c.Implement measures,procedures and training for scheduling,accounting,and gas control to facilitate and allow nominations for gas transportation from all of the various KNPL receipt points to the new 401 delivery point into CIGGS. Update all software accordingly. d.File and seek any necessary regulatory approvals. 3.To install a rented compressor,Marathon will perform the engineering,planning, procurement,construction,commissioning and documentation to: a. b. c. d. e. f. g. h. j. k. Identify a suitable block valve in the KNPL mainline at Kenai Pipeline Junction or, if none exists,install such a vaive. Identify a suitable tee in the KNPL mainline on each side of the above mentioned block valve or,if none exists,install such tee. Install a double block and bleed ball valve on each such tee. Contract for a rental compressor and arrange for its delivery to KPL Junction and return compress to vendor. Lease land for the compressor. Clear and grade land and do other site preparation such as lighting,security, power and water hook-ups. Install suction and discharge piping between KNPL tees and rental compressor. Install fuel gas tap and hook-up. Provide by contract for physical operation and maintenance of the compressor by a local team of people who will operate the compressor and open and close associated valves. After demobilization,return site to condition consistent with site lease. Obtain all permits and needed regulatory approvals. The first phases of the project (enabling bi-directional flow and installing required metering)are to be completed by October 31,2011 at a combined cost not to exceed $2 million. The second phase of the project (installing the rented compressor)is to be completed by October 31,2011 at a cost not to exceed $2.7 million.This amount is capital cost only and does not include monthly operation and maintenance expenses such as rental of the compressor and operations and maintenance expense.

The scope of this white paper is limited to justification of the proposed check valve removal and compression installation,and is not intended to be an exhaustive study.A description of ENSTAR's east Cook Inlet transmission system and ENSTAR's compression upgrade plan is included to document east side capacity constraints.Cook Inlet gas transmission flow scenarios during the winter of 2011/2012 are present to illustrate the need for proposed system modifications. 2 Cook Inlet gas flow and production 2.1 Pipeline gas flow:east side of Cook Inlet Currently,all Cook Inlet east side gas production must be stored,consumed locally,or transported to the Anchorage area via the east side because check valves on the CIGGS pipeline system prevent flow from west to east across Cook Inlet.Theoretically,east side gas could be routed to a west side user by shipping gas north through Anchorage,Palmer and Wasilla;but projected volumes would exceed current east side system capacity. ENSTAR operates the Kalifonsky Beach and Gudenrath compressor stations with connecting dual pipelines on the east side of Cook Inlet maintaining a minimum pressure of approximately 550 pounds per square inch gage (psig)at the ENSTAR Potter Station.This minimum pressure is required to serve consumers within the city via ENSTAR's Anchorage area gas transmission pipeline system. 2.1.1 ENSTAR compressor upgrade plan In-ground storage is being added to address ongoing declines in annual production and peak day delivery.This storage will not be available for operation until after the winter of 2011/2012. Regardless of planned compression upgrades,east side flow capacity to Anchorage will remain limited by pipeline capacity. Maximum flow through a pipeline segment occurs when the inlet gas is at the pipeline maximum allowable operating pressure (MAOP)and the outlet pressure is at the desired target.MOAP of pipelines downstream of Kalifonsky and Gudenrath stations are 880 and 1050 psig respectively. In order to increase flow past this maximum,intermediate compressor stations must be added or new pipelines installed in parallel with existing ones (known as line looping). Maximum east side system flow will occur when the Gudenrath discharge pressure is 1050 psig. Various methods exist to achieve MAOP at Gudenrath discharge,but the least expensive and quickest is to add compression at both Kalifonsky and Gudenrath stations.ENSTAR plans to upgrade and add new compression at these stations in stages as shown in Table 2.1.Compression additions and upgrades are shown in red font with off-line spare compression shown in blue font.

ENSTAR's operating philosophy is to have one off-line spare compressor unit available at each compressor station for back up reasons.ENSTAR could operate all four Gudenrath units for a gain of about 6 MMscfd as shown in Figure 2.4.ENSTAR plans to replace aging compression at Kalifonsky with larger equipment during the summer of 2012,which will reduce sensitivity of overall system capacity to Kalifonsky inlet pressure.

Currently gas from the Steelhead platform can be transported across Cook Inlet through CIGGS for injection into in-ground storage near Nikiski,consumed on the Kenai peninsula,transported on ENSTAR pipelines to Anchorage,or routed west on BPL toward the BRU and then on the ENSTAR Beluga pipeline.Gas near Granite Point Junction may be routed west to east through CIGGS,or can be routed northeast on BPL towards the BRU and to the ENSTAR Beluga pipeline. Approximately half of the 60 MMscfd from the Steelhead platform is Marathon (MAP) production which may be shipped to the LNG plant or other consuming parties.MAP has the option to deliver Steelhead gas to CEA (effective April 1,2011),ENSTAR (under current contracts)or other consuming parties.CEA's preference is to purchase MAP's Steelhead gas, which can be transported from Granite Point northeast on BPL to the Beluga Power Plant (BPP). The balance of Steelhead production is Unocal's and is usually transported across CIGGS to the east side for sale to ENSTAR or temporarily stored in Swanson River.Unocal's Steelhead gas can physically be tendered to ENSTAR at ENSTAR's Beluga pipeline,incurring incremental pipeline tariffs for transport via Marathon's Beluga pipeline from Granite Point to ENSTAR's Beluga pipeline. Aurora transports approximately 5 MMscfd via Marathon's Beluga pipeline and then ENSTAR's Beluga pipeline for delivery to Fairbanks Natural Gas west of Wasilla.BRU gas is currently contracted to supply a portion of the BPP,supply MLP's power plants and meet Union's obligations to ENSTAR.Approximately 15 MMscfd of production north and east of the BPP is delivered into ENSTAR's system including gas from Ivan River,Stump Lake and Lewis River fields;and from Pretty Creek in-ground storage. 2.3 In-ground storage There is limited in-ground gas storage on the west side of Cook Inlet at the Pretty Creek Storage Facility and there are currently only conceptual plans for development of more west side storage. Gas is currently being stored in-ground on the east side of Cook Inlet in the Swanson River and Kenai Gas fields.CINGSA's new in-ground storage in the Cannery Loop field,on the east side of Cook Inlet,will supplement existing storage and is expected to be operational by the winter of 2012-2013. Historically a significant portion of Cook Inlet gas production was liquefied at the Kenai LNG plant for export to Japan.ConocoPhillips and Marathon recently announced that the Kenai LNG plant will be shut down in the spring of 2011.It is unclear how the LNG plant shut down will affect seasonal Cook Inlet gas production.There is a concern by the producers that summer 2011 production curtailment may have an adverse effect on reserves and deliverability. 3 Projected Cook Inlet flow scenarios,winter 2011/2012 Natural gas supplies and demand have changed over the past decades with relatively more production and gas storage on the east side of Cook Inlet than on the west.Currently,all gas from east side production and storage must flow north through ENSTAR's dual pipeline system across Turnagain Arm to reach Anchorage.As discussed elsewhere,ENSTAR is upgrading and adding Page 35 of 46 Cook Inlet Gas Gathering System Grant Agreement #7910006 compression on their east side system,but a practical flow limit exists without adding new pipelines. Cook Inlet gas producers,consumers and transporters are concerned that the overall Cook Inlet gas pipeline transportation system may be insufficient to move gas from the Nikiski area to consumers during cold days of high demand and very cold days of peak demand.Diagrams of possible Cook Inlet flow scenarios for the winter of 2011/2012 are offered in this section to illustrate that gas consumers will be best served by: 1.Removing check valves in the dual CIGGS sub-sea pipeline to allow gas flow from southeast to northwest across Cook Inlet;hereafter referred to as east-west flow;and 2.Adding temporary compression at KPL junction on the east side to enhance east-west flow while accommodating many commercial issues between Parties. Flow diagrams are discussed assuming the above two proposals have been implemented.General Cook Inlet operations are described in Section 3.1.1.Detailed discussions of these proposals follow presentation of the flow diagrams. For the purposes of this document,a cold day is defined as any combination of weather conditions that results in a system-wide Cook Inlet demand of 350 MMscfd."Cold day”and "350 MMscfd demand”are used interchangeably in this document.An extreme cold day is defined as any weather circumstance that results in system-wide Cook Inlet demand of 425 MMscfd.The terms "extreme cold day”,"425 MMscfd demand”and "design peak”refer to the same circumstance. 3.1 Cold day flow at 350 MMscfd 3.1.1 All equipment on-line General configurations of Cook Inlet pipelines with MAOP are shown in Table 3.1.It is important to note that CIGGS pipelines have higher MAOPs than the pipelines to which they connect.Production from Steelhead and Granite Point area is compressed to enter the CIGGS system at high pressure. Cold day operation with all production and gas transmission equipment on-line is depicted in Figure 3.1.Referring to Figure 3.1,approximately 25 MMscfd of MAP's relatively high pressure production from the Steelhead platform plus approximately 5 MMscfd of Aurora Granite Point area production can flow through MPL's Beluga pipeline to the BPP.MAP's production can either be consumed within the BPP or pass around the plant with Aurora's gas to enter the lower pressure ENSTAR Beluga pipeline.

Unocal Swanson River 16 2999 1200 During a cold day,collectively about 15 MMscfd of west side gas supply would be available from Ivan River,Stump Lake,Lewis River and Pretty Creek Storage.All west side production routed through ENSTAR's Beluga pipeline would be consumed by west side demand with approximately 10 MMscfd required to pass through Anchorage to Palmer to make up the shortfall in west side production.The alternative to transport additional gas through the ENSTAR dual pipelines under this scenario is not certain due to pipeline pressure problems involving gas transport through Anchorage to the Wasilla/Palmer area. Approximately 35 MMscfd of Steelhead production would be routed through the high pressure CIGGS system to KPL junction where it would either sent to storage at Swanson River or tendered to ENSTAR via the Royalty line,or routed down KNPL to ENSTAR.Unocal has invested capital to configure their Steelhead production to take advantage of CIGGS high operating pressure so that gas delivered to the east side can be injected it into Swanson River storage with less compression than otherwise,or delivered to ENSTAR's Kenai pipelines without additional compression. Gas is delivered to Homer Electric Association (HEA)from MPL's KNPL.Gas is delivered to Kenai from various sources prior to the inlet of ENSTAR's Kalifonsky station.Approximately 15 MMscfd would be delivered to Soldotna and other consumers from the ENSTAR dual pipeline system between Kalifonsky and Gudenrath stations (shown on the drawing as H/K/S near Soldotna).

Only one of many postulated circumstances for gas flow around the BPP and BRU is depicted. Regardless of how gas would be physically consumed by or routed around the BPP,25 MMscfd of gas that prior was routed through MPL's CIGGS dual lines from west to east must now be routed through MPL's Beluga pipeline with potential impact on tariffs. The flow rate to Anchorage via ENSTAR's east side system to Anchorage would not change.

East side supply routed east to west would come from KKPL to KNPL,KNPL,North Cook Inlet, Swanson River or Royalty pipelines,all of which operate at a lower pressure than CIGGS.Either CIGGS pipeline pressure must be reduced or east side compression installed for east side gas to enter CIGGS.For reasons described in Section 3.2.2,installation of temporary rental compression is proposed to allow flow from KPL junction east to west through CIGGS.

Availability of east side supply will be a challenge for all peak flow scenarios.The following peak flow scenarios are based on removal of CIGGS check valves and installation of compression at KPLjunction. 3.2.1 All equipment on-line,location of temporary compression Operation of the Cook Inlet gas transmission system subject to peak flow on an extremely cold day with all supply and gas transmission equipment on-line is shown in Figure 3.4.Flow through ENSTAR's east Cook Inlet system is shown at a rate greater than simulated flow at low KNPL inlet pressure,but less than 230 MMscfd simulated maximum flow achieved with higher KNPL inlet pressures (see Table 2.2).This mid-range value was selected to reasonably depict operation below theoretical maximum.

Line pack Without proposed east side gas compression,CIGGS operating pressure would have to be reduced below that of KNPL in order for gas to move east to west.System pressures would Page 42 of 46 Cook Inlet Gas Gathering System Grant Agreement #7910006 progressively drop through CIGGS and MPL's Beluga pipeline to the BPP.Inlet pressure to ENSTAR's Beluga pipeline would be set at the outlet pressure from MPL's Beluga pipeline for gas to proceed northeast to Wasilla. By definition,a peak flow day is a circumstance in which most if not all Cook Inlet production and transportation equipment would be on line to meet demand.ENSTAR has historically operated its Beluga pipeline at around 800 psig to provide line pack to serve as emergency supply should transmission or production equipment fail thereby reducing gas deliverability.The stored gas by line pack allows for a 10-20 MMscf temporary supply to address producer or transportation issues. ENSTAR transports gas for MLP and CEA;however,these companies are not ENSTAR customers.Should MLP or CEA loose supply entering ENSTAR's system,ENSTAR would quickly curtail gas delivery to MLP or CEA respectively by the same amounts.Line pack maintained in the ENSTAR Beluga pipeline for ENSTAR customers also provides MLP and CEA very limited,but crucial time to secure replacement supplies. As depicted in Figure 3.5,loss of part of BRU production could result in more gas bypassing the Beluga power plant than available from the BRU.If ENSTAR operates its Beluga pipeline at normal pressures ensuring emergency line pack,and such pressures exceeded the pressure of gas delivered to the BPP from the south;plant bypass could not occur.Under such conditions only 60 MMsefd of high pressure gas would be available from the BRU,and a 10 MMscfd deliverability shortfall would occur in Wasilla. Installation of compression on the east side of Cook Inlet to allow east-west flow with high CIGGS operating pressures would increase system operating flexibility by allowing ENSTAR to maintain emergency line pack while gas bypass around the BPP. Gas bypass around the Beluga Power Plant As described above,if east to west deliveries are to be made,east side compression will be required to maintain existing gas contracts and deliveries.Shippers on MPL's BPL may have to enter into new contracts,gas trade/exchange agreements,or other commercial arrangements to make deliveries to the BPP and displace BRU production that would instead be delivered at a higher pressure into ENSTAR's system.The installation of east side Cook Inlet compression for east to west flow would alleviate these problems and allow deliveries to continue under existing agreements. East side pressure related issues Unocal currently transports gas from the Steelhead platform to Swanson River storage via CIGGS pipelines.Unocal operates its Swanson River storage injection compression to take advantage of relatively high suction pressures achieved via Steelhead compression and high CIGGS pipeline operating pressures.High CIGGS east side pressures provide Unocal with the option to preferentially route gas to ENSTAR's Royalty pipeline thereby bypassing Marathon's KNPL pipeline and avoiding the associated tariff. Unocal would like to retain the ability to inject gas into Swanson River during east to west flow through CIGGS.Gas can't simultaneously flow both directions through CIGGS and a trade agreement would be required for Unocal to receive equivalent gas volumes for Swanson River injection.At issue is whether traded gas available on the east side would be at the same pressure as Unocal's gas that otherwise would have been delivered west to east.Unocal would be disadvantaged if traded gas was at a lower pressure thereby requiring operation of incrementally more Swanson River injection compression. Page 43 of 46 Cook intet Gas Gathering System Grant Agreement #7910006 Compression could be installed at the west end of the CIGGS East pipeline where it intersects CIGGS dual sub-sea pipeline,or on the east of end of CIGGS East pipeline at KPL junction. MAOP of CIGGS dual sub-sea pipelines is greater than that of CIGGS East (see Table 3.1). Installing the compressor at the intersection of CIGGS East and dual sub-sea pipelines would allow higher compressor discharge pressures and theoretically more east-west flow capacity than if installed at KPL junction. Installing compression at the intersection of CIGGS East and dual sub-sea pipeline would not address Unocal's commercial issues described above because KPL junction operating pressure would be the same as KNPL.It is proposed to install the compression at KPL junction to mitigate adverse commercial impact to Unocal. 3.2.3 Loss of all production from the Steelhead platform Cook Inlet gas transmission pipeline flow subject to an extremely cold day and loss of all Steelhead platform supply is depicted in Figure 3.6.East side production will be severely taxed to provide the postulated 320 MMscfd deliverability.It is unlikely that the loss of Steelhead production could be replaced by production or storage gas on the peak day. The circumstance depicted in Figure 3.6 will create commercial issues for shippers because gas previously tendered to ENSTAR on the east side will be burdened with incremental tariffs from Marathon's CIGGS and Belugas pipelines. 425 MMscfd Cook Inlet demand and production,no Steelhead ee ee en nt ee eee en enn nee ee'West side production and demand 'Beluga |85 BRU'River Unit Pretty Creek &misc.west side 1S PC 0 Steelhead ciges 25 HWestGranitePt1 Beluga :junction :|Flow 85 |Flow65 f class ' ' ' : '*All Aurora gasLeessaeeeesneessoaeesensesseseesenspcelfcnecesccoseeseenteteesseeee,te arene NG 5 ENG ' ' cices North : East Cook inlet |bevz+-ereereeceeeeesceees :|Flow 80 : 10 Tesoro |Tesoro KPL junct Swanson 'Wasilla ' HEA River :Palmer 70 WP !

It is possible to configure the CIGGS dual sub-sea pipeline to allow simultaneous flow in opposite directions.Valves and piping modifications to allow such bi-directional flow would be more expensive than simply removing CIGGS check valves.The proposed removal of CIGGS check valves is based on the premise that commercial terms can be developed to avoid the need for simultaneous bi-directional flow across Cook Inlet. 3.3.2 Install temporary gas compressor to enhance east-west flow East to west flow through CIGGS can be achieved by either lowering operating pressures of CIGGS,Marathon Beluga and ENSTAR Beluga pipelines to less than KNPL,causing the issues and challenges described above,or east to west flow can be achieved by installing compression at KPL junction to raise the pressure of gas from KNPL.Installation of compression at KPL junction will enhance security of flow for parties responsible to move gas from the east side of Cook Inlet to the west side during normal operations while also allowing ENSTAR to maintain pressure and line pack in their Beluga pipeline for contingency supply during periods of peak system-wide demand. Lowering west side operating pressures was rejected in favor of installing compression at KPL junction because: e ENSTAR Beluga line pack during periods of high or peak flow can be maintained; e Gas can be transported under stress conditions from the Marathon 16 inch Beluga Line to the ENSTAR 20 inch Beluga line thereby providing more operational flexibility; Raising gas pressure at KPL junction provides more east side operational flexibility; Potential commercial issues associated with east to west flow are avoided,and; CEA will have a full range of supply options for the BPP. 3.3.2.1 Compressor capacity Approximate throughput rates for a generic 1000 Hp reciprocating compressor are shown in Table 3.2.

The reliability of gas supply and deliverability can be increased with the ability to transport gas to the west side of Cook Inlet via the Cook Inlet Gas Gathering System (CIGGS)pipeline.The availability of gas on the west side enhances gas supply reliability for Chugach's Beluga power plant and provides gas via another route for delivery to ML&P and Enstar. East to west gas flow can be accomplished by making valve changes.However,to flow the gas from east to west also requires additional compression.The compressor that will be installed will be rented.It is expected the compressor will only be needed for one year because the Cook Inlet Gas Storage Alaska (CINGSA)project that will go into service in 2012 is expected to deliver gas at a pressure adequate to mitigate the need for additional compression. A detailed summary of the Cook Inlet gas supply situation and the need for this project can be found in the attached study entitled:"White Paper:Removal of Check Valves and Installation of Compression to Allow East to West Flow through CIGGS Dual Sub-sea Pipelines”. Marathon is the owner of the CIGGS pipeline and will perform the work on behalf of the utilities.Chugach,ML&P and Enstar have entered into cost reimbursement agreements with Marathon to accomplish bi-directional gas flow and install the required metering. Chugach has entered into a reimbursement agreement with Marathon for the installation of the rental compressor. Scope of Work,Budget and Timeline The scope of work to accomplish the entire project consists of three components: 1.To enable bi-directional gas flow on the CIGGS pipeline,Marathon will perform the engineering,planning,procurement,construction,commissioning and documentation to: a.Remove check valves impeding bi-directional flow,either replacing with piping or otherwise removing the impediment. (\GGS CleainS CD b.Design,fabricate and install bypass piping around the East Forelands separators,which as currently constructed,allow gas to flow in only one direction. c.Replace the CIGGS to Kenai Nikiski Pipeline (KNPL)401 control valve, which currently allows flow in only one direction,with a bi-directional control valve. d.Other work as needed to implement east to west flow. e.Implement measures,procedures and training for scheduling,accounting, and control room activities to handle gas nominations from the existing and the new CIGGS east side receipt points to facilitate gas movement to all of the CIGGS delivery points,both East Side and West Side.Update all software accordingly. To install required metering,Marathon will perform the engineering, planning,procurement,construction,commissioning and documentation to: a.Upgrade the CIGGS to KNPL metering at meter 401 meter by replacing the existing meter with a bi-directional meter. b.Set up the KNPL pipeline operations and procedures to allow use of Meter 401 as a delivery point from KNPL into CIGGS. c.Implement measures,procedures and training for scheduling,accounting, and gas control to facilitate and allow nominations for gas transportation from all of the various KNPL receipt points to the new 401 delivery point into CIGGS.Update all software accordingly. d.File and seek any necessary regulatory approvals. To install a rented compressor,Marathon will perform the engineering, planning,procurement,construction,commissioning and documentation to: a.Identify a suitable block valve in the KNPL mainline at Kenai Pipeline Junction or,if none exists,install such a valve. b.Identify a suitable tee in the KNPL mainline on each side of the above mentioned block valve or,if none exists,install such tee. c.Install a double block and bleed ball valve on each such tee. d.Contract for a rental compressor and arrange for its delivery to KPL Junction and return compress to vendor. e.Lease land for the compressor. f.Clear and grade land and do other site preparation such as lighting, security,power and water hook-ups. g.Install suction and discharge piping between KNPL tees and rental compressor. h.Install fuel gas tap and hook-up. Provide by contract for physical operation and maintenance of the compressor by a local team of people who will operate the compressor and open and close associated valves. j.After demobilization,return site to condition consistent with site lease.be k.Obtain all permits and needed regulatory approvals. The first phases of the project (enabling bi-directional flow and installing required metering)are to be completed by October 31,2011 at a combined cost not to exceed $2 million. The second phase of the project (installing the rented compressor)is to be completed by October 31,2011 at a cost not to exceed $2.7 million.This amount is capital cost only and does not include monthly operation and maintenance expenses such as rental of the compressor and operations and maintenance expense.

The scope of this white paper is limited to justification of the proposed check valve removal and compression installation,and is not intended to be an exhaustive study.A description of ENSTAR's east Cook Inlet transmission system and ENSTAR's compression upgrade plan is included to document east side capacity constraints.Cook Inlet gas transmission flow scenarios during the winter of 2011/2012 are present to illustrate the need for proposed system modifications. 2 Cook Inlet gas flow and production 2.1 Pipeline gas flow:east side of Cook Inlet Currently,all Cook Inlet east side gas production must be stored,consumed locally,or transported to the Anchorage area via the east side because check valves on the CIGGS pipeline system prevent flow from west to east across Cook Inlet.Theoretically,east side gas could be routed to a west side user by shipping gas north through Anchorage,Palmer and Wasilla;but projected volumes would exceed current east side system capacity. ENSTAR operates the Kalifonsky Beach and Gudenrath compressor stations with connecting dual pipelines on the east side of Cook Inlet maintaining a minimum pressure of approximately 550 pounds per square inch gage (psig)at the ENSTAR Potter Station.This minimum pressure is required to serve consumers within the city via ENSTAR's Anchorage area gas transmission pipeline system. 2.1.1 ENSTAR compressor upgrade plan In-ground storage is being added to address ongoing declines in annual production and peak day delivery.This storage will not be available for operation until after the winter of 2011/2012. Regardless of planned compression upgrades,east side flow capacity to Anchorage will remain limited by pipeline capacity. Maximum flow through a pipeline segment occurs when the inlet gas is at the pipeline maximum allowable operating pressure (MAOP)and the outlet pressure is at the desired target.MOAP of pipelines downstream of Kalifonsky and Gudenrath stations are 880 and 1050 psig respectively. In order to increase flow past this maximum,intermediate compressor stations must be added or new pipelines installed in parallel with existing ones (known as line looping). CEA,ENSTAR and MLP March,2011 Page 1 White Paper:CIGGS East to West Flow Maximum east side system flow will occur when the Gudenrath discharge pressure is 1050 psig. Various methods exist to achieve MAOP at Gudenrath discharge,but the least expensive and quickest is to add compression at both Kalifonsky and Gudenrath stations.ENSTAR plans to upgrade and add new compression at these stations in stages as shown in Table 2.1.Compression additions and upgrades are shown in red font with off-line spare compression shown in blue font. "K1”through "K5”refer to numbers of individual compressor units at Kalifonsky.Similar numbering is used for Gudenrath.

ENSTAR's operating philosophy is to have one off-line spare compressor unit available at each compressor station for back up reasons.ENSTAR could operate all four Gudenrath units for a gain of about 6 MMscfd as shown in Figure 2.4.ENSTAR plans to replace aging compression at Kalifonsky with larger equipment during the summer of 2012,which will reduce sensitivity of overall system capacity to Kalifonsky inlet pressure.

Currently gas from the Steelhead platform can be transported across Cook Inlet through CIGGS for injection into in-ground storage near Nikiski,consumed on the Kenai peninsula,transported on ENSTAR pipelines to Anchorage,or routed west on BPL toward the BRU and then on the ENSTAR Beluga pipeline.Gas near Granite Point Junction may be routed west to east through CIGGS,or can be routed northeast on BPL towards the BRU and to the ENSTAR Beluga pipeline. Approximately half of the 60 MMscfd from the Steelhead platform is Marathon (MAP) production which may be shipped to the LNG plant or other consuming parties.MAP has the option to deliver Steelhead gas to CEA (effective April 1,2011),ENSTAR (under current contracts)or other consuming parties.CEA's preference is to purchase MAP's Steelhead gas, which can be transported from Granite Point northeast on BPL to the Beluga Power Plant (BPP). The balance of Steelhead production is Unocal's and is usually transported across CIGGS to the east side for sale to ENSTAR or temporarily stored in Swanson River.Unocal's Steelhead gas can physically be tendered to ENSTAR at ENSTAR's Beluga pipeline,incurring incremental pipeline tariffs for transport via Marathon's Beluga pipeline from Granite Point to ENSTAR's Beluga pipeline. Aurora transports approximately 5 MMscfd via Marathon's Beluga pipeline and then ENSTAR's Beluga pipeline for delivery to Fairbanks Natural Gas west of Wasilla.BRU gas is currently contracted to supply a portion of the BPP,supply MLP's power plants and meet Union's obligations to ENSTAR.Approximately 15 MMscfd of production north and east of the BPP is delivered into ENSTAR's system including gas from Ivan River,Stump Lake and Lewis River fields;and from Pretty Creek in-ground storage. 2.3 In-ground storage There is limited in-ground gas storage on the west side of Cook Inlet at the Pretty Creek Storage Facility and there are currently only conceptual plans for development of more west side storage. Gas is currently being stored in-ground on the east side of Cook Inlet in the Swanson River and Kenai Gas fields.CINGSA's new in-ground storage in the Cannery Loop field,on the east side of Cook Inlet,will supplement existing storage and is expected to be operational by the winter of 2012-2013. Historically a significant portion of Cook Inlet gas production was liquefied at the Kenai LNG plant for export to Japan.ConocoPhillips and Marathon recently announced that the Kenai LNG plant will be shut down in the spring of 2011.It is unclear how the LNG plant shut down will CEA,ENSTAR and MLP March,2011 Page 5 White Paper:CIGGS East to West Flow affect seasonal Cook Inlet gas production.There is a concern by the producers that summer 2011 production curtailment may have an adverse effect on reserves and deliverability. 3 Projected Cook Inlet flow scenarios,winter 2011/2012 Natural gas supplies and demand have changed over the past decades with relatively more production and gas storage on the east side of Cook Inlet than on the west.Currently,all gas from east side production and storage must flow north through ENSTAR's dual pipeline system across Turnagain Arm to reach Anchorage.As discussed elsewhere,ENSTAR is upgrading and adding compression on their east side system,but a practical flow limit exists without adding new pipelines. Cook Inlet gas producers,consumers and transporters are concerned that the overall Cook Inlet gas pipeline transportation system may be insufficient to move gas from the Nikiski area to consumers during cold days of high demand and very cold days of peak demand.Diagrams of possible Cook Inlet flow scenarios for the winter of 2011/2012 are offered in this section to illustrate that gas consumers will be best served by: 1.Removing check valves in the dual CIGGS sub-sea pipeline to allow gas flow from southeast to northwest across Cook Inlet;hereafter referred to as east-west flow;and 2.Adding temporary compression at KPL junction on the east side to enhance east-westflowwhileaccommodatingmanycommercialissuesbetweenParties. Flow diagrams are discussed assuming the above two proposals have been implemented.General Cook Inlet operations are described in Section 3.1.1.Detailed discussions of these proposals follow presentation of the flow diagrams. For the purposes of this document,a cold day is defined as any combination of weather conditions that results in a system-wide Cook Inlet demand of 350 MMscfd."Cold day”and "350 MMscfd demand”are used interchangeably in this document.An extreme cold day is defined as any weather circumstance that results in system-wide Cook Inlet demand of 425 MMscfd.The terms "extreme cold day”,"425 MMscfd demand”and "design peak”refer to the same circumstance. 3.1 Cold day flow at 350 MMscfd 3.1.1 All equipment on-line General configurations of Cook Inlet pipelines with MAOP are shown in Table 3.1.It is important to note that CIGGS pipelines have higher MAOPs than the pipelines to which they connect.Production from Steelhead and Granite Point area is compressed to enter the CIGGS system at high pressure. Cold day operation with all production and gas transmission equipment on-line is depicted in Figure 3.1.Referring to Figure 3.1,approximately 25 MMscfd of MAP's relatively high pressure production from the Steelhead platform plus approximately 5 MMscfd of Aurora Granite Point area production can flow through MPL's Beluga pipeline to the BPP.MAP's production can CEA,ENSTAR and MLP March,2011 Page 6 White Paper:CIGGS East to West Flow either be consumed within the BPP or pass around the plant with Aurora's gas to enter the lower pressure ENSTAR Beluga pipeline.

Unocal Swanson River 16 222?1200 During a cold day,collectively about 15 MMscfd of west side gas supply would be available from Ivan River,Stump Lake,Lewis River and Pretty Creek Storage.All west side production routed through ENSTAR's Beluga pipeline would be consumed by west side demand with approximately 10 MMscfd required to pass through Anchorage to Palmer to make up the shortfall in west side production.The alternative to transport additional gas through the ENSTAR dual pipelines under this scenario is not certain due to pipeline pressure problems involving gas transport through Anchorage to the Wasilla/Palmer area. Approximately 35 MMscfd of Steelhead production would be routed through the high pressure CIGGS system to KPL junction where it would either sent to storage at Swanson River or tendered to ENSTAR via the Royalty line,or routed down KNPL to ENSTAR.Unocal has invested capital to configure their Steelhead production to take advantage of CIGGS high operating pressure so that gas delivered to the east side can be injected it into Swanson River storage with less compression than otherwise,or delivered to ENSTAR's Kenai pipelines without additional compression. Gas is delivered to Homer Electric Association (HEA)from MPL's KNPL.Gas is delivered to Kenai from various sources prior to the inlet of ENSTAR's Kalifonsky station.Approximately 15 MMscfd would be delivered to Soldotna and other consumers from the ENSTAR dual pipeline system between Kalifonsky and Gudenrath stations (shown on the drawing as H/K/S near Soldotna).

Only one of many postulated circumstances for gas flow around the BPP and BRU is depicted. Regardless of how gas would be physically consumed by or routed around the BPP,25 MMscfd of gas that prior was routed through MPL's CIGGS dual lines from west to east must now be routed through MPL's Beluga pipeline with potential impact on tariffs. The flow rate to Anchorage via ENSTAR's east side system to Anchorage would not change.

East side supply routed east to west would come from KKPL to KNPL,KNPL,North Cook Inlet,Swanson River or Royalty pipelines,all of which operate at a lower pressure than CIGGS. Either CIGGS pipeline pressure must be reduced or east side compression installed for east side gas to enter CIGGS.For reasons described in Section 3.2.2,installation of temporary rental compression is proposed to allow flow from KPL junction east to west through CIGGS.

Availability of east side supply will be a challenge for all peak flow scenarios.The following peak flow scenarios are based on removal of CIGGS check valves and installation of compression at KPL junction. 3.2.1 All equipment on-line,location of temporary compression Operation of the Cook Inlet gas transmission system subject to peak flow on an extremely cold day with all supply and gas transmission equipment on-line is shown in Figure 3.4.Flow through ENSTAR's east Cook Inlet system is shown at a rate greater than simulated flow at low KNPL inlet pressure,but less than 230 MMscfd simulated maximum flow achieved with higher KNPL inlet pressures (see Table 2.2).This mid-range value was selected to reasonably depict operation below theoretical maximum.

CEA,ENSTAR and MLP March,2011 Page 12 White Paper:CIGGS East to West Flow Line pack Without proposed east side gas compression,CIGGS operating pressure would have to be reduced below that of KNPL in order for gas to move east to west.System pressures would progressively drop through CIGGS and MPL's Beluga pipeline to the BPP.Inlet pressure to ENSTAR's Beluga pipeline would be set at the outlet pressure from MPL's Beluga pipeline for gas to proceed northeast to Wasilla. By definition,a peak flow day is a circumstance in which most if not all Cook Inlet production and transportation equipment would be on line to meet demand.ENSTAR has historically operated its Beluga pipeline at around 800 psig to provide line pack to serve as emergency supply should transmission or production equipment fail thereby reducing gas deliverability. The stored gas by line pack allows for a 10-20 MMscf temporary supply to address producer or transportation issues. ENSTAR transports gas for MLP and CEA;however,these companies are not ENSTAR customers.Should MLP or CEA loose supply entering ENSTAR's system,ENSTAR would quickly curtail gas delivery to MLP or CEA respectively by the same amounts.Line pack maintained in the ENSTAR Beluga pipeline for ENSTAR customers also provides MLP and CEA very limited,but crucial time to secure replacement supplies. As depicted in Figure 3.5,loss of part of BRU production could result in more gas bypassing the Beluga power plant than available from the BRU.If ENSTAR operates its Beluga pipeline at normal pressures ensuring emergency line pack,and such pressures exceeded the pressure of gas delivered to the BPP from the south;plant bypass could not occur.Under such conditions only 60 MMscfd of high pressure gas would be available from the BRU,and a 10 MMscfd deliverability shortfall would occur in Wasilla. Installation of compression on the east side of Cook Inlet to allow east-west flow with high CIGGS operating pressures would increase system operating flexibility by allowing ENSTAR to maintain emergency line pack while gas bypass around the BPP. Gas bypass around the Beluga Power Plant As described above,if east to west deliveries are to be made,east side compression will be required to maintain existing gas contracts and deliveries.Shippers on MPL's BPL may have to enter into new contracts,gas trade/exchange agreements,or other commercial arrangements to make deliveries to the BPP and displace BRU production that would instead be delivered at a higher pressure into ENSTAR's system.The installation of east side Cook Inlet compression for east to west flow would alleviate these problems and allow deliveries to continue under existing agreements. East side pressure related issues Unocal currently transports gas from the Steelhead platform to Swanson River storage via CIGGS pipelines.Unocal operates its Swanson River storage injection compression to take advantage of relatively high suction pressures achieved via Steelhead compression and high CEA,ENSTAR and MLP March,2011 Page 13 White Paper:CIGGS East to West Flow CIGGS pipeline operating pressures.High CIGGS east side pressures provide Unocal with the option to preferentially route gas to ENSTAR's Royalty pipeline thereby bypassing Marathon's KNPL pipeline and avoiding the associated tariff. Unocal would like to retain the ability to inject gas into Swanson River during east to west flow through CIGGS.Gas can't simultaneously flow both directions through CIGGS and a trade agreement would be required for Unocal to receive equivalent gas volumes for Swanson River injection.At issue is whether traded gas available on the east side would be at the same pressure as Unocal's gas that otherwise would have been delivered west to east.Unocal would be disadvantaged if traded gas was at a lower pressure thereby requiring operation of incrementally more Swanson River injection compression. Compression could be installed at the west end of the CIGGS East pipeline where it intersects CIGGS dual sub-sea pipeline,or on the east of end of CIGGS East pipeline at KPL junction. MAOP of CIGGS dual sub-sea pipelines is greater than that of CIGGS East (see Table 3.1). Installing the compressor at the intersection of CIGGS East and dual sub-sea pipelines would allow higher compressor discharge pressures and theoretically more east-west flow capacity than if installed at KPL junction. Installing compression at the intersection of CIGGS East and dual sub-sea pipeline would not address Unocal's commercial issues described above because KPL junction operating pressure would be the same as KNPL.It is proposed to install the compression at KPL junction to mitigate adverse commercial impact to Unocal. 3.2.3 Loss of all production from the Steelhead platform Cook Inlet gas transmission pipeline flow subject to an extremely cold day and loss of all Steelhead platform supply is depicted in Figure 3.6.East side production will be severely taxed to provide the postulated 320 MMscfd deliverability.It is unlikely that the loss of Steelhead production could be replaced by production or storage gas on the peak day. The circumstance depicted in Figure 3.6 will create commercial issues for shippers because gas previously tendered to ENSTAR on the east side will be burdened with incremental tariffs from Marathon's CIGGS and Belugas pipelines.

It is possible to configure the CIGGS dual sub-sea pipeline to allow simultaneous flow in opposite directions.Valves and piping modifications to allow such bi-directional flow would be more expensive than simply removing CIGGS check valves.The proposed removal of CIGGS CEA,ENSTAR and MLP March,2011 Page 15 White Paper:CIGGS East to West Flow check valves is based on the premise that commercial terms can be developed to avoid the need for simultaneous bi-directional flow across Cook Inlet. 3.3.2 Install temporary gas compressor to enhance east-west flow East to west flow through CIGGS can be achieved by either lowering operating pressures of CIGGS,Marathon Beluga and ENSTAR Beluga pipelines to less than KNPL,causing the issues and challenges described above,or east to west flow can be achieved by installing compression at KPL junction to raise the pressure of gas from KNPL.Installation of compression at KPL junction will enhance security of flow for parties responsible to move gas from the east side of Cook Inlet to the west side during normal operations while also allowing ENSTAR to maintain pressure and line pack in their Beluga pipeline for contingency supply during periods of peak system-wide demand. Lowering west side operating pressures was rejected in favor of installing compression at KPL junction because: e ENSTAR Beluga line pack during periods of high or peak flow can be maintained; Gas can be transported under stress conditions from the Marathon 16 inch Beluga Line to the ENSTAR 20 inch Beluga line thereby providing more operational flexibility; Raising gas pressure at KPL junction provides more east side operational flexibility; Potential commercial issues associated with east to west flow are avoided,and; e CEA will have a full range of supply options for the BPP. 3.3.2.1.Compressor capacity Approximate throughput rates for a generic 1000 Hp reciprocating compressor are shown in Table 3.2.
