    Terry Jordon met with representatives from the Minerals Management Service to discuss BP's standard Gulf of Mexico Formation Pressure Integrity Procedure. The MMS understood BP's views on the procedure and agreed with BP's methods. The MMS confirmed they still want to approve drilling mud weights within 0.5 ppg of the formation integrity test/leak-off test value but will grant approvals down to 0.3 ppg or 0.2 ppg if justified. The MMS had several questions about BP's use of new technology tools and agreed it would be beneficial to schedule an operational technology overview later in the year to better understand BP's operations.

Yesterday ScherieDouglas and I met with the MMS (MikeSaucier, DaveTrocquet, and engineer trainee) discuss to BP'sstandard GoM Formalion Pressure lntegrity Procedure. It was a great meeting with a lot of discussion. They understood viewson the procedure. our They understood methodof pumpingdown boththe drillpipe and casingside no greaterIhan 112 our bpm to make frictionpressure negligible. They understood takinga leakofftest to the pointrvhere pressure the curveclearlybreaksover,and to reportthe pressure. maximum They agreedthat whatwe slale lo reporton the IADCis clear,and preferthe use of surfacemud weightsas we have notedfor the IADC. Theycorrlirmed stillwantto approve they drillirrg our mudweightis . 0.5 ppg of FIT/LOT if value,butwillgrant approvals down to 0.3 ppg or 0.2 ppg if a case can be made. They had questions severaltopics(for example, explained of I how we are usingStethescope GeoTaptoolsto get / pore pressures whiledrilling - they were not awareof this). I believeit wouldbe good relationship building we if schedule D&Coperations technology a and overview withthemlaterthisyear. Theyreally wantto better understand operations our better(especially new technology). They understand how expensive is now.and want it to workwithus to improve operations. Mick, The Confidence Horizon and teamsare currently usingthe procedure/workbook. discuss I will withyou how bestto rollthis out to the DWPteams. Thanks Terry
