Dear Lany:

As per our recent conversation with Paul Findley, this letter outlines our revised scope of work
aad cost estimate to revise GEOSCIENCE's third task under the Beach Vlell Feed Water Supply
Investigation:

4.1

Beach lVell Feed Water Suppty Investigation

Purpose and Scope

The purpose of Task 4.1 will be to investigate the feasibility of constructing horizontal
directionally drilled wells (HDD) which will serve as the intake supply for the Moss Landing
Seawater Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) plant. It is understood that the supply requirement from the
wells will be approximately 42 mgd.. The work will investigate well design strategies and
technology needed to adapt traditional horizontal well drilling methods, which are currently used
for oil and gas production, to construction of near-shore intake wells for the Moss Landing
SWRO plant. The work will focus on novel well design and completion teehniques that will
optimize well and filter pack design methods. Specific subtasks are described below:

4.1 Background Data collection

Investigation

and Assessment

28-May-04

Moss Landing

Collect and assess all available reports and data pertaining to geohydrologic characteristics in the
vicinity of the Moss Landing SWRO plant. Data review will include, bur not limited to data on
existing wells, borings, pumping tests, geologic maps, cross sections, wate levels, published
reports, informal reports, technical memorandums and any other relevant data.

Task

4.2 Field Site Investigation -

Moss Landing

A field investigation will be made of potential HDD well sites. Potenrial sires will consider both
HDD production potential as well as identify any site issues which may prove problematic in
construction of hoizontal wells or proximity to the SWRO plant. During the field
reconnaissance, a location for the explCIratory/test boring will also be determined.

Task 4.3 [nvestigaton of the Feasibility of HDD Intake at the Armstrong Ranch Site in
Marina
This task will characteze the subsurface materials and hydraulic properties in the aquifer
systems in the vicinity of Armstrong Ranch area. For example, chamctezation will determine
the extent and nature of the 180-ft and 400-ft aquifers beneath the site, their production potential,
and their water quality. To assist in this task, a variable density ground water rnodel will be used
to simulate both project flows, water quality (TDS, chlorides), and impacts on

freshwater/saltwater. aquifers.

Task 4.4 Investigate technology needed to drill and complete HDD wells:

This tsk will involve a collaborative effort between petroleum industry technology, ground
water well driiling technology; well casing aRd screen companies and leading horizontal well
construction firms. The key to developing HDD technology as a viable source for SIVRO supply
is to develop a method which can:

1) Stabilize boreholes in

unconsolidated materials which are typically found at shallow

depths beneath the sea floor and enable completion of pre-packed (or post-packecl)
screens in a horizontal bore;

2)

Design and construct long-horizontal wells which can provide sufficient flow to meet
SIVRO intake demand.

This task will evaluate and recommend the best drilling and completion technology which may
be subsequently evaluated in a foliow-up investigation where a pilot horizontal well would be
drilled and completed. Potential methods include:
a

Use of petroleum drilling "mud motor" technology followed by enlarging the borehole
prior to placing casing and screen string.

Develop a methodology for placement of filter packed screens to long distances in

horizontally drilling borehole.

Test the effectiveness of pre or post-packed screens in meeting intake requirements

V/ork with well-screen manufactures to develop a cost-effective technology for

producing a filter-packed well screen capable of being placed in a horizontal well beneath
the sea bed.

Task 4.5 Summary Report

The results from all the tasks will be summarized irto a comprehensive report discussing the
feasibility of using HDD wells as the 42 mg souice for the Moss Landing SIVRO plant.
Essential sections of the report will include:

Onsite lnspection during Drilling, Construction and Development of Test Slant Well

Field inspection would be provided on a part-time basis during borehole drilling. Formation samples
would be collected at 1-0 ft intervals {or more frequently depending on the stratigraphy encounteredi.
Samples would be identified as to material type and production potential by visually logging them in the

field using the Unified Soil Classification System

(USCS).

Using visual methods, up to ten (10) samples would be selected from materials collected from the
borehole for mechanical grain size {i.e., sieve) analysis to assess permeability, sand migration potential,
and uniformity coefficients. These analyses would be used as a basis for preparing the design for the

graded filter pack and well screen.

Based on results from the mechanical grading analyses, GEOSCIENct would design the

filter pack with a

pack to aquifer ratio of between 4 and 2A, as well as using Terzaghi's criteria for the movement of fines
through the filter pack, and for the permeability of the aquifer and filter pack. Based on mechanical
grain size analysis, targeted aquifers would be identified. The final well design would include
recommended depth intervals and diameters for the well casing and screen, recommended borehole
diameter(s), and the proper screen opening size to complement the filter pack design. The
recommended design would be submitted to RBF in electronic format for review and comment before
implementation in the field.
Full-time inspection would be provided during installation of the casing, screen, appurtenances, filter
pack, and annular seal to ensure that all materials are furnished and placed in accordance with the
recommended design and technical specifications. Prior to installation, GEOSCIENCE personnel would
inspect the filter pack material and the well casing and screen for compliance with the specified well

design, As the filter pack and cement seal are being installed, GEOSCIENCE personnl would track the
volume placed against the theoretical volume to ensure that there are no voids forming or bridging
occurring within the annular space.

lnitial well development by airlifting and swabbing is an extremely important component of the well
completion and development process, GEOSCIENC would provide full-time inspection during the airlift

development prcess and would closely monitor discharge water turbidity and sand content to track the
development progress of the well.

would monitor final development by pumping and surging on a part-time basis. Tests for
sand content and specific capacity would be performed frequently to rneasure the advancement of the
development process and to ensure that the well is fully developed before beginning the aquifer

of a properly designed and installed filter pack will control sand production from the well when
pumping. The pre-desgned filter pack gradation would be verified based on mechanical grading
analysis performed on ten aquifer intervals. The design will be designed based on industry standards
Use

regarding pack-to-aquifer ratios. The size of the screen openings will be designed to allow a minimal but
acceptable amount of filter pack material to move through the screen. This controlled movement of
filter pack mteral would permit the proper development of the filter pack and near-well zone.

2.3

Aquifer Pumping Tests

Once the well development process is considered complete, aquifer pumping tests would be performed

to determine well and aquifer characteristics. The network of nearby observation wells wou{d
monitored during constant rate testing

to provide

be

interference data and enable more accurate

estimation of aquifer parameters. The following aquifer pumping tests would be performed:
a

Step Drawdown Pumng Test: time drawdown measurements would be made to determine
specific capacity and well efficiency relationships that are necessary to calculate the optimal
production rate and pump setting. Typically three to four rates are selected for pumping,
beginning with the lowest rate and progressing to the highest.

Constant Rate Pumplng and Recoverv Test: time drawdown and recovery measurements would
be made to estimate aquifer parameters. lf possible, nearby wells would also be monitored to
obtain interference ground water levels during the test.

would montor final development by pumping and surging on a part-time basis. Sand
content and specific capacity would be montored to track the advancement of the development
process, to ensure that each well is fully developed before installing pressure and conductivity
transducers, At the end of the development process, water quality samples for analysis for general
mineral and physical properties would be collected. For cost estimating purposes, it is assumed that RBF
would be responsible for the water quality laboratory fees and would contract directly with the
GEOSCIENCT

laboratory.

sediment from the bottom of the well. A final downhole video survey would be performed to document
the post-construction condition of the well. GEOSCIENC would also provide inspection for an
alignment survey of the well, the purpose of which is to measure wll straightness, angle and alignment.
GEOSCIENCE

would provide inspection of the final wellhead completion to ensur that the well casing,
and screen, as well as any required appurtenances are finished as described by the technical
specifications and/or well design. The post-constructon condition of the well site woulcl also be

Field inspection would be provided on a part-time basis during borehole drilling. Formation samples
would be collected as continuous cores, with samples identified as to material type and production
potential by visually logging them in the field using the Unified Soii Classification System {USCS}. Upon

completion of the borehole drilling, GEOSCIENCE personnelwould provide full-time onste inspection of
the geophysical borehole logging (i.e., dual induction, temperature and fluid resistivty logs). lf
subsurface conditions permit, short- and long-normal resistivity, guard or lateral, self potential, and
gamma-ry logs would be conducted instead of the dual induction logs.
Using the visual and geophysical logs collected frorn the borehole, up to nine (g) samples would be
selected for mechanical grain size {i.e., sieve) analysis to assess permeability, sand migration potential,
and uniformity coefficients. These analyses would be used as a basis for preparing the custom flter
pack and well screen design for the well.

3.2

Mechanicai Gradng Analysis to Verify Pre-eslgned Filter Pack Gradation

Use of a properly designed and installed filter pack will control sand production from the well when
pumping. The pre-designed filter pack gradation will loe verified based on mechanical grading analysis
performed on nine aquifer intervals. The design will be designed based on industry standards regarding

pack-to-aquifer ratios. The size of the screen openings would be designed to allow a minimal but
acceptable amount of filter pack material to move through the screen. This controiled movement of
filter pack material would permit the proper development of the filter pack and near-well zone.

3.3

Onsite lnspectisn during rilling, Construction and neveloprnen{ of Test Slant Well

Field inspection would be provided on a part-tme basis during borehole drilling. Formation samples
would be collected at 10 ft intervals (or more frequently depending on the stratigraphy encountered).
Samples would be identified as to material type and production potential byvisually logging them in the
field using the Unified Soil Classificaron Sysrem {USCS).
Using visual methods, up to ten {10} samples would be selected from materials collected frem the
borehole for mechanical grain size (i.e., sieve) analysis to assesi permeability, sand migration potential,
and uniformity coefficients. These analyses would be used as a basls for preparing the design for the
graded filter pack and well screen.
Based on results from the mechanical grading analyses, GECISCIENc would design the filter pack with a
pack to aquifer ratio of between 4 and 20, as well as using Terzaghi's criteria for the movement of fines

through the flter pack, and for the permeability of the aquifer and filter pack. Based on rnechanical
grain size analyss, targeted aquifers would be identified. Ihe final well design would include
recomtrended depth intervals and diameters for the well casing and screen, recommended borehole
diameter{s}, and the proper screen opening size to cornplement the filter pack design. The
recommended design would be submitted to R8F n electronic format for review and comment before
implementaton in the field.

Full-time inspection would be provided during installation of the casing, screen, appurtennces, filter
pack, and annular seal to ensure that all materils are furnished and placed in accorclance with the

recommended design and technical specifications. Prir to installation, GEOSCIENCE personnel would
inspect the filter pack material and the well casing and screen for compliance with the specified well
design. As ihe filter pack and cement seal are being installecl, GEOSCIENCE personnel would track the
volume placed against the theoretical volume to ensure that there are no voids fonning or bridging
occurring within the annular space.

lnitial well development by airlifting and swabbing is an extremely important component of the well
completion ancJ development process. OSCIENCE would provide full-time inspection during the airlift
development process and would closely monitor discharge water turbidity and sand content tc track the
development progress of the well.

GEOSCIENC would monitor final development by pumping and surging on a part,time basis. Tests for
sand content and specific capacity wouid be performed frequently to measure the advancement of the

development process and to ensure that ihe well is fully developed before beginning the aquifer
pumping tests.

Mechanical rading Analysis to verify Pre-Designed Filter pack Gradation

Use of a properly designed and installed filter pack will control sand production from the well when

purnping. The pre-designed filter pack gradation would be verified based on mechanical grading
analysis performed on ten aquifer intervals. Ihe design will be designed based on industry standards

regarding pack-to-aquifer ratios. The size of the screen openings will be designed to allow a minimal but
acceptable amount of filter pack material to move through the screen. This controlled movement of

flter pack material would permit the proper development of the filter pack and near-well zone.

Based on results from the mechanical grading analyses, GEOSCIFNCE would design the filter pack with a
pack to aquifer ratio of between 4 and 20, as well as usng Terzaghi's criteria for the movement of fines

through the filter pack, and for the perrneability cf the aquifer and filter pack. Based on lithology,
geophysical borehole logs, and mechanical grain size analysis, aquifers would be identified. The final
well design would include recommended depth intervals fo the well casing and screen, recommended

lorehole diameteris), and the proper screen opening size to complement the filter pack design, The
recommended design would be submitted to RBt in electronc format for review and comment before
implemerrtation in the field.

Full-time nspection would be provided during installation of the casing, screenj filter pack, and annular
seal to ensure that all materials are furnished and placed in accordance with the recommended design

and technical specfcations. Prior to installation, GEosc'NCE personnel would inspect the filter pack
materal and the well casing and screen for corhpliance with the specified well design. As the filter pack
and cement seal are being installed, GOSCENCE personnel would track the volume placed against the
theoretical volurne to ensure that there are no voids forming or bridging occurring within the annular

space.

GEOSCIENCE would provide full-time inspection during the airlift development process ancl would
closely montor discharge water turbidity and sand content to track the clevelopment progress of the

Use of a properly designed and installed filter pack will control sand production from the well when
pumping, The pre-designed filter pack gradation will be verified based on mechanical gradng analysis
performed on nine aquifer intervals. The design will be desgned based on industry standards regarding

pack-to-aquifer ratos. The size of the screen openings would be designed to allow a minimal but
acceptable mount of filter pack material to move through the screen. This controllecj movement of
filter pack material would permit the proper deveLcpment of the filter pack and near-well zone.
