2013 AGM Presentation

Rig-less exploration and monitoring

• • A large portion of the undiscovered oil and gas resources are expected tobe located in the Environmentally Sensitive Area . The cost of exploring these areas has increased to a level where the oil and gas companies now are turning down proposals to drill exploration wells.
• • In for example an Arctic offshore setting, Badger Explorer will be able to deliver exploratory wells to a cost in the range of 15 – 20 mill USD. This represents a dramatic cost reduction when comparing a Badger Arctic exploration well to a conventional well which might have a price tag of 200 –300 mill USD.
• • In addition the Badger Explorer will not represent any environmental exposure or threat.

• • It is our belief that the Badger Technology will contribute to making it politically acceptable to explore onshore and offshore in Environmentally Sensitive Area .

• •Demonstrator Program Milestone program ongoing

• • Ultrasonic Drilling
• • Project started internally and at partner companies, including Schott in Germany, InPhase Norway and Etrema US.
• • Self Cleaning Bit
• •2nd generation prototype arrived mid March, testing ongoing
• •Patent pending
• •Drilled in real formation last week

•Dry Cuttings Transport System

• • Development of transport system for dry and wet cuttings
• •Work performed by Honeybee Robotics in the US
• •Full scale prototype completed
• • Research Council of Norway (RCN) Petromaks2 program
• • BXPL awarded funding for 3-years long project
  • •RCN covers 50% of 26.4 MNOK
• •Development of HPHT Ultrasonic transducers

Milestone 2 - Completed in 2013

Milestone 2 approved by SCM 1st March 2013

• Tool specification adjusted according to latest findings
• Transport mechanism chosen based on latest knowledge
• Prototype communication system designed and successfully tested
• Anchor and packers module concepts chosen
• Prototype cable store successfully tested.

Milestone 3 - Completed in 2013

Milestone 3 approved by SCM on October 29 2013

•All modules critical for Badger Explorer tool ready for testing

Movie of the actual layout available on our website: www.bxpl.com

• • Milestone 4 approved at the SCM on January 29th ²⁰¹⁴
• •Pending completion of PGS module (was completed Feb15)

Module Test: Beta Tool

The individual modules required for the Beta Tool must first be function tested when in stand-alone mode. Each module must perform essentially as specified, but variations from specification are permitted if they:

• •are acceptable for the field pilot conditions;
• •do not affect other functionality of the tool as a system;
• or
• •can be addressed with a high-confidence fix prior to full-scale testing

Module physical test

The initial stage is to verify the basic functionality of each module, e.g. supplying specified hydraulic pressure, or checking slurry lines for leakage.

This test is performed in a workshop environment, and qualifies the module for Module process testing.

Movies of various tests completed available on our website: www.bxpl.com

System Function Test

Once interoperability of all modules has been confirmed, a full function test is to be performed of the entire Beta Tool as system.

This test requires all modules to be physically connected (i.e. without temporary flexible connectors, multiple modules connected if this is required for full tool operation, etc.)

Without access to intermediate test points, the System Function Test focuses on whether the tool functions can be made to operate, even if limitations are present or workarounds are required.

Milestone 5 – to be done in Q3 2014

Milestone 5

The revised Milestone 6 has three deliverables:

• 1. Evaluation of Badger Explorer (BE) Demonstrator Program
• 1. Full report on BE 125 Demonstrator tool and recommendation for improvements based on MS5 test
• 1. Scope of work for BE Development Program

In parallel with this the BXPL team will continue the R&D into the main challenges, including drilling, transport, compaction and locomotion.

The R&D efforts combined with the MS5 and MS6 will provide a solid starting point for the BE Development Program.

The revised Milestone 6, and the Badger Explorer Demonstrator Program will be concluded by the end of Q4 2014.

Description

• •Driven by development of technical solutions
• •Use TRL (Technology Readiness Level) as decision gates
• •Identify critical sub-systems (drilling, transport, comp, locomotion, …)
• •Use model as integrated part of development
• •Find solutions to the critical components and prove the solutions
• •Finally, build a tool around the proved solutions

Advantages with new approach

• •Reduces risk early
• •Closer interaction with partners, ensure targets are aligned
• •Costly tool build postponed until solutions are proven

BXPL propose to organize the Development program by using the (existing) Demonstrator tool as a full-scale test bench for solutions developed.

This will be done in parallel with the development of next generation tool, and it will give valuable real-life data to validate the models and test requirements
