Unproduced Oil and Gas Zones Arbuckle Overview

� Main target is the Arbuckle formation, a water-drive reservoir system that has yielded 2.4 billion barrels since the late-1920s

� Typically outfit new or recompleted Arbuckle wells with high volume submersible pumps

� Typical well will produce 10-40 BOPD and with proper well density, these oil rates can increase

� Untapped Potential

� Formation has been produced almost exclusively from its topmost layer

� Productive lower Arbuckle intervals exist in every major CKU field. These zones were only sporadically produced—mainly due to a lack of information sharing among an unsophisticated, under-capitalized producer base

� Behind Pipe Reserves

� Recent cased hole logs on Richfield’s wells identify significant new reserves in two of Central Kansas’ largest fields

Utah and Wyoming Asset Overview

Central Utah Overthrust— a string of pearls

• 40% of world oil reserves are arrayed along thrust belts.

• The North American Thrust Belt runs from Alaska (Prudhoe Bay) to Mexico (Cantrell Field).

� Four billion barrels of oil-equivalent (BOE) found in Canadian Overthrust.

� National and state parks, great depths and extreme volcanism have limited activity in Montana and northwestern Wyoming

� Two billion BOE found in northeast Utah and southwest Wyoming in 1970’s and 80’s

• Two large reported discoveries on both the Paxton and the Gunnison Thrust confirm productivity of Central Utah Overthrust.

� Covenant Field, discovered in 2003/4, has estimated 150 million Bbls with 13 million BO produced to date.

� Providence Field, discovered in 2008, multi pay system. Production testing is underway.

Central Utah Overthrust—Source and Migration Pathway

Mississippian Source BasinSeveral Billion barrels of Oil Generated

The U.S. Geological Survey estimates that several billion barrels of oil were generated from Mississippian aged (359-318 million year old) source rocks, mostly likely the Chainman Shale, in western Utah and Nevada. However, only 65 billion barrels has been found in Utah’s Tar sands.

• Oil found in the Covenant Field has a different source.

• The HPI Liberty #1 discovered pristine Mississippian Oil from this large source basin, for the first time.

• This identifies a migration pathway from Western Utah, into the Central Utah Overthrust.

• There are many more undrilled structural closures in the central Utah over-thrust, the largest of which is Richfield’s HUOP Freedom Trend Prospect.

• That prospect covers 11 contiguous miles on the northern end of the Gunnison Thrust.Providence Field

Categorized Seismically as several times larger than Providence Discovery

Wolverine Gas and Oil Company’s Covenant Field and subsequent Oxy/Wolverine Providence field discoveries in 2003/4 and 2008, show important similarities with Fountain Green.

• Richfield's position covers the largest identified undrilled structure in the Central Utah Overthrust. • We anticipate a discovery in three stacked Navajo formations, 1,000+ feet thick each, filled to spill point.• The Freedom Trend prospect is in the Mississippian oil migration path.

HUOP Freedom Trend Prospect

High Energy Wedge

delineated by blue faults

•There is a High Energy Wedge (HEW), intersecting the top of the Cretaceous backthrust in Fountain Green. •This appears to be a collapsed zone with extensive natural fracturing. •The HEW is about 2,500’ thick, covers about 17 Square miles. The potential reserves of this system are as large as the Navajo potential.•The HEW is up-dip of where the Tununk Shale is currently generating hydrocarbons

This structure map of the Emery Fm, is based off of 2-D Seismic, and is overlaid with our Geochemical anomaly survey. I t is extremely interesting to note that the Geochemical anomalies are outlined by the faults (in blue) that delineate the High Energy Wedge.

HUOP Freedom Trend Prospect - Cretaceous Reservoirs

The Cretaceous-Tertiary unconformity is in a position to be an excellent trap for hydrocarbons in the Cretaceous Backthrust.

• In 1976, Hansen Oil drilled the Moroni #1A, to a TD of 21,260’, looking for a Mississippian Objective

• Circulation was lost in the naturally fractured Tununk Shale (Lower Mancos) at 11,551’. Oil flowed continuously to the pits. It took 4 months to drill past it and set casing. The well was later plugged.

• In 1998 Cimarron drilled a horizontal Sidetrack in the Tununk with 6 failed laterals.

• Limited perforations in the Tununk, through the stuck drill pipe, have tested as much as 720 BOPD, but Severe mechanical constrictions and LCM’s have combined to make this discovery well inoperative in it’s current condition.

Tununk Shale Fracturing

When the Horizontal was being drilled, Lost Circulation Materials were recovered over 300’ from where they were put in the ground during the 1976 drilling operations. This shows extreme natural fracturing.

The extreme nature of the fracturing at the Moroni #1 AXZH is confirmed by the Dipole Shear Anisotropy log at right.

Because Richfield’s acreage is on the Western side of the Tununk play, close to where the shoreline was, there are fewer clays, and more quartz, which allows the shale to be fractured and maintain those fractures.

A good shale play is defined by having total organic carbon (“TOC’s) greater than 2%, high thermal maturity and a brittle nature that can be fractured. Natural Fractures eliminate the need for Hydraulic Fracturing, saving money reducing possible environmental/political issues.

The Tununk member of the Mancos shale is thick, has high TOC’s, interbedded sandstones, natural fractures, and a high pressure gradient, which should yield a higher than average recovery factor.
