SummaryDelays in spacing approvals− Caused delays permitting new drills− COGCC has approved “new” spacing, but BLM is protesting

Delays in permitting P&A’s − Caused delays in frac schedule− P&A’s taking longer than anticipated

Plans ForwardPossible field‐wide spacing rules, but will take at years

East Pawnee spacing agreed by all operators− Slow because Noble and Whiting do not agree on spacing− Noble and Whiting have enough contiguous acreage to develop and testContinue to space wells with…− 640, 960, and 1,280 DSUs− 16 wells per section− 300’ internal wellbore setbacks− 300’ section line setbacks with no – BLM offsets and 600’ setbacks when BLM offsets

‒ 3 pumpers

Added a P&A rig to address offset wells that need to be P&A’s as a result of the DJBHO policy enacted by the COGCC

‒ Have P&A’d 4 out of 18 wells for the current schedule

Workovers are being prioritized based highest production impact for the JV

Continually seeking out improvements to the well design

‒ Testing new packerless downhole gas separator

‒ Duraseal coating treatment (ionic bonding)

‒ Electrification to fully utilize POC’s

Niobrara OPCOMProduction Review (cont’d)

17

Scheduled = The drilling rig returning to pad sites with producing wells to add a down space wells in 2013 was a significant source of deferred production.  This factor is expected to be much lower in 2014 due to drilling primarily taking place on new pads

‒ Artificial lift installation delays caused by equipment shortages have been alleviated by adding additional equipment and procuring orders in advance for 2014 activity

Surface/Mechanical = Jet pump/Rod pump engine or equipment related deferred production should be reduced by the addition of a Field Tech to help the foreman troubleshoot and keep equipment in top performing condition

Downhole = Scale, corrosion, and other downhole contributors to deferred production are being addressed at each stage of the well life

‒ Fine tuning bactericide treatments using kill studies

‒ Chemical treatments utilizing ideal downhole BHA

Weather = Blizzards, floods, and freezing all had and effect on production.  Although this is a smaller piece of the deferred production we have strategies now in place to mitigate the deferred production from weather

‒ Utilize commercial heaters

‒ Use temporary additional man power during anticipated severe weather events

Noble Energy, Inc. Yes No Yes Yes

Over the past few months Carrizo has been working with Noble to resolve various issues outstanding. The teams have made significant progress resolving division order and title issues and obtaining signed JOAs from Noble. As a result, Carrizo is currently releasing approximately $9 million of revenue to Noble. Carrizo not currently paying Noble JIBs as the land departments of each company are currently working through certain working interest issues. Noble has paid Carrizo on three wells and other wells remain in suspense due to working interest issues being resolved.

Whiting Oil & Gas Yes Yes Yes Yes

Carrizo has been in negative revenue suspense since September 2012 as prior revenues were paid at a higher working interest and companies are working to get appropriate interests in order. Carrizo is still waiting on Whiting to correct certain deck issues.
