WPX Development of Monument Draw Acreage LANDING/CASING/SPACING DIFFERENTLY DELINEATION FOR DIVESTMENT FELIX DEVELOPMENT PROCESS TIMELINE WPX FUTURE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS Primary Target Co-Development Focus (3BSL & UPPER WC) 2018: Initial parent well development Application of WPX Operations Practices Late 2018-Early 2019: Multi bench co-development • Targeted drilling & steering 2019-Early 2020: Fully bounded infill development • Completion optimization (stage size, cluster spacing, well spacing) (as seen above). Flowback Trials & Testing • Push for area wide ‘more aggressive’ slowback • Eliminate reservoir damage, improve wellbore cleanout, and improve well returns Note: WPX will continue to appraise additional development & co-development options in other benches. Above is the focus on ‘primary’ targets. 7
