    Bakken Production Optimization Program BAKKEN PRODUCTION OPTIMIZATION PROGRAM 2.0 PROSPECTUS PROGRAM INTRODUCTION Led by the Energy & Environmental Research Center (EERC), the highly successful Bakken Production Optimization Program (BPOP), funded by its members and the North Dakota Industrial Commission, is continuing for the time frame of 2017–2020. The goal of this research program, BPOP 2.0, is to improve Bakken system oil recovery and reduce its environmental footprint. The results of the 3-year program will increase well productivity and the economic output of North Dakota’s oil and gas resources, decrease environmental impacts of wellsite operations, and reduce demand for infrastructure construction and maintenance. BPOP 1.0 PARTNERS A premier partnership program was recently completed which has been cited as an exemplary model by others nationwide. It has demonstrated that state lawmakers, state regulators, and industry can work together for positive results for shareholders and taxpayers alike.

We are forging ahead on many fronts, including the completion of this special issue of spirit Magazine featuring the annual SPIRIT of Performance Awards. One of the most important responsibilities of my job is meeting with ConocoPhillips employees and listening to their ideas and concerns. During the past quarter, I visited China, Malaysia and Indonesia and saw the amazing work our people are doing on projects such as additional development phases at the Peng Lai field in Bohai Bay; production rampup and an active exploration program in Malaysia; and an initiative to sell more gas in Indonesia. During a visit to Alaska, I heard excitement around our Willow discovery in the National Petroleum Reserve and the active upcoming winter drilling campaign. In July, the company’s board of directors joined me on a visit to our Bakken operations in North Dakota, where the team patiently answered all our questions and showed why ConocoPhillips is recognized as an operator of choice in that important region.
