3 5. OPERATING PROCEDURES 5.1 GENERAL Stone Energy s Safety and Environmental Management (SEMS) program requires written facility / well operating procedures designed to enhance efficient, safe, and environmentally sound operations. The Company recognizes: a. The designs of several offshore facilities / wells may differ only in the size and / or number of equipment items present. b. Consequently, standard operating procedures may apply to multiple facilities / wells. c. Operating procedures directly address human factors issues associated with the interaction between facilities / wells and personnel. d. The human factors associated with format, content, and intended use of procedures should be considered to minimize the likelihood of procedural error CONTRACTOR S OPERATING PROCEDURES Page 3 of 6 The owners of MODU s, platform rigs and well service equipment (defined as Facilities in API RP-75) will have their own operating procedures for their facilities and associated third party equipment. Stone Energy s HSE Department will review the Contractor s SEMS and / or Safety Management (SMS) program to ensure it meets the requirements of 30CFR250 Subpart S, API RP-75 and Stone Energy s SEMS Program prior to the start of work in OCS waters. A Bridging Document and / or Bridging Agreement between Stone Energy and the Facility (Rig Contractor, Well Service Unit Provider) owner will address the acceptance of the Contractor s Operating Procedures by Stone Energy to be used at the work site. From time to time, Stone Energy will require a Third Party Contractor (TPC) to install additional equipment necessary for the well work. Stone Energy s TPC shall develop and review their Operating Procedures with the Contractor. Contractor will confirm receipt of Operator s procedures and provide feedback to Operator as necessary to ensure safe operations are conducted. The Contractor shall provide access to their operating, installation and safety policies & procedures via their electronic (internet based) data system or they shall have this information readily available onboard the facility. Contractors providing chemicals shall provide appropriate SDS information for their chemicals shipped to the work site. Additional information on chemical hazards; precautions to be taken to prevent the exposure of chemicals; and the control of hazardous chemical inventory can be found in the SSOP Chapters Hazard Communication and Hazard Control Procedures (Click Here For Link) and in the Safe Work Practices Section of the project specific Bridging Document. Quality control of the purchasing of raw materials (i.e. cement, barite, bentonite) will be conducted in accordance with API standards including but not limited to API Specification 13A - Drilling Fluid Materials ; API Specification 10A Specification for Cements and Materials for Well Cementing ; etc. Contractors/providers shall have QPs (Quality Plans) or equivalent documentation that detail the necessary quality assurance and quality control required to produce or deliver the product. Providers shall reference Standard Operating Procedures, as appropriate, which specify the objectives, scope, resources, and roles, as well as detailed steps for accomplishing the desired results. QPs or equivalent documents shall be accessible at the provider s facility and/or at the field location. Stone Energy may request these documents be submitted to the operations group for review, to assign QA witness and monitor points, or, in order to add other specific requirements as deemed necessary. Stone Energy may perform audits to verify supplier compliance with their QPs and API specifications.

4 5.1.2 COMPANY S OPERATING PROCEDURES Stone Energy will develop, maintain, provide and, when necessary, review the well execution procedures and standard operating procedures with the owners of the facility and their employees who are performing the work. The facility owner / rig contractor and Stone Energy s third party contractors involved in the well execution process will be included in the review process at the well site. The well-site review process includes planning and pre-tour meetings conducted by Stone Energy s Well-site Leader and a Supervisor / Management level member of the facility owner / rig contractor. Stone Energy s well plan, approved permits and plan revisions will be communicated and maintained aboard the facility and copies provided to the rig contractor s PIC (Person In Charge) / onsite management. Records of planning meetings, pre-tour meetings and task specific procedures developed at the job site will be maintained by Stone Energy at the work site. Well plans, approved permits, site specific work plans and Stone Energy s SEMS (SharePoint) documents will be available upon request for personnel on board per 30CFR (b) WELL EXECUTION PLAN Stone Energy s Engineering & Operations Team will develop a Well Execution Plan (also referred to as Drilling Procedure or Well Prognosis) for each project as part of the normal planning process. This plan will serve as a guide to field operations personnel performing the work. Details for the performance of the work described in the plan will be managed at the work location through continuous monitoring of the well operations and development of task specific work plans. Preparation and review of job safety / environmental analyses (JSEA) will be conducted prior to performance of the work COMPANY S STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES Stone Energy has developed procedures, referred to as Company Policy (SSOP), which it recognizes are critical to the safe operations, well integrity and protection of the environment. Stone Energy s procedures and policies will be addressed in the Bridging Document developed between Stone Energy and Rig / Well Service Unit Owner. Any deviation from Stone Energy s procedures or policies will be noted in the Bridging Document or in an MOC as per Section 4 (Management of Change) of this SEMS document. This SSOP document provides a list of Stone Energy s procedures and policies relative to well work. These procedures and policies are available for review on Stone Energy s Intranet (Click Here For Link). Quality assurance procedures and policies are noted in Section 8 (Assurance of Quality and Mechanical Integrity of Critical Equipment) of Stone Energy s SEMS plan. 5.2 CONTENT OF OPERATING PROCEDURES WELL EXECUTION PLANS The relevant information considered when developing Well Execution Plans & Procedures (developed in the office or rig site) for the execution of Stone Energy s well work is listed below.

Whenever any changes or modifications are made to safety critical policies such as: i. Well Control Policy ii. Barrier Policy e. When special or unique design or operating conditions have not been previously defined. In addition, prior to initiation of any new well project, a review of the project basis (as per Rig Operations Section 3 - Hazards Analysis, Paragraph 3.2.2) is conducted in order to ensure that the Well Execution Plan is consistent with the SSOP. Well Execution Plans will be updated when there is a significant change that warrants the application for a new permit (APD, APM, AST, etc.) or modification to an existing permit (RPD, RPM, RST, etc.). The review process will be consistent with the well s Haz ID Level as defined in Section and as per Rig Operations Section 4 - Management of Change of this SEMS document. Changes in rig operation s SSOP, policy, and / or SEMS Program will be documented in SharePoint and the associated distribution will be controlled via corporate or SharePoint notification to the current office staff personnel and to Well Site Leaders. Changes to Well Execution Plans are addressed in Rig Operations Section 4 - Management of Change and will be communicated to the appropriate personnel as defined in Section 4. Page 6 of 6
