Western North Slope Overview

The Western North Slope includes the Bear Tooth Unit (as highlighted above), the Colville River Unit and the Greater Mooses Tooth Unit. These units also leverage shared regional infrastructure, which underpins base operations and facilitates continued development across the Western North Slope. In 2025, we operated one part-time drilling rig in the Colville River Unit. The Colville River Unit includes the Alpine Field and four satellite fields. Field installations include one central production facility, which separates oil, natural gas and water.
