Title: Electric motors for artificial lift installations within 1320 feet of distribution
Text: "4.1 Electrification. BP agrees that with respect to Infill Wells within the Infill Application Area requiring long-term artificial lift, it shall utilize electric motors for all artificial lift installations provided the Well Pad is within 1320 feet of distribution voltage and the ability to do so is not cost prohibitive due to the demands of property owners from whom easements are required, topography or other physical features ( e.g., the presence of a river)."
