===CD-5=== In the fourth quarter of 2015, oil production from a new "CD-5" drill on-pad site began, located to access both the Nanuq [[Kuparuk River Oil Field|Kuparuk]] and the Alpine participating areas.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2016 |title=Resource Development |url=https://www.asrc.com/operations/resource-development/ |access-date=February 6, 2023 |website=www.asrc.com}}</ref> It is part of the Colville River Unit, operated by ConocoPhillips Alaska, Inc. (78%) and a subsidiary of [[Anadarko Petroleum Corporation]] (22%). The CD-5 site became the first commercial oil development on Alaska Native lands within the boundaries of the [[ National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska]] on land owned by "Kuukpik Corporation", the village corporation for [[Nuiqsut]], with subsurface rights owned by [[Arctic Slope Regional Corporation]]. The CD-5 project has 33 wells, includes a 6 mile road, four bridges, 32 miles of pipelines and electrical infrastructure and cost more than $1 billion. Oil from CD-5 is processed in Alpine, then flows through [[Kuparuk River Oil Field|Kuparuk]] to the [[Trans-Alaska Pipeline System]].<ref name="conoco">{{Cite web |date=2016 |title=ConocoPhillips Alaska to Add Wells to CD5 Drill Site |url=https://static.conocophillips.com/files/resources/nr-ak-cd5-expansion-apr-2016final.pdf |website=Conoco Phillips Alaska}}</ref> Alpine field production gradually increased,{{when|date=February 2023}} averaging 54,720 barrels per day in February, up from 53,007 barrels per day in January and 50,389 barrels per day year over year, from February 2021.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.frontiersman.com/news/new-oil-projects-on-slope-begin-to-lift-production/article_11dfdeda-9ea5-11ec-8eb9-bb8f1d38945b.html|title = New oil projects on slope begin to lift production| date=March 7, 2022 }}</ref>{{better source|date=March 2023}} In 2016, ConocoPhillips planned more wells.<ref>{{Cite news |title=More wells planned for CD5 drill site in NPR-A |work=Oil and Gas Journal |url=https://www.ogj.com/drilling-production/article/17251104/more-wells-planned-for-cd5-drill-site-in-npra |access-date=February 6, 2023}}</ref>
