SEVENTH MONTHLY APPLICATION FOR COMPENSATION AND
REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES OF PEPPER HAMILTON LLP,
DELAWARE COUNSEL FOR THE OFFICIAL COMMITTEE OF UNSECURED
CREDITORS
Pursuant to sections 330 and 331 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the
"Bankruptcy Code"), Rule 2016 ofthe Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (collectively, the
"Bankruptcy Rules"), and the Court's "Administrative Order under U.S.c. Sections 105 (A) and
331 Establishing Procedures for Interim Compensation and Expense Reimbursement of
Professionals and Committee Members," signed on or about April 8, 2009 (the "Administrative
Order"), Pepper Hamilton LLP ("Pepper" or "Applicant"), Delaware counsel to the Official
Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the "Committee"), hereby submits it Seventh Monthly
Application for Compensation and Reimbursement of Expenses for the Period from September 1,
2009 through September 30, 2009 (the "Application").
By this Application, Pepper seeks a monthly interim allowance of compensation in
the amount of $6,087.00 and actual and necessary expenses in the amount of $357.48 for a total
allowance of $6,444.48 and payment of $4,869.60 (80% of the allowed fees) and reimbursement

#10922474 v7
September 1,2009 through September 30, 2009 (the "Interim Period"). In support of this
Application, Pepper respectfully represents as follows:
Background
1. On March 9, 2009 (the "Filing Date"), Pacific Energy Resources Ltd.,
Petrocal Acquisition Corp., Pacific Energy Alaska Holdings, LLC, Cameros Acquisition Corp.,
Pacific Energy Alaska Operating LLC, San Pedro Bay Pipeline Company, Cameros Energy, Inc.
and Gotland Oil, Inc. (collectively, the "Debtors") each filed a voluntary petition for relief
pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors have continued to manage their
businesses and properties as debtors-in-possession pursuant to Sections 1107(a) and 1108 ofthe
Bankruptcy Code.
2. On March 19,2009 (the "Committee Formation Date"), the United States
Trustee appointed the Committee to represent the unsecured creditors of the Debtors pursuant to
11 U.S.C. 1l02(a)(1).
3. Pursuant to Section 1103 of the Code, the Committee selected Pepper
Hamilton LLP to serve as Delaware counsel for the Committee. On April 14, 2009, the
Committee filed an application with this Court for approval to employ Pepper Hamilton LLP.
4. On April 29, 2009, this Court entered an Order authorizing the Committee
to employ Pepper Hamilton LLP as Delaware counsel for the Committee, effective as of March
19, 2009, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
5. On April 8, 2009, the Administrative Order Establishing Procedures for
Allowance and Payment of Interim Compensation and Reimbursement of Expenses to
Professionals was entered.
Summary of Seryices Rendered and Expenses Incurred
-2
#10922474 v7
6. Applicant has rendered services from September 1, 2009 through
September 30,2009 in the amount of25.90 hours.
7. Applicant maintains contemporaneous records of the time expended for the
professional services and expenses related thereto performed in connection with this Chapter 11
case and such records are maintained in the ordinary course of its business. These records
provide a detailed description of the services rendered and expenses incurred during the period
for which this Application is being made. A summary of Applicant's time records in the sum of
$6,087.00 is attached hereto as Exhibit B. This summary is broken down according to specific
task categories relating specifically to this Chapter 11 case. In some cases, Applicant found a
situation where the task of a professional may fit into two or more categories. In these cases,
Applicant has tried to categorize the time expended into the most appropriate category. lfthe
Court requires any further descriptions on these time entries, Applicant will provide additional
information.
8. Applicant believes that the post-petition services for the period September
1,2009 through September 30,2009 are reasonably worth the sum of $6,087.00 as set forth in the
summary identified as Exhibit B. Applicant notes that these costs are customary charges made to
other firm clients in the ordinary course of its billing practice. To assist the Court in its review of
the fees sought by Applicant, Applicant has separated its time entries in Exhibit B into the
following categories:
(a) Case Administration (Total hours: 3.70, total fees $415.00) This
category includes time spent by Applicant attending to coordination and compliance activities in
connection with the performance ofits duties as Delaware counsel for the Official Committee of
Unsecured Creditors.
-3
#10922474 v7
(b) Asset Sales/Disposition (Total hours: 1.10, total fees $456.50) This
category includes time spent by Applicant communicating with counsel re sale issues.
(c) Court Hearings (Total hours: 10.40, total fees $2,968.00) This
category includes time spent by Applicant preparingfor and attending omnibus hearing and
communications re same.
(d) Fees (Total hours: 8.90, total fees $1,919.00) This category includes
time spent by Applicant finalizing and filing 5th monthly application, drafting andfiling
certificate ofno objection re previous interim fee application, drafting of6
th
monthly fee
application and related tasks.
(e) Fee Applications - Others (Total hours: 1.80, total fees $328.50)
This category includes time spent by Applicant preparing notices, certificates ofservice and
efiling co-counsel's fee application and related documents; drafting certificate ofno objection re
previous application; and efiling affidavits ofservice re accountant's 4th monthly application.
9. The attorneys who primarily worked on this case occasionally found it
necessary to consult with other attorneys in the firm on various aspects of the case. A brief
biography of each of the primary attorneys, along with a description of their areas of expertise,
are set forth in the summary identified as Exhibit C.
10. As outlined above, the attorneys who worked on this case from September
1,2009 through September 30, 2009 have various levels of expertise. From time to time these
attorneys consulted with each other and other attorneys on different aspects of the case. It is
submitted that this is a more efficient way to run a case than to expect a single attorney to be an
expert in all applicable areas of law. If a single attorney were to attempt to run a case such as
-4
#10922474 v7
this, the attorney would have to learn through research what other attorneys know and can tell
him based on their years of knowledge and experience.
11. Applicant requires reimbursement of costs expended September 1, 2009
through September 30,2009 in the sum of$357.48 as set forth in the summary identified as
Exhibit D. Applicant notes that these costs are customary charges made to other firm clients in
the ordinary course of its billing practice.
12. In accordance with the factors enumerated in section 330 of the
Bankruptcy Code, it is respectfully submitted that the amount requested is fair and reasonable
given (a) the complexity of the case, (b) the time expended, (c) the nature and the extent ofthe
services rendered, (d) the value of such services, and (e) the costs of comparable services other
than in a case under the Bankruptcy Code. Moreover, Applicant has reviewed the requirements
of Del. Bankr. LR 2016 and the Administrative Order and believes that this Application complies
with such Rule and Order.
WHEREFORE, your Applicant respectfully requests, for the period September 1,
2009 through September 30, 2009, an interim allowance be made for compensation in the amount
of$6,087.00 and actual and necessary expenses in the amount of$357.48 for a total allowance of
$6,444.48 and payment of $4,869.60 (80% of the allowed fees) and reimbursement of $357.48
(100% ofthe allowed expenses) be authorized for a total payment of $5,227.08 for such other and

further relief as this Court may deem just and proper.
