Spill Description:
The existing GM 13-33 well pad is being expanded and reconstructed to accommodate the drilling of additional wells. Historical contamination was discovered during the pad reconstruction. The exact cause of the release is unknown. Due to the rig moving on location, the impacted area could not be excavated without compromising the pad's stability and the safety of the drilling personnel. The GM 13-33 well pad is located in a non-sensitive; the estimated depth to groundwater is greater than 100’. Therefore, the impacted area will be remediated when drilling and completion operation are completed. The exact location of the release has been accurately mapped to ensure remedial activities are completed in the right location as the pad has been reconfigured. 300 yards of the impacted material that was excavated on 10/3/14 will be transported to the GM 220-33 well pad (COGCC Location ID 335319) and stored inside a bermed containment pending treatment. Both well pads are located on WPX surface.
