Spill Description: |
During well completion operations at the Burkhardt 38N-3HZ well, an operator missed a routine volume check in a flowback tank while purging gas to a sales line, which resulted in the flowback tank overflowing produced water onto a lined secondary containment. The water supply valves were shut off and the fluid level in the tank was lowered to prevent further spillage. Approximately 17 bbls of produced water were released into lined containment. A hydro-vac truck was used to recover approximately 17 bbls of the released produced water and return it for injection. A topographic Site Location Map showing the general location of the release is attached as Figure 1. |
