| During completions activities on the Monument Ridge pad, a hose was improperly connected to the blender unit by the cam-lock fittings. When the equipment was turned on, produced water was released from around the blender unit and hose fitting. Two (2) barrels of produced water was captured within the secondary containment, as well as 1 bbl sprayed out onto the pad. Within minutes the spill was noticed and the equipment shut off and the hose properly connected. Vac trucks staged on location during all completions activities were used to recover all of the released produced water within the secondary containment and on the pad. Based on the spill investigation, it was observed that crews recovered 100% of the fluids, as well as removing the upper 2”-4” of the soil. No staining or signs of impact were noticed. |
