| Production personnel discovered a condensate tank had developed a leak since the last site visit on 10/27/17. It is estimated that approximately 60 bbls of fluid leaked into the lined, metal secondary containment structure. Production personnel stated that the fluids consisted of a 50/50 mix of produced water and condensate. Personnel used vac trucks to recover all free liquids from the containment structure. The primary cause of the leaking tank is equipment failure due to internal corrosion of the tank. The defective tank will be replaced with a new, smaller, internally-coated tank. Production personnel are also evaluating the integrity of other tanks at the facility that are approximately the same age as the tank that failed. Because all fluids were contained within the secondary containment structure and recovered, there are no off-site impacts associated with this incident, and no further remediation is required. |
