Spill Description:
Pumper discovered that a produced water tank had overflowed over the weekend (October 28-29, 2017) which resulted in the release of an estimated 10 bbls of produced water inside an earthen secondary containment structure. The overflow was caused by an alarm failure which would have alerted operators to high fluid levels within the tank. The alarm failure is also attributed to a recent "network patch" which erased the alarm settings. Production personnel are reconfiguring the alarm settings to ensure that the alarm system is working properly. The fluids were contained within the secondary containment structure and were recovered using vac trucks. Initial field screenings indicate that the soils contain elevated levels of TPH and will require remediation. Maintenance personnel are excavating contaminated soils which will be temporarily land-farmed on site. Once completed, soil samples will be collected to confirm that COGCC cleanup standards have been met.
