Spill Description:
D&B water contractors arrived on O29 at approx 8:00 am on 1-30-19 to align valves for field pumping operations. After all valves were opened they went to the F01 pad and hooked up pump. One operator stayed on F01 and the other went back to the O29 SWD. Once there he radioed to start pumping. After confirming flow and performing a visual inspection he confirmed there were no leaks at this time and proceeded with pumping operations. When finished with F01 they moved to the E33 and proceeded pumping. Approx. 5 minutes into pumping the E33 they recieved a call to shut down pumping operations and return to the O29. At approx. 11:30 am a water truck driver arrived at the O29 to unload and discovered a leak on one of the filter pods and called pump crew for shut down. Upon arrival they shut all valves, drained filter pods and discovered a gasket had blown out of one of the pods. At this point the truck driver and crew started vacuming up the spill. 4 bbls recovered.
