Spill Description:
A TEP production technician arrived on location to find produced water leaking from a pin-hole leak at the base of one of the produced water tanks at the GM 32-27-696 well pad (COGCC 335459). The hole in the tank was caused by internal corrosion. The employee placed a temporary plug in the hole and called for a water truck to transfer the remaining water into another tank. All of the water that leaked from the tank was captured by the secondary containment structure. The water froze inside the containment and a hot water truck is being used to melt and recover all fluids from the containment structure. The recovered water will be taken to the Parachute centralized water management facility for treatment and reuse. There were no off-site or other environmental impacts associated with this incident. The compromised tank has been removed from service, and future production will be transferred to one of the other tanks on location.
