| Spill Description: |
| On August 23, 2019 at approximately 13:00, a Production Foreman reported to Caerus that he had found a tank on the 17F that was leaking into secondary containment due to corrosion. It was reported that there were multiple pin hole leaks in the side of the tank, with the largest being roughly the circumference of a human finger. He estimated that 20 bbls of produced water had been lost into the lined containment at that time. A water truck was dispatched remove the remaining fluid from the tank and recover as much as possible from secondary containment. At the time of the report there were still 7'4" of fluid inside the tank. There is no automation on the tank in question. By the time the water truck arrived another 6 BBLS had been lost to the secondary containment. 13 BBLs were recovered from the secondary containment by the water truck. |
