Spill Description:
During a routine inspection of the location, a production technician discovered a small hole in the base of the condensate tank leaking fluid into the earthen secondary containment structure. The technicial immediately plugged the hole and successfully stopped the leak. Vac trucks were dispatched immediately to recover standing liquids from the containment structure and to empty the remaining contents of the tank. It is estimated that a total of ~20 bbls of fluid was released, and approximately 3 bbls were recovered. The fluid consisted of a 50:50 mix of produced water and condensate. No fluids left the containment structure. The defective tank will be eliminated as well as one remaining produced water tanks. The containment structure will be reduced to accommodate the single remaining produced water tank. All contaminated soils are being taken to an off-site commercial facility for disposal. The root cause of the tank failure is internal corrosion.
