Spill Description: |
While conducting flow back operations, crews were performing maintenance which required the manual operation of the water dump. During the maintenance activity, the separator was over filled and sent fluid to the combustor. This resulted in 13.5 barrels of oil overflowing onto the ground and 6 barrels being contained inside the combustor. Vacuum trucks are on location and have recovered the liquid, and transported to disposal. The wells on location are currently shut in to facilitate during the spill remediation and repair to the combustor. |
