Spill Description:
An estimated 60 bbls of oil was found inside the lined, metal secondary containment structure at the Hooker 30-02 pad on October 14, 2019. The oil was found to be leaking from one of two oil tanks inside the secondary containment structure. A small hole was discovered in the base of the leaking tank and appears to have been caused by internal corrosion. The oil was pumped from the containment and placed into a second tank inside the containment. The defective tank has been isolated and removed from service and is being replaced this week. The containment structure was flushed with 160 bbls of hot water and a soapy detergent to float and recover any residual oil inside the containment structure. The water / oil mixture was recovered and taken to TEP's Rulison water management facility. The liner and the area outside of the containment structure were closely inspected for any signs of leaking. No impacts were observed outside of the containment structure.
