06/22/2022 | 1) When the well is, or wells are, readied for safety SI/TA, document test pressure, test duration, and the depth of the isolating device in the casing of the SI/TA well. A charted or COGCC-witnessed test is not necessary, unless Item #2 applies (see below).
2) If a well has been SI prior to being readied for safety SI/TA and the resulting time before returning to production will be greater than 2 years, perform a charted or COGCC-witnessed MIT and submit the appropriate Form 21 (10-day Form 42 notification required).
3) If a well will be TA for a period greater than 6 months (removal of surface equipment or setting a downhole plug to render the well incapable of production), file a Sundry Notice, Form 4 with all details required by Rule 319.b. Document that there was a pressure test in lieu of a formal MIT prior to temporarily abandoning the well; include statements regarding future plans for the well and how the well is shut to the atmosphere. If the well will be TA with downhole plugs for longer than 60 days, a Completed Interval Report, Form 5A must be filed so that the Operator’s Monthly Report of Operations, Form 7 is consistent with the correct wellbore configuration.
4) Install signage on the SI/TA wellhead indicating the reason for equipment removal |
