5/18/2014 | * Share/consolidate corridors for pipeline ROWs to the maximum extent possible.
* Maximize the utility of surface facilities by developing multiple wells from a single pad (directional drilling), and by co-locating
multipurpose facilities (for example, well pads and compressors) to avoid unnecessary habitat fragmentation and disturbance
of additional geographic areas.
* Locate roads outside of drainages where possible and outside of riparian habitat.
* Minimize the number, length, and footprint of oil and gas development roads
* Use existing roads where possible
* Combine utility infrastructure (gas, electric, and water) planning with roadway planning to avoid separate utility corridors
* Combine and share roads to minimize habitat fragmentation
* Where possible, consolidate pipeline and existing roadways, or roadways that are planned for development
* Maximize the use of directional drilling to minimize habitat loss/fragmentation
* Maximize use of remote telemetry for well monitoring to minimize traffic

5/18/2014 | * Install and maintain adequate measures to exclude all types of wildlife (e.g., big game, birds, and small rodents) from all fluid
pits (e.g., fencing, netting, and other appropriate exclusion measures).

5/18/2014 | * Remove well pad and road surface materials that are incompatible with post-production land use and re-vegetation
requirements
* Use only certified weed-free native seed in seed mixes, except for non-native plants that benefit wildlife
* WPX Energy will use certified, weed free grass hay, straw, hay or other mulch materials used for the reseeding and
reclamation of disturbed areas.
* Install exclusionary devices to prevent bird and other wildlife access to equipment stacks, vents and openings.
* Reduce visits to well-sites through remote monitoring (i.e. SCADA) and the use of multi-function contractors.

5/4/2016 | * WPX will run triple-combo open hole logs from well TD up to base of surface casing on one of the first wells drilled on a multi-well pad. Remaining wells on the pad will be logged with either cased hole pulsed neutron or triple-combo open hole. Every well will also have a CBL log from well TD up through well surface. Form 5 Completion Reports will identify wells on the pad with triple-combo open hole logs. |
