09/24/2016 | Flaring of natural gas shall comply with COGCC Rule 912. Operator is required to obtain and maintain any required air permits from CDPHE. Notify the local emergency dispatch or the local governmental designee of natural gas flaring.
Bradenhead gas is not to be vented to atmosphere; any gas from the Bradenhead will be routed to an enclosed tank and/or combustor. Gas from bradenhead shall be measured and flaring volumes reported on Form 7. The abatement program may only be used for one year from date of this approved Sundry.
Prior to starting bradenhead blowdown abatement:
1) Bradenhead test shall be performed and Form 17 submitted.
2) Collect bradenhead and production gas samples for laboratory analysis.
The gas analysis shall be for composition and stable carbon isotopes. The compositional analysis at a minimum shall include Hydrogen, Argon, Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, Nitrogen, Methane, Ethene, Ethane, Propene, Propane, Isobutane, Butane, Isopentane, Pentane, Hexanes +, Specific Gravity and British Thermal Units (BTU). Stable carbon isotope analysis shall include delta DC1, delta 13C1, delta 13C2, delta 13C3, delta 13IC4, delta 13NC4, delta 13IC5 (if possible), delta 13NC5 (if possible), delta 13C6+ (if possible) and stable isotopes of CO2 if possible.
If liquid is encountered in the bradenhead then collect samples, analysis of the liquid samples shall be conducted to provide an evaluation of the liquid source. Submit for the laboratory analysis of major anions (chloride, carbonate, bicarbonate, and sulfate), cations (sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium) total dissolved solids (TDS), BTEX, DRO, GRO and dissolved gasses (RSK 175). If there is a limited amount of water available then anions, cations and BTEX should be given first priority.
Copies of all final laboratory analytical results shall be provided to the COGCC within three months of collecting the samples in an approved electronic data deliverable format.

07/06/2017 | 1) Prior to starting repair work, a bradenhead test shall be performed and samples collected. The Form 17 shall be submitted within 10 days of the test. The Operator will collect bradenhead and production gas samples for laboratory analysis. The gas analysis shall be for composition and stable carbon isotopes. The compositional analysis at a minimum shall include Hydrogen, Argon, Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, Nitrogen, Methane, Ethene, Ethane, Propene, Propane, Isobutane, Butane, Isopentane, Pentane, Hexanes +, Specific Gravity and British Thermal Units (BTU). Stable carbon isotope analysis shall include delta DC1, delta 13C1, delta 13C2, delta 13C3, delta 13IC4, delta 13NC4, delta 13IC5 (if possible), delta 13NC5 (if possible), delta 13C6+ (if possible) and stable isotopes of CO2 if possible. If liquid is encountered in the bradenhead then collect samples, analysis of the liquid samples shall be conducted to provide an evaluation of the liquid source. Submit for the laboratory analysis of major anions (chloride, carbonate, bicarbonate, and sulfate), cations (sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium) total dissolved solids (TDS), BTEX, DRO, GRO and dissolved gasses (RSK 175). If there is a limited amount of water available then anions, cations and BTEX should be given first priority. If sufficient condensate is present to collect a sample then it should be submitted for whole oil by GC analysis or equivalent. The analysis should include the bio-markers Phytane and Pristane. Copies of all final laboratory analytical results shall be provided to the COGCC within three months of collecting the samples in an approved electronic data deliverable format.
2) After completing well repair work a Bradenhead Test shall be performed within the next 60 days and the Form 17 submitted within 10 days of the test. If pressure remains on the Bradenhead or any liquids were present during the test additional well work may be required.
3) The additional cement referenced shall be placed as indicated. The placed cement shall be verified with a CBL and documented with a Form 5. Submit all logs run during remediation work with the Form 5. |

01/22/2018 | Prior to starting plugging operations a bradenhead test shall be performed.
1) If, before opening the bradenhead valve, the beginning pressure is greater than 25 psi, sampling is required.
2) If pressure remains at the conclusion of the test, or if any liquids were present during the test, sampling is required.
Sampling shall comply with Operator Guidance - Bradenhead Testing and Reporting Instructions. The Form 17 shall be submitted within 10 days of the test. If samples are collected, copies of all final laboratory analytical results shall be provided to the COGCC within three (3) months of collecting the samples. |

01/22/2018 | 1) Provide 48 hour notice of plugging MIRU via electronic Form 42.
2) Properly abandon all flowlines as per Rule 1103. File electronic Form 42 once abandonment complete.
3) Operator shall implement measures to control unnecessary and excessive venting, to protect the health and safety of the public, and to ensure that vapors and odors from well plugging operations do not constitute a nuisance or hazard to public welfare.
4) Submit all logs run during plugging operations with From 6 subsequent.
5) After pumping squeeze, shut down and wait on cement (and/or resin) at minimum 8 hours; verify gas migration has been eliminated. If evidence of gas migration or pressure remains contact COGCC Engineer for an update to plugging orders. Leave at least 100’ of cement in the wellbore for each plug. |

12/21/2020 | 1) Provide 48-hour notice of plugging MIRU via electronic Form 42.
2) The plug at 1850’ needs to be placed and have an 8-hour WOC to assure that all fluid migration has been stopped. If that doesn’t isolate the flow, additional attempts in front of the surface shoe plug will need to be attempted. Other downhole potential squeeze opportunities may need to be looked at before the 1135’ plug.
3) Prior to placing the 1135’ plug: verify that all fluid migration (liquid or gas) has been eliminated. If evidence of fluid migration or pressure remains, contact COGCC Engineer for an update to plugging orders.
4) After isolation has been verified, pump plug and displace. If cement is not circulated to surface, shut-in, WOC 4 hours then tag plug – must be at 769’ or shallower and provide at least 10 sx plug at the surface.
5) Leave at least 100’ of cement in the wellbore for each plug.
6) With the Form 6 SRA operator must provide written documentation which positively affirms each COA has been addressed. |
