| Permit | Form: (06) 403512943 08/31/2023 | Missing 11/2011, 12/2011. Submit Operator's Monthly Production Reports (Form 7) required for compliance with Rule 413 within 30 days. |
| OGLA | Form: (06) 403512943 09/29/2023 | Operator provided COAs:
3rd party wildlife surveys will be conducted on this well prior to rigging up for P&A activities. Should sensitive HPH conditions be identified during the screening process, Chevron will delay the work until conditions (nesting) clear and/or consult directly with CPW for guidance and discussion of potential mitigation measures that may be incorporated.
Notification will be given to any adjacent building unit occupants within a 1000 feet of the wellhead of planned P&A start date. |
| OGLA | Form: (06) 403512943 09/29/2023 | Due to proximity of plugging and abandonment (P&A) operations to BUs, operator will comply with Table 423 Maximum Permissible Noise Levels for residential land use. Prior to initiating work, operator will install temporary sound walls, straw bales, or other BMPs to dampen noise if necessary for compliance.
Operator will implement measures to capture, combust, or control emissions to protect health and safety, and to ensure that vapors and odors from well plugging operations do not constitute a nuisance or hazard to public health, welfare and the environment. Due to the proximity of residential building units (RBUs) all blowdown gasses will be controlled.
Prior to commencing operations, the operator will post signs in conspicuous locations at intersections that will remain in place throughout the duration of the plug and abandonment activities. The signs will indicate plugging and abandonment operations are being conducted, the well name, well, and the applicable contact information. Signs will be placed so as not to create a potential traffic hazard. |
| Engineer | Form: (06) 403512943 10/04/2023 | 1) Provide electronic Form 42 Notice of MIRU 2 business days ahead of operations and electronic Form 42 Notice of Plugging Operations 48 hours prior to mobilizing for plugging operations. These are two separate notifications, required by Rules 405.e and 405.l.
2) After placing plug at 2280’ assure that all fluid migration has been eliminated by monitoring the well for a minimum of 8 hours before proceeding to the next plug. If at any time after placing this plug there is evidence of pressure or of fluid migration, contact ECMC engineering before continuing operations.
3) Prior to placing cement above the base of the Upper Pierre (1400') : verify that all fluid (liquid and gas) migration has been eliminated. If evidence of fluid migration or pressure remains, contact ECMC Engineer for an update to plugging orders.
4) Pump surface casing shoe plug only after isolation has been verified. If surface casing cement is not circulated to surface, shut-in, WOC 4 hours then tag plug – must be at 549’ or shallower and provide a minimum of 10 sx plug at the surface.
5) Leave at least 100’ of cement in the wellbore for each plug without mechanical isolation.
6) Prior to cut and cap, verify isolation by either a 15 minute bubble test or 15 minute optical gas imaging recording. If there is indication of flow contact ECMC Engineering. Provide a statement on the 6SRA which method was used and what was observed. Retain records of final isolation test for 5 years.
7) With the Form 6 SRA operator must provide written documentation which positively affirms each COA listed above has been addressed.

| Engineer | Form: (06) 403512943 10/04/2023 | Consistent with Rule 911.a, a Form 27 must be approved prior to cut and cap, conducting flowline abandonment, or removing production equipment. Allow 30 days for Director review of the Form 27; include the Form 27 document number on the Form 44 for offsite flowline abandonment (if applicable) and on the Form 6 Subsequent.
Properly abandon flowlines per Rule 1105. If flowlines will be abandoned in place, include with the Form 27: pressure test results conducted in the prior 12 months as well as identification of any document numbers for a ECMC Spill/Release Report, Form 19, associated with the abandoned line.
|
| Engineer | Form: (06) 403512943 10/04/2023 | Operator shall implement measures to control venting, to protect health and safety, and to ensure that vapors and odors from well plugging operations do not constitute a nuisance or hazard to public welfare. |
| Engineer | Form: (06) 403512943 10/04/2023 | Prior to starting plugging operations a bradenhead test shall be performed if there has not been a reported bradenhead test within the 60 days immediately preceding the start of plugging operations.
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.
The Form 17 shall be submitted within 10 days of the test. Sampling shall comply with Operator Guidance - Bradenhead Testing and Reporting Instructions. If samples are collected, copies of all final laboratory analytical results shall be provided to the ECMC within three (3) months of collecting the samples.
If there is a need for sampling, contact ECMC engineering for verification of plugging procedure.

| Engineer | Form: (04) 403996341 12/06/2024 | 1) Well last produced in May 2024 and has been designated as Inactive. Within 6 months of a Well becoming Inactive action must be taken. No later than November 2024, this well was required to be:
A. Be plugged and Abandoned,
B. Return to production so that it is no longer an Inactive Well,
C. Have an approved Form 5B, Inactive Well Notice,
D. Be designated as Out of Service by submitting a Form 6A, Out of Service Designation.

| OGLA | Form: (06) 404049849 01/16/2025 | Operator committed to the following Best Management Practices under the Technical Detail/ Comments section on the Submit Tab:
3rd party wildlife surveys will be conducted on this well prior to rigging up for P&A activities.
Notification will be given to any adjacent building unit occupants within a 1000 feet of the wellhead of planned P&A start date.
Please be aware that Form 6 Approval can predate actual rig work by up to several months and that environmental conditions can change quickly over that time. Chevron’s Environmental Site Screening Process incorporates full environmental field clearances within 7 days of a scheduled well-work activity once the well is added to the active workover rig schedule. Should sensitive HPH conditions be identified during the screening process, Chevron will delay the work until conditions (nesting) clear and/or consult directly with CPW for guidance and discussion of potential mitigation measures that may be incorporated. |
| OGLA | Form: (06) 404049849 01/16/2025 | Due to close proximity to Residential Building Units (RBUs), prior to commencing operations, at a minimum, the operator will provide an informational sheet to the owners/occupants of the RBUs within 1000 feet of the wellhead. The sheet will include the operator's contact information and the nature, timing, and expected duration of the P&A operations. Operator will implement measures to capture, combust, or control emissions to protect health and safety, and to ensure that vapors, odors and noise from plugging operations do not constitute a nuisance or hazard to public health, welfare and the environment.
