Increase cement coverage accordingly and cement to surface. 2) Provide 24 hour notice of MIRU to Jim Precup at 303-469-1902 or e-mail at james.precup@state.co.us 3) Comply with Rule 317.i and provide cement coverage from TD to a minimum of 200' above Niobrara and from 200’ below Shannon to 200’ above Sussex. Verify coverage with cement bond log. 4) Comply with Rule 321. Run and submit Directional Survey from TD to base of surface casing. Ensure that the wellbore complies with setback requirements in commission orders or rules prior to producing the well. |

| Engineer | Form: (06) 401399533 11/21/2017 | 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.
3) If sampling is required contact COGCC engineering for an confirmation of plugging requirements prior to placing any plugs.
Sampling shall comply with Operator Guidance - Bradenhead Testing and Reporting Instructions. The Form 17 shall be submitted within 10 days of the test.

| Engineer | Form: (06) 401399533 11/21/2017 | 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.
|
| Engineer | Form: (06) 401399533 11/21/2017 | 1) Provide 48 hour notice of plugging MIRU via electronic Form 42.
2) The plug at 1800’ 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 1190’ plug.
3) Prior to placing the 1190’ 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 1033’ or shallower and provide 10 sx plug at the surface. Leave at least 100’ of cement in the casing for each plug.
5) Properly abandon flowlines as per Rule 1103. File electronic Form 42 once abandonment is complete.

| Engineer | Form: (06) 402194134 10/25/2019 | Plugging
1) Provide 48 hour notice of plugging MIRU via electronic Form 42.
2) Properly abandon flowlines as per Rule 1105. File electronic Form 42 once abandonment complete. Within 30 days of an operator completing abandonment requirements for an off-location flowline or crude oil transfer line the operator must submit a Flowline Report, Form 44.
3) Plugs and squeezes will be placed as stated in the Plugging Procedure section of the approved NOIA unless revised by COA or prior approval from COGCC is obtained.
4) The wellbore must be static prior to placing cement plugs which are to be a minimum of 100' in length for all but surface plugs. Mechanical isolation requires a 25' cement plug, minimum.
5) Place a 50' plug (minimum) at the surface, both inside the inner most casing and in all annular spaces. Confirm cement to surface in all strings during cut and cap.
6) With the Form 6 SRA operator must provide written documentation which positively affirms each COA has been addressed.
7) Contact area inspector prior to commencing plugging operations.
8) Reenter well and drill out to stub plug and tag. Circulate hole clean and shut well in for 8 hrs to verify no flow or pressure. Notify COGCC Area Engineer if pressure or flow is encountered at any time during reentry to confirm plugging procedure prior to proceeding.
