2) Set surface casing per Rule 317d, cement to surface. Setting surface casing less than the approved depth is a permit violation unless prior written approval is obtained from the COGCC.
3) If completed, provide cement coverage from TD to a minimum of 200' above Niobrara. 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.
5) If dry hole, 40 sks cement 50’ above Niobrara top, 50 sks cement ½ out, ½ in surface casing, 10 sks cement top of surface casing, cut 4’ below GL, weld on plate, 5 sks cement in rat hole & 5 sks cement in mouse hole. Restore surface location.

| Engineer | Form: (04) 402246824 12/26/2019 | 1. Operator shall implement measures to control venting, to protect health and safety, and to ensure that vapors and odors from well operations do not constitute a nuisance or hazard to public welfare.
2. Prior to starting Bradenhead abatement, if a sample has not been collected within the last twelve months collect Bradenhead and production gas samples for laboratory analysis. Sampling shall comply with Operator Guidance - Bradenhead Testing and Reporting Instructions, Appendix A: Liquid and Gas Sampling. Copies of all final laboratory analytical results shall be provided to the COGCC within three months of collecting the samples.
3. Bradenhead gas is not to be vented to atmosphere; any gas from the Bradenhead will be routed to an enclosed tank and/or combustor. Operator shall implement measures to get an initial estimate of the gas flow rate and/or volume from the Bradenhead. The abatement program may be used for six consecutive months.
4. Operator will submit a Form 42 (“OTHER”) stating that “Bradenhead abatement program has started.”
5. At the conclusion of the six months, conduct a new Bradenhead test and submit the Form 17 within ten days of the test and submit a Form 4 Sundry that summarizes current well condition. The sundry should include details of the future plans and the flow rate information and pressure data.

| Engineer | Form: (04) 402246824 12/26/2019 | Shut in Bradenhead pressure shall not exceed 50 psig. |
| Engineer | Form: (04) 402536284 12/08/2020 | This well may be returned to annual testing. If at any point in the future well conditions meet thresholds defined by Order 1-232 a new bradenhead mitigation sundry must be filed. |
| Engineer | Form: (04) 402494135 12/17/2020 | 1) This approval is good for one year and a new application must be made before 10/7/20. Updates for the planned utilization of the well should be included with the application.

| Engineer | Form: (04) 403097790 07/20/2022 | This well is designated inactive and must be properly returned to production, plugged and abandoned, have an approved Form 5B or be submitted on a Form 6A (to be designated as Out of Service) no later than no later than November 1, 2022. |
| Engineer | Form: (06) 404290231 07/23/2025 | 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. |
| Engineer | Form: (06) 404290231 07/23/2025 | 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) 404290231 07/23/2025 | 1) Provide 2 business day notice of plugging MIRU via electronic Form 42, and provide 48 hours Notice of Plugging Operations, prior to mobilizing for plugging operations via electronic Form 42. These are 2 separate notifications, required by Rules 405.e and 405.I.
2) Prior to placing the 546’ plug: verify that all fluid migration (liquid and gas) has been eliminated. If evidence of fluid migration or pressure remains, contact ECMC Engineer for an update to plugging orders.
3) After isolation has been verified, pump surface casing shoe plug. If cement is not circulated to surface, shut-in, WOC 4 hours then tag plug – must be at 396’ or shallower and provide 10 sx plug at the surface.
4) Leave at least 100’ of cement in the wellbore for each plug without mechanical isolation.
5) After surface plug and prior to 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.
6) With the Form 6 SRA operator must provide written documentation which positively affirms each COA listed above has been addressed. |
