8/16/2022 | 1. Operator will 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 will comply with Operator Guidance - Bradenhead Testing and Reporting Instructions, Appendix A: Liquid and Gas Sampling. Copies of all final laboratory analytical results will 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 will 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, flow rate information, pressure data and a discussion of the sample analysis.
Shut in bradenhead pressure shall not exceed 50 psig.

4/5/2023 | 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 COGCC within three (3) months of collecting the samples.
If there is a need for sampling, contact COGCC engineering for verification of plugging procedure.

4/5/2023 | 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 3500’ 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 COGCC engineering before continuing operations.
3) Prior to placing cement above the base of the Upper Pierre (approximately 1965’): verify that all fluid (liquid and gas) migration has been eliminated. If evidence of fluid migration or pressure remains, contact COGCC Engineer for an update to plugging orders.
4) If surface casing shoe plug is not circulated to surface, shut-in, WOC 4 hours then tag plug – must be at 989’ 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) With the Form 6 SRA operator must provide written documentation which positively affirms each COA listed above has been addressed.

4/5/2023 | 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 COGCC Spill/Release Report, Form 19, associated with the abandoned line.
