COGIS - Conditions of Approval Results

Type	Source Document	Conditions of Approval
Engineer	Form: (02) 400299806 07/13/2012	1)Provide notice of MIRU via an electronic Form 42. 2)Comply with Rule 317.i and provide cement coverage from the end of the production casing to a minimum of 200' above the Niobrara and from 200’ below Sussex to 200’ above Sussex. Verify coverage with a cement bond log.
Engineer	Form: (04) 402069356 07/08/2019	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 should measure the gas flow to get an estimate of the gas flow from the bradenhead. The abatement program may be used for six months. At the conclusion of the six months, submit a Sundry that summarizes current well condition and includes the flow rate information and pressure data.
Engineer	Form: (04) 402069356 07/08/2019	Prior to starting bradenhead abatement, 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.
Engineer	Form: (04) 402069356 07/08/2019	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.
Engineer	Form: (04) 402428928 07/28/2020	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 mitigation, 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. Operator shall implement measures to get an initial estimate of the gas flow rate and/or volume from the bradenhead. During the shut-in period record pressure data to adequately characterize the build-up. 4. This mitigation plan may be used for three consecutive months from the approved sundry date. At the conclusion of the three 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.

Drilling/Completion Operations	Form: (02 ) 400299806 7/27/2012	“Prior to drilling operations, Operator may perform an anti-collision review of existing offset wells that have the potential of being within close proximity of the proposed well. This anti-collision review may include MWD or gyro surveys and surface locations of the offset wells with included error of uncertainty per survey instrument, and compared against the proposed wellpath with its respective error of uncertainty. If current surveys do not exist for the offset wells, Operator may have gyro surveys conducted to verify bottomhole location. The proposed well may only be drilled if the anti-collision review results indicate that the risk of collision is sufficiently low as defined by the anti-collision plan, with separation factors greater than 1.5, or if the risk of collision has been mitigated through other means including shutting in wells, plugging wells, increased drilling fluid in the event of lost returns or as is appropriate for the specific situation. In the event of an increased risk of collision, that risk will be mitigated to prevent harm to people, the environment or property. For the proposed well, upon conclusion of drilling operations, an as-constructed directional survey will be submitted to COGCC with the Form 5.” At the time of permitting; the operator has identified the following well(s) as being within close proximity of the proposed well: NICHOLS 26C-5HZ: - BM LAND 16-5 - BM LAND 9-5 - B&M 42-5
Drilling/Completion Operations	Form: (02 ) 400299806 7/27/2012	Kerr McGee acknowledges and will comply with the COGCC Policy for Bradenhead Monitoring during Hydraulic Fracturing Treatments in the Greater Wattenberg Area dated May 29, 2012.
