COGIS - Conditions of Approval Results

Type	Source Document	Conditions of Approval
Permit	Form: (02) 400272726 07/17/2012	Operator must meet Water Well Testing requirements as per amended Rule 318Ae(4)
Permit	Form: (02) 400272726 07/17/2012	Operator must comply with COGCC Policy for Bradenhead Monitoring During Hydraulic Fracturing Treatments in the Greater Wattenberg Area dated May 29, 2012.
Engineer	Form: (02) 400272726 07/30/2012	1)Note surface casing setting depth change from 850’ to 910’. Increase cement coverage accordingly and cement to surface. 2)Provide notice of MIRU via an electronic Form 42. 3)Comply with Rule 317.i and provide cement coverage from the end of the production casing to a minimum of 200' above the Niobrara. Verify coverage with a cement bond log.
Engineer	Form: (06) 402011996 04/23/2019	If there has not been a reported Bradenhead test within 60 days of plugging this well, 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 a 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) 402011996 04/23/2019	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) 402011996 04/23/2019	1) Provide 48 hour notice of plugging MIRU via electronic Form 42. 2) Prior to placing the 1202’ 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. 3) 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 952’ or shallower and provide 10 sx plug at the surface. 4) Leave at least 100’ of cement in the wellbore for each plug. 5) Properly abandon flowlines per Rule 1105. File electronic Form 42 once abandonment is 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.

COGIS - Best Management Practice Results

BMP Type	Source Document	Best Management Practices
General Housekeeping	Form: (02 ) 400272726 8/22/2012	General housekeeping will consist of neat and orderly storage of materials and fluids. Wastes will be temporarily stored in sealed containers and regularly collected and disposed of at offsite, suitable facilities. If spills occur, prompt cleanup is required to minimize any commingling of waste materials with stormwater runoff. Routine maintenance will be limited to fueling and lubrication of equipment. Drip pans will be used during routine fueling and maintenance to contain spills or leaks. Any waste product from maintenance will be containerized and transported offsite for disposal or recycling. There will be no major equipment overhauls conducted onsite. Equipment will be transported offsite for major overhauls. Cleanup of trash and discarded materials will be conducted at the end of each work day. Cleanup will consist of patrolling the roadway, access areas, and other work areas to pick up trash, scrap debris, other discarded materials, and any contaminated soil. These materials will be disposed of properly.
Drilling/Completion Operations	Form: (02 ) 400272726 8/22/2012	Anti-collision: Prior to drilling operations, Operator will perform an anti-collision scan of existing offset wells that have the potential of being within close proximity of the proposed well. This anti-collision scan will include definitive MWD or gyro surveys 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 will only be drilled if the anti-collision scan results indicate that there is not a risk for collision, or harm to people or the environment. For the proposed well, upon conclusion of drilling operations, an as-constructed gyro survey will be submitted to COGCC with the Form 5. During and Post stimulation: Noble Energy Inc. will comply with the COGCC Policy for Bradenhead Monitoring During Hydraulic Fracturing Treatments in the Greater Wattenberg Area dated 5/29/12.
Material Handling and Spill Prevention	Form: (02 ) 400272726 8/22/2012	Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures (SPCC) plans are in place to address any possible spill associated with Oil & Gas operations throughout the state of Colorado in accordance with CFR 112.
Storm Water/Erosion Control	Form: (02 ) 400272726 8/22/2012	Stormwater management plans (SWMP) are in place to address construction, drilling and operations associated with Oil & Gas development throughout the state of Colorado in accordance with Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) and General Permit No. COR-038637. BMP’s will be constructed around the perimeter of the site prior to, or at the beginning of construction. BMP’s used will vary according to the location and will remain in place until the pad reaches final reclamation.
