| Engineer | Form: (04) 403677520 02/13/2024 | 1) Operator shall comply with COGCC Rule 419. Bradenhead Monitoring, Testing, and Reporting and Rule 420. Form 17, Bradenhead Test Report or other Director approved submittal method.
2) Comply with any CDPHE, Air Pollution Control Division rules or requirements for all atmospheric discharges.
3) Any liquids blown down are to be collected, stored, handled, and treated or disposed as E&P waste per COGCC’s 900 series rules.
4) At least one check valve is required for annular spaces that are tied to sales line or separator. Maintain equipment for pressure regulation and check valves in good working order.
5) At least one valve is required to monitor pressure and sample flow from the bradenhead. |
| Engineer | Form: (04) 404357197 10/08/2025 | 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. Bradenhead gas is not to be vented to the atmosphere; any gas from the Bradenhead will be routed to the specified abatement system. Shut in bradenhead pressure shall not exceed threshold pressure. Operator will implement measures to get an estimate of the gas flow rate and/or volume from the bradenhead.
3. No later than one year from annual BH test date , conduct a bradenhead test, submit a Form 17, and submit a Form 4 Sundry that summarizes current well condition. The well should be shut in for seven days to monitor and collect data to characterize build up pressures prior to conducting the bradenhead test. The sundry should include details of the future plans, sample analysis interpretation, bradenhead test description, and the flow rate information and pressure data.
4. If a sample has not been collected from surface casing within the last twenty-four months collect bradenhead 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 ECMC within three months of collecting the samples.
