COGIS - Conditions of Approval Results

Type	Source Document	Conditions of Approval
Engineer	Form: (02 ) 401271866 6/16/2017	Bradenhead tests shall be performed according to the following schedule and the Form 17 submitted within 10 days of each test: 1) Within 60 days of rig release and prior to stimulation and 2) If a delayed completion, 6 months after rig release and prior to stimulation. 3) Within 30 days after first production, as reported on Form 5A.
Engineer	Form: (02 ) 401271866 6/16/2017	1) Submit Form 42 electronically to COGCC 48 hours prior to MIRU (spud notice) for the first well activity with a rig on the pad and provide 48 hour spud notice via Form 42 for all subsequent wells drilled on the pad. 2) Comply with Rule 317.j. and provide cement coverage from TD to a minimum of 200' above Niobrara. Verify coverage with cement bond log.
Engineer	Form: (02 ) 401271866 6/16/2017	Operator acknowledges the proximity of the listed non-operated wells. Operator assures that this offset list will be remediated per the DJ Basin Horizontal Offset Policy (option 3). Operator will submit a Form 42 (“OFFSET MITIGATION COMPLETED”) stating what appropriate mitigation occurred and that it has been completed, prior to the hydraulic stimulation of this well. 05-123-07254, UPRR 52 PAN AM 1 05-123-11393, EAST HUDSON A/HUBBS 1-8
Engineer	Form: (06 ) 403428777 6/20/2023	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.
Engineer	Form: (06 ) 403428777 6/20/2023	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) Prior to placing cement above the base of the Upper Pierre (approximately 2069’) : 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. 3) Pump surface casing shoe plug only after isolation has been verified. Circulate cement to surface if surface casing is not pulled. 4) Leave at least 100’ of cement in the wellbore for each plug without mechanical isolation. 5) With the Form 6 SRA operator must provide written documentation which positively affirms each COA listed above has been addressed.
Engineer	Form: (06 ) 403428777 6/20/2023	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.

COGIS - Best Management Practice Results

BMP Type	Source Document	Best Management Practices
Material Handling and Spill Prevention	Form: (02 ) 401271866 8/11/2017	During drilling operations, we anticipate 4-5 loads, @ 20 yards per load, of cuttings per day will be transported off-site to an approved disposal facility in accordance with Operator’s waste management plan. All loads leaving the location will have a manifest and will be documented. Water-based and Oil-based cuttings will be disposed of offsite and at a licensed, commercial disposal site.
Drilling/Completion Operations	Form: (02 ) 401271866 8/11/2017	Operator will use a closed loop system for drilling and fluid management. No pits will be dug.
Drilling/Completion Operations	Form: (02 ) 401271866 8/11/2017	Operator will perform anti-collision evaluation of all active (producing, shut-in, of temporarily abandoned) offset wellbores that have the potential of being within 150' feet of the proposed well prior to drilling operations. Notice shall be given to all offset operators prior to drilling.
Drilling/Completion Operations	Form: (02 ) 401271866 8/11/2017	Rule 604.c.I: Upon initial rig-up and at least once every thirty (30) days during drilling operations thereafter, pressure testing of the casing string and each component of the blowout prevention equipment including flange connections shall be performed to seventy percent (70%) of working pressure or seventy percent (70%) of the internal yield of casing, whichever is less. Pressure testing shall be conducted and the documented results shall be retained by the operator for inspection by the Director for a period of one (1) year. Activation of the pipe rams for function testing shall be conducted on a daily basis when practicable.
Drilling/Completion Operations	Form: (02 ) 401271866 8/11/2017	Operator will comply with COGCC policy on bradenhead monitoring during Hydraulic Fracturing Treatment in the Greater Wattenberg Area per policy dated May 29. 2012.
Drilling/Completion Operations	Form: (02 ) 401271866 8/11/2017	One of the first wells drilled on the pad will be logged with open-hole Resistivity Log and Gamma Ray Log from the kick-off point into the surface casing. All wells on the pad will have a cement bond log with gamma ray run on production casing (or on intermediate casing if production liner is run) into the surface casing. The horizontal portion of every well will be logged with a measured-while-drilling gamma ray log. The Form 5, Completion Report, for each well on the pad will list all logs run and have those logs attached. The Form 5 for a well without open-hole logs shall clearly state “No open-hole logs were run” and shall clearly identify (by API#, well name & number) the well in which open hole logs were run.
