Well Inspection Data

INSPECTION ID DATE DESCRIPTION COMMENT VIOLATION ID
2080455 2012-06-20 No Violations Noted
2125879 2012-11-26 No Violations Noted The operator was beginning to disassemble Precision Rig #531 and move everything off site. The Genset tank was moved from containment to the southeastern corner of the pad in an area that did not have containment. The Genset tank has an 8,500 capacity and was noted to have 4,000 gallons at the time of the release. The tank was then going to be emptied in preparation of the move. Maximum Fuel Company arrived onsite to remove the fuel from the tank. The driver hooked his equipment up to the top of the tank but forgot to open the vent line. The truck’s hose pressured up and the quick release ball valve blew apart from the manifold releasing 10-15 gallons of diesel fuel to the surface of the pad. Cabot employees determined that the fluid that was released was from what was in the hose at the time of the disconnection. GDS was on site to begin excavation at 3:30PM. The excavation measured 25’X12’X1”. Resource collected samples. Violations attached to permit #42-115-20856

The Department was on site at the Rag Apple LLC well site to conduct an Incident Inspection in response to a self-reported release. The Department met with Brody Webster (Environmental, Health & Safety Specialist- Cabot Oil & Gas). Mr. Webster explained that on 12/24/12 a GDS employee was fueling a heater that was situated on containment. The tanks overflowed onto containment then onto the well pad. It was originally estimated that 10 gallons of off road diesel were lost however a new estimate of 25 gallons was given at the time of the inspection.

During the inspection the well site was covered with snow. The size of the excavation was unable to be determined at that time. It was reported that Resource Environmental sampled the area on 12/26/12 and that Cabot has received the results. The Department requests that the operator submit copies of the sample results within 3 business days of receiving this report.
