0013213839 2018-01-04 Production Wells No Violations A follow up inspection was conducted on this location to check on the status of the existing compliance notice. The site has been remediated and restored properly. The compliance notice may now be closed.
0139592679 2017-05-25 Completion Testing No Violations A follow up was conducted due to a call that I received from Inspector Bill Stolarik. Bill had taken a complaint regarding a issue with noise near a residence. Upon arriving at the residence, accompanied by Inspector Dylan Pendleton, I noticed the noise was coming from this location. The caller wanted to know how long this noise would be present. After speaking with the company I was advised that they plan to be done with completions operations around June 26th. The caller was notified. Please see complaint # 5610.
0527356418 2018-04-09 Production Wells No Violations The well is equipped with 5.5-inch diameter production casing. The well is currently in the flow-back stage of production. The well is connected to a sand trap. There are ten 500-barrel tanks that are lined up next to the well that are being utilized for the flow-back operation. This well has a gas processing unit on site as well. The production area on this site contains four 400-barrel production fluid holding tanks. There is also a 500-barrel tank next to the production area. Production records within RBDMS are current to 2017.
0554675765 2017-03-07 Drill / Deepen / Reopen No Violations On location to check on the remediation of a KCl spill on the pad. There was a major rain event going on during the time of the inspection. The ditch between the southern sump and the upper sediment pond has been remediated and reclaimed. The Upper sediment pond has also been remediated and reclaimed. Both sumps are closed and have a sump pump installed and the water entering them is being pumped into a 500 bbl tank at each sump. A chloride check of the surface water around each sump was done. The Southern sump (where the problems was originally discovered) had chlorides of 158 ppm and the northern sump had chlorides of 77 ppm.
1279695785 2018-08-15 Production Wells No Violations On the day of my inspection I witnessed that the well was currently in flowback operations with a sand trap, and a choke manifold and ten 500-barrel portable fluid storage tank hooked up to flowback equipment. Annular pressure monitoring was in place on both the 9.625-inch diameter casing gauge read 1245 pounds per square inch, the 13.375-inch diameter casing gauge read 400 pounds per square inch. Production equipment included an individual Gas Processing unit with 2 additional sand traps, and 4- 400-barrel production fluid tanks shared with the other producing wells on the pad. The well pad and all equipment were within earthen containment with secondary containment around the production tanks. There was also an additional 500-barrel portable fluid storage tank on location that was not hooked up to any other equipment and did not have secondary containment around it. There were multiple Emergency Shutoff Devices on location, Identification tag were present, and production was current.
1471433954 2017-02-28 Drill / Deepen / Reopen No Violations On location to check on the clean-up of a KCl spill. The sediment ponds had some of the contaminated soil removed by surper sucker but they were unable to suck it out from with in the cattails. They will remove the cattails and contaminated soil starting 2/2/2017. The sediment ponds will be remediated and reclaimed to original grade. OEPA has stated that the sediment ponds are NOT wetlands by their definition and can be remediated and reclaimed. The removal of the pads is nearly complete but there are now many more holes in the contailment. A soil survey will be done when the containment is removed. This will hopefully pinpoint the area of the original KCl spill so that it can be remediated.
1478780615 2016-11-09 Casing String Witnessed No Violations On location to witness the cementing of the 20 casing. Patterson Rig 349 ran 20 casing to 445 with all the required float equipment. O-Tex Pumping cemented it with 745 sacks of Class H cement. Good cement was returned to the surface. See the casing ticket for the details.
1487850123 2017-02-22 Drill / Deepen / Reopen Violations Noted One location to meet with Denny Furmanek, Rice Energy Environmental person about a spill of Potassium Chloride (KCl) water of unknown volume. The drilling rig has moved off the location and workers are removing the large interlocking plastic pads that sit on the containment. The KCl water came out from under the containment and got into a sump on the SW side of the pad and migrated to the sediment ponds also on the W side of the pad. Maximum chlorides found were 1200 ppm in the upper sediment pond 415 ppm in the lower pond. From the ponds it went into a farmers pasture in a tri-angular pattern 75 wide at the top and 215 to the point. The contamination is approximately 2 deep in the soil. The sediment ponds have been emptied and both sumps have been closed. The area where the KCl water is coming out from under the containment has not yet been remediated due to the fact that there is a rain event coming and the workers have not yet completed removing the contaiment (3-4 days out) and more contaminated water could come out from under the containment during the rain event. They are not yet certain of the source of the KCl water or how it got thru the containment. Once the larege interlocking pads are removed an accessment can be made. Workers will remove a fence to access the farmers field and fence off the contaminated area so that it can be remediated along with the sediment ponds. A spring some 300 W from the pad has not been affected. No more KCl should get off the pad or out of the sediment ponds.
1489664469 2017-03-15 Drill / Deepen / Reopen No Violations On location to check on the remediation of the KCl spill and the reclamation of the lower sediment pond. The lower sediment pond has been reclaimed and a dozer was dressing up the subsoil in preparation to cover it with top soil. The area is supposed to be hydro seeded when the prep is done. The sumps are still closed and all fluids within them are being pumped into the 500 bbls tanks at each sump. The weather during the inspection was clear and very cold with a 15-20 knot wind. Temperature was 19 degrees F.
1490204536 2017-03-22 Drill / Deepen / Reopen No Violations On location to check on the reclamation of the two sediment ponds to the W side of the pad. Both ponds have been reclaimed and put back to original grade. The reclaimed area has been hydro-deeded. Both sumps are still closed and all fliud within them is being pumped into the 500 bbl tank at each sump. There was no surface water on the location at the time of the inspection so no water tests were conducted.
1498571725 2017-06-26 Completion Testing No Violations A follow up inspection was conducted due to complaint # 5610. The operator is still in the completion phase of the well bore and currently anticipates the completion phase to be finished within the next week. The complainant, Miss Ellin Andreson, has been notified via voice message left on 06/27/2017.
1537985205 2018-09-26 Preliminary Restoration No Violations Preliminary restoration found the well site meets ORC 1509.072 with vegetation established and erosion control in place within the effected areas of the well site boundary. The lease road and well pad are stone surface construction and in good repair. There is 5 wells on the pad that are now in production selling off the production casing with no mechanical or artificial lift technologies present. The sales line pressure at the production tree is 1,153 pounds pressure. There is annular pressure monitoring present with 45 pounds pressure on the 13.375 diameter casing well head section and 122 pounds pressure on the 9.625 diameter well head section. The production fluid facility consists of 4 steel tanks capable of holding 400 barrels fluid volume each, the tanks are situated inside a polymer lined steel containment dike area. Also present on location is 10 temporary 500 barrel steel tanks that are situated inside a polymer liner, the tanks are empty and not currently in service. Well identification is present along with hazard warning and emergency shut down devices at all critical points on the well pad. There is a previous violation #1487850123 issued on 02/22/2017 that I am referring to my supervisors for closure.
1659516157 2017-03-02 Drill / Deepen / Reopen No Violations On location to observe remediation of the ditch between the southern sump and the upper sediment pond. The ditch showed elevated Cl- reading to just below the matting in the ditch. The matting was removed from the ditch and put in a dump trailer for removal. The closed sumps were pumped out. A very major rain event (on 03/01/17) has been friendly to the spill and diluted it in a major way. The containment is being removed from the pad. A survey of the pad will being conducted once the containment in completely removed.
