1887903	Primary Facility	2010-05-27	Drilling/Alteration	No Violations Noted	Ziegenfuss drilling conductor. Setting 20" to rock and then move UDI rig 48 on well. Reserve pit showed some areas in base and sidewalls where there are pressure points from rocks below liner. DEP recommended pulling the liner back and placing sand to smooth out subbase of pit, and then re-line pit before drilling starts with downhole rig.

Pete Chacon of NFX on site. Inspected reserve pit. Observed some areas in base and sidewalls where there were pressure points from rocks below liner. I recommended pulling the liner back and smooting out base, and then re-lining pit prior to start of drilling to prevent any tears in liner. Operator indicated they would address the pit and correct the issue.

On 9/18 performed perforations #5 and #6 AT DEPTHS 2298' and 2224', respectively. Could not establish injection rate. On 9/19 started milling 7" casing. At time of this inspection have @ 5' milled out. Plan to mill out 15 - 20' of 7" casing. Using 8.5" mill - hole is 8.75" in diameter. At this point no change in bubbling. After milling - may swab hole and perform shut in on 7" to see inf any pressure buildup. Discussed jet washing formations. No violations observed.

Then go in hole and tag TOC, swab hole clean, and fill remaining portion of 7" to surface with pea gravel. Will weld cap with permit number on well. The cellar will be filled in to base of the 9 5/8" casing top with fravel. Cellar will remain open and will continue to monitor condition of bubbling for next several weeks.
