1739248776 | 2017-09-21 | Plug / Plug Back | No Violations | I inspected this well location as a follow-up to my inspection yesterday (09/20/17). At the time of the previous inspection, I along with ODNR NE Region Supervisor Tom Hill had met with plugging crews at the site of the recently plugged and abandoned well. We observed that there was a small but visible leakage of gas from inside the open surface casing annulus, which was otherwise filled with water. We had recommended that the crew mix and top load additional cement to seal the leak. At the time of this inspection, I observed a small amount of effluent gas in the open casing. I contacted the plugging crew and advised that they make an additional attempt to seal the leak with cement and we agreed that I would re-visit the site once that effort had been implemented. |
