0032812657 2017-07-24 Production Wells Violations Noted The purpose of my inspection was to conduct a status check on well #6--DOGRM. The well was equipped with tubing and rods. The pumping unit was removed. No audible or visual leaks were identified. I confirmed the location of the tank battery with Owner Shawn Watson. The tank battery consisted of four (4) steel production tanks. The tanks were empty. The tanks remained in good repair. I did not observe any holes or leaks. Load out valves were closed. Hatch lids were closed. Correct and legible identification shall be posted at the well head and tank battery within 14 days in accordance with 1501:9-9-05 (A)(10). The well was incapable of production. Under 1509.62 (A)(1) the owner of a well that has no reported production for two consecutive reporting periods as reported in accordance with section 1509.11 of the Revised Code shall plug the well in accordance with section 1509.12. Shawn Watson shall submit a written plugging schedule to Inspector Ken Frye at the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Oil and Gas Resources Management, 3575 Forest Lake Drive, Suite 150, Uniontown, OH 44685, within 30 days, per OAC 1501:9-11-05(B), and plug the well within 180 days.

0132341133 2017-10-23 Plug / Plug Back No Violations The purpose of my inspection was to witness plug and abandonment activities on well #2-0392. Owner Shawn Watson had installed 2 tubing in the well to act as a tremie line. Mr. Watson reported the static water level at 6 below surface. R.W. Sidley delivered 1.5 yards of 9 sack grout. The grout was poured into the annular space of the tubing and the fluid in the well displaced into tanks Mr. Watson had on location. After the tremie line stopped flowing, Mr. Watson removed the tubing and prepared to pull the 5 production/intermediate casing. Mr. Watson installed two (2) 15 ton jacks underneath the well head to assist the rig in pulling the casing. The initial attempt to pull the casing failed due to failure of a piece of steel on the sheave block. Further attempts to remove casing were postponed due to inclement weather. I will schedule to witness the second attempt to remove the casing. No violations were observed during this inspection.
