0026564032 2016-08-10 Production Wells No Violations On the date of my inspection I found the tank battery to include 3 properly identified 100 barrel tanks, a concrete brine vault, a vertical separator, and a production meter box with a current chart, a drip, and a domestic diaphragm meter, within an earthen dike. Behind the northern most tank there is an area approximately 3 feet by 10 feet where the ground is saturated with brine (Quantab >10,000 ppm). A pool of brine approximately 4 inches deep and 2 feet long is located below a valve at the bottom of the tank. The well is equipped with a pumping unit, rods, 2.375 inch tubing, and 4.5 inch casing. The tubing valve is in the open position. Adjacent to the well head there is an area approximately 3 feet by 5 feet where oil and brine have accumulated. Production records end in 2013. Pictures were taken. I spoke with Jim Posey with Samurai Corp, will meet to discuss clean up on 8/11/16 at 10 AM.
0089262543 2012-10-23 Production Wells No Violations My inspection found a well maintained lease road leading up to three 210 barrel production tanks and a horizontal separator contained in a dike. Located outside the dike was a out of use brine vault from the original owner of the well. The well has a pump jack located on it. There was a small cut in the dike that could containment of a spill. I contacted Samurai representative Michael Stone and he stated that there was an order for materials to replace the dyke in process. There were no violations at this time.
0160546385 2013-04-24 Production Wells Violations Noted I was conducting a status check of this well. The pumpjack is located down a lease road in a field behind a house. The tank battery contains 3 production tanks and a vertical separator. The tank battery is not properly contained in a SPCC dike. A brine vault in use is outside of the tank battery and is also not contained in an SPCC dike. There is a small 3x5 spot on the ground were a very small amount of oil and some brine has been spilled. The sun has dried the brine and salt crystals are visible evident. The well needs proper signage, SPCC dikes and the small area of contamination needs to be cleaned up.
0201917812 2017-06-05 Production Wells No Violations On the date of my inspection I found the production equipment to include 3 properly identified 100 barrel tanks, a concrete brine vault, a vertical separator, and a production meter box with an orifice plate and a current chart, 2 drips, and a domestic diaphragm meter, within an earthen dike. The wellhead is equipped with a pumping unit, rods, 2.375 inch tubing, and 4.5 inch casing. A 2.375 inch production line ties the tubing and casing together then runs to the tank battery. Both the tubing and casing valves are open. A gauge on the production line from the tubing reads 70 pounds per square inch and a gauge on the production line from the casing reads 110 pounds per square inch. Production records are current. Near the wellhead there is a metal rack with old rods on it.
