| 2703883 | Primary Facility | 2018-03-08 | Drilling/Alteration | No Violations Noted | At time of inspection.
On site for a new spud inspection. Rocky Mountain Drilling was on site to drill and run the conductor pipe for the 11H, 15H and 17H wells. Met with driller Cody Groo. The 17H was drilled to 55' and the conductor pipe was run. The 15H was drilled to 55' and they were running the conductor pipe in the well. The 11H was drilled to 30'. They plan on cementing the conductor pipe on the 15H and 17H today then resume drilling on the 11H. I took a walk around the location and there were no obvious concerns noticed. There were no violations noted. |
| 2710144 | Primary Facility | 2018-03-22 | Routine/Complete Inspection | No Violations Noted | I performed a Routine Complete inspection on the Taylor Buckhorn Well Site. There were three new well cellars recently installed. The site was solid and stable. The fill slope was vegetated through the snow cover. The entrance was stable and had no dirt tracking off the site. There were no erosional issues observed. The well was properly labeled.
The wells associated with this site were as follows: 115-21294 115-22452 115-22450 115-22451 There were no violations noted. |
| 2731912 | Primary Facility | 2018-05-21 | Drilling/Alteration | No Violations Noted | At time of inspection.
Met with company man Pat Bauer. Patterson 805 was on site and pulling the drill pipe out of the hole after TD at 10,990'. I took a walk around the location and there were no obvious concerns noticed. There were no violations noted. |
| 2737341 | Primary Facility | 2018-05-29 | Routine/Complete Inspection | No Violations Noted | Jon Sassi and I performed a RTNC inspection of the Taylor Buckhorn well site. The wells associated with this site are as follows: 115-21294, 115-22452, 115-22450, 115-22451. Jack Burns is the company man on the job for this operation. The rig drilling is Patterson 805.
The cut and fill slopes were well vegetated. The topsoil pile had a proper repair and mulch job performed to one corner. The pad surface was well matted and stable. There was no areas of instability noted. The work area was neat and orderly and there was no evidence of any spills or dust problems. There were no violations noted. |
| 2760356 | Primary Facility | 2018-07-31 | Routine/Complete Inspection | No Violations Noted | I inspected the Taylor Buckhorn well pad July 29.
The site was well vegetated and there were no apparent erosional issues noted at the time of inspection. There were no violations noted. |
| 2761304 | Primary Facility | 2018-08-07 | Routine/Complete Inspection | No Violations Noted | At time of inspection.
Met with company man Bill Watts and Safety Consultant Ralph Babcock. ProFrac was on site to frac the 11H, 15H and 17H wells. There were 25 out of 26 stages completed on the 11H. There were 14 out of 17 stages completed on the 15H. There were 18 out of 20 stages completed on the 17H. They were preparing to frac stage 15 on the 15H and run a plug and perf in the 11H when I arrived on site. Fresh water was being pumped to a modular aboveground storage structure on site from the Ayers fresh water impoundment and production water was being trucked to the site. I took a walk around the location and there were no obvious concerns noticed. There were no violations noted. |
| 2761349 | Primary Facility | 2018-07-25 | Incident- Response to Accident or Event | No Violations Noted | The Department arrived on site to perform an incident response inspection at 1200 hours to investigate a self-reported spill of friction reducer on containment. The Department was represented by Jon Sassi (EPS-DEP) and myself.
When we arrived on site, we initially talked to Billy Watts (Completions Consultant-Repsol). He directed us to the location of the spill, where we met up with Ralph Babcock (Site Safety Man-REM Security) and Meagan DePue (HSE Specialist-Repsol). Mr. Babcock and Ms. DePue informed us that the spill occurred on 7/24 at 0900 hours when six (6) ounces of friction reducer (FR) was spilled onto secondary containment. Residual FR leaked out of the hose while it was being unrolled in preparation to be installed. Presumably, the FR remained in the hose from when it was used on the previous well-stimulation job at the nearby Bellows pad. The hoses are all flushed to remove any residuals before being connected together end to end and rolled up as one unit before being transported to the next wel |
| 2761362 | Primary Facility | 2018-07-27 | Incident- Response to Accident or Event | No Violations Noted | The Department arrived on site to conduct an incident response inspection investigating two self-reported releases on the Taylor Buckhorn Pad. The Department arrived on site at 1215 hours and was represented by Jon Sassi (EPS-DEP) and myself. Upon arrival at the pad, we spoke to Ralph Babcock (Site Safety Supervisor-REM Security).
The first spill that was reported was a release of hydraulic fluid in the pump truck battery on containment, which occurred on 7/26 at 0830 hours. Mr. Babcock informed us that the spill originated from a flow meter manifold on one of the pump trucks. A gasket broke on one of the bolts holding the flow meter manifold together. Under high pressure, hydraulic fluid sprayed between the two trucks. An estimated 5 gallons was released, and the spill was completely contained. The pump truck responsible for the spill was taken off the pad and replaced with a new truck. A vacuum truck removed the released hydraulic fluid from containment and deposited it in a production tank to be sent dow |
| 2767024 | Primary Facility | 2018-08-06 | Follow-up Inspection | No Violations Noted | The Department arrived at 1218 hours to conduct a follow-up inspection to document the remediation efforts of a forty (40) barrel spill that occurred on Sunday 7/29 on containment. The spill occurred when a valve on the 1st frac tank was not completely shut, causing the tank to overflow and release production fluid onto secondary containment. Initially, the spill was thought to have been completely contained. The cleanup took three hours, and the operator found no evidence of fluid migration off containment after remediation was complete. No elevated conductivity was detected off containment the day the spill occurred. The operator has since inspected all the valves in the tank battery and replaced all deficient units. The tank battery containment was also inspected but was not visually compromised, although the tanks themselves were not moved due to ongoing well stimulation activities.
On 8/4 at 1415 hours, elevated conductivity readings were measured in the site perimeter stormwater ditch adjacent to the |
| 2768968 | Primary Facility | 2018-08-09 | Follow-up Inspection | No Violations Noted | The Department arrived on site at 1146 hours to conduct a follow-up investigation of a forty (40) barrel release that occurred on 7/29, previously documented in Inspection ID # 2761456. The Department was represented by Jon Sassi (EPS-DEP) and myself.
Upon our arrival, we first spoke with Ralph Babcock, the Site Safety Supervisor for REM security, who took us to the tank battery where the tanks 1-12 were in the process of being removed. Tanks 9-12 had been removed by the time we arrived, and tank 8 was in the process of being removed. Mr. Babcock informed us that after receiving significant rain the night before, the conductivity in the sump ditch had been steadily declining. 405 gallons of stormwater had been pumped out of the sump at point A during the previous 24 hour period. According to Mr. Babcock, readings yesterday were around 2000 µS while readings today were closer to 1100 µS (taken at the sump, point A). Readings in the ditch on the top berm (near points C and D on the map) were 200 µS today, c |
| 2789522 | Primary Facility | 2018-10-16 | Routine/Complete Inspection | No Violations Noted | At time of inspection.
The well was recently completed and put in production. The permit numbers on the entrance sign were correct. The well tag was on the well and correct. There was water 4' below grade in the cellar with no bubbling noticed and there was no gas detected in the remainder of the cellar. The (20x13), (13x9) and (9x5) annuli were venting to the atmosphere. There was a 500bbl tank on containment and the containment appeared to be in good condition. I took a walk around the location and there were no obvious concerns noticed. There were no violations noted. |
