2485965 Primary Facility 2016-05-12 Routine/Partial Inspection No Violations Noted Inspection to resolve outstanding violations against the Phoenix 590627 well. DEP Environmental Cleanup and Brownfield Program has approved the Act 2 final report for attainment of the Statewide Health Standards for soil at the site. As such, the 2/1/12 and 8/2/12 violations against permit #117-20725 (Phoenix 590627) are resolved. No new issues were observed at the site. TLT
2531678 Primary Facility 2016-10-26 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Inspection of EQT’s Phoenix 590796 (117-20970) unconventional gas well in Duncan Twp. Tioga County conducted October 26, 2016 at 11:50 am. At the time of inspection; the well had a production tree in place, shut-in. Analog pressure gauge on the tree top was shut-in from well, 0 PSI. There was a digital scada gauge on the production casing wing valve down in the cellar; not visible. The valve for the backside of the production casing (9 5/8” x 5 ½”) annulus was partially buried at the bottom of the cellar. The valve was open at the wellhead but shut in at the vent pipe plumped to surface. The operator has plans to plug this well. There are (6) other active wells on the pad in production; #590794 (117-20969), #590792 (117-20980), #590791 (117-20967), #590790 (117-20965), #590627 (117-20725), and #590025 (117-20994). Visual inspection of WH and cellars; no obvious concerns. Went over plugging procedure for the -796 with the operator. Expected to rig up on the well next week for plugging ops.
2533189 Primary Facility 2016-11-01 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Inspection of EQT’s Phoenix 590796 (117-20970) unconventional gas well in Duncan Twp. Tioga County conducted November 1, 2016 at 10:00 am. At the time of inspection; a workover rig was rigged up on the well for plugging ops. I met with the Companymen to discuss operation on the pad. Wireline was rigged up for gauge run down to the obstruction (6470’). If run is successful they’ll set the CIBP in the 5 ½” prod. csg. @ 6450’, cap with cement using dump bailer. Tomorrow they’ll circulate gel, set second CIBP (4070’), run freepoint tool and shoot off casing above freepoint (pull ~3626’ 5 ½” production casing). Allied is lined up to mix, pump, and spot (3) balanced cement plugs; #1) from the production casing stub (~3626-2526) in the 8 ½” open hole, #2) in the open hole, across the 9 5/8” shoe up into the 9 5/8” (2576-2126), and #3) (1275-1225, in the 9 5/8” csg). I plan to return Thursday when they estimate spotting balanced plugs and asked the Companymen to catch a slurry sample if I’m not on location. Aside fr
2534415 Primary Facility 2016-11-03 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Inspection of EQT’s Phoenix 590796 (117-20970) unconventional gas well in Duncan Twp. Tioga County conducted November 3, 2016 at 8 am. At the time of inspection; a workover rig was rigged up on the well for plugging ops. I met with the Companymen to discuss operation on the pad since my last visit Tuesday. CIBP has been set, 6450’ with 15’ cement dump bailed; sample displayed good strength. The wireline perf’d the 4 ½” at 3850’ so the rig can establish circulation to flush mud out of the annulus to avoid the well U-tubing when they go to pull casing (heavy drilling mud on the backside of csg), and ensure casing is free. The rig couldn’t establish circulation here; went uphole w/ perfs (3650’, 3450’, 3250’) and broke circulation at 3052’.. Plans going forward; shoot & pull production casing, cement w/ Allied as scheduled for remaining balanced cmt plugs. Aside from the well being plugged there are (6) active wells on the pad in production; #590794 (117-20969), #590792 (117-20980), #590791 (117-20967), #590790
2545943 Primary Facility 2016-12-13 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Inspection of EQT’s Phoenix 590796 (117-20970) unconventional gas well in Duncan Twp. Tioga County conducted 12/13/16 at 11 am. WO Rig on location for remediation after bubbling inside the 9 5/8” was noticed after plugging ops. I met with the Companyman to discuss operations since my last visit 11/30. The rig drilled out (2) cmt plugs til they found good cmt @ ~2219. They set (2) CIBPs above that point, dump bailed 5’ cmt on top, some bubbling still reported at that point. They ran a downhole camera for which I reviewed the video on location; bubbling was definitely coming from below the bridge plugs, csg collars looked OK. At that point they circulated the hole and reportedly had no bubbling since. They set (2) more balanced cement plugs in the 9 5/8” as a precaution. The last blend they ran was 10% salt w 2% calcium chloride; samples showed good strength. No integrity issues reported on the 9 5/8”s annulus. Aside from the well being plugged there are (6) active wells on the pad in production; #590794 (117-
2551759 Primary Facility 2017-01-09 Routine/Partial Inspection No Violations Noted Routine partial inspection. Site snow covered. Well pad being prepared for arrival of the drill rig. Five new wells permitted and were reported as spud on 12/27/16. Entire pad surface covered by mats, which were underlain with textured liner. Crew on site working to berm up the liner around the perimeter of the pad. Impoundment 2 was frozen over and snow covered; adequate freeboard remained. Multiple piles of spoil material observed at staging area along access road. Material to be placed for subbase for the above ground storage tank pad, which will be constructed at the former Impoundment 1 location. TLT
2592178 Primary Facility 2017-05-10 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted I arrived on-site @11:20 hrs and met Bill Wallace of SWN. Patterson/UTI rig 294 on site, running pipe into the 593939 well, and anticipate skidding the rig to the 593940 well tonight. Site was neat, secondary containment was present and in good condition on top of rig mats. Chemical storage and backyard looked good. I departed the site @11:50 hrs.
2614011 Primary Facility 2017-07-06 Routine/Partial Inspection No Violations Noted No activity on the pad when I arrived. 10 K bbl. tank had been erected on the site, approximately 1/2 full of what appeared to be precipitation. Some water had collected in the pad containment near the edges; conductivity of this water was in the .45- .67 mS/cm range. The tank also appeared to have a remote monitoring system hooked up to it. Rig mats were still down over the entire pad from drilling operations. The liner berm at the site entrance seemed somewhat worn; I recommend that it be fully assessed before any fracing operations begin.
2657494 Primary Facility 2017-11-01 Incident- Response to Accident or Event No Violations Noted I met with Corey Giles of EQT and Neil Ketchum of Groundwater Sciences when I arrived. My inspection was in response to a reported release to the drainage ditch on the south side of the pad. A third party EHS group discovered water with elevated conductance (1-3.5 mS/cm) in the ditch on 10/31. The area had been more or less continuously vacced between the time it was discovered and the time I arrived. Corey and Neil had just finished taking soil and water conductance readings along the length of the ditch (see attached photos). Their investigation showed a gradient, beginning on the south side of the pad in the ditch approximately 100-125' east of the pad entrance, with the highest soil and water conductance in that area (6.77 mS/cm water, 2.57 mS/cm soil) and declining readings as they probed downgradient. At the time, the source of the water was unknown, but the area where the water was coming into the ditch seemed to be at the area of highest conductance. The containment berm on the pad had not yet
2743481 Primary Facility 2018-06-19 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted The DEP inspected the EQT – Phoenix Site C Well Pad located in Duncan Twp, Tioga Co. on 6/20/2018 @1100 hours. The weather was 78 degrees, 45% humidity and winds N 12mph. The receiving waters are listed as Sand Run (CWF) wild trout stream. The well site is in production. No activity was observed onsite during this inspection.

The site consists of the access road, freshwater impoundment, and well pad on a total of 22.4 acres. The impoundment is drawn down and almost empty. There are 11 wells currently in production, and one plugged well. The area surrounding the well pad appeared stabilized. A plastic bag containing old foam berms has blown onto the south slope of the pad and should be removed.

No new violations were noted during this inspection.

The following violations from Inspection Record #2657056 dated 11/01/2017, resulting from the release of a pollutional substance to the drainage ditch, remain OUTSTANDING against the PHOENIX 590627 Well (API#117-20725):
