Proposed Notice to Lessees/Operators of Onshore Federal and Indian Oil and Gas Leases in Colorado: Mechanical Integrity Tests – Opportunity for Comment
The Bureau of Land Management Colorado is proposing time frame requirements for conducting mechanical integrity tests on non-producing wells, particularly shut-in and temporarily abandoned wells, on BLM lands in Colorado. The BLM would require MITs to be performed within two years of the shut-in date and every five years for shut-in wells. The BLM currently does not have a policy that states the timeframes that tests must be performed; this policy would help the BLM coordinate with the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission by establishing timeframes COGCC has already established. Comments are due December 4, 2016. For a copy of this notice, go to http://www.blm.gov/co/st/en/BLM_Programs/oilandgas/leasing_regulations.html. Comments can be provided at: [email protected]
Proposed Notice to Lessees/Operators of Onshore Federal and Indian Oil and Gas Leases in Colorado: Modular Large Volume Tanks – Opportunity for Comment
The Bureau of Land Management Colorado is proposing regulations for the use of Modular Large Volume Tanks on BLM lands in Colorado. MLVTs are above-ground tanks with synthetic liners that hold large volumes of fluids associated with new drilling and completions. The new regulations would limit MLVTs to only be used with fresh water and would provide operators with more information on permitting MLVTs. The BLM does not currently have policy regulating MLVT use; this policy would help the BLM coordinate with the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission by establishing regulations that mirror COGCC’s. Comments are due by December 4, 2016. For a copy of this notice, go to http://www.blm.gov/co/st/en/BLM_Programs/oilandgas/leasing_regulations.html. Comments can be provided at: [email protected]
