<br /> 13. Describe Proposed or Completed Operation:Clearly state all pertinent details,including estimated starting date of any proposed work and approximate duration thereof.If
<br /> the proposal is to deepen directionally or recomplete horizontally,give subsurface locations and measured and true vertical depths of all pertinent markers and zones.Attach
<br /> the Bond under which the work will be performed or provide the Bond No.on file with BLM/BIA.Required subsequent reports must be filed within 30 days following
<br /> completion of the involved operations.If the operation results in a multiple completion or recompletion in a new interval,a Form 3160-4 must be filed once testing has been
<br /> completed.Final Abandonment Notices must be filed only after all requirements,including reclamation,have been completed and the operator has determined that the site
<br /> is ready for final inspection.)
<br /> All depths are referenced to GL.The BG-1 well reached the end of its useful life and has been plugged and abandoned. The nitrogen lift sampling pump
<br /> and all associated tubing was pulled out of the well. A 3.75-inch tri-cone bit was advanced down the well to drill-out a cast iron bridge plug at a depth of
<br /> 1,559 feet below ground level(BGL). The hard cement plug was drilled from 1,699 feet to 1,700.5 feet to gauge the consistency of the plug.Fluid in the
<br /> well was air lifted(with foam)from a depth of 1,700.5 feet. The casing was then cleaned with a 4.5-inch casing scraper to 1,700 feet. A cement bond log
<br /> (CBL)was run from a depth of 1,690.5 feet to identify perforation zones. The 4.5-inch casing was perforated at 1,305, 1,150,966,585,250,and 50 feet
<br /> BGL with 3 shots per foot and 120 degree phasing. All cement plugs were placed using the balance method. Plug 1 cement consisted of 16.8 bbls(73.5
<br /> sks)of 14.3 lb/gal Portland Type 1/II cement and was pumped in three lifts:355 gallons of cement at a depth of 1,680 feet,200 gallons at 1,380 feet,and
<br /> 150 gallons at 1,180 feet. Plug 1 was allowed to set 18.5 hours,after which the top of cement was tagged at 813 feet. Plug 2 cement consisted of 17.9
<br /> bbls(77.9 sks)of 14.3 lb/gal Portland Type 1/II cement and was pumped in two lifts,the first lift of 400 gallons from 800 feet,and the second lift of 350
<br /> gallons from 600 feet to surface. The calculated volume of 1,700.5 feet of 4.5-inch OD cased hole was 26.4 bbls(148.2 cu ft).A total of 34.6 bbls(151.4
<br /> sks, 194.4 cu ft)of cement,31.1%excess,was used to plug and abandon the BG-1 well to surface. The BG-1 plug and abandonment was completed on
<br /> 9/21/22.
