UA - Onshore Gas Number: CO-HSE-032 <br /> HSE Procedure Custodian: Colorado Operations <br /> Spill Prevention, Control and Revision: 0 <br /> Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan Effective: January 2012 <br />13.0 FACILITY BULK STORAGE CONTAINERS <br />13.1 Tank Design, Construction & Operation <br />The East RDD Project's produced water and oil storage tanks will be designed in accordance <br />with industry standards. The tanks will have the following design characteristics: <br />• The site will have above ground tanks for storage of produced water and oil, to be located <br />within a tank battery. These tanks will be stored within secondary containment. No <br />more than three tanks will be operated in an interconnected manner (i.e. lined up, with <br />valves open or equalized). <br />• The tanks will be constructed of a material that is compatible with the produced water, <br />oil and oil products to be stored and the conditions of storage. <br />• Tanks will be operated within "Safe Fill" levels positioned below tank capacity limits. <br />• Tanks will be operated under a nitrogen blanket regulated with a back-pressure controller <br />which relieves to an atmospheric vent system away from the main facility. <br />• The tanks will be protected from over-pressure with a pressure relief device on each tank <br />vented to atmosphere. <br />• The tanks will also be protected against collapse due to vacuum using a vacuum relief <br />device on each tank. <br />• High-level alarms will be installed on all of the storage tanks. <br />• Visible oil leaks which result in a loss of oil from tank seams, gaskets and bolts <br />sufficiently large enough to cause the accumulation of oil in containment areas will be <br />promptly corrected. <br />Continued on next page <br />Printed: April 7, 2011 F Section 13 Page 41 of 71 <br />The controlled version of this "controlling document" resides online in Livelink®.
