0486517203 2009-05-19 Orphan No Violations Area around well has been excavated to top of rock to expose well casing. Mike Coyer was on site and has welded control head on well. Valve installed on well to allow release of pressure before plugging. Gas pressure built up in well after being closed for a few minutes and flame burned 6-10 feet high.
0502871959 2010-03-01 Plug / Plug Back No Violations Diverter succcesfully attached to well after some problems. Well was cleaned out to depth of 1133 feet. Several bridges were drilled through to reach total depth. Fluids in well suppressed gas so H2S not a problem. Operator pumped 126 sacks Class A cement into well. Fluids displaced to tank.. Cement will be allowed to set up over night and tag depth in morning. Bradner Oil, Marathon Oil and Total Safety on site.
1244558938 2009-06-08 Orphan No Violations Checked well. Gas is leaking from area where welding was done to attach well head control. Spoke to Mike Coyer by phone. He said he has tried to repair small leaks by welding and use of JB Weld material. The old casing is deteriorated and difficult to repair. Recommends clamping rubber sleeve around casing to help contain gas.
1244723622 2009-06-10 Orphan No Violations Met on site with Mike Coyer to repair gas leak on well. Jeff Fry also present during inspection. Village of Portage Fire Department assisted by supplying compressed air for Mike while making repair to well due to the serious health problems from H2S exposure while making repairs last time. A rubber gasket with steel clamp was placed around the weld area. This stopped the gas leak. In addition a 12 foot long PVC pipe was placed over the well and backfilled around the base. This will protect the well from vandalism and also vent gas above ground should the well start leaking again. These measures are only a temporary fix and the well needs to be properly plugged to eliminate the H2S gas problem. Members of the fire department on site confirmed that calls about gas leaking have occurred from this well. These calls not only reqired fire department response but also from the local gas company to try to find the source of the odor. The source of the gas was unknown at that time since the well was buried under a pile of rocks and debris.
1247516242 2009-07-13 Orphan No Violations Checked repairs made on well to stop H2S gas release. Gas odor is obvious standing down wind of riser pipe. Additional gas leaks are suspected from deteriorated casing on well. Will contact Jeff Fry and Mike McCormac about condition at well.
