Inspection Data

Inspections Performed

Inspection ID Inspection Category Inspection Date Inspection Type Inspection Result Inspection Comments
2055092 Primary Facility 2012-03-28 Drilling/Alteration No Violations Noted
2063959 Primary Facility 2012-02-28 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted
2166628 Primary Facility 2013-05-02 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted
2378643 Primary Facility 2015-06-12 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Arrived on site at 11:55 and departed at 12:15. Weather conditions were sunny and ~85° F. No Chesapeake representatives were present during the inspection.
2493806 Primary Facility 2016-06-16 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Vegetative cover on site is greater than 70% perennial vegetation. Temporary erosion and sediment control BMPs are still in place around the well pad. Temporary BMPs have been removed along the access road. No evidence of accelerated erosion or sedimentation was observed.

According to the Department's records, no current drill permit exists for this site. In accordance with Title 58 Pa. C.S. § 3216 (2012 Oil and Gas Act), relating to site restoration, a well site must be restored within 9 months of completing drilling the last well. Section 3216 allows for a 2-year extension of time for site restoration to be reviewed and approved by the Department. The Department's records do not indicate such an extension has been requested. In order to remain in compliance with the 2012 Oil and Gas Act, an extension should be requested or the site restored.

No violations were cited during this inspection.

2513634 Primary Facility 2016-07-06 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Arrived @ 09:45. Weather: sunny, with a breeze. For this follow-up inspection, I arranged to meet with a Chesapeake representative. Met with Joel Mincer (Chesapeake) so that he could open annular vents to further evaluate methane detections noted in my previous inspection (7/6/16 - 2501163). There were 3 wells spudded on a 6-slot setup. The Ridenour NE SUL 1H (113-20145) was in production, and tagged.

Ridenour SUL NW 4H (113-20147). The well did not have a tag. An application for Inactive Well Status prompted my previous inspection on 7/6/16. Its identity was confirmed by Mincer who also isolated the annulus from the dump line and removed the 13-3/8” x 9-5/8” gas check cap. The annular vent was filled with water and bubbles were emerging at a rate of approximately one every second. Field monitoring identified these bubbles as methane, confirming the previous inspection’s monitoring results which found 2% methane through the openings in the gas check cap. On 5/2/13 methane was detected on this annulus (IR#

2537279 Primary Facility 2016-10-05 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Arrived @ 12:30. Weather: sunny, warm. There were 3 wells spudded on a 6-slot setup. This was a follow-up inspection of the Ridenour Sul NW 4H to determine whether low levels of combustible gas at the 13-3/8” x 9-5/8” annulus observed on 2 previous inspections (7/6/16 IR# 2513635, 7/11/16, IR# 2525287) were changing with time. Using an Altair 5X gas meter (calibrated 10/5/16) and a gas collection hood that fit over the 2” gas check valve, I obtained variable readings which peaked at 13% LEL. On 7/6/16, 2% combustible gas/volume was detected on this annulus. On 7/11/16 methane was observed slowly bubbling in the annulus. Previously, on 5/2/13, methane was also detected on this annulus (IR# 2166628). A follow-up inspection will be conducted to monitor changes at the annulus vent. No violations noted at this time. Left location at 14:00.
2545905 Primary Facility 2016-12-13 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Arrived @ 12:00. Weather: sunny, snow on the ground. There were 3 wells spudded on a 6-slot setup. This was a follow-up inspection of the Ridenour Sul NW 4H to determine whether low levels of combustible gas at the 13-3/8” x 9-5/8” annulus observed on 2 previous inspections (7/6/16 IR# 2513635, 7/11/16, IR# 2525287. 10/5/16, IR# 2537279) were changing with time. Using an Altair 5X gas meter (calibrated 12/6/16) and a gas collection hood that fit over the 2” gas check valve, I did not detect combustible gas on this annulus. On 7/6/16, 2% combustible gas/volume was detected on this annulus. On 7/11/16 methane was observed slowly bubbling in the annulus. Previously, on 5/2/13, methane was also detected on this annulus (IR# 2166628). No violations noted at this time. Left location at 12:45.
2560122 Primary Facility 2017-02-08 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted
2628971 Primary Facility 2017-08-24 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Arrived @ 13:20. Weather: sunny. 3 wells. 2 fracced and awaiting drill out, 1 in production. Annuli on fracced wells shut in and not plumbed to dump tank. Grady rentals onsite. Left @ 13:40
2722835 Primary Facility 2018-04-25 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Containment down around well heads. A workover rig is expected to be on location in the next month.
2827328 Primary Facility 2019-01-14 Routine/Complete Inspection No Violations Noted Chesapeake Appalachia submitted a Well Site Restoration Report (WSRR) for the Ridenour pad. The WSRR was received by the Department on 1/14/19. Arrived onsite at 10:38, the weather was ~20°F and calm. The pad was very icy and some areas had ruts from vehicles. The gate was open when I arrived.

There were 3 properly tagged Marcellus wells staged for production. The well cellars and surrounding area were filled with water and frozen (Photo #2). There were 3 GPUs, 3 sand separators, and 2 produced water tanks onsite and in secondary containment.

The site was greater than 70% vegetative cover and no E&S issues were observed. It appeared that PCSM had been addressed and was functioning as intended. Some temporary E&S BMPs remained in place around the site. These temporary measures should be removed prior to the submission on an NOT.

The Department recommends acknowledging the WSRR.

No violations noted.
