1 Well Rework Program at Pier G within Tidelands Operating Areas

Tidelands Oil Production Company is undertaking a single-well rework project at Pier G in the Wilmington Oil Field, targeting well FY-125 with API number 0403702951. The project involves casing repair and rework within the existing wellbore of a waterflood well, classified as a minor alteration under CalGEM’s December 2023 rework exemptions guidance. No new infrastructure, surface disturbance, or production expansion is planned, and the work aligns with CEQA categorical exemptions under Class 1, Class 2, and Class 4, which exclude such activities from further environmental review. The project is under the purview of the California Department of Conservation, Geologic Energy Management Division (CalGEM), which will issue the necessary permit. All activities are confined to the existing well site in Los Angeles County, with coordinates specified, and compliance is assessed against state regulations without reference to federal procurement standards or contractual mechanisms such as pricing, delivery schedules, or invoicing procedures. The documentation reflects an environmental exemption certification rather than a traditional contract, with no federal acquisition regulation (FAR) clauses, funding identifiers, payment details, or award evaluation factors present. There is no stated contract value, no line items or cost breakdowns, and no solicitation or contract number has been issued. The point of contact for regulatory matters is Indar Singh, Associate Oil and Gas Engineer at CalGEM, while the permit process is governed by state environmental laws including 14 CCR §§ 15301, 15302, and 15304. The project’s approval hinges solely on demonstrating adherence to exemption criteria, with inspection and acceptance conducted at the site by CalGEM as the lead agency. No representations, certifications, subcontracting requirements, or special contractual conditions are outlined, and the submission process is not governed by formal proposal guidelines but through state environmental review channels.
