Crimson Resource Management Corporation plans to rework a single existing oil well, API number 0403060090, known as 19-09, located in the Midway-Sunset Oil Field in Kern County, California. The work involves removing the current liner and replacing it with a new liner of identical size and depth, while transitioning the well’s operational status from cyclic steam production to oil and gas production. All activities will occur on the existing well pad, with no expansion of infrastructure, including roads, staging areas, or pipelines, and no new vegetation removal or surface disturbance. Crimson will not use any well stimulation fluids during the rework, and the project will strictly comply with CalGEM regulations and its existing UIC Permit Code 46400038. The project is divided into three phases: reworking and equipping, production, and eventual plugging and abandonment, all confined to the already developed site. Environmental compliance is ensured through categorical exemptions under CEQA (Classes 1, 2, and 4), which confirm the project’s minimal environmental impact due to its limited scope and lack of new development. The California Department of Conservation, Geologic Energy Management Division, oversees the permitting and regulatory approval process, with the primary point of contact for environmental queries through the CEQA Program. The project was posted as a forecast on September 24, 2025, and while it does not contain traditional federal contract clauses, pricing, payment terms, or solicitation numbers, it is governed entirely by state regulatory frameworks and operational constraints. No federal acquisition regulations or procurement-specific requirements are applicable, as this is an environmental permitting action rather than a federal contract award.
