Full Description

Show more
The primary work objective is to sidetrack six (6) existing well(s). This work is designed to support continuation of oil and gas resource development in the area. The wells are not being sidetracked (i) for abandonment purposes only or (ii) in connection with an enforcement order to mitigate or prevent environmental damage or surface expression. Sidetracking is the process of drilling a new wellbore from an existing wellbore. This is typically done when the original wellbore encounters a problem, when accessing remaining hydrocarbons within portions of the same reservoir, or when obstructions in the wellbore need to be bypassed. This process allows drilling a new section in an existing wellbore in the same rock formation restoring the well’s original functionality. The proposed project consists of the California Department of Conservation, Geologic Energy Management Division (CalGEM) approving four permits for Aera Energy LLC to perform work on the wells listed below, in the Coalinga Oil Field.
