Crimson Resource Management Corp. has been granted regulatory approval by the California Department of Conservation, Geologic Energy Management Division (CalGEM) to rework one existing steamflood injector well, API number 0403050965, located in Section 35, Township 25S, Range 20E, within the densely developed Lost Hills Oil Field in Kern County, California. The project is confined to downhole interventions such as casing repair, perforation, and equipment replacement on the established well pad, with no expansion of surface infrastructure or increase in production capacity. The activity qualifies for CEQA categorical exemptions under Class 1 (Existing Facilities), Class 2 (Replacement or Reconstruction), and Class 4 (Minor Alterations to Land), confirming that the work presents negligible environmental impact and complies with state regulatory standards. The permit approval was issued on October 17, 2025, following a submission deadline on the same day, with public notice posted on October 21, 2025. There is no commercial contract value, pricing structure, or federal acquisition elements involved; this is strictly an environmental permitting action under California law. The place of performance is the existing well site, and formal acceptance is administrative, determined solely by CalGEM’s issuance of the exemption. No federal contract clauses, invoicing methods, accounting codes, or procurement-specific roles such as COR or PCO are applicable, as the process is governed entirely by state environmental regulations. Contact for the project is via CalGEM’s central office in Bakersfield, with a designated agent from Crimson Resource Management available for technical correspondence.
