Aera Energy LLC is seeking approval from the California Department of Conservation, Geologic Energy Management Division to rework a single existing oil and gas well, API number 0401920609, known as Well 766, located in the Coalinga Oil Field in Fresno County, California. The project is limited to repairing casing damage within the existing wellbore on the same site, with no additional construction, and the well will maintain its current type, use, purpose, and capacity after the work is completed. The operation is part of ongoing resource development in a densely populated and actively used oil field, and the well is included in an administrative grouping due to its proximity to other wells. The project has been determined exempt from detailed environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act, and the work is to be performed at the specific geographic coordinates of LAT: 36.24320221, LONG: -120.36079407. The solicitation is classified as a forecast with a posted date of July 15, 2026, and is governed under NAICS code 213112 for oil and gas extraction support activities. No contract value, pricing, delivery schedule, or period of performance is specified in the available documentation. Primary point of contact for regulatory matters is Catherine Calantas at the California Department of Conservation, and Jeffrey Young serves as the agent for Aera Energy. The regulatory filing and metadata confirm the project’s intent to address well integrity without expanding operations or changing the well’s functional parameters.
