Aera Energy LLC seeks approval from the California Department of Conservation, Geologic Energy Management Division to rework a single existing oil and gas well, API number 0401924834, known as CMS 34, located within the densely developed Coalinga Oil Field in California. The project involves modifying the well to extend its productive life and continue extraction activities in an area already characterized by extensive infrastructure and ongoing operations. Due to the well’s proximity to other active wells in the field, it is included as part of an administrative grouping, streamlining regulatory oversight for multiple operations in proximity. The work requires a permit under CalGEM’s jurisdiction to ensure compliance with state standards for well integrity, environmental protection, and operational safety. The solicitation is listed as a forecast with a posted date of August 10, 2026, and all correspondence should be directed to the primary point of contact, Catherine Calantas, or Aera’s agent, Jeffrey Young, through designated email and phone channels. The project site is located in the city of Coalinga, California, with regulatory oversight handled centrally by the state agency.
