Rework to Repair Well Casing on Pier G (Port of Long Beach) within Tidelands Operating Area

Tidelands Oil Production Company is undertaking a well rework project to repair the existing FR-108 oil and gas well (API #0403701291) located in the Wilmington Oil Field at Pier G of the Port of Long Beach, California. The work involves restoring well integrity by adding perforations to the existing casing to return the well to its current operational use, with no expansion of capacity, new construction, or significant surface disturbance beyond the established well pad. This activity is authorized under categorical exemptions from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), specifically Classes 1, 2, 4, 7, and 8, which permit minor repairs and alterations to existing facilities without requiring a full environmental impact review. The project is regulated and approved by the California Department of Conservation’s Geologic Energy Management Division (CalGEM), which retains authority for inspection, compliance verification, and administrative acceptance at its Long Beach office, while on-site performance and physical acceptance occur at the well location in Los Angeles County. The project is positioned as a forecast posting with no formal solicitation number, contract value, or financial terms disclosed, indicating it is in a preliminary regulatory phase rather than a competitive procurement. Performance is confined to the identified well site with coordinates at latitude 33.75449371 and longitude -118.19897461, and no delivery schedules, FOB terms, invoicing methods, or payment details are provided. Key regulatory standards governing the work include the CEQA Guidelines (14 CCR §§ 15301, 15302, 15304), Public Resources Code provisions related to health protection zones, and CalGEM’s well repair regulations (14 CCR §§ 1684.1, 1684.2). There is no evidence of federal contract clauses, award evaluation factors, special requirements, or contractor representations typically found in federal acquisitions; the documentation consists entirely of environmental compliance determinations and regulatory permitting. Primary contact for the project is Gregory S. Berg, Associate Oil and Gas Engineer at CalGEM, with supplementary liaison handled by Andrew Cochrane of California Resources Corporation. The project remains subject to public inspection through CalGEM’s online portal at ceqanet.lci.ca.gov.
