THUMS B-329 Well Rework Program at Island White

THUMS Long Beach Co. is undertaking a well rework project at the B-329 injector well in the Wilmington Oil Field, offshore at Island White, Los Angeles County, California, under CalGEM permit #7052449. The work involves repairing the existing wellbore casing by running and cementing a casing sleeve to restore the well’s integrity and return it to its original function as an injector well, with no expansion in operational capacity or significant surface disturbance. This activity is categorized under Group B of CalGEM’s December 2023 Rework Exemptions Guidance and qualifies for categorical exemptions under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), specifically Classes 1 (Existing Facilities), 2 (Replacement or Reconstruction), 4 (Minor Alterations to Land), 7 (Infrequent Use), and 8 (Recreational Facilities), as supported by 14 CCR §§ 15301, 15302, 15304, 15307, and 15308, along with relevant provisions of the Public Resources Code. The project site is legally described as Section 08, Township 05S, Range 12W, B&M: SB, with precise coordinates and API number 0423722888 identifying the well. The project is administered by the California Department of Conservation, Geologic Energy Management Division (CalGEM), which serves as the lead agency for environmental review and permit approval. There is no formal federal contract structure, procurement solicitation, or federally mandated acquisition clauses present; the document is a CEQA Notice of Exemption rather than a federal contract. Financial details including contract value, pricing, CLIN structure, or appropriation codes are not provided, and no payment, invoicing, or accounting systems are referenced. The point of contact for the project is Hafiz Ali Mohammed, Associate Oil and Gas Engineer, with additional correspondence handled through the CalGEM Southern District office in Long Beach. No evaluation factors, special contract requirements, representations, certifications, or delivery schedules are included, as the activity is governed solely by state environmental compliance procedures and regulatory permitting. All activities are confined to the existing well location with inspection and acceptance tied to CalGEM’s administrative approval of the exemption and permit, without requiring additional federal compliance steps.
