For gas well completions and workovers without hydraulic fracturing, the facility must report the following for each sub-basin:

  • Sub-basin ID - the pick list for this data element is populated based on the Sub-Basin Selection Tab.  Be sure a valid Sub-basin ID is used.
  • Total number of days of gas venting during backflow for completion (98.236(c)(6)(ii)(C)) - this data element should be reported in well days.
  • Annual total CO2 CO2 emissions that resulted from venting gas directly to the atmosphere for completions and workovers (98.236(c)(6)(ii)(D))
  • Annual total CH4 CH4 emissions that resulted from venting gas directly to the atmosphere for completions and workovers (98.236(c)(6)(ii)(D))
  • Annual total CO2 CO2 emissions that resulted from flaring for completions and workovers (98.236(c)(6)(ii)(E))
  • Annual total CH4 CH4 emissions that resulted from flaring for completions and workovers (98.236(c)(6)(ii)(E))
  • Annual total N2O N2O emissions that resulted from flaring for completions and workovers (98.236(c)(6)(ii)(E))))
  • Total count of completions in calendar year (98.236(c)(6)(ii)(A))
  • Total count of workovers in calendar year that flare gas or vent gas to the atmosphere (98.236(c)(6)(ii)(B))
