This form is to be submitted as an Intent to Abandon whenever an abandonment is planned on a borehole. After the
abandonment is complete, this form shall again be submitted as a Subsequent Report of the actual work completed. The
approved intent shall be valid for six months after the approval date, after that period, a new intent will be required.
Attachments required with the Intent to Abandon are wellbore diagrams of the current configuration and the proposed
configuration with plugs set.
A Subsequent Report of Abandonment shall indicate the actual work completed. Attachments required with a Subsequent
Report are a wellbore diagram showing plugs that were set and casing remaining in the hole, the job summaries from all
plugging contractors used, including wireline and cementing (third party verification) and any logs that may have been run
during abandonment.

Signage for P&As:
Prior to commencing operations, KMG will post signs in conspicuous locations. The signs will indicate plugging and abandonment
operations are being conducted, the well name, well, and the Operator’s contact information. Signs will be placed so as not to create
a potential traffic hazard.
Notifications:
Courtesy notifications will be sent to all parcel owners with building units within 1,500 feet of the location letting them know about out
plugging and abandonment operations and providing contact information for Kerr McGee's response line and online resources.
Wellbore Pressure:
In some cases, wellbore pressure drawdown operations may occur approximately 1-2 days prior to Move In Rig Up (MIRU) of the
workover rig. This is conducted to allow for reduced time that the workover rig is needed on location. These operations will be
conducted in accordance with Form 4 and/or Form 6 requirements.
Water:
Water will be placed on dirt access roads to mitigate dust as needed.
Lighting:
Operations are daylight-only; no lighting impacts are anticipated from operations.
Noise:
Operations will be in compliance with Table 423-1 requirements. Based off the rig sound signature, rig orientation will be considered
to reduce noise levels to nearby building units.
Environmental Concerns:
This location was reviewed using a desktop method to review publicly available wildlife data (including CPW & ECMC data) as well
as internal wildlife datasets and aerial imagery. All field personnel are trained to identify wildlife risks and raise concerns noticed
during operations with the KMOG Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) department.
COA Type Description
Consistent with Rule 911.a, a Form 27 must be approved prior to cut and cap,
conducting flowline abandonment, or removing production equipment. Allow 30 days for
Director review of the Form 27; include the Form 27 document number on the Form 44
for offsite flowline abandonment (if applicable) and on the Form 6 Subsequent.
Properly abandon flowlines per Rule 1105. If flowlines will be abandoned in place,
include with the Form 27: pressure test results conducted in the prior 12 months as well
as identification of any document numbers for a ECMC Spill/Release Report, Form 19,
associated with the abandoned line.
Haverkamp, Curtis
Based on the information provided herein, this Well Abandonment Report (Form 6) complies with COGCC Rules and applicable
orders and is hereby approved.
COGCC Approved:Date:11/2/2023

CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL, IF ANY:
Page 3 of 5Date Run: 11/6/2023 Doc [#403570770] Well Name: CHENG 3-8A
1) Provide electronic Form 42 Notice of MIRU 2 business days ahead of operations and
electronic Form 42 Notice of Plugging Operations 48 hours prior to mobilizing for
plugging operations. These are two separate notifications, required by Rules 405.e and
405.l.
2) After placing plug at 2300’ assure that all fluid migration has been eliminated by
monitoring the well for a minimum of 8 hours before proceeding to the next plug. If at
any time after placing this plug there is evidence of pressure or of fluid migration,
contact ECMC engineering before continuing operations.
3) Prior to placing cement above the base of the Upper Pierre (approximately 1390’):
verify that all fluid (liquid and gas) migration has been eliminated. If evidence of fluid
migration or pressure remains, contact ECMC Engineer for an update to plugging
orders.
4) If surface casing shoe plug is not circulated to surface, shut-in, WOC 4 hours then
tag plug – must be at 492’ or shallower and provide a minimum of 10 sx plug at the
surface.
5) Leave at least 100’ of cement in the wellbore for each plug without mechanical
isolation.
6) After cut and prior to cap, verify isolation by either a 15 minute bubble test or 15
minute optical gas imaging recording. If there is indication of flow contact ECMC
Engineering. Provide a statement on the 6SRA which method was used and what was
observed. Retain records of final isolation test for 5 years.
7) With the Form 6 SRA operator must provide written documentation which positively
affirms each COA listed above has been addressed.
Prior to starting plugging operations a bradenhead test shall be performed if there has
not been a reported bradenhead test within the 60 days immediately preceding the start
of plugging operations.
1) If, before opening the bradenhead valve, the beginning pressure is greater than 25
psi, sampling is required.
2) If pressure remains at the conclusion of the test, or if any liquids were present during
the test, sampling is required.
The Form 17 shall be submitted within 10 days of the test. Sampling shall comply with
Operator Guidance - Bradenhead Testing and Reporting Instructions. If samples are
collected, copies of all final laboratory analytical results shall be provided to the ECMC
within three (3) months of collecting the samples.
If there is a need for sampling, contact ECMC engineering for verification of plugging
procedure.
Operator will implement measures to capture, combust, or control emissions to protect
health and safety, and to ensure that vapors and odors from well plugging operations do
not constitute a nuisance or hazard to public health, welfare and the environment. Due
to the proximity of residential building units (RBUs) all blowdown gasses will be
controlled.
