OPERATING STATUS: Temporarily down.
PROCESS DESCRIPTION: Oil and gas products are brought to the surface. These products
go through a separator where the oil and any water products are
sent to storage tanks and the gas is used to power equipment on
site (pump jack engine, tank heater, separator, flare, combustor,
etc.) Any remaining gas is sent to a pipeline that feeds a local gas
plant. The oil and process water in the storage tanks is loaded
into tanker trucks and hauled off site for processing and disposal.
APPLICABLE REGULATIONS: Utah Administrative Code (UAC) R307-500 Series for the Oil
and Gas Industry, and UAC R307-201: Emission Standards:

No Flare Controls, Site has Line Power.
DOGM current 12 month rolling production is: 345 BBL's.
Utah Statute R307-506 requires a source with throughput
greater than 8,000 BBLs to have controls.
General Provisions
Visible emissions are within the following opacity limits: VOC Control Devices and Gasoline engines 0%, Diesel engines 20%, Natural Gas Engines and Boilers, Treater burners & Tank burners 10%, Mobile source dust 10%. [ R307-201-3] In Compliance. No excessive opacity limits were observed during evaluation. VOC emissions are, at all times, minimized as reasonably practicable by equipment design, maintenance and operation practices. [R307-501-4(1)] In Compliance. Source meets uncontrolled requirements. All other internal components of tank battery functioning as designed. Pneumatic Controllers All natural gas-driven pneumatic controllers are in compliance with 40CFR 60.5390 or 60.5390a as applicable. Tagging and record keeping requirements are not required. [R307-502-4] In Compliance. This source does not use continuous bleed controllers. Storage Vessels Truck loading is done by bottom filling or submerged fill pipe. [R307-504(1)] In Compliance. The truck loading valves were built and designed for submerged loading. Thief hatches are kept closed and latched. [R307-506-4(1)] In Compliance. All hatches were found closed at the start of the evaluation. Vessel Vent Components: (valves, unions, pressure relief devices, etc.) are leak-free, in good repair, and working as intended. (Tank covers are leak free and form a continuous seal.). [R307-501-4] In Compliance. Components appear in place and operating as intended. OGI camera found no issues. Associated Gas Flaring Associated gas is routed to a process unit for combustion, a sales pipeline or an operating VOC control device, except in an emergency. An emergency release is unanticipated, temporary, infrequent, unavoidable, =24 hrs. and is not due to operator negligence. Low pressure gas from working loss, breathing loss and oil flashing is not "associated gas". [R307-511-4(1)] In Compliance. Associated gas found properly routed to pipeline at the time of inspection.
