*The total expenditures will not match total historical expenditures shown in OWA Annual Report for the following reasons:
This is not a complete list. Some long term orphan wells and very old historical wells with incomplete information are excluded.
Payments to active working interest partners for abandonment or reclamation work done on orphans licensed to defunct companies that have been Recoveries from ERCB collected through successful enforcement activities against the defunct company may be included.
Payments to the ERCB for reimbursement for unsuccessful enforcement activities may be included. LLR Security Deposits held by the ERCB for the defunct company may be included. Expenditures for historical orphan wells that were abandoned by the ERCB prior to 1997 which are difficult to track or explain are not included.
Some historical costs (less than $10,000) that cannot be attributed to a specific site or defunct company are not included in this list.
Minor expenditures on orphan wells that were subsequently transferred to active companies are excluded from list (<$5,000).
Expenditures on some long term orphan wells include reclamation expenditures in the Abandonment Expenditures column.
Expenditures on pipelines and facilities are included with the Abandonment expenditures. 2/26/2015 2:01 PM
