Maximizing GIS Field Data for the Ever Changing Oil & Gas Regulations
Presented By:
Matt Shetzer, Petroleum Field ServicesGlenn Vlass, CartoPac Field Solutions
Overview
• Review the highlights and changes of the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) regulations
• Gather data once – Many uses
• Mobile QA/QC
• Tools for non‐GIS User
Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission
• To promote the responsible development of Colorado's oil and gas natural resources
• The efficient exploration and production of oil and gas resources in a manner consistent with the protection of public health, safety and welfare
• The prevention of waste
• The protection of mineral owners' correlative rights
• The prevention and mitigation of adverse environmental impacts
COGCC Regulations
• Highlights– Effective May 1st, 2009 for all Federal Lands– Effective April 1st, 2009 for all other Lands– Existing permits will be grandfathered– Mandatory process for all proposed locations
• Overview– New permit process requires larger amount of field data collection
– Increased Regulatory burden anticipated to slow down permitting process
– Other States are requiring more information
Series 300: Colorado Form 2A
• Required for permitting all O&G locations unless coveredby approved CDP
• Covers multi‐well pads
• Exhibits–400 ft Radius–1000 ft Radius
•Surface waters•Riparian
–Vicinity Map•USGS Topographic•Access Roads to Site

Data to Capture for Form 2A
Sample Form 2A
Rule 216: Comprehensive Drilling Plan (CDP)
• Identify foreseeable oil and gas activities in a defined geographical area• Eliminates the need to file a Form 2A for each location• Allows operators to know the conditions of approval prior to applying for drilling permit• Prior meetings with DOW and CDPHE• CDP is good for 6 years. 2a good for 3yrs, permit good for one year

Series 1200: Wildlife
• 1200 series– Protection of wildlife
• Rule 1201– Identification of Wildlife Species
and Habitat
• Rule 1202– Consultation
• Rule 1205– Restricted surface occupancy

Wildlife Areas Established
Questions
• Oil and gas companies?
• Capture well or pipeline data?
• Does Regulatory use your asset data?
• Does Engineering use your asset data?
• Does Operations use your asset data?
PFS Project Requirements
• Fast 3 day turn‐around for exhibits
• 1 trip to the field for GPS field data collection
• Accurate data (1 meter)• Field personnel QA/QC data on site
• Field personal able to load data remotely
• Email notification on events• Field data accessible to ALL
What Happens in the Field
• Open the “Project”– Reference data
• Maps and imagery• GIS data layers
• Turn on GPS • Navigate to proposed location
• Collect data• Verify data• Modify data
What Happens Back in the Office
• Field users upload data back to the server– From office or remote location
• Automated processes– GPS post processing
• Verify required accuracy
• Generation of exhibits and reports• Distribute data to non‐GIS users
– Web browsers– ArcServer– Google Earth
Bonus Data—Gather Once and Use Many
• Stormwater Management• Floodplain Hazard Development Plans (FHDP)
– Weld County requirement• Engineering Design
– Shape files imported into CAD environment• Utility Locates / One Call
– Pre‐drilling • Noxious Weed Prevention\Documentation
– Pre‐drilling until life of well• Asset Management• Pumper Maps• Logistics Planning

Data for Engineering Design
Non‐GIS Personal
• Full web access to data– Non‐GIS personnel
• Mobile data access – Units given to all field workers
• Land managers data– Floodplains– Wildlife
• Operations Decisions– Operations/Production– Regulatory
• Cross department data use – No overlapped repetitive data gathering
• Placeholder for dot map
Cross Department Data Sharing
Configuring a Mobile Solution
• PFS approached CartoPac with a need• New Data Collection Process Defined by Regulations• Continued Support for current data collection process• Multiple potential use models
– Use by PFS – Use by Operator– Both use by PFS and Operator
• Base solution needs to be easily expanded for other data collection
Integrated Regulations
Solution Components
• Mobile Solution with workflow supporting COGCC permitting requirements
• Web based server deployment• Server based Geo‐processes
– Reporting– GPS Post Processing
• Export to other systems for permit generation and submission
• Options to easily share and show what field data has been collected– Google Earth
Anticipated Cost due to increasing number of regulations
ActualCost increasesin order to
comply to newregulations
Decrease actual costs• Maximize efficiency• Automate processes• Communicate with other departments
• Keep field people in the field vs. in the office
• Gather once, use many
BeforeCost of
documents prior to new regulations
BonusOther projects data

Regulations for Data Collection & Well Permitting
Summary
• Meet new regulations
• Full utilization of data
• Fast 3 day turn‐around
• Reduce costs of other projects
