[quote:Patassa:MV8yMDEyNDQ5XzM0MTg3MTgwXzVBNDE0REU3] [b]Texas Brine, LLC UPDATE October 29, 2012[/b] http://www.texasbrine.com/response/2012-10-29_TBC-Update.pdf [b]1[/b]. The Observation Well remained shut in today. During hydrocarbon removal on Friday and Saturday the casing pressure was reduced thus indicating brine was filling the casing. However, after this work, hydrocarbons continued to enter the casing from the cavern causing the casing surface pressure to return to 940-970 psig on Sunday. Hydrocarbon removal is planned to resume Tuesday and continue through the week, with brine being pumped in to replace the hydrocarbon to maintain steady cavern pressures. [b]2.[/b] The testing of the Observation Well last Friday indicated the cavern floor had risen an additional 10 feet from the previous measurement on October 19. The cavern floor has come up approximately 52 feet since it was first measured on September 24. Additional measurements are planned for later this week. [b]3.[/b] The removal of liquid hydrocarbons from the sinkhole surface resumed today. The size and characteristics of the sinkhole remain unchanged. Gas continues to bubble up in the center of the sinkhole. [b]4.[/b] Since perforating the casing last week, the shallow aquifer relief well has still not indicated any gas pressure. Various options to assist gas to start flowing through the perforations are being evaluated. Once these plans are finalized, work is expected to resume later this week in order to begin venting/flaring gas from the aquifer.
