About this file
This is an Addendum to an Invitation to Bid issued by the Commonwealth of Kentucky Department for Facilities and Support Services, Division of Engineering and Contract Administration, for the Kentucky Abandoned Storage Tank and Orphan Well Reclamation Program (KASTOW) Edmonson 001, dated September 4, 2026, under RFP-53-27 (RFP-785-2700000046). The addendum revises and replaces previously issued plugging procedures and requirements for orphan well reclamation activities in the South-Central Kentucky region, encompassing 24 counties. The primary service involves plugging and reclaiming abandoned wells using service rigs and steel tubing work strings, with specific procedures differentiated by well depth: wells 1,500 feet or shallower require Class A, Class L, or Type 1L cement to be circulated solid to surface, while wells deeper than 1,500 feet require multiple staged cement plugs at specific intervals with bottom plugs at total depth and protective plugs to isolate freshwater zones. All work must include site access preparation, pit construction with six-mil liners, wellhead entry establishment or dismantlement, casing perforations when necessary, and complete site reclamation with proper grading and stabilization.
The addendum specifies that slickline plugging methods are not acceptable and that all plugging activities must utilize service rigs with steel tubing work strings. For wells in areas where hydrogen sulfide gas is present or detected, contractors must use 50/50 pozzolan or latex-laden cement rather than standard formulations. The submission requires bidder conformance to these revised technical specifications, which become binding upon contract issuance. All casing must be cut 3 feet below surface after cement has set, pit fluids must be properly disposed of, and wellsites must be fully reclaimed according to the Scope of Work standards. Division Inspector coordination and landowner access approval are mandatory prerequisites for all work activities.
