Title of Project: CUVA 326071 & NERI 325969 - Oil/Gas Well Plugging. Cuyahoga Valley National Park, Peninsula, OH, and New River Gorge National Park & Preserve, Glen Jean, WV

Project Description:

The project is located at two parks; CUVA and NERI, and work will generally involve (1) improving the well access road, (2) plugging the well to meet State or Bureau of Land Management requirements, (3) removing all equipment, supplies, and trash; and (4) reclaiming the access road and wellsite to NPS standards.

Project Scope:

This project is a Design-Bid-Build construction effort that will plug, make safe, and mitigate contaminated soil at three (3) abandoned oil and gas wells at Cuyahoga Valley National Park (CUVA) and one (1) abandoned gas well at New River Gorge National Park & Preserve (NERI). After removing and plugging wells, the Contractor will regrade and revegetate the sites to restore natural conditions. The project will provide for visitor safety and restore natural conditions at sites impacted by oil and gas operations.

Expect access roads to be overgrown with trees and shrubs, blocked by downed trees, and in poor condition. The contractor will reopen the road and improve it to accommodate plugging equipment. The contractor will plug the well to ensure that well fluids do not contaminate resources. The wellsites have a wellhead, 200-barrel tank, separator, and flowline meter station. After plugging the well, the contractor will remove and dispose of the wellhead, surface piping, separator, meter station, fluid tank, and all trash related to the well operation. The contractor will also recontour, de-compact, and seed 0.5-acre site and access road.

Offeror.

Estimated Price Range: between $1 million and $5 million

Estimated Period of Performance: 180 calendar days (estimated January 2023 – June 2023)
