### 1. P URPOSE



### This operation and maintenance plan (O&M Plan) contains the operating procedures,

routine monitoring and surveillance, maintenance plan, and training program for plant

operators for the McElmo Creek Unit Oil Production Facility (MCU Facility) gas

compression plant

.

2. P ROCESS 

### O VERVIEW



### The MCU Facility gas compression plant serves tertiary recovery operations for the

McElmo Creek Field. The gas compression plant receives produced gas through a

gathering system, pressures the gas up to a suitable working pressure then re

- injects

the gas to maintain reservoir pressure. The nat ural gas is injected with produced water

in a dual injection system. Due to varying water injection demands in the field, and to

the number of wells being serviced at any time, the gas compression plant inlet volume

can vary between 10 and 24 million stand ard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD).

The gas is processed in three main steps: (1) inlet separation, (2) compression

, and

(3) re

- injection.

2.1 Inlet Separation

The inlet separation consists of an inlet slug receiver which collects free liquids. The gas

then passes through filter vessels which collect any incoming solids.

2.2 Compression

The gas compression plant houses the following five (5) compressors:

Compressor Operating Status

Acid Gas A Nonoperational

Acid Gas B Operational

Aerial C

- 5 Operational

HOS

- 4 Operational

HOS

- 6 Operational

Acid Gas B, Aerial C

- 5, HOS

- 4, and HOS

- 6 are high

- speed electrically

- dri ven reciprocating compressors. Aerial C

- 5, HOS

- 4, and HOS

- 6 are the primary facility

compressors.

Acid Gas B is a smaller unit and is only used for backup and excess throughput. Acid

Gas A is non

- functioning and uneconomical to return to service. It remains at the plant

as a source of spare parts for the Acid Gas B compressor.O perations & Maintenance Plan

McElmo Creek Unit Oil Production Facility

PSD Permit No. NU 05

- 01, Appendix A

September 2016

Page 3 of 9 

### The compressors provide approxima tely 8,000 combined brake horsepower (BHP) and

each compressor consists of four or five compression stages which raise the pressure

of the incoming gas from 40 psig to 2,900 psig. Each stage has a dedicated aerial

cooler and liquid scrubber vessel. Inter s tage dehydration takes place to remove water

for corrosion mitigation on the HOS

- 6 compressor.

Operations, maintenance and isolation procedures for Ariel C

- 5, HOS 4, and HOS 6

compressors are included as attachments to this O&M Plan ( see the Life C ycle

Maintenance Plan in Attachment A

- 1 , and the Isolation and Operation Procedures in

Attachment A

- 3 of this O&M Plan )

. Operating and isolation procedures are included for

the Acid Gas B compressor. However, a separate maintenance table has not been

devel oped for the Acid Gas B compressor because it is only capable of handling 1.6

MMCF/day and was never intended to be part of the primary process train at the facility.

2.3 Re

- Injection

The compressor units discharge into a single header, where purchased carbon dioxide

(CO 2 

### ) is co

- mingled to achieve a daily injection rate of up to 24 MMSCFD. The gas is

then distributed to the field.

During gas compression plant upsets or compressor downtime events, a portion or all of

the inlet volume to the gas compress ion plant is automatically diverted to flare until the

problem is corrected.

3. R OUTINE 

### M ONITORING 

### & S URVEILLANCE



### The gas compression plant is manned 24 hours a day by operators who work 12

- hour

shifts. The operators make plant rounds each shift, during which key operating

parameters of the compressors and supporting equipment are monitored. The following

are examples of the parameters that a re recorded during a shift:

• Overall gas compression plant inlet and discharge volumes

• CO 2 

### purchased volumes

• Flared volumes

• Discharge pressure

• Compressor run times

From the o perator ’ s daily r un time report ( see Daily Plant Reading Form in At tachment

A

- 2 of this O&M Plan ), a compressor reliability spreadsheet and flare volume report

are updated.

The o perators monitor key operating parameters for the compressors to ensure the

units are operating within prescribed operating limits based on Resolute Natural

Resources Compa ny, LLC and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) standards

(e.g., c ompressor suction and discharge temperatures and pressures , or s crubber liquidO perations & Maintenance Plan

### levels )

.

The detailed parameters that are checked during the shift are i ncluded in the

maintenance plan and operating procedures ( see the Life Cycle Maintenance Plan in

Attachment A

- 1 of this O&M Plan , and the Isolation and Operation Procedures in

Attachment A

- 3 of this O&M Plan)

. The operators are very familiar with prescribed

operating limits, as this is part of their training. If the operator observes a parameter

that is out of specification, appropriate corrective action is performed.

4. M AINTENANCE 

### P LAN



### Resolute Natural Resources Company, LLC utilizes a Rotating Equipment Engineer to

assess ongoing reliability improvements, including oversight of the following ite ms:

• Periodic maintenance that will be performed on the equipment.

• Predictive maintenance that is to be done on the equipment.

• Equipment life cycle

• Overhaul schedule

• Spare parts inventory

Attachment A

- 1 o f this O&M Plan contains specific tasks that comprise the Life Cycle

Maintenance Plan for the primary facility compressors Aerial C

- 5, HOS

- 4, and HOS

- 6

. The Life Cycle Maintenance Plan includes p erio dic m aintenance, predictive

maintenance, e quipment l ife c ycle and o verhaul s chedules which describes the various

levels of maintenance for the primary plant compressors

.

The Acid Gas A compressor is mentioned in the maintenance plan, but is not addressed

in Life Cycle Maintenance Plan in Attachment A

- 1 o f this O&M Plan because it is non

functioning

, and remains at the plant as a source of spare parts for the Acid Gas B

compressor.

The Acid Gas B compressor is also included in the maintenance plan, but is also not

addressed in Life Cycle Maintenance Plan in Attachment A

- 1 o f this O&M Plan because

it is only capable of handling 1.6 million cubic feet per day ( MMCF/day ) and was never

intended to be part of the pri mary process train at the facility.

4.1 Periodic Maintenance

Periodic mainten ance begins with daily inspections of the compressors, which are performed by the Plant Operator and in addition to monitoring process parameters

and plant mechanics the following dai ly equipment checks are made:

• The compressor piping, inter stage coolers and block valves and

compression valves are inspected for fluid leaks ;O perations & Maintenance Plan

McElmo Creek Unit Oil Production Facility

PSD Permit No. NU 05

- 01, Appendix A

September 2016

Page 5 of 9 

### • Oil and water levels are monitored ;

• Vibration levels on the motors and compressor frames are monitored ; and

• General observations of physical conditions (i.e., unusual sounds) of the

compressor and electric motor are noted.

Additional periodic maintenance includes:

• Compressor performance analysis (Beta) ;

• Lube oil analysis data to determine the condition of the electric motor,

compressor and all of the auxi liary equipment;

• Foundations and equipment mounts are checked for cr acks and correct

make

- up torque;

• Compressor Piping is inspected for external damage ; and

• Corrosion coupons are pulled and monitored

.

Annual Inspections involve performing functional tests on the instrument and controls

systems. This includes testing safety devices, vibration probes, safety alarms and safety

shutdowns. There are periodic maintenance frequencies that extend past a year, such

as coolant replacement and lube oil replacement. The Rotating Equipment Engineer

decides if this work is required.

4.2 Predictive Maintenance

T he Rotating Equipment Engineer assesses predictive maintenance which involves

performing detailed inspections for internal wear. The inspections reveal the remaining

life of a compressor component. Some examples of the predictive maintenance include

inspecting the compressor main bearings, compressor cylinder and piston inspections,

electric motor winding/insulat ion inspection, crankshaft web deflections and electric

motor bearing inspection.

The results of predictive maintenance inspections are recorded, trended and used to

determine when the next major maintenance is due.

4.3 Equipment Life Cycle and Overhaul Schedule

The Rotating Equipment Engineer determines the life cycle for the compressors. This

life cycle information and the data taken during the predictive maintenance are used to

determine when the electric motor and compressor should be overhauled. An overhaul

involves opening up the machine and replacing all worn parts with new or refurbishedO perations & Maintenance Plan

September 2016

Page 6 of 9 

### parts. Overhauls can take up to one month or more to complete. The compressor is

restored as much as possible and another life cycle begins. The common practice i s to

hire additional contract mechanics to perform this work. Overhauls are recorded and all

of the data and measurements kept on file. These files are kept on site and with the

contractor that performed the work.

4.4 Life Cycle Maintenance Model

The section below provides a description of the type of activities planned for each Level.

Note Levels 5 and 6 are subject to the Risk Based Work Selection process prior to

committing to the work. The Risk Based Work Selection process is based on earlier and

ongoing data obtained and analyzed during the maintenance cycles.

LEVEL 1

Compressor Starting S equence

Warning : Ensure that all personnel are clear and motor starter, near free of the electrical power supply

system components immediately prior to starting motor. In particular do not stand in front of motor

transformer or under aerial fuses. A minimum distance of 25 feet should be maintained for unqualified

personnel.

Rationale: Across the line motor starting creates approximately 6X full load current. Consequently the

electrical system is stressed during starting and the probability of failure is greater.

CAUTION After 2 unsuccessful starts; the compressor motor starter will trip a time delay in the MCC

building and prevent you from restarting the compressor. Verify the time delay duration in

the MCC building.

2.2.3 Verify that the compressor oil pressure is above 35 psig.

2.2.3 When the compressor starts ups, the suction shutdown valve should open

automatically and the indicator will show open
