About :The Colorado Energy & Carbon Management Commission (ECMC) regulates the development and production of Colorado's natural resources, including oil and gas, geothermal energy, and carbon capture and storage. The ECMC's mission is to do so in a way that protects the environment, public health, safety, and welfare.
The Engineering Unit ensures oil and gas development complies with professional engineering standards and the Energy and Carbon Management Commission's (ECMC) rules and regulations. This ensures groundwater protection during oil and gas well drilling and completions and environmental protection during production operations. The Engineering Unit administers the delegated United States Environmental Protection Agencies Class II Underground Injection Control program for the responsible disposal of exploration and production waste.
The Flowline and Facility Integrity Team in the Engineering Unit oversees the integrity of on and off location flowlines (including mapping) and production equipment such as tanks to prevent spills and releases. The Flowline and Facility Integrity Team collaborates often with other ECMC groups, such as the Environmental Unit, on inspecting instances of integrity failure and reviewing root cause of spills and releases and preventative measures the operator will undertake to prevent failure reoccurrence. ECMC has established rigorous protective standards for installing, registering, monitoring, and operating on and off location flowlines and the Flowline and Facility Integrity Team is responsible for ensuring those standards are met. The Flowline and Facility Integrity Team provides regulatory oversight from inception to abandonment.
