N.M. Admin. Code § 19.15.19.8 - METHOD OF DETERMINING GAS WELL POTENTIAL
A. An operator shall conduct tests to
determine the daily open flow potential volumes of gas wells from which gas is
being used or marketed. The operator shall report the tests on
division-prescribed forms within 60 days after
(1) the date of the well's initial connection
to a gas transportation facility; and
(2) the date of reconnection following
workover.
B. To establish
comparable open flow capacity, the operator shall test wells in accordance with
the division's Manual for back-pressure testing of natural gas wells. If the
division approves the alternate method for testing, the operator shall test all
wells producing from a common source of supply in a uniform and comparable
manner.
C. The operator of a gas
well that is not connected to a gas gathering facility shall test the well
within 30 days following a christmas tree's installation. The operator shall
take the tests in accordance with the procedure for testing unconnected gas
well contained in the division's manual for back-pressure testing of
natural gas wells. The operator shall report the tests on form C-122
in compliance with
19.15.7.31 NMAC and file it within
10 days following the test's completion.
