053-5 Wyo. Code R. §§ 5-3 - Footings and Locations
(a) Foundation
bases shall be of the appropriate size for well servicing units in operation on
the location and shall be graded and drained. Location sites shall be made and
maintained to a grade so that oil, substance from oil, water or other movable
fluid will drain from working area. Such foundation bases shall be the
responsibility of the well owner or operator.
(b) Footing shall be used as required by the
existing conditions to provide a table base for the rig up, including mast
erection, to support the mast during the most extreme load that will be
encountered, and for pipe racking.
(c) If supplemental footing is used, it must
be such that the safe bearing capacity of the soil on location is not exceeded
and will carry the most extreme load. Supplemental footing is a foundation base
other than cement or solid rock.
(d) Figures 1, 2, and 3, taken in part
from API Standard 4E for Drilling and Well Servicing
Structures, shall be used as a reference in preparing locations and
repairing existing locations that are sub-standard.
