Current through Supplement No. 392, April, 2024

This chapter pertains to the geological storage of hydrogen and produced oil or gas with little to no processing involved. If the rules differ from federal requirements on federally regulated storage facilities, the federal rules take precedence. The storage facility operator shall provide sufficient documentation to the director confirming the storage facility is federally operated. Applications filed with the commission proposing to inject gas for the purposes of enhanced oil or gas recovery will be processed under chapter 43-02-05. This chapter does not apply to class III injection wells used to create a salt cavern. Applications for class III wells are under the jurisdiction of the state geologist pursuant to 43-02-02.1. The commission may grant exceptions to this chapter, after due notice and hearing, when such exceptions will result in the prevention of waste and operate in a manner to protect correlative rights.
