Fracing Stage 42 on the Lemley 1H

During 2.0 lb 100 Mesh on stage 42 on the 1H the turbine caught fire internally. A loud noise was heard from inside the data van, and smoke was seen coming from the turbine. All equipment was immediately shut down. Power Generation also called to shutdown. At this point flames were seen coming from the exhaust of the turbine. Gas supply was shut in, and the 1H and 3H wells were shut in. All nonessential personnel were sent to the muster area, and the onsite NNE consultant called 911 and NNE management. The fire was contained inside the turbine structure, and some small spot fires were visible on the containment from leaking oil. The fire suppression system inside the turbine actuated and smothered the fire internally. The small spot fires were controlled with fire extinguishers. Once the fire department arrived, the fire had already been suppressed. Once the turbine structure cooled to 100 deg F, the fire department opened the turbine doors to confirm the fire was completely out.

Truck Driver

Tractor and Trailer hauling telehandler off site did not adhere to “no left turns” sign and turned left onto Rt 7. A rock truck came around the turn on Rt. 7 from the left having to brake excessively to keep from causing an accident. No injuries or damages reported.

Around 9:20am, a lowboy with large equipment was turning left out of the Boggess well pad entrance. As the lowboy was turning out, a stone truck was traveling north on Rt 7 and when they came around the corner they had to slam on their brakes and came close to impacting the lowboy. Mike was 2 trucks behind the stone truck and had to slam on his brakes as well to avoid an accident. Mike relayed that there were no impacts or injuries at all.

Drill Out Ops - Completed sweep at PBTD, Beginning trip out

Night shift had drilled all 59 plugs. Pulled and layed down Jt 635. Made up Jt 634 on the swivel to begin the surface to surface sweep while working the PH6 work string. At this point the saver sub and joint 634 seperated. The mud pump was SD and the pipe ram on the BOP's was shut. The WS fell and lodged into the annular bag which in return damaged the bag. Once everone was asked if they were OK the snubbers screwed a pup jt into the WS and pulled it back into the heavy slips and made up the kelly line to a Pump In Sub/TIW valve on joint 634 and continued the surface to surface sweep. Once the STS was completed we pulled Jt 634 and put it out of service.

Working 2nd from last joint up from bottom when the saver sub at the swivel blew apart from the work string joint on upstroke

unload roller truck holding two upright clean harbors tanks.

While pulling the two Clean harbors tanks off of the roller truck to stage at the Kassay Pad, the operators(Chris Wayne, Jake Fields, and Donnie Shamblin) chained both tanks together to pull them off of the truck. The front tank began to slide to the right and fell uncontrolled to the ground off of the truck damaging the top of the tank and the valve assembly at the bottom.

Rigging down water transfer after drillout operations concluded.

Jeff Wilson had suspicion that Jessie Botti, an SES employee, was under the influence of something based on a conversation and observing his actions, so he called the employee's supervisor to determine. The supervisor had reasonable suspicion that he was under the influence and took him for a drug screen. The employee had a BAC of 0.23 (legal limit is 0.08) and was immediately terminated.

"This morning on Mepco I arrived on location and had a boy from Select approach me and started asking me questions about his work for the day. He didn't seem quite right so I kept an eye on him . He seemed like he was having trouble holding his train of thought. When he would bend over he would lose his balance and have to catch himself.
I contacted Cassey and told him I didn't want to accuse the boy of being under the influence of anything not knowing the boy. I asked Cassey to send someone to location that knew him to just have a conversation with him and get their opinion. Another boy showed up and I explained to him not to ask if he had been doing anything or accuse him of anything but just get him in a truck and talk to him. After 5 min the boy came to me and said that he believed he was under the influence of something and that they were taking him for drug screen. He said the boy was having some difficulty speaking and when he was asked to fill out JSA he couldn't write. The boy left with him and they were meeting Cassey and cassey was taking him for drug screen."

Moving center tub out away from the rig.

Charles (Night Tool Pusher) was operating the John Deere front loader to move the center tub away from the rig to pull the HCR off the mud cross. Placed forks underneath the center tub on ODS of the rig. While backing up the front steer tires transitioned from the matting boards to the cellar plates. Deflecting the cellar plates the forks tilted down and slid the center tub off. Tub slid down and pushed the corner of the rig mats into the 5H cage. The impact moved the cellar cage 2' contacting the 2" casing pressure line. Pulled the threads off the 2"nipple between the valve and elbow releasing ~600 psi of pressure. Charles immediately moved the fiberglass cellar cover and closed the valve.

While moving the center tub my forks tilted forward after driving onto the cellar plate. Causing the tub to slide off the forks and push the matting boards into the cellar cage. I heard a hissing noise and immediately moved the grating and closed the 2" valve in the cellar.

After loading the Strad upright tanks to be taken back to the Strad yard

After loading the Strad upright tanks to be taken back to the Strad yard, one of the trucks struck a low phone line along route 7. The pilot car noticed the low line and tried to notify the driver(Jamie Jones 304-488-6978) but the driver never heard the notification and continued through snagging the line and breaking it. Immedietley afterwards Timothy James notified his HSE, the Utility company, and myself.

At approximately 1600 PM on 4/9/17, Best Line Equipment rentals was delivering a tele-handler to the Kassay Pad. The driver, Justin, had lowered his drop trailer and unloaded the tele-handler. Justin then attempted to raise his drop trailer. He then noticed the trailer was not working and had released approximately 15-20 gallons of hydraulic fluid onto the Kassay pad. The roustabout also noticed it at the same time and put a duck pond under the trailer. The roustabout continued to contain the hydraulic fluid and the driver reported it to me. We immediately contained with peat moss and began to dig up the fluid and put it a waste dumpster. We have contacted Max with NGE to evaluate the material and the cleanup. I have attached before pictures and we will follow up with after pictures when we can.

Non- Hazardous Release (Hydraulic oil approximately 15-20 gallons)
73 Degs, Clear and sunny no wind
Was placed in a Waste Container.
Pad was dry at the time of release.

While pressure testing for stage 20 on the Kassay 7H a wing ? on the back of one of the pumps failed catastrophically. Test pressure was 10,657 psig at the time of failure. No one was in the red zone during the incident.

I received a complaint from Dave Dillie on July 3,2017. He alleges NNE has caused the floor in his trailer to start to wave, He said he checked the frame, where he could access it with the level, but agreed the frame was level. The allegations started that by drilling under it we changed the water table, which then caused the trailer to settle. After further discussion and the talking through the process of drilling, he claimed it was the sand truck traffic beating on the ground that caused the trailer to settle. I told him I would discuss it with the office and we would get back to him. 7-6-2017 I went out to look at the fence that we needed to reinstall and his daughter asked what we had decided on the trailer. I told her the issue was still being discussed and we would get back to them. Mrs, Dillies cell phone #304-692-5613

A tandem from Lightening trucking was unloading the compressor off the bed, the bridal didn't have enough slack in it so it came off the ear of the skid. When it did the radiator of the compressor was bent. No one was in the red zone and no other equipment was damaged.
