5.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING ENVIRONMENT
5.1 Natural environment
The northern Perth Basin has a Mediterranean-type climate characterised by seasonal patterns of hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters. The area is subject to high wind speeds, dust storms, lightning storms, high summer temperatures and low winter night temperatures.
Annual rainfall averages approximately 465 mm near the coast but tapers off to around 335 mm 100 km inland. Generally 55% of annual rainfall occurs between April and September with the wetter months being June and July.
The soils consist of calcareous and siliceous sand underlain by aeolianite, which is often exposed. The northern Perth Basin is situated entirely within the Geraldton Sandplains Biogeographical Region. Within this region, three broad physiographical units are recognised; the Swan Coastal Plain, the Arrowsmith Region and the Dandaragan Plateau. The areas in which WIA will be undertaken will generally be located entirely within the Swan Coastal Plain unit, which forms an elongated strip approximately 40 km wide running along the coast.
Groundwater and surface water drainage is westward but the Irwin River valley to the north of the region is the only major coordinated drainage indentation. A number of swamps surrounded by dense scrub, frequent limestone outcrops and the occasional laterite outcrop are the other major features in the region. The sub-surface geology of the area consists of the Late Jurassic Yarragadee Formation, which is overlain by Tertiary sediments. Groundwater is present in the Tertiary sediments and the Yarragadee Formation, and the groundwater level is near, or at surface in the aforementioned swamps and low lying areas, following the surface topography, but with lower relief.
The northern Perth Basin is located within the Irwin Botanical District (Northern Sandplains Region), within the Southwest Botanical Province as defined by Beard (1976). Under the Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation for Australia (IBRA) (Environment Australia 2000), the area lies on the Geraldton Sandplain, which is described as ‘mainly proteaceous scrub-heaths, rich in endemics, on the sandy earths of an extensive, undulating, lateritic sandplain mantling Permian to Cretaceous strata’.
5.2 Lake Logue Nature Reserve
The Woodada-14 well site is located within of the Lake Logue Nature Reserve in Production Licence L5 area. Lake Logue is the largest feature of the Lake Logue-Indoon System, which includes a number of shallow seasonal wetlands and intermittent creeks and drainage lines. Lake Logue has a surface area of 425 hectares and fills only occasionally, following heavy rain in the catchment. The lake is fed by fresh surface water and has been known to reach a depth of over two metres. When dry, approximately three quarters of its bed is covered by low grasses and shrubs while the remainder is wooded (DEC 2009).
Dieback is known to occur in permit areas L4 and L5. Phytopthora cinnamomi, the most destructive species, is known to occur over a large area in Eneabba Creek and Lake Logue and at several small sites along the Leeman and Erindoon Roads.
W-14 Bridge Plug Remediation Environmental Bridging Document
HSE-E-105 Page 8 of 21
Prior to mobilising any equipment into the Woodada Gas Field or within a nature reserve, dieback hygiene measures will be implemented in accordance with the WIA Biosecurity Procedure (HSE-E-PR-051).
Note: as the field is currently under care and maintenance a hygiene station would not be established on site, instead equipment and vehicles must clean-down off site prior to mobilisation.
5.3 Social environment
The surroundings are populated region with limited settlement, transport or communications infrastructure. The townships of Dongara/Port Denison, Mingenew and Eneabba are the largest population centres in the vicinity of the proposal.
The region is relatively undeveloped, comprising of small coastal settlements that are economically dependent on fishing, agriculture, tourism, mining and natural gas/oil production. Dongara/Port Denison is a rock lobster fishing port.
Land use within the surrounding region is pastoral, consisting of wheat, sheep and cattle farming. The bushland areas of the region support seasonal honey production and commercial wildflower harvesting.
5.4 Summary of environmental sensitivities
A description of the existing natural and socio-economic environment within Production Licence L5 area is included above. Table 1 presents a summary of the receiving environment surrounding the Woodada-14 well location.
Table 1 Description of receiving environment
Aspect Description
Geomorphology Macroscale irregular perched claypan within the Tamala Limestone of the Spearwood Dune System, situated in the sumpland of an inter-dune swale of aeolian sands from broadly undulating, Pleistocene upland karst.
Hydrology Inflow via Eneabba, Erindoon and Bindoon Creeks, and from overflow from Weelawadgi Lake and the chain of wetlands to the north. Catchments extensively cleared. Drainage occurs through percolation into superficial sediments of the karst system. Water is lost rapidly through evaporation.
Water Quality Fresh to increasingly brackish as the lake dries out (subhaline).
Benthic Vegetation Alga species Lamprothamnium papulosum.
Littoral Vegetation Casuarina obesa, Melaleuca strobophylla and M. rhaphiophylla.

6.0 DESCRIPTION OF THE ACTIVITY
6.1 Background
Gas wells that are no longer in production are suspended prior to being decommissioned. Suspending a gas well involves performing a series of procedures to ensure that the well poses no risk to the public and environment while it is inactive. Suspended wells are routinely pressure monitored on a six-monthly basis until they are fully decommissioned. If monitoring results are not as expected, then further investigation is undertaken to better understand the results and determine if remedial action is required.
Woodada-14 was drilled in September 1994 to 2,198 m MDRT (side-tracked) and then suspended. The well bore was isolated from the reservoir by placing a cement plug from 2,129.5 – 2,134 m MDRT and a 140 mm (5 1/2”) EZSV Cast Iron Bridge Plug was set at 2,124 m MDRT.
Recently, a change in pressure readings observed during the routine Well Pressure Survey indicated that low pressure gas from the depleted reservoir was slowly entering (20-30 psi) the well bore. Testing also confirmed that the integrity of the well head and well casing is intact and that there is no environmental or safety risk.
The primary objective of this operation is to:
• Remediate the bridge plug by placing 30 m of cement on top; and • Conduct subsequent pressure tests to ensure the additional cement plug is
effective.
6.2 Summary of activity
A truck mounted wireline workover unit and related AWE WIA equipment will be utilised to undertake the following activity, which is planned to occur during July 2016: The work will be conducted during daylight hours over a 2-3 day period.
1. Shoot sonologs
2. Mobilise wireline unit, rig up and pressure test.
3. Drift cased hole and tag current bridge plug
4. Install at least 30 m of cement on top of plug. Wait on Cement.
5. Fill well bore with inhibited brine.
6. Pressure test cement plug.
7. Upon successful pressure test, top up well bore with inhibited brine (if required)
8. Rig down and de-mobilise wireline. Secure site.
The WIA program will be managed in accordance with the commitments outlined in the Onshore North Perth Basin Well Intervention Activities Environment Plan (EP) [HSE-E-075]. For the purposed Woodada-14 WIA; there are no additional risks or impacts above or beyond the accepted EP [HSE-E-75] issued December 16 2013.
Refer to Attachment 1 – Well Schematic.

HSE-E-105 Page 11 of 21
6.3 Site preparation and earthwork
No clearing is anticipated as part of the site preparation activities. Site preparation and earthworks are required to install a portable bunded chemical storage area with the following specific details.
• A PIG® Lease Liner (polypropylene composite) (Liner thickness: 97 mil = 2.54mm) (maximum infiltration rate: 10-9 m/s) would be in place for Woodada-14 well and used as a means of secondary containment for the returned fluids expected as part of the well suspension activity and chemical storage. The PIG® Lease Liner is four times more puncture resistant than commonly used HDPE liners, and its nonslip surface helps prevent slips and falls. The liner is a three layer polypropylene composite consists of three barrier films sandwiched by double layers of needle punched geotextile with heat fused surfaces.
• Returned fluids (not expected) will be stored within 280 bbl tanks (or similar) to provide sufficient capacity for the fluids. A tanker will remove fluid from the onsite storage to the disposal location as per Section 6.4.
• The WIA fluids will be mixed onsite within a water cart or storage vessel with secondary containment (PIG® Lease Liner) to capture any spillage should it occur. The chemicals will be stored within the portable bunded chemical storage as described above. The process of mixing chemicals on site will be supervised by onsite personnel.
• Liquid chemical products (i.e. lubricants) will be stored within bunded pallets or 20 ft internally bunded Dangerous Goods container designed to contain not less than 110% of the volume of the largest storage vessel.
6.4 Products, additives, chemicals and other substances disclosure
An objective of this Bridging Document is to disclose products, additives, chemicals and other substances required under the Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Resources (Environment) Regulations 2012.
AWE Limited confirms that all chemicals and substances have been accurately disclosed in Table 4 & 5 for its Woodada-14 bridge plug remediation program.
The Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) for the proposed chemicals are located within the well site in possession of the AWE Wellsite supervisor. Chemical and fluid transfer activities will be manned at all times.
6.5 Water disposal
Water disposal is not expected to be required as part of the proposed work. If for an unexpected reason water disposal is required, it will be disposed of either to an approved water disposal well (e.g. Eremia-04/Dongara WDW) or an approved evaporation pond (e.g. Hovea Evaporation Pond). If it is disposed into a well then hoses will be rigged up from the tanker to the well via a pump. It will then be pumped into the well. If water is to be disposed of at an evaporation pond then a hose will rigged up and water unloaded directly into the pond.
W-14 Bridge Plug Remediation Environmental Bridging Document
HSE-E-105 Page 12 of 21
Where fluid transfers occur (either between onsite storage tanks or into the evaporation pond/disposal well) a spill tray or secondary containment will be in place to capture any potential spillage during transfer.
6.6 Site rehabilitation
Rehabilitation of the Woodada-14 well site will be covered by a separate rehabilitation plan, developed in consultation with Department of Parks and Wildlife (DPaW), and will be completed after the well has been decommissioned.
6.7 Impacts and risks of activity
The risks and impacts associated with by the activity are assessed within Section 6.0 of the accepted EP [HSE-E-75] Rev E.

SECTION 11- TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Principle route of exposure: Eye or Skin contact, Inhalation.
Inhalation: This dry powder blend contains crystalline silica and quartz. Inhaled crystalline silica in
the form of quartz or cristobalite from occupational sources is carcinogenic to humans
(IARC, Group 1). There is sufficient evidence in experimental animals for the
carcinogenicity of tridymite (IARC, Group 2A).
This dry powder blend contains crystalline silica and quartz. Breathing silica dust may
cause irritation of the nose, throat and respiratory passages. Breathing silica may cause
noticeable injury or illness even through permanent lung damage may be occurring.
Inhalation of dust may also have serious chronic health effects (See “Chronic Effects /
Carcinogenicity” subsection below).
Skin Contact: Wet cement can dry skin and cause Alkali burns.
Eye Contact: Dust can irritate eyes.
Ingestion: No harmful affects known.
Medical conditions aggravated by exposure: Dermatitis
Chronic effects/ Carcinogenicity:
Silicosis: Excessive inhalation of respirable crystalline silica dust may
cause a progressive, disabling and sometime-fatal lung disease called
silicosis. Symptoms include cough, shortened of breath, wheezing, non-
specific chest illness, and reduced pulmonary function. This disease is
exacerbated by smoking. Individuals will silicosis are predisposed to
develop tuberculosis.
Cancer Status: The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC)
has determined that crystalline silica inhaled in the form of quartz or
crystallite from occupational sources can cause lung cancer in humans
(Group 1 – carcinogenic to humans) and has determined that there is
sufficient evidence in experimental animals for the carcinogenicity of
tridymite (Group 2A – possible carcinogen to humans). Refer to IARC
Monograph 68, Silica, Some Silicates and Organic Fibers (June 1997) in
conjunction with the use of these minerals. The National Toxicology
Program classifies respirable crystalline silica as “Known to be a human
carcinogen”. Refer to the 9th Report of Carcinogens (2000). The
American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH)
classifies crystalline silica, quartz, as a suspected human carcinogen
(A2).
There is some evidence that breathing respirable crystalline silica or the
disease silicosis is associated with an increased incidence of significant
endpoints such as acleroderma (an immune system disorder manifested
by scarring of the lungs, skin, and other internal organs) and kidney
disease.

Eye Low irritant. Contact may result in irritation, lacrimation, pain, redness, conjunctivitis and possiblecorneal damage.
Inhalation Low irritant. Over exposure may result in mucous membrane irritation of the respiratory tract, withcoughing. Some individuals are hypersensitive to sulphites, and may experience asthma likesymptoms (wheezing and shortness of breath) immediately following exposure.
Skin Low irritant. Contact may result in irritation, redness, rash and dermatitis.
Ingestion Low to moderate toxicity. Ingestion may result in gastrointestinal irritation, nausea and vomiting.Well tolerated due to the oxidation of sulphites in the body to sulphates, however with largequantities sulphurous acid is formed. Some individuals may have an allergic reaction. The acuteoral LD50 (male rat) is 3.56 g/kg/14 days.
Low to moderate toxicity. This product has the potential to cause adverse health effects with overexposure. Use safe work practices to avoid eye or skin contact and inhalation. Some individuals arehypersensitive to sulphites and may experience respiratory problems following exposure.

16. OTHER INFORMATION
RESPIRATORS: In general the use of respirators should be limited and engineering controlsemployed to avoid exposure. If respiratory equipment must be worn ensure correct respiratorselection and training is undertaken. Remember that some respirators may be extremelyuncomfortable when used for long periods. The use of air powered or air supplied respirators shouldbe considered where prolonged or repeated use is necessary.
WORKPLACE CONTROLS AND PRACTICES: Unless a less toxic chemical can be substituted for ahazardous substance, ENGINEERING CONTROLS are the most effective way of reducing exposure.The best protection is to enclose operations and/or provide local exhaust ventilation at the site ofchemical release. Isolating operations can also reduce exposure. Using respirators or protectiveequipment is less effective than the controls mentioned above, but is sometimes necessary.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT GUIDELINES:The recommendation for protective equipment contained within this ChemAlert report is provided asa guide only. Factors such as method of application, working environment, quantity used, productconcentration and the availability of engineering controls should be considered before final selectionof personal protective equipment is made.
