Notes:¶

Raw, unfiltered data: This weekly report summarizes the disclosures that were published in FracFocus over the past 7 days. This report reflects raw names and numbers that have not yet been checked for validity. To see cleaned data set for earlier dates, go to the Open-FF data catalog or at CodeOcean.

... by top Operators¶

Operator list for all disclosures¶

... "Federal wells" or "Indian wells"¶

 -- 25%:  9,343,431 gallons
 -- 50%:  14,734,986 gallons
 -- 75%:  19,897,731 gallons
 -- max:  47,201,952 gallons

Recognized Chemicals of Concern used in these disclosures¶

The following table is based on lists of chemicals that have health or environmental effects: SDWA, CWA, Proposition 65, TEDX, T3DB.

Column	Description
CID	is the chemical ID used in the disclosure table
bgCAS	is the CAS registration number of the chemical
record_count	indicates the number of records in this week's disclosures. A given chemical may appear more than once in a disclosure
Chemical Name	is one of the common names for the material
max mass	is the single greatest mass of the chemical in this week's disclosures (in pounds)
SDWA CWA	indicates if the chemical is on the Safe Drinking Water Act list or the Clean Water Act list (compiled by the Wylie Lab)
CA Prop 65	indicates if the chemical is on California's Proposition 65 list
TEDX	indicates if the chemical is on The Endocrine Disruption Exchange list
WE Hormone	indicates if the chemical is on the Well Explorer Hormone Pathway list (a subset of T3DB)
T3DB	indicates if the chemical is on the T3DB list
FF history	link to summary of this chemical for all of FracFocus (filtered data - up to last major update)
ChemID link	link to the ChemID website for this chemical
T3DB link	link to the T3DB website for this chemical

Proprietary labeling¶

FracFocus allows disclosures to hide the identity of chemicals that companies claim are business secrets. This practice has been controversial since the beginning of FracFocus and there have been purported measures taken to reduce the proprietary claims. Nevertheless, they are still commonly used. The following summarizes how much the past week's disclosures hid chemical identity with these claims. The individual disclosure listing later in this report specifies the percentage of chemical records that are hidden by these claims for every disclosure.

Open-FF detects proprietary claims solely by the terms used in the CASNumber field. Other fields may also indicate such claims but are ignored here, so these numbers are conservative.

Ingredient names used for proprietary records for this week's disclosures¶

In some cases, companies do not report the PercentHFJob or report 0.0% for proprietary records. We use 0 pounds for those records in the following table.

Notes:¶

Listing of chemicals in individual disclosures: In the table below, individual fracking disclosures are identified by APINumber. If you are interested in seeing the details of the raw data, use that APINumber at the FracFocus "Find a Well" site. That search site will serve pdf files of individual fracking events to your computer with most of the same raw data available used here. However, mass of chemicals is not available from these pdfs.

Maps: In the table below, a link is provided to a Google map/satellite view of the location provided in the disclosure. Many recently published fracking sites are newer than the satellite image that Google uses, so the well pad may not be visible. However, you can still view the geographic context of the drilling site.

Listing of all new disclosures published this week¶

Color coding of cells indicates conditions of particular concern:

FID - Fracking job ID number (not used yet)
Water volume - volume in gallons of the water base fluid used in a fracking job
- light blue: especially large fracking carrier (>30 million gallons)
- red: no data or a report of ZERO gallons of water. This prevents the calculation of chemical mass
TVD - True vertical depth (feet)
- red: no data or a report of ZERO feet.
- yellow: likely error: deeper than deepest oil well (35,050 ft.)
Percent proprietary - proportion of chemical records for which identity is hidden
- light pink: at least 10%
- pink: at least 25%
- red: at least 50%
End date - Last day of job
- tan: more than one year to publish the disclosure
- brown: more than two years to publish the disclosure
Total percentage ("perc sum") - the sum of all records in a disclosure should be 100% (within a tolerance)
- yellow: less than 90%
- orange: greater than 110% - often caused by a "system approach" entry error: duplicates of some chemical records
CIDs in disclosure - see the Chemicals of Concern table above for more information
