GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL: This form is designed for submitting a complete and accurate geothermal well completion report, and must be accompanied

initial production test. The BLM may postpone the required report submittal date if adequate justification is presented by the lessee.

coordinates from the surface location if the well is directionally drilled.
Item 34: If the well is immediately placed into operation without testing, this section should reflect the first month's production data.
Items 35 & 36: Indicate the depth(s) of subsurface pressure, temperature measurement, and include the reference datum.
