EMISSION INVENTORY SOURCE CATEGORY

METHOD SUMMARY

This methodology only includes documentation for the calculation of 1987 emissions from pseudo cyclic wells (CES 82222). Pseudo cyclic wells are only found in Kern County.

ACTIVITY DATA SOURCE: It was discussed in a 1986 meeting between Kern County APCD and ARB that certain wells should be treated as pseudo cyclic wells. It was assumed that each pseudo cyclic well would act like a steam drive well for half the time and as an injection well for the other half of the time.

EMISSION FACTOR SOURCE: The emission factor for steam drive wells is from a report by KVB, Inc., "Emission Characteristics of Crude Oil Production Operations in California" (January 1983). An injection well has an emission factor of zero.

TEMPORAL DATA:

The annual, weekly, and daily activities are uniform throughout the year, seven days a week, and twenty-four hours a day.

DATE OF THE LAST UPDATE: November 1986

GROWTH PARAMETER:

Dollar output for oil and gas extraction (SIC 13). (SJVUAPCD parameter is based on barrels of oil.)
