The bond protects the state and the public from environmental damage and financial loss if the operator abandons the project or fails to properly restore the site.
Any individual or business entity planning to drill, deepen, or rework an oil or gas well in the state of Oregon typically needs this bond. This includes independent energy companies, drilling contractors, and corporate well operators. You must secure this bond prior to receiving your final drilling permit from the state regulatory agency.
The state of Oregon requires this bond to protect the environment and local communities from potential hazards associated with oil and gas extraction. It provides a dedicated source of funds to safely plug abandoned wells and reclaim the land if the drilling operator goes out of business or violates environmental standards.
