About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the well drilling bond actually guarantees

A well drilling, operation, and production bond is a compliance-and-public-protection guarantee. The City of Oklahoma City wants a financial backstop that wells are drilled, operated, and ultimately plugged in line with City requirements — and that the City and the public are protected against damage to streets, utilities, and property from the work.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the City of Oklahoma City (the obligee), with the public as the protected party. If you violate the permit conditions or damage City property and don't make it right, the City can recover against the $25,000 bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Operators who follow the permit and restore any disturbed property treat the bond as a license formality, not a risk.
