About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the salt water tank battery bond covers

Producing oil and gas wells bring up large volumes of salt water (produced water/brine) along with the hydrocarbons. That fluid is collected at the surface in a tank battery before it is hauled or piped to disposal. The Oklahoma Corporation Commission treats salt water as a deleterious substance it must keep out of fresh water and soil.

Under Title 52 the Corporation Commission's Oil and Gas Conservation Division has exclusive jurisdiction over the handling, storage, and disposition of salt water and other deleterious substances produced in connection with oil and gas operations. It conditions certain lease activity on a $10,000 performance bond standing behind that handling.

The bond guarantees the operator's compliance with the Commission's rules for the salt water tank battery on the lease — proper handling and the cleanup obligations that go with it. It is a three-party guarantee: if the surety pays, the operator repays the surety. We issue the $10,000 bond at a flat 3% with one soft credit pull.

Title 52, §139 (Corporation Commission — deleterious substances)Under 52 O.S. §139, the Oklahoma Corporation Commission has exclusive jurisdiction to make and enforce rules governing the handling, storage, and disposition of salt water, mineral brines, waste oil, and other deleterious substances produced from oil and gas wells. The Commission's Oil and Gas Conservation Division conditions certain lease activity on a $10,000 salt water tank battery lease performance bond. Confirm the requirement on your Commission filing — the standard amount is $10,000.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

Do I pay the $10,000? +
No. You pay $300 — the flat 3% of the bond amount. The $10,000 is the surety's maximum liability to the Corporation Commission; it is not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
Who requires this bond? +
The Oklahoma Corporation Commission's Oil and Gas Conservation Division, which has exclusive jurisdiction over salt water and other deleterious substances from oil and gas operations under Title 52.
What does the bond guarantee? +
The operator’s compliance with the Commission’s rules for handling the produced salt water at the tank battery on the lease, including the cleanup obligations that go with it. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety.
Is there a credit check? +
Yes — one soft credit pull, which never affects your score. It is the only extra step beyond the application, and it informs approval, not price. The rate is a flat 3% either way.
When does it renew? +
Terms run 1, 2, or 3 years — your choice at purchase. You'll get renewal notices 60 and 30 days before expiration, with autopay available, and the bond must stay active for your Commission filing to stay valid.
