1.1 本指南提供了一种选择和实施程序的方法，以确定废弃井的位置。本指南介绍了在搜索这些位置时用作起点的方法。这并不是执行搜索程序的一个循序渐进的过程。 1.2 所述方法是过去在许多现场使用的方法。其他方法可能适用。通常，使用几种方法来获得可接受的井位确认。本指南不限于特定井。选择的方法应适合所搜索区域的大小和所定位的井类型。某些油井类型和施工材料可能会妨碍使用所述的任何方法进行检测。 1.3 本指南提供了有组织的信息收集或一系列选项，并不推荐具体的行动方案。 本指南不能取代教育和经验，应与专业判断结合使用。 1.4 本指南并非旨在解决勘探和现场安全的所有方面。本指南的用户有责任制定适当的安全和健康实践，并在使用前确定监管限制的适用性。 1.5 本指南提供了有组织的信息收集或一系列选项，并不推荐具体的行动方案。本文件不能取代教育或经验，应与专业判断一起使用。并非本指南的所有方面都适用于所有情况。本ASTM标准不代表或取代必须根据其判断给定专业服务的充分性的谨慎标准，也不应在不考虑项目的许多独特方面的情况下应用本文件。 本文件标题中的“标准”一词仅表示该文件已通过ASTM共识程序获得批准。 ====意义和用途====== 4.1 数以百万计的油气井、供水井以及为环境监测和修复目的而安装的油井已被废弃。需要根据安全和对环境的威胁来确定这些废弃井的位置。建造不当或废弃的水井可能会对人和动物造成安全威胁，可能是盐水和其他不需要的液体进入表面的来源，可能是将污染物从表面输送到基质的管道，或者可能会交叉污染地下含水层。所有州都不需要废弃油井的文件，也可能对废弃程序没有具体要求。

1.1 This guide provides an approach to selecting and implementing a program to identify the locations of abandoned wells. This guide provides descriptions of methods to be used as starting points in the search for these locations. It is not intended to be a step-by-step procedure to conduct the search program. 1.2 The described methods are approaches that have been used at many sites in the past. Other methods may be appropriate. Typically, several approaches are used to obtain acceptable confirmation of well locations. This guide is not limited to specific wells. The method chosen should be appropriate for the size of the area being searched and the type of well being located. Some well types and construction materials may preclude their detection by any of the methods described. 1.3 This guide offers an organized collection of information or series of options and does not recommend a specific course of action. This guide cannot replace education and experience and should be used in conjunction with professional judgment. 1.4 This guide does not purport to address all aspects of exploration and site safety. It is the responsibility of the user of this guide to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations before its use. 1.5 This guide offers an organized collection of information or a series of options and does not recommend a specific course of action. This document cannot replace education or experience and should be used in conjunction with professional judgment. Not all aspects of this guide may be applicable in all circumstances. This ASTM standard is not intended to represent or replace the standard of care by which the adequacy of a given professional services must be judged nor should this document be applied without consideration of a project’s many unique aspects. The word Standard in the title of this document means only that the document has been approved through the ASTM consensus process. ====== Significance And Use ====== 4.1 Millions of oil and gas wells, water supply wells, and wells installed for environmental monitoring and remediation purposes, have been abandoned. The need to determine the locations of these abandoned wells is based on safety and threats to the environment. Improperly constructed or abandoned wells may pose a safety threat to humans and animals, may be sources of brines and other undesirable fluids coming to the surface, may be conduits for transport of contamination from the surface to the substrate, or may cross-contaminate water-bearing zones in the subsurface. All states do not require documentation of the abandonment of wells and may not have specific requirements for abandonment procedures.
