6 The lifetime requirement of the temporary pipeline for the Aquifer Pump-Off (APO) facility is not identified. One of the options selected proposes the use of Shallow Water-well Disposal of potentially sour APO water. Some of the APO systems- eg: the temporary portion involving 3 APO wells- will be exposed to H2S of varying concentrations and may be vulnerable. However the project has demonstrated the ability to deploy HEMP in all other aspects and has indicated the intention of applying it to this issue. Recommendation: Project to confirm that the planned HEMP study will fully address the issue of sour water disposal in Shallow Wells and the permitting associated with this option HSE MS Audit Learnings
