When prices rise, wells get put back into service.

Stripper wells, went taken out of service typically will never come back.

If the production is stopped beyond a certain time, it has to be plugged with concrete.

Given the low production rate, if prices rise, nobody will spend the money redrilling a known very low producer.

Why does the EPA require wells be plugged when not in service?
