Wyoming's Oil and Gas Conservation Commission derives its bonding authority from W.S. § 30-5-104, and sets bonding requirements — including idle-well bonding — by Commission rule (the WOGCC Rules, Chapter 3, governing plugging, abandonment, and bonding). The Commission sets the penal sum; a blanket bond for multiple wells is commonly $100,000, with additional amounts where the Commission deems them necessary. Confirm your required amount on your Commission notice or order.
