Oil and gas: trade secrets.

Abstract

Existing law provides that the Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR) in the Department of Conservation regulates the drilling, operation, maintenance, and abandonment of oil and gas wells in the state. The State Oil and Gas Supervisor supervises the drilling, operation, maintenance, and abandonment of wells and the operation, maintenance, and removal or abandonment of tanks and facilities related to oil and gas production within an oil and gas field regarding safety and environmental damage. Existing law also requires an operator of a well, before commencing the work of drilling the well, to obtain approval from the State Oil and Gas Supervisor or a district deputy. Under existing law, the Uniform Trade Secrets Act (act) establishes specified rights and remedies for the misappropriation of a trade secret. This bill would require the division to regulate oil and gas operations in conformance with the provisions of the act.
