How Does a Ventura County Oil and Gas Bond Work? 

An oil and gas bond creates a legal contract between these three parties: 

  1. Principal: You, the oil and gas exploration and production facilities filing the bond
  2. Obligee: The County of Ventura Resource Management Agency, Planning Division requiring the bond
  3. Surety: The provider issuing the bond

This holds you financially responsible for upholding all permit regulations and performing safe well drilling. 

If you break the bond terms, harmed parties can file claims. The surety will pay valid claims up to the bond amount, but you must ultimately refund the surety. 

How Do I Renew My Bond?

These bonds expire annually. To renew your oil and gas bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted.

We’ll begin contacting you by phone and email 90 days before the expiration date. You must maintain a bond until officially released by the county.
