LOS ANGELES -- State officials announced Thursday that the broken natural gas storage well that has been leaking tens of thousands of metric tons of methane gas for months has been permanently sealed.

After independently reviewing multiple tests on the leaking well -- including temperature tests, noise tests and cement-bond test -- we have confirmed that the Standard Sesnon 25 well at the Aliso Canyon Storage Field is no longer leaking and the well is sealed, said Jason Marshall, chief deputy director of the California Department of Conservation (DOC), the agency that houses the Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR) that has overseen the well sealing effort.
