Inside Access: All’s Well that Ends Well: Addressing End-of-Life Liabilities for Oil and Gas Wells
Conference Call with Benjamin Dachis, Associate Director, Research, C.D. Howe Institute and Blake Shaffer, Fellow-in-Residence, C.D. Howe Institute and PhD candidate, University of Calgary
The recent downturn in energy prices has shone a spotlight on the issue of cleaning up inactive oil and gas wells. In Alberta, mounting insolvencies have caused the number of “orphaned” wells to balloon from fewer than 100 to 3,200 in the past five years. With low energy prices, that list of wells risks growing longer. Join this call to hear about a potential two-part solution for reforming the province's well liability policies.
