Western Canada Pipeline Construction Detail

Pipeline permits include gathering or transport pipelines of a liquid, gas or oil through a system of pipes. In addition to these main types of pipelines, there are also four other sub-categories of pipelines: Gathering Lines, Feeder Lines, Transmission Pipelines and Distribution Pipelines. The permits represent all types of pipelines. This section shows pipeline permits that have a new construction component. (Pipeline Construction Western Canada June 20, 2022 report date )

Petroleum pipelines transport oil, oil products and natural gas. In addition to these two main types of pipelines, there are also four other sub-categories of pipelines: Gathering Lines, Feeder Lines, Transmission Pipelines and Distribution Pipelines. The permits represent all types of pipelines.

Pipeline Project Details

ASPENLEAF ENERGY LIMITED.- Permit #63,091- 6.10KM – Satellite to satellite

Aspenleaf Energy Limited is a private oil and gas exploration and production company that is pursuing an acquisition and exploitation strategy in western Canada. The company is focused on light oil and liquids-rich gas opportunities and is led by a team of seasoned industry professionals with extensive acquisition and operations experience.

Spirit River Formation contains important gas reservoirs in Alberta’s Deep Basin. The productive Falher Member consists of non-marine clastics and coals south of the Elmworth field. The Spirit River Formation is a stratigraphical unit of middle Albian age in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin. It takes the name from the Spirit River, and was first described in Imperial Oil Spirit River No. 1 well by Badgley in 1952.


CNRL – #29,574 – 3.06KM – Battery to battery – Cold Lake

Primrose and Wolf Lake (PAW) Project. The PAW Project consists of thermal in situ oil sands developments which include the Wolf Lake CPF and field production facilities (Townships 65 and 66, Ranges 5 and 6, W4M); the Primrose South and North Steam areas (Townships 67 and 68, Ranges 4 and 5, W4M, which includes the Primrose South and North steam plants and field production facilities) and the Primrose East area (Townships 67 and 68, Ranges 2 and 3, W4M), which includes the Primrose East steam plant, the Burnt Lake Pilot Plant and field production facilities (all located entirely within the Cold Lake Air Weapons Range). 

Clearwater formation at Canadian Natural’s Wolf Lake and Primrose (North, South, and East) fields. In the Cold Lake deposits, our Primrose operations currently produce from the Clearwater reservoir using the cyclic steam stimulation (CSS) process. CSS uses a single well bore to inject and produce steam. This technology has been historically applied to reservoirs that have barriers to vertical flow. The production peaks and troughs at Primrose are a reflection of the cyclic steam process – the peaks are associated with production cycles from newer, less mature wells and the troughs are associated with production cycles from the more mature areas in the field.


KARVE ENERGY INC..- #58,220 – 1.24KM -Satellite to satellite – Veteran

VIKING OIL FOCUSED
This oil bearing formation continues to be expanded with advancements in horizontal drilling and completions technologies.

OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE
With direct Viking experience, our team is building on recent success to enhance the opportunity from Karve’s land base in the Consort and Hamilton Lake areas.

The Viking is an established oil play that has produced oil and gas from conventional reservoirs since the 1950’s. From a geological point of view, the play has been delineated by more than 8,000 vertical wells. This is a low risk light oil resource style play with a large amount of original oil in place that is second only to the Cardium and has one of the lowest recoveries estimated at ~4%. The formation covers a large part of western Canada and extends over most of Saskatchewan. It is mostly gas bearing with oil production restricted to west-central Saskatchewan in the Kindersley-Dodsland area.


PEYTO EXPLORATION & DEVELOPMENT CORP – #59,172- 6.18 KM – Pipeline to pipeline – Pinedale

Peyto Exploration & Development Corp. was founded in 1998 with a strategy to enhance shareholder value through the exploration, discovery and low cost development of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin. 

The company chose the sweet gas bearing, sandstone resource plays within Alberta’s Deep Basin as its resource platform.
