Repeated non-compliance results in energy regulator shutting down northern Alberta oil and gas facility
“Under the order, the facility and its associated infrastructure are to be shut in, which means Everest is required to safely stop production and stop operating. In addition, the AER has directed the Orphan Well Association to provide immediate care over the sites and confirm that the facility has been closed or shut down by March 18, 2023,” the statements reads.
Multiple reports and remedy proposals, including a groundwater monitoring program proposal and a groundwater monitoring thermal report were deemed “deficient” by AER. The following week, on March 1, Everest leadership told the AER the company would be shutting in its McKay facility, essentially stopping all productions and operations.
An AER staff member visited the site that day and confirmed “the McKay facility was being shut-in and there was reduced protection from the freezing temperatures,” the report read.Article content
