Does the Energy Resources Conservation Board (ERCB) anticipate an increase in non-routine applications?
With the potential for more wellbores, more testing and additional infrastructure under an accelerated shallow development proposal, there is the potential for more conflicts resulting in non-routine ERCB applications. However with appropriate SRR implementation rules, compliance to the regulations, increased efforts by companies to plan and to coordinate multi-company development activites, and effective consultation, the ERCB believes conflict management issues should not change significantly. The expected ongoing success in the ADR process, supported by increases in ADR staff, will also assist in this regard.
