Well Abandonments & Site Restoration

With over 10 years of professional downhole abandonment experience and working with regulators, you can be reassured that your wellbore abandonment will meet provincial abandonment regulations cost effectively.  Every abandonment is unique, and a tailored program will be drawn up to address isolation between commingled formations, cement above the casing shoe, and proper isolation with surface ground water. Every program submitted to the government will be stamped by a professional engineer and receive a stamped certificate of authorization (APEGA, APEGS, or APEGM). Upon successful downhole abandonment, we will complete the cut & cap and flowline abandonment as well as conduct a Phase 1 ESA followed by a Phase 2 ESA if required. Our goal is to restore the land back to its original state and meet all the requirements to successfully submit an AOR application.
