Does the ERCB expect an increase in common carrier and common processor applications from owners of the shallow resource?
Utilizing existing infrastructure is the preferred option to reduce the footprint of oil and gas activity, however, in many instances deeper production has higher operating pressures than the shallow zones and may not be suitable for common production streams. The ERCB will continue to support the use of the Alternate Dispute Resolution process to settle disputes; however they will hold hearings as required.
