Contested Application – Alternative Dispute Resolution
Manitok Energy Inc. (“Manitok”) filed applications pursuant to section 7.001 of the Oil and Gas Conservation Rules for a pipeline and multiwell oil satellite. Several parties filed statements of concern with the AER to contest the applications. Manitok engaged in an alternative dispute resolution process led by an AER Commissioner, which resulted in agreement between the parties. On January 7, 2016 the statements of concern was withdrawn, and accordingly, the AER decided not to hold a public hearing. The AER approved both applications from Manitok.
