Conventional – Unconventional – Thermal In Situ
In this Bulletin, the AER announced the release of a new edition of Directive 017: Measurement Requirements for Oil and Gas Operations with revised measurement requirements for conventional, unconventional, and thermal in situ operations.
The AER indicated that the new requirements reflect advancements in measurement technology and in emerging unconventional resource plays. The changes give industry more flexibility in selecting measurement approaches, resulting in reduced capital and operating costs without compromising accurate measurement reporting.
The updated directive replaced the edition released on March 31, 2016, and takes effect immediately.
