Drilling Waste – Regulatory Efficiency

On March 28, 2022, the AER released a new edition of Directive 050: Drilling Waste Management. To contribute to the Government of Alberta’s Red Tape Reduction Act, the AER streamlined the directive to remove duplicate requirements.

The changes clarify the regulatory and operational requirements, improve regulatory application efficiency, and enable operators to reduce land disturbance from drilling waste management practices.
