Nature of the Applications
Apache Canada Ltd. (Apache) has applied pursuant to Section 2.020 of the Oil and Gas Conservation Regulations for licences to drill three vertical wells from three different surface locations. Apache has also applied pursuant to Part 4 of the Pipeline Act for approval to construct and operate three associated pipelines. The details of the applications are as follows:

Applications No. 1477016, 1505721 and 1506137
Applications for three vertical wells from surface locations at Legal Subdivision (LSD) 2 of Section 11, Township 43, Range 24, West of the 4th Meridian, LSD 10-2-43-24W4M and LSD 6-12-43-24W4M. No hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is expected to be encountered in the drilling of these wells. The purpose of the wells would be to obtain coalbed methane production from the Edmonton Formation, as well as natural gas from the Belly River Formation.

Applications No. 1479473, 1479476 and 1506694
Applications for three pipelines to transport natural gas from and to the following locations: (Application No.1477016) from LSD 2-11-43-24W4M to a tie-in point at LSD 3-11-43-24W4M; (Application No.1479476) from LSD 10-2-43-24W4M to a tie-in point at LSD 6-2-43-24W4M; (Application No.1506694) from LSD 6-12-43-24W4M to a tie-in point at LSD 1-12-43-24W4M. The proposed pipelines would be approximately 0.8 kilometres (km), 0.6 km, and 1.27 km in length, respectively, with maximum outside diameters of 114.3 millimetres, and would transport natural gas containing no H2S.

The proposed wells and pipelines would be located approximately 13 km east of Ponoka.
