1 Water for Hydraulic Fracturing Use, Challenges and Solutions in Alberta Michael Bevan, Senior Advisor, Industry Operations GWPC Annual Forum, Sept. 11, 2018
2 Alberta s Oil and Gas Production Over 80% of Canada s oil production in 2017 ~1.2 billion barrels Nearly 70% of natural gas production in 2017 ~4 trillion cubic feet GWPC 2018 Much is exported to U.S. Regulated by the Alberta Source: AER ST-98 Energy Regulator AER 2
3 Hydraulic Fracturing in Alberta >15,000 horizontal wells fractured since different formations e.g., Duvernay, Montney, Cardium 65% oil, 35% gas Variable water needs <200,000 to >13 mil gal Detailed additive and water data collected since 2013 AER 3
4 Water for Hydraulic Fracturing Regulatory requirement for submission Water used (technological aspect) Carrier fluid, reported by stage Reported on FracFocus.ca! Nonsaline water use performance Water sourced (environmental aspect) Where, when, how much Nonsaline - surface water, groundwater, municipal Alternatives - saline groundwater, produced, recycled/reused flowback, waste/effluent AER 4
5 Environmental Aspects Impact? Nonsaline water for Fracturing Availability: 343 trillion gallons (est.) Use: Other Energy 21% Allocation: 0.8% Allocated 22% Used HF 0.7% Unused 78% Energy Sector 10% Source: AER data; Alberta Energy Industry Water Report, AER.ca AER 5
6 Environmental Aspects Sources Various water types used, mostly nonsaline 2.6 bil gal. Total Make-up 1.3 bil gal. 0 gal. Recycled bil gal. Make-up Nonsaline 1.3 bil gal. (Preliminary 2017 data shows increases.) Source: Alberta Energy Industry Water Report, AER.ca 0 gal. Alternatives AER 6
7 Technical Aspects - Performance Nonsaline Water Use Intensity - HF NS Water Use Intensity bbl/boe (Preliminary 2017 data shows increases.) Other sectors NS Intensity bbl/boe Source: Alberta Energy Industry Water Report, AER.ca 0 AER
8 Technical Aspects Benchmarking Peer to peer performance comparison Cohorts by company size Differing strategies Intensity by Company NS Intensity Source: AER data AER 8
9 Technical Aspects Benchmarking Geologic Variability Formation differences. Operator can influence Intensity by Formation NS Intensity Formation Intensity by Company NS Intensity Source: AER data AER 9
10 Improving Water Performance Drivers: water conservation environmental protection social license cost Challenges: Regulatory aspects Limiting water classifications Waste vs produced Unclear, sometimes restrictive or absent Conveyance Storage AER 10
11 Possible Solutions Conveyance Temporary, surface infrastructure Poor quality nonsaline (e.g., treated effluent) Storage Large volumes, centralized ECPs, AWSSs (aka C-ring) Flowback, produced water Consider fluid risk, siting, monitoring, liability AER 11
12 Benefits of Regulatory Change Regulator Clarity, consistency, efficiency, monitoring/ reporting, help to meet goals Industry Cost savings, time savings, regulatory certainty, facilitate water sharing competitiveness Environment less nonsaline water use, reduced disturbance, less trucking lower risk AER 12
13 Pilot Project - ECP Tourmaline Oil proposed engineered containment pond (ECP) for produced water/ flowback to support HF operations Goal reuse water, use less nonsaline water reduced trucking/ disposal decrease cost & risk Restrictive rules for long-term, large volume storage Worked with operator develop requirements, processes for application and approval AER 13
14 Success Tourmaline Banshee ECP Successful pilot project! Regulator: Knowledge gathering process, info requirements, gaps, site visits 3 more ECPs approved since, up to 40 mil gal. Informing current development of regulatory tool Operator: Reuse facilitated, reduced disposal/ trucking/ NS water use/ cost Regulatory certainty AER 14
15 Summary Detailed HF water data = invaluable intelligence HF activity and water use is increasing, while barrels of nonsaline water per BOE is not Alberta Energy Industry Water Use Report (available at Protecting What Matters Industry Performance Water) Regulatory solutions to facilitate increased use of alternatives are under development AER 15
