Got the last of the Alberta work done, the drilling rig is up on the Edson well and the Pembina well is ready for its rig.
Pembina was fun...got a call from Calgary one day, shortly after what we all thought was the end of the Pembina construction. I remember a conversation after we had surveyed saying something like: `The survey had to be ammended to get it 100m from a dry dugout to avoid trouble with the EUB and licensing`...OK....3 weeks go by, I build the site and a week after that the surveyors arrive to restake....OOPS!! and hence the reason for the call. The site was built in the wrong spot and we have tresspassed....Its the very last thing anyone in my position wants to hear. Things weren`t all bad and in the end everything was fixed, but its one of those things that happens that make the stress meter go off the dial.
The Edson location turned out very tight for the size of the rig and the fact we have a 5000m3 pit alongside, not the optimal conditions, but with a little tweaking and an early cleanup of the surface shale pit, they may have just enough room to operate the rest of the drilling program...fracing when the rig is gone will be another story...I have a sneaking feeling that I will be back soon to modify the site some more...attached is a video of the 2 sites
You need to change the size so the movies fit into the blog. Here's how you do it on blogger - go into the HTML editing mode and then change the numbers in the youtube embed to 408 and 267 (if it's widescreen) and 408 and 297 (if it's regular) for the width and height. You have to change them at the beginning of the code and the end. It will be a big improvement
