Gas Processing Management Inc. and energy-industry-focused performance improvement company HSB Solomon Associates LLC said Sept. 16 that they completed their comprehensive assessment of Alberta’s high-condensate Montney play’s potential to produce natural gas and NGL in the vicinity of the Wapiti River.
The assessment:
--Examined gas and NGL take-away infrastructure and optimization required for future production;
--Focused on new gas gathering and processing facilities where required; developed a logical case for infrastructure development, operation, and management;
--Forecast natural gas--raw gas and sales gas--and hydrocarbon liquids byproduct as part of a Western Canadian natural gas demand and supply model;
--Examined larger gas processing facilities in the area that have the capacity to handle the forecast growth; and
--Incorporated a full geological look at the production potential from the entire Montney play and all other plays in the Wapiti area.
The assessment also considered the area’s natural /NGL gathering and processing infrastructure and takeaway pipelines.
The Alberta Montney play has been analyzed as part of the larger geographic assessments completed by Solomon and GPMi —the 2015 Montney Growth Resource & Infrastructure Assessment and the 2016 Northern Duvernay & Tight Gas Growth Resource & Infrastructure Assessment.
These assessments examined key growth areas of the Cretaceous, Montney, and Duvernay plays in Alberta and British Columbia from northwest of Fort St. John to west of the town of Drayton Valley.
