Pétrolia (Toronto Venture: PEA) has announced the resumption of drilling at the Haldimand 4 site. This conventional horizontal well drilled without hydraulic fracturing will allow the company to assess the commercial potential of the petroleum resources of the Haldimand deposit.
The Haldimand 4 well site is located in the wooded area near Sandy Beach, Gaspé. Pétrolia has implemented several measures to minimize social and environmental risks, including an aquifer observation well, a watertight membrane under the drill site, and a sound barrier, as well as an emergency response plan developed specifically for the Haldimand 4 site by an outside firm.
Pétrolia recently opened a new information office in Gaspé, and has hired a local representative to oversee dialogue with the community and respond to questions that may arise concerning its projects on the Gaspé Peninsula, including this well.
The company is based in Quebec City.
