Seismic on early SAGD projectSome SAGD schemes are for sale, some are shut down. By reviewing the early applications, you can learn a lot about the operation if you're interesting in buying a scheme.

He had planned 8 months for regulatory approval. But it actually took over three years to obtain the approval.
