Gas plant expansion finally approval
Play based regulatory (PBR) process allows companies to bundle all their approvals into one application. PBR is used in areas like the Duvernay and allow companies to drill without well density restrictions.
The advantage of play based applications is that the regulator gets to see all the facets of a project before approving any of it. The downside to the industry applicant is that the applications are very large and take a long time to prepare and approve.
One operator wanted to double the size of his gas plant. It took 10 months for his application to be approved through the play based route. You can see his application within moments by clicking on the "Get this application now" link below.

Not only did he need to submit his facility plans, prevailing winds, acoustic noise map, he also disclosed all his gathering system and pipeline plans, and his acid gas injection proposal.
He also was required to submit reports on wildlife including grizzly bear and migratory bird habits like the red-tailed hawk.
Play Based Applications are comprehensive
The regulator holds out greater regulatory flexibility as the reward for play based regulatory applications. For example, they don't specify any well density spacing regulations.
However, similar to SAGD scheme applications, the amount of information in play based applications is very significant. They want spacing, soil sampling, wildlife monitoring, acoustic noise simulations and plume dispersion models.
Because play based applications are so comprehensive, they take longer to approve. More government departments are required to review the application.
Look at others' SIRs
Large play based applications often attract many supplemental information requests (SIR). By reading the SIR of other applications, you can get a sense of how to speed up the approval process.
For example, if you see an SIR about acoustic noise detail, you can add that information to your application in the first place so you can avoid the time of an SIR.
If you see that the regulator has been asking for more information on seismic in an area, you can be prepared and quickly move your application along.
