Bitumen production application refused

But you can check out the geological mapping

SAGD type logThe AER closed this bitumen production application. It's too bad -- a huge amount of geological work went into preparing it. The applicant's geoscience team put together structure maps, net pay maps, type logs, core analysis and facies descriptions. Now they're all in the public domain. And net pay maps show something good off the applicant's land.

Since not all the land in the trend is owned by the applicant, offsets may be able to leverage from the free geological information. A friend of mine once said, if you can't come up with a play each week, steal one. This isn't stealing, but it sure helps you review and extend others' play concepts.

AER applications contain more technical data even than SPE papers for two reasons: they are ground-truthed to actual UWI locations, and they are adjudicated by a very picky regulator.
