How the rich and famous run their one-window applications

Single window applications were heralded by the regulator as the great new regulatory innovation. But only a very few operators have submitted one.

How do they look? How do they work? Will they become the regulatory mode of the future? Or only the domain of a few of the foremost?

Without AppIntel, how would you find approval times and approval strategies for single applications? AppIntel helps you find this approval times for all types of applications.

With WTI oil over $60 CDN and AECO C gas approaching $3, life is looking rosier for the oil and gas industry in Canada. Application volume has been increasing indicating more activity in the oil patch over the coming year.

One window applications

The regulator was excited about using Single Applications to regulate everything about a field development with a single approval.

Facilities to well spacing, pipelines to injection locations. One ring to rule them all.

Few submitted

Single global applications have existed now for two years and fewer than 10 of these integrated Single Apps have been approved.

These applications require many amendments. Often the amendment applications are very small. But the regulatory approval documents can be very lengthy with dozens of pages.

Big build up - slow start

Single applications were heralded with much fanfare. For example, in August 2016, over 40% of the well licence applications were refused. The reason for the closures? They were closed to be resubmitted under a single app -- a NALA application.

NALA - New Activity Lifecycle Approach was the policy that created the Single Application or more accurately, the Single Approval.

Keep abreast of thermal paradigm changes

The only way to stay abreast of rapid technological change is to read the AER applications of other operators. Technical papers don't expose new technology quickly enough. Technical forums don't reveal enough detail.

Imagine getting an email every time a new application is submitted to the regulator that contains the words thermal bitumen . Introducing hit alerts by AppIntel.
