Summary

This feature class shows the location of Non-Vertical (horizontal, slant, directional and vertical) wells for mapping purposes, and surface and subsurface analysis. The well location information was taken from survey plans and entered in to the Ministry's IRIS system and is the best representation of the information that has been submitted.

Description

            

This feature class shows the location of non-vertical (horizontal) wells surface and bottom hole spatial geometry that have been licenced under The Oil and Gas Conservation Act and Regulations and The Oil and The Gas Conservation Regulations 2012 across Saskatchewan for the purpose drilling, operating, producing/injecting or exploring an upstream oil and gas well, mineral exploration potash wells, in Saskatchewan. The following attributes fields are either reported elements that have been submitted into the Ministry's IRIS System and or are derived based on the wells targeted substance type and the wells operational status.
