husky's frac job

[shambano1]

what's the status of Husky's planned fracture stimulation in this winter program, 1 well will be completed with natural fractures and the second well is going to gfet frac'd.

I have not seen any news regarding an environmental review for Husky?

I can't see Husky getting around environmental reviews and they are spending big bucks build an all season road.

cheers

Husky has received approval to do the frac job and testing.  No environmental review.  Conoco has also received approval to drill three wells.  So it appears that it is the horizontal well with multistage fracking that causes the public concern and hence the referal of the MGM well to an environmental assessment.  Husky has also applied to build a 2 permanent drilling pads

Husky's project may not necessarily automatically require a review, there needs to CEAA trigger. The devil is in the detail. If they did a proper impact assessment prior to making application; and the triggers were mitigated or avoided they could get through the review unscathed. The triggers are typically species at risk, disturbance of sensitive lands, emissions related or first nations

Hi Geodude: I believe that that the Sathu LWB has requested comments by November 30th for Husky's application so we are going to get an idea pretty soon about whether it will be referred for an environmental review.  The decision is to be made by December 19th.
