  • The Alberta-Montana Border Region
    1 2 _________________________________ Borers in oaiation Research roect Inland Border Issues: The Alberta- Montana Border Region Geoffrey Hale University of Lethbridge Conference draft owerpoint This paper explores the state of cross-border economic relations between Alberta and Montana in the context of both jurisdictions’ broader trade relations and major Canada-U.S. trade corridors. It also examines the challenges of working with other jurisdictions in developing cooperative policy agendas capable of encouraging trade and travel while enabling a broader distribution of their benefits, both for neighbouring and more distant jurisdictions. This paper has three major sections: a) a summary description of Alberta’s borderlands with Montana and neighbouring Canadian and U.S. regions, including the border regions of northern Montana and neighbouring Canadian provinces; b) a summary of major trade, freight and travel flows from Alberta to neighboring U.S. jurisdictions, compared with Montana’s trade with neighbouring Canadian provinces; c) significant issues and challenges arising from the nature of trade-travel flows in the Alberta- Montana region; combined with recommendations for action and further research. Given the far-flung nature of Alberta’s trade and travel relationships within and beyond North America, this analysis only addresses a small segment of Alberta’s broader trade and economic relationships – or of bilateral relations between Alberta and its immediate neighbours in the Pacific Northwest Economic Region. However, it is hoped that it will provide building blocks for a better understanding of the broader relationship and identify areas for its future deepening and development. The Alberta-Montana Border and Borderlands Region Geographers typically distinguish between borders as physical boundaries between jurisdictions and borderlands – zones of varying depth and levels of interaction among people and communities in neighboring jurisdictions.

  • An Integrated Geological and Geophysical Analysis of the Hydrocarbon Potential of the Spring Coulee, Alberta Area
    Hydrocarbon Potential of Spring Coulee An integrated geological and geophysical analysis of the hydrocarbon potential of the Spring Coulee, Alberta area Lauren A. Ostridge and Robert R. Stewart ABSTRACT The University of Calgary holds the mineral rights to two sections of land in southern Alberta (sections 14 and 23, township 4, range 23 west of the fourth meridian) in the Spring Coulee Area. CREWES was given the opportunity to analyze the hydrocarbon potential of the area. The geological potential of the area was examined, and it was determined that there is a potential to find oil in the structurally high areas of the Madison zone, of Mississippian age, with the possibility of a potential of finding hydrocarbons in younger sand and shale zones, along with deeper carbonates. In January 2008, CREWES, in conjunction with ARAM, Outsource and CGGVeritas shot a 2D-3C seismic survey over the area, looking mainly at the Madison Zone. It was discovered that there are at least two structural highs in the Mississippian zone and more work is being done to model this reservoir. From the information at hand, we have chosen two potential well locations in the south-central portion of section 23 and the north-northwestern side of section 14. INTRODUCTION In July of 2004, the University of Calgary hired a new land administrator. Upon searching for the titles for the University of Calgary, he discovered that there were two sections of mineral rights owned by ‘The Board of Directors of the University of Calgary’. The land is sections 14 and 23, township 4, range 23, west of the fourth meridian.
