(Daylight) contractor was conducting a work-over operation on an oil well. The well’s surface location is in Legal Subdivision (LSD) 10, Section 31, Township 46, Range 10, West of the 5th Meridian (10-31), about 11 kilometres (km) southwest of the Hamlet of Lodgepole, while the bottomhole is located in LSD 7-31-046-10W5M. The crew evacuated the site, and the release, consisting of water, oil, and gas containing hydrogen sulphide (H2S), ignited destroying the service rig. Daylight contracted well control specialists and used a caterpillar to remove the remains of the service rig from the well site. The specialists then used a crane to lift the polish rod 4 m above the surface of the wellbore, where it was clamped in place, cut, and allowed to drop down the well. Subsequently, Daylight was able to close the master valve on the well and extinguish the fire at 3:00 a.m. on March 5. The 10-31 well was licensed for 15.82 per cent H2S, but a recent gas analysis indicated that the well contained 12.5 per cent H2S at the time of the release.

  • Seismic Processing Workflow for Supressing Coherent Noise While Retaining Low-Frequency Signal
    Seismic processing for coherent noise suppression Seismic processing workflow for supressing coherent noise while retaining low-frequency signal Patricia E. Gavotti and Don C. Lawton ABSTRACT Two different processing workflows were applied to the same dataset to evaluate the effect of noise attenuation methods while attempting to preserve low-frequency signal with the purpose of obtaining broadband seismic data to benefit inversion studies. The approach was based on a previously conditioned dataset with a conventional processing sequence versus applying a specialized processing sequence focused on attaining coherent noise. The conventional sequence used surface wave noise attenuation and spiking deconvolution processes, while the specialized sequence used radial filter and gabor deconvolution processes. The specialized processing flow resulted in better attenuation of low-frequency noise while succeeded in retaining the low frequency signal. In comparison with the previous processed stacked, current result showed higher low- frequency content around the target zone (~ 5-9 Hz) than the previous processing (~ 9-14 Hz), but showed a structural depression in the middle part of the section possibly related with a shallow channel caused by an old meander of the North Saskatchewan River. However, no velocity or statics anomalies were observed during the processing of this dataset. AREA OF STUDY AND INPUT DATA The study area is located in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin (WCSB), approximately 70 km west of Edmonton, where the Wabamun Area CO2 Sequestration Project (WASP) study was undertaken and Project Pioneer was planned to be built at the Keephills 3 power station (Figure 1). The seismic data for this project was provided by TransAlta Corporation and consists of two 2D seismic lines of 17.38 km and 12.91 km, respectively.

  • Eagle Point – Blue Rapids Park System
    Eagle Point - Blue Rapids Park System International Standard Book Number: 978-0-7785-9416-1 For more information please contact: Alberta Tourism, Parks and Recreation 2nd Floor, Oxbridge Place 9820 - 106 Street Edmonton, Alberta, T5K 2J6 Website: http://www.tpr.alberta.ca/parks/ Telephone: 780-427-7009 Toll Free: 1-866-427-3582 PREFACE The Eagle Point – Blue Rapids Park System Management Plan provides a long-term vision and day-to-day guidance for stewardship of Eagle Point Provincial Park and Blue Rapids Provincial Recreation Area. The plan was prepared within the context of existing legislation and regulations. It outlines the type and extent of outdoor recreation and tourism opportunities, facilities and services including the delivery of visitor services programs that assist Albertans and visitors to understand and appreciate our natural heritage while ensuring its ongoing conservation. The Management Plan was prepared with extensive public input and will be reviewed and revised periodically to reflect the current thinking of Albertans about how our natural heritage will be protected for present and future generations. The Minister responsible for Parks and Protected Areas has authorized the implementation of the Management Plan and retains the authority to amend or interpret its provisions. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Since the establishment of the Eagle Point Provincial Park and Blue Rapids Provincial Recreation Area, there have been a number of individuals and volunteer organizations that have contributed countless hours towards the advancement of this document. The belief that a new way of managing a Provincial Park and Provincial Recreation Area was possible led local volunteer organizations, industry leaseholders, and local municipalities to forge an innovative partnership with Alberta Parks.
