Alberta Energy Data: AER, Petrinex, and AESO in One Place

Alberta is the heart of Canada's energy sector, and its regulators publish an extraordinary amount of public data. The Alberta Energy Regulator (AER) alone publishes well data, facility information, production reports, casing records, vent flow data, and more. Add Petrinex production volumes, AESO electricity generation, and municipal permit data from Calgary and Edmonton, and you have a comprehensive picture of industrial activity in the province.

The Sources

Reconn aggregates 30 Alberta data sources:

• Wells — licence numbers, locations, operators, well types, and status
• Facilities — processing plants, batteries, compressor stations
• ST37 — well production and injection volumes
• ST98 — supply/demand statistics
• General Wells — the complete well list with detailed attributes
• Well Casing — casing specifications and cement records
• Vent Flow — gas vent flow measurements
• Hydraulic Fracturing Water — water usage in frac operations
• Business Associates — company registry for AER licensees

• Monthly oil and gas production volumes by well and facility

• Generation by fuel type, supply/demand reports

• Calgary building permits, business licences, planning applications
• Edmonton building permits, business licences, planning applications

• Crown land sales, OWA (Orphan Well Association), TIER fund, StatCan indicators, AB housing starts

What You Can Do With It

With all of this in one platform, analysts can:

• Track an operator's complete footprint: wells, facilities, production, and permits
• Monitor new well licences and correlate with land sale activity
• Identify companies with growing or declining production profiles
• Cross-reference AER compliance data with production volumes
• Watch for new building permits that signal facility construction
