Natural gas, the cleanest of the fossil fuels and least harmful to the environment, is increasingly becoming the fuel of choice. BG Group works in co-operation with governments, partners and other stakeholders to build natural gas markets worldwide.
BG Group's first Canadian drilling programme commenced in May 2004 and continued through the winter drilling season into March, 2005. Of 14 wells drilled, ten discovered gas. Several areas in western Alberta and NEBC have limited access windows due to environmental restrictions, so planning and execution skills are important. However, even with shortened drilling seasons, the undeveloped oil and gas acreage provides significant opportunities for expansion and development.
