Wellsite and Pipeline Development

Talisman looked to drill an exploratory natural gas well adjacent to the Graham River in northeastern British Columbia. The ideal well location was in the middle of a proposed caribou movement corridor for the Graham Herd of Northern Caribou. In order to drill the well and mitigate the Ministry of Environment’s concerns, Eco-Web prepared a Wildlife Mitigation Plan to cover the construction, drilling and pipeline tie-in of this location. Eco-Web also actively monitored the entire development, recording wildlife activity, providing education and recommendations to on-site personnel and dealing with issues in an iterative manner, so as to adaptively manage this project and minimize the impact on this declining caribou herd.
