Fulfilling Decommissioning Obligations – A Service Industry Opportunity
Abstract
Decommissioning obligations are having an overwhelming impact on the future viability of the oil and gas industry in Canada. Quantum and timing are uncertain, adding risk to the industry. Banks and equity lenders have prioritized decommissioning related to suspended and inactive wells, facilities and pipelines significantly reducing lines and access to capital. Layer on regulatory uncertainty and environmental and social governance and the industry is held hostage to decommissioning obligations. What if we could turn the decommissioning obligations into an opportunity for the service industry and in so doing empower the growth component of our industry? This presentation quantifies the opportunity, articulates an end of life model that can fulfill these objectives and discusses some regulatory and policy changes required to support such a model.
