Area In Detail

Key Property - Dawson & West Dawson

The Montney play in the Dawson area has become one of the hottest plays in our industry today. Drilling for tight gas did not, economically speaking, make sense in the past; however, advances in fracturing and completion technology have made it economic for oil and gas companies to exploit this type of asset. ARC is proud to have been one of the first players in the Montney, a gas rich play in northeast British Columbia. ARC has also been a pioneer in the use of multi-stage frac technology used in the completion of horizontal wells that have been instrumental in the development of this resource play. Activity in the Montney is highlighted by the construction of a new 60 mmcf per day gas plant at Dawson. The gas plant was brought on stream in the second quarter of 2010
