The purpose of the 2013 Annual Report on Water Use for Oil and Gas Activity is to present data and information on water approvals, water withdrawal and water use related to the oil and gas industry, including hydraulic fracturing.
This report contains short-term water use data from the 2013 calendar year, including the cumulative volume of water approved for use and the volume reported as actually used by permit holders.
It includes similar data on water licences in northeast British Columbia, which are valid for periods greater than two years. Information on water source wells, a well drilled to obtain water for the purpose of injection into underground formations to enhance oil and natural gas recovery, is included in the report.
