Alberta wildfires – Most recent company news

May 8, 20232:12 PM BOE Report Staff

Our thoughts are with anyone affected by the wildfires in Alberta, and we hope that everyone remains safe. We will keep this page up and running as a central hub with the most current news to keep everyone updated on operational news for the Canadian oil and gas industry. (*NOTE: As of May 11 we will no longer be keeping these updates live, as companies begin to return to full operations. Any company updates will be posted as usual on our website but may not be reflected in the table below). We are thankful for the brave firefighters and volunteers out there battling these fires.

Keep checking back for official company updates.

Fire map as of May 9. The purple fires are the ones listed as out of control. Note that clicking on the map will provide the live view of current wildfire data for Petro Ninja users.

  • Update – May 9, 2023 at 10:41: New Petro Ninja feature adds fire perimeters onto the map as a land layer – Anyone with a Petro Ninja account can click on the map below and have the purple fire perimeters automatically added as a land layer, or select different wildfire conditions to view under the Land Layer section. Users can use this to estimate fields or production that may be at risk.
