Township Canada for Oil and Gas Operators
Wells with lifecycle status across Alberta, Saskatchewan, British Columbia, and Manitoba, plus pipelines, facilities, treaty overlay, and operator history snapshots, alongside batch conversion and API access.
What energy operators do with Township Canada
Every well in Western Canada has an address - not a postal code, but a legal land description tied to the Dominion Land Survey grid. Township Canada maps wells across Alberta, Saskatchewan, British Columbia, and Manitoba by LSD. Pipeline permits reference section crossings. CCS tenure applications list quarter sections by formation extent. Township Canada puts the data layers and the conversion tools in one place.
Wells with full lifecycle status
The shipped Wells layer renders licensed wells across Alberta, Saskatchewan, British Columbia, and Manitoba as a circle on the survey grid, colour-coded by licence status:
- Active (issued, amended, re-entered)
- Suspended
- Abandoned
- Reclaimed (re-certified, exempt)
Plus the orphan flag - wells transferred to the Orphan Well Association inventory because the licensee can no longer fulfill closure obligations. Critical for surface-rights holders evaluating closure exposure on M&A diligence.
Find any well by searching its UWI, clicking it on the map, or opening the parcel report for the quarter section it sits on.
Pipelines and facilities
AER pipelines render as line layers with mid-point label points. AER Facilities (ST102) categorize 40+ Petrinex sub-codes into 8 buckets - battery, gas plant, compressor, disposal, custom treating, terminal, water source, other - so the catalog UI stays readable at province scale.
Treaty boundaries on the DLS grid
Treaties 4, 6, 7, 8, and 10 rendered as polygons at low zoom, surfaced in the parcel report under "Indigenous consultation hazard." For any well location or proposed activity site, the treaty overlap is visible on the same map as the wells and pipelines.
Operator snapshot
Open any licensee's operator view for a one-shot portfolio profile: total licences, plus the breakdown by active, suspended, abandoned, orphan, and reclamation-certified. Built for M&A diligence and operator-portfolio analysis.
Batch conversion and field routing
For regulatory submissions with thousands of well locations, the batch converter ingests CSVs and returns coordinates, geometry, and survey metadata. For field crews, the route planner takes legal descriptions and produces turn-by-turn routes across range roads and township roads.
Which tier fits
- Starter. Paid entry plan - single lookups, basic search. No batch or team features.
- Business. Required for batch work - unlimited searches, batch CSV upload, all export formats (CSV, KML, Shapefile, GeoJSON, DXF), team management.
- Energy Bundle add-on. Adds wells across Alberta, Saskatchewan, British Columbia, and Manitoba (lifecycle, orphan flag), pipelines, facilities, CCS / pore space and geothermal layers (Alberta), treaty boundary overlay, Crown PNG and mineral tenure on the map and in the parcel report, operator snapshots, and production rollups. Stacks on Pro or Business.
Most O&G operators run Business + Energy Bundle per seat. See pricing or the energy use case page.
