Resource Name Horn River Basin Aquifer Project (Phase 1)
Resource Purpose A research project with three objectives: 1) synthesize available geological information to produce a stratigraphic framework for hydrogeological / aquifer analysis; 2) facilitate collection of aquifer and fluid data from new Producer Group wells, particularly those being drilled for water supply and disposal and 3) undertake a systematic hydrogeological investigation of potential aquifers in the Horn River Basin in order to quantify and map reservoir capacity and productivity / injectivity potential.
