While articles typically reference the oil company's (Cenovus) misrepresentations, I have secondhand information that the caprock layer of the formation is cracked, and that the leak is therefore not contained to a small area, but that produced water is surfacing in nearby fields.

This oilfield is currently SAGD, using steam to liquify and extract heavy oil.

Google has only 1 result, many here:

Does anyone know more?

sounds like some nasty pollution shit you got there.

Yes, the groundwater in the area is now compromised, likely unusable, perhaps indefinitely.

>>22969010
Per Cenovus, the issue is a single well.
However, unless it's a leak in the wellbore at the level of a fresh water formation, then the issue is permanent.

Where’s all the faggots with their I heart oil and gas shirts?

Those are cringe.
Same with 'dirty hands, clean money' apparel.

You may notice Cenovus shills here.
Here is one from plebbit.

Happens when you use Shitty Oil Service Companies. Should have used HAL or SLB, any competent company...

Oh ya, not letting oil companies run rough of resources is turbo Jewish isn’t it? Wearing a faggy pro corporate shirt also isn’t faggy at all, is it? Fucking loser.

Injecting toxic chemicals into our groundwater is a stupid idea. Just go drill offshore. It’s less toxic.

Moved to bant... Yeah ok

Is the water in the nearby city contaminated?

Kek you think fossil fuel comes from rocks?

>>22969471
that is what generates the hydrocarbons

Do more research to see if the regulators have on file the injection plan, and if you can get it see if they intentionally inject at pressures exceeding the fracture gradient. Its common to inject greater than frac gradient to create new paths for the steam to get get to the oil, heat it up, and then the water mixes with the now hot oil and it can flow back to the well for extraction. Excessive pressure and volume and create growing fractures up through any cap rock and allow the oil/steam to escape uncontrollably, especially if the steam injection continues. I do not know what the Canadian regulators are called, nor do I speak Canadian. If you can link to an english site I can help you review the technical documents.

fossil fuels come from the local petrol station, a never ending supply

This is why produced fluid is gushing all over Alberta and Saskatchewan.

curbstomp all supporters and people who profit off of gas and oil, and burn their bodies using the climate activists who shill their stupid fantasies of solar and wind as fuel
this world and society will never heal until we cast out these mental illnesses until we power every home and every car using the boundless energy from nuclear power plants
we could literally be running the world off of star power right now but we chose whatever the fuck this reality is
i think there is genuinely no group of people that will contribute more to the eventual collapse of civilization than they, and it would be in everybody's best interest to do everything in their power to cripple them before they steal a future from our children
