AER Datahub Differences

- Data Hub Volumes: includes experimental and confidential production numbers but excludes production reported from storage wells. The rationale is that gas injected into storage wells is assumed to have been reported as production when initially extracted.
- Petrinex Volumes: The Petrinex reports (https://www.petrinex.ca/PD/Pages/APD.aspx) exclude facilities that are experimental confidential and the volumes for confidential wells. More information about this exclusion can be found in page 7 of the supporting pdf document: https://www.petrinex.ca/PD/Documents/PD_Conventional_Volumetrics_Report.pdf

- 12,436,317 e3m3 – 11,594,253 e3m3 = 842,064 e3m3
AER Explanation
This data was provided by the AER.

Summary
As you can see above, the sum of the Confidential Volumes and the Storage Well Production equal the difference between the Petrinex and Datahub Volume.
Note: As previously mentioned, Petrinex does not report Confidential Volumes.
