About the Orphan Well Association

The Orphan Well Association (OWA) is an independent non-profit organization that operates under the delegated legal authority of the Alberta Energy Regulator (AER). Our mission is to decommission Orphan oil and gas infrastructure in the Alberta oil and gas sector and reclaim the land to its original state in a safe, principled and cost-efficient manner.  Orphan properties are wells, pipelines, facilities and associated sites that have been left behind by defunct or insolvent companies and that have been designated as orphans by the AER.
