It is very unfortunate that the Private Gas well Incentive Program ended on March 31, 2017 and there are no plans to renew the program.
To find out if you are eligible for grants under the Ontario Private Gas Well Incentive Program your well must be evaluated by a Qualified Person.
As a Professional Geoscientist and ministry-recognized Examiner, I am considered by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry Petroleum Operations to be a Qualified Person to perform well evaluations.
(Association of Professional Geoscientists of Ontario (APGO), P.Geo., License #1656)
(MNRF Class I, II & IV Examiner, Examiner # E104 12)
I frequently perform confidential well inspections to advise private gas well owners on the possible outcomes of the well licensing process and the changes that may be required to their well to meet the current standards.
I can advise/assist in any licensing requirements and help you work with the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry Petroleum Operations. I have thorough knowledge of the Ontario Oil, Gas & Salt Resources Act, related regulations and standards and frequently work on projects that involve government Inspectors.
