Directive 051

Injection and Disposal Wells -

Well Classifications,
Completions, Logging, and
Testing Requirements

March 1994


Effective J anuary 1, 2008, the Alberta Energy and Utilities Board (EUB)
has been realigned into two separate regulatory bodies, the Energy
Resources Conservation Board (ERCB), which regulates the energy
industry, and the Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC), which regulates
the utilities industry.

As part of this realignment, the title pages of all existing EUB directives
now carry the new ERCB logo. However, no other changes have been
made to the directives, and they continue to have references to EUB.
As new editions of the directives are issued, these references will be
changed.

GUIDE RENAMED AS A DIRECTIVE

As announced in Bulletin 2004-02: Streamlining EUB Documents on Regulatory Requirements, the
Alberta Energy and Utilities Board (EUB) will issue only directives, discontinuing interim directives,
informational letters, and guides. Directives set out new or amended EUB requirements or processes to
be implemented and followed by licensees, permittees, and other approval holders under the jurisdiction
of the EUB.

As part of this initiative, this document has been renamed as a directive. However, no other changes
have been made. Therefore, the document text continues to have references to guides. These
references should be read as referring to the directive of the same number. When this directive is
amended, these references will be changed to reflect their renaming as directives.
