... of the Pembina field in western Alberta consists of approximately 50 naturally fractured Nisku carbonate reefs. Production from the Bigoray Nisku D and E pools started in 1978, and shortly after, water injection was initiated to maintain reservoir pressure as a secondary drive mechanism. By 2013, the pools had...
