Highlights from Mr Carpenter's gas field report
The Bow Island field has fallen from 42 million to about nine billion cubic feet available. A compressor station is needed to use remaining gas while Turner's Valley yields about three million cubic feet daily. Peak demand is expected at 15 to 16 million cubic feet daily in cold weather, with Medicine Hat Redcliff field estimated at 87.9 million cu ft per day. Estimates suggest reserve fields near Medicine Hat are needed to offset declines and avoid waste.
