BACKGROUND:
User cannot find a facility record in the AER Facility list or in Petrinex. Facilities with the 'ABI' prefex indicate that the facility comes from the licensed pipeline installations file.
SOLUTION:
GDM maintains the facility data from information provided by Petrinex as well as various provincial regulators. In the case of the these facilities, the information comes from the AER and specifically their licensed pipeline installations. Historically operators were able to license facilities, that were connected to their pipelines, under the pipeline license number.
To make any changes to this facility you will need to engage the AER as we reflect the current licensed information in our data products. Once a change has been made by the AER we will reflect it in our data products.
You can provide a report of other facilities licensed in a similar way using the following SQL Query and replacing the XXXXX with the company name:
SELECT
__facility_number AS [FACILITY NUMBER],
BA_NAME AS [OPERATOR],
FLD_CENTRE AS [FIELD CENTRE],
INSTA_LIC AS [LICENSE],
INSTA_TYPE [TYPE],
INST_LOCAT [LOCATION]
FROM [AER].[Facility].[pipeline_installations_gcs_nad83]
WHERE BA_NAME LIKE 'XXXXX%'
