Ontario digital petroleum production data from 1992 to 2007 is now available to all members for free during our four month beta test period, ending May 1, 2010.

Data is accessed on a well by well basis through the production tab on wells cards found using the well search. Data tables can also be prepared by the OGSR Library on a per operator, per pool, or per area basis.
