Abstract
The regional integrity of hydrocarbon seals was investigated across the BC/Alberta edge of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin by looking at the geochemistry of gases from three wells. We analyzed the carbon isotope and compositional geochemistry of hydrocarbon gases liberated by drilling.
