Groundbirch

At Shell, we believe natural gas is an important resource for the energy future and it must be produced safely and responsibly. Our Groundbirch project, located in northeast British Columbia, is made up of 500 producing gas wells and four gas plants.

About Groundbirch

Learn about our facilities, technologies, and emergency response and safety.

Land

We continually consider the amount of land we use, including the protection of livestock and wildlife and their critical habitats, to ensure we make responsible and sustainable decisions that reduce our impact as much as possible.

Air

Part of being a good neighbour and responsible operator means we continuously work to manage emissions and limit our impact on the environment and air quality.

Water

Water is essential to life. Using water as efficiently as possible has been part of our environmental standards for many years. We are continuing to step up our efforts to conserve fresh water by reducing consumption and increasing water reuse and recycling.
