Drilling Rigs


Drilling Rig noise can be a significant concern for adjacent residents.  In some circumstances, the Drilling Rig can be located within a few hundred meters from nearby homes.  ACI has experience with noise measurements and mitigation recommendations for Drilling Rigs to ensure compliance with the applicable regulations such as the Alberta Energy Regulator (AER) Directive 038 and the Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC) Rule 012.

 

In addition to noise impact assessments, ACI has the equipment and expertise to conduct long term noise monitorings for several days up to several months and even permanent installations.
