BC Oil & Gas Commission

Energy development in British Columbia needs clear rules from exploration through reclamation. The BC Energy Regulator oversees oil, gas, renewable geothermal, pipeline transportation, environmental protection, and reclamation activities across B.C.

We protect public safety and safeguard the environment through regulation of energy resource activities. That role includes balancing environmental, economic, and social considerations under authority delegated by the Province of British Columbia.

Pipeline performance, oil and gas reserves, production reporting, directives, safety advisories, and technical updates are part of the information we make available to energy professionals. These resources support regulated activity planning and compliance work across the province.

Our Fort St. John presence connects industry, communities, and project stakeholders with regulatory guidance for energy resource activity in British Columbia.
