The Pembina Institute has been working on new resources for Albertans to understand their rights and the potential benefits and risks of hosting energy projects on their land.
With support from the Alberta Real Estate Foundation, the institute has updated its resources, including the Landowners’ Guide to Oil and Gas Development.
This comprehensive guide, first published in 2001 as When the Oilpatch Comes to Your Backyard, helps Albertans understand their rights, responsibilities, and options when oil and gas firms operate on their land.
The fourth edition, released in October 2025, reflects nearly a decade of change in Alberta’s regulatory landscape.
