CALGARY — Canadian energy producers say they are prepared and ready for what could be another spring and summer of drought and wildfires in Western Canada.

NuVista, a Calgary-based company, temporarily shut down all of its facilities in the Grande Prairie, Alta. area last May when fires made it impossible to access the company's sites by road. Many of the fires that burned last year in Western Canada remained smouldering as sub-surface hot spots throughout the winter, and are now igniting as the snow melts and temperatures heat up.

"It's dry conditions up there and they didn't get the snowpack they usually do," said Chris Carlsen, CEO of Birchcliff Energy Ltd., which has operations in the Montney. "I think it's a question of what will happen this spring? Are we going to have a wet spring where we're going to be able to collect some water for our 2025 program? I think that's more of a concern from our point of view," Carlsen said.
