The Orphan Well Association (OWA) is an independent non-profit organization that operates under the delegated legal authority of the Alberta Energy Regulator (AER).

Orphan properties are wells, pipelines, facilities and associated sites that have been left behind by defunct or insolvent companies and that have been designated as orphans by the AER.

Since beginning operations in 2002, the OWA has decommissioned more than 7,300 wells with about 2,100 sites reclaimed. This work has allowed municipalities, farmers, ranchers and recreational users to reconnect with what the landscape has to offer.
