Grow your career with us

You are on a journey to join an exciting Company and be part of our success story to improve lives by developing resources sustainably. Here we offer you an exciting and dynamic work environment and will equip you with the know-how that will stretch and enhance your career journey.

Role Summary:

THE COMPANY
Headquartered in Calgary, Alberta and with operations near Fort St. John, British Columbia, Pacific Canbriam Energy Limited (“PCE”) is committed to our 5Cs business philosophy of creating benefits for our Community, Country, Climate, Customer, and Company.

PCE believes that the quality of its resource is a strategic asset that differentiates the company. Early efforts to identify a scalable, low cost supply source led to a focus in the Altares and Kobes Montney regions in northeast B.C. The Montney is a world class resource and Altares is among the highest quality areas. The region possesses a unique combination of thickness and over-pressure, which contributes to highly efficient stacked resource development and strong well deliverability. Pacific Canbriam’s Montney resource also possesses a high liquids content and overall rock quality that translates into a highly competitive supply cost.

We believe that teamwork is the foundation of our success. We have established a culture where problem solving skills and critical thinking are highly valued. Individual technical disciplines collaborate to achieve common objectives and continuously improve results. PCE’s strategy and its culture are centred on this commitment.

PCE is committed to protecting people and the environment through responsible natural resource development. We are proud to engage in industry-leading sustainability practices and promote continuous improvement throughout all areas of environment, social and governance (ESG) topics.

OUR FACILITIES
Our fully sweet natural gas operation is centralized around our main Altares shallow cut refrige plants located approximately 124 kms northwest of Fort St. John, BC near Hudson’s Hope, BC. We have a Plant, Field, and water handling division all supported by our in-house maintenance department, complete with a warehouse and maintenance shop. We generate power, recycle our produced water and make our fuel gas. We commissioned a third phase of expansion at our large central processing facility in February 2022 and are working towards completing another phase of expansion by the end of next year.

PCE has invested extensive amount of capital in our water infrastructure to facilitate high water recycling rates and a full life cycle approach to water management. We are continuously expanding our storage requirements and evaluating internal water disposal options to align with our growth strategy. PCE strongly believes in sustainable development and we are continuously implementing improvements within our operations to lower emissions.
