The provincial government's regulator for the oil and gas industry has fined a Calgary company it says built pipelines without acquiring proper licences first.

The Alberta Energy Regulator ordered AlphaBow Energy Ltd. to pay $25,000 after it built two pipeline segments in November 2021 near Hardisty, Alta.

"While AlphaBow had applied for pipeline licences, the AER had not approved the applications prior to construction," the agency wrote in a statement. The AER says the fine is based on the "seriousness of the contravention" and its effect on public safety, the environment and Alberta's resource production.
