How parcels are matched

1. Rights. The parcel's rights, as worded in the Crown's offering notice, include the Halfway. Rights descriptions are placed on the Crown's stratigraphic zone order (each notice lists a depth code for the zones it names), so “below the base of the Doig to basement” includes the Montney while “surface to the top of the Montney” does not, and “excepting” lines are removed.

2. Area (approximate). There is no published outline for the Halfway that this site can use, so the area is approximate and built from the Crown's own notices: every township where a petroleum and natural gas rights description names the Halfway (as a boundary, an “in the” interval or an exception), plus the ring of townships around them. It is shown as the dashed outline below. This is a convenience boundary, not a geological map: it can miss places where the Halfway exists but was never used to split rights, and it can include fringe townships where it is thin or absent.

Most Crown parcels are sold “surface to basement”, so these are parcels that convey Halfway rights, not necessarily parcels bought for the Halfway.
