MNR's Role

The Petroleum Resources Centre (PRC) is located in London, Ontario and houses geological, engineering, inspection and support staff. The PRC manages well and production data and houses a drill sample and core library.

The PRC provides governance over Ontario's oil, gas, salt and underground storage industries including policy development and field delivery of licensing, inspection, enforcement and Crown land tenure programs.

Our vision is to contribute to the environmental, social and economic well being of the province through the safe and sustainable development of Ontario's oil, natural gas, salt solution-mining and underground storage resources and the protection of natural interests.
