The Sable Offshore Energy Project (SOEP) is a consortium based in Halifax, Nova Scotia which explores for and produced natural gas near Sable Island on the edge of the Nova Scotian continental shelf in eastern Canada. SOEP produced between 400 and 500 million cubic feet (14,000,000 m 3) of natural gas and 20,000 barrels (3,200 m 3) of natural ...
Sable Island's heliport contains emergency aviation fuel for search and rescue helicopters, which use the island to stage further offshore into the Atlantic. When the Sable Offshore Energy Project was active, the island was designated as an emergency evacuation point for crews aboard nearby drilling rigs. In 2017, Exxon Mobil began the plugging ...
In 1967 Mobil drilled the first well off Nova Scotia, the Sable Offshore Energy Project C-67 well.

Drilling stopped there because the technology did not exist to handle the super-pressures the well encountered.
Since 1999, the Sable Offshore Energy Project (SOEP) is an ongoing initiative to conduct natural gas exploration along the Nova Scotian continental Shelf. This project produces over 14,000,000 m 3 of natural gas and 3,200 m 3 of liquid natural gas daily. [4] The major partners include ExxonMobil, Shell Canada, Imperial Oil, and Pengrowth Energy.
The Sable Project produces between 400 and 500 million cubic feet of natural gas and 20,000 barrels (3,200 m 3) of natural gas liquids every day. [ 35 ] Farther northeast, major oil deposits have been discovered and are being produced in the Jeanne d'Arc Basin , offshore Newfoundland .
