Who we are:

The Canada-Newfoundland and Labrador Offshore Energy Regulator (C-NLOER) is the independent agency originally created as the Canada-Newfoundland and Labrador Offshore Petroleum Board (C-NLOPB) in 1986 by the federal and provincial governments under the Atlantic Accord Implementation Acts. Legislative amendments that came into effect in 2025 expanded our mandate to include offshore renewable energy and changed our name. The C-NLOER regulates oil and gas exploration and development and will regulate future renewable energy projects in the Canada-Newfoundland and Labrador Offshore Area. Our mandate includes oversight of worker health and safety, environmental protection, resource management and industrial benefits. We currently employ roughly 100 professional staff and have a current annual budget of approximately $28 million.
