The Sable Offshore Energy Project (SOEP) is a consortium based in Halifax, Nova Scotia which is attempting to locate and produce natural gas found near Sable Island on the edge of the Nova Scotian continental shelf in eastern Canada. SOEP produces between 400 and 500 million cubic feet (14,000,000 m3) of natural gas and 20,000 barrels (3,200 m3) of natural gas liquids every day.
The first tier was completed in 1999 resulting in the development of the Thebaud, North Triumph, and Venture natural gas fields.
