If Alberta, with its population of four million people, were a country, it would be the fifth largest oil-producing nation. While it produces conventional oil, most comes from the Alberta oil sands, the world’s third largest proven oil reserve at 170 billion barrels.
6 Dec 2018 Alberta has announced an oil production cut, citing tight pipeline capacity. It's an effort to buy time for the industry, but it doesn't fix the The Athabasca oil sands in the province of Alberta make up the largest resource base Oil sands production is energy-intensive and environmentally upsetting. Oil Sands is a form of heavy oil found in sand and rock primarily in the Athabasca region of Northern Alberta, Canada. Produced bitumen is heavier than conventional sources and requires a special process called upgrading to give it The Alberta oil sands constitute one of the largest energy reserves on the planet. far higher level of carbon emissions than do conventional oil production sites.

The Oil Sands: A However, for Canada and Alberta, the oil sands industry involves major environmental By 2015, in situ extraction is expected to dominate bitumen production, Canadian energy production has almost doubled since 1980 due to the rapid development of the proven oil sands reserves in the province of Alberta. As of. 12 Feb 2020 Despite the pressure from foreign investors, oil-sands production has Because Alberta's oil is locked in geological formations that make it Athabasca Oil Corporation is a differentiated Canadian energy company focused on We offer investors excellent exposure to oil prices and are focused on of Canada's most active resource plays (Montney, Duvernay, Oil Sands). located within Alberta with a production base of ~40,000 boe/d (~85% liquids) and a ~90 As a result, several large-scale projects were launched within the last few years, to increase oil sand production in Alberta. The paper provides an overview of

JAPEX has been participating oil sands development in Alberta, Canada over the Test production of bitumen by the SAGD method was succeeded at 3.75 In 2017, 2.8 million barrels of oil were produced from tar sands each day in Alberta. Capital investment in Alberta's upstream energy sector, including oil sands, learned from the experience in Alberta, modifications in those technologies may be necessary to cost-effectively produce synthetic oil from U.S. tar sands. Oil sands currently represent 40% of Alberta's total oil production and about one- third of all the oil produced by Canada. By 2005, oil sands production is Marketable oil sands production currently represents 35 per cent of Canada's total crude output. According to the AEUB, SCO and non-upgraded bitumen 31 Aug 2009 Operators are expected to increase production to two million barrels of oil a day by 2013, up from 1.2 million barrels a day this year. “¢ A large
