1.7 Trillion Bbls estimated to be in place in Alberta’s oil sands
300 Billion Bbls - ultimately recoverable with current technology
An Oil Sands Primer....Resource
Mining – 20% of the oil sands resource is less than 200 feet deep - 2.5% of Surface Area
An Oil Sands Primer....Mining
Oil Sands Mining....Knowing the Numbers
60 billion barrels = 240 billion tonnes mined
An Oil Sands Primer.... Securing Canada's Energy Future
We will achieve this by...•Encouraging learning and innovation in everything we do, •Pushing the limits of what technology can accomplish,
