International Pipeline Conference & ExhibitionCalgary Telus Convention Centre - Calgary, AB, Canada
Experts predict that Canada will remain the single largest source of imported oil into the United States. The facts are clear that the oil sands deposits in Alberta Canada will be a significant factor in the Oil & Gas industry, for the decades ahead.
The oil sands of Alberta in western Canada are undergoing an investment boom worth more than $100 billion. From 2007 to 2016, the Alberta Energy and Utilities Board (EUB) projects total real investment in Alberta’s oil sands (surface, mining, upgrading, in situ, and support services to reach Canadian $118 billion. Oil sands output is set to rise from about 1.2 million barrels a day to an expected 3 million b/d by 2016, and perhaps 4 million plus by 2020. That could make Canada the world’s fourth-biggest oil producer after Saudi Arabia, Russia and the United States.
Today’s oil pricing levels have made extraction of oil from tar sands much more attractive than in the past. The reserves are so vast in the province of Alberta, that they will help America’s energy needs for the next century. Canada is now the new frontier in non-OPEC oil developments. Canada’s oil sands will help meet the global energy demand over the next 100 years.
As the boom continues, share your ideas, experiences, technology, and expertise with major industry players who must react quickly to the rapid expansion. Plan to attend the second annual Oil Sands and Heavy Oil Technologies Conference & Exhibition, July 15 – 17, 2008 at the Calgary TELUS Convention Centre in Calgary, Alberta Canada.
