These leases include the Hangingstone, Chard, Corner and Thornbury areas which are expected to contain approximately 1.7 billion barrels of recoverable bitumen resources. These fragments (with waste rock largely removed) are then mixed with hot water and pumped to large tanks at the primary Upgrader, where the sand, water and bitumen are separated. During the process of oil extraction from oil sands, bitumen, a semi-solid oxidized form of oil, is removed using thermal recovery techniques that consume about 3.1 barrels of water per single barrel of oil 1. Loading a truck, it will take 2 to 4 shovel Taking just those that relate to oil sand production roughly 70% plan on using thermal methods to recover deeper oil (mainly SAGD, though there are small amounts of THAI, cyclic steam and electrothermal). In the Athabasca region for future development. For the exclusive Canadian license to its technology to extract bitumen from fractured carbonates. The technology can be implemented using established equipment and extraction materials while allowing for recycling of material and reduced thermal treatment. Kerogen in oil shale is a solid that is either The ultra-heavy oils are recovered in situ by heat injection, mostly as steam. This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced reservoir engineer with well-developed technical knowledge of thermal recovery to join a financially stable, entrepreneurial oil sands organization with an excellent track record of success. Than 20% with conventional techniques, Dhinsa says . Solid tar sand bitumen is mined and liquified in surface plants. The University of Alberta, Canada, has inked an option agreement with Strata Oil & Gas Inc.
