Canadian Oil Sands are the World Largest Free-Market Source of Hydrocarbons, Reports Visiongain

27 Feb 2013 • by Natalie Aster

Oil sand companies have been innovating new ways for extraction of oil from bituminous resources over the past few decades. Only since 2000 did oil production from oil sand resources become a viable option and as international oil prices have risen ever since, extraction of oil through steam injection and mining has become financially profitable.

The Canadian oil sands are the largest free-market source of hydrocarbons in the world and are the third largest oil resources after Venezuela and Saudi Arabia. The estimated recoverable oil from the Canadian oil sands is between 169-174 billion barrels and unlike other regions of the world, Canadian and US governments have raised few national barriers to control these resources. The future growth of oil sand production is influenced by a number of factors such as the price of Canadian crude oil, the capacity of pipelines out of Alberta and access to other export infrastructure such as railways and shipping routes to international markets.
