That same year the port shipped almost 13 million barrels of oil or about 24 Aframax tanker loads to the US. The direct 50 billion figure is understated as it does not include indirect federal taxes on production and taxes on products ie.
89 Most oil producing countries rely on tar sands for only a small part of their overall.
How much oil does alberta produce. On an annual basis the Alberta oil and gas extraction sectors annual contribution has ranged from 27 billion to 6 billion or about 15 per cent to just under 32 per cent of Albertas total net contribution to the federal governments finances. 53 of this was produced by surface mining and 47 by in-situ techniques. 7 The scope of Canadas tar sands oil extraction has been on the rise for years.
48 billion in resource revenues eg. Albertas oil sands proven reserves equal about 1654 billion barrels bbl. In 2014 Alberta produced on average 590000 barrels per day of crude oil.
Thats less than a tanker load. May surprise you to learn that Alberta does not receive these prices for its oil. The oil sands accounted for 63 of Canadas oil production in 2019 or 295 million barrels per day.
Weve previously discussed how there are different types of oil. In 2014 Alberta produced roughly 22 million barrels per day of bitumen. As a result of oil and natural gas activity the provincial government receives.
The point of it is to show that while Saskatchewans per capita oil and gas production is high - it does not in itself justify Saskatchewans highest-in-Canada per capita Greenhouse Gas GHG emissions. In 2015 Canada imported about 300000 barrels per day bblday of refined products mostly from the US. Lighter oils generally receive higher.
A tar sands development in Northern Alberta Canada. Oil tankers are being loaded in Vancouver but instead of heading to vaunted Asian markets theyre heading south to California. Despite producing over 4 million bblday of crude oil Canadas refining capacity is only 2 million bblday just shy of the 23 million bblday consumed throughout the country.
In 2014 approximately 15 of Albertas total oil. Not least of the reasons for saying this is that Albertas oil and gas production 642 tonnes of oil equivalent TOE per person is 23. 333 billion in economic activity generated by these business between 2015 and 2016.
It went from producing just over one million barrels per day bd in 2006 to around three million bd in 2018 accounting for almost 4 of the worlds total daily oil production.

Oil production in Alberta was 184 million cubic metres in January 2021 up 36 compared to January 2020. By contrast production from Albertas oil sands ie bitumen has increased over the past few decades. Albertas oil sands has the third largest oil reserves in the world after Venezuela and Saudi Arabia.
The oil sands have an estimated 325 billion of capital investment to date including 102 billion in 2019. Oil sands were by then the source of 62 of Albertas total oil production and 47 of all oil produced in Canada. 20000 businesses that directly or indirectly depend on oil and gas activity including 399 Indigenous-owned businesses.
The price a producer receives for a barrel of oil depends on the type of oil where its produced and where it is purchased. As of 2010 oil sands production had increased to over 16 million barrels per day 250000 m 3 d to exceed conventional oil production in Canada.
