GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS AND CANADA’S NATURAL GAS AND OIL INDUSTRY

3 May 2022

The goal of this alliance is to work Additionally, the federal budget announced in April 2021 proposed to introduce an collectively with the federal and investment tax credit for capital invested Alberta governments to achieve in CCUS projects along with other financial net zero emissions from oil sands tools, with the goal of reducing emissions operations by 2050. [...] E METHODOLOGY IN SITU OIL MINED OIL NATURAL GAS OFFSHORE TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH 25 Ongoing Collaboration and Research Research and development of new technologies across the natural gas and oil industry is active and continually evolving. [...] To clearly demonstrate the ongoing emission intensity reductions across the natural gas and oil industry arising from advanced technologies and process efficiencies, CAPP developed trend graphs using a bottom- up analysis for oil sands and offshore sectors that utilizes individual facilities’ emissions data to create an overview of the sector’s total emissions. [...] Within the oil sands sector, the biggest driver of direct emissions is natural gas combustion for steam or hot water generation, while the largest sources of indirect emissions are from diluent, land use, and imported electricity from the Alberta power grid (which currently uses mostly coal and natural gas-fired generation). [...] Canada is a world leader in transparent data collection, and the Canadian oil and natural gas industry has among the strongest public data in the world.
