Summary Information
- Operator: Shell
- Country: Canada
- Location: Peace River, Alberta
- Production start:
- Partners:
- Type: Heavy Oil
- Estimated Reserves:
- Production Volume: 80,000 bpd (Planned)
Description
- The project is expected to produce about 80,000 barrels per day of heavy oil using steam recovery methods
- There will be 13 well pads in the initial development
- An inter field pipeline system will transport steam to the wells and produce bitumen, water and natural gas that will be sent to central processing facilities.
- The central processing facilities will separate bitumen from water and natural gas, which can then be used to produce steam.
- Diluted bitumen is expected to be exported to existing North American refineries.
