Oil for tomorrow


Technologies developed for the oil sands and heavy oil resources of Alberta are vital to more than tomorrow's oil supply. They represent solutions to problems encountered throughout the oil industry.

Problems like managing costs, dealing with labor shortages, handling sulfur, controlling air emissions, producing oil under difficult conditions, mitigating surface impacts, recycling produced water, capturing and sequestering carbon dioxide, and more.

While it finds solutions to those problems, the oil sands and heavy oil industry develops an unconventional resource that indeed represents oil supply crucial to many tomorrows.

Progress in the oil sands and heavy oil producing regions of the world means progress in the entire oil industry...and in a world that needs oil.

The Oil Sands and Heavy Oil Technologies Conference & Exhibition is the premier forum for the people who make that progress possible.

Don't miss this opportunity to present your product or service to a powerful, influential audience. Join PennWell Petroleum Events in this third year conference and exhibition.
