Hmmm. #alberta wants another #pipeline to ship #bitumen to the westcoast of #britishcolumbia
Yet, there's a huge well cleanup that the public may eventually have to play as demand and profits fall in the future.

More #dilbit makes no sense whatsoever and any public money going into it is pure theft. #ABpoli
#Bitumen should be made into #carbonfiber, #paving and #lubricant not moved as liquid which is expensive, filthy & spill prone. #bcpoli
Listening to #Alberta government people ( current & past ) talk about a bitumen pipeline to the North Coast of #BC is painful
They always talk about #Indigenous equity partnership as if all it takes is $
The Coastal nations don’t care about $
A #bitumen spill can’t be cleaned up in the ocean

#Naptha required to dilute #bitumen is no longer reaching #Venezuela. This likely means it must shift to other methods like #DRUbit to export bitumen via train. As it mostly goes to China it can reach #ChancayPeru or ports in #Ecuador or #Colombia. Only the latter is particularly US-resistant.
I don't doubt there's plenty of research & development going on, but, there's vast fields of carbon in Canada that no one should ever burn, mostly #bitumen for #paving (full of ashphaltenes). Can #CNT production start with that feedstock rather than say carbon monoxide? Any advantages to that?
#SKpoli #SKNDP be ready this guy is failing to adapt to the #potash or #legume or #grain or #bitumen market changes.

A New Oilsands Pipeline? What Politicians Won't Admit by Andrew Nikiforuk via @thetyee.ca thetyee.ca/Analysis/202...

'Canada is the world’s fourth largest #fossilfuel producer, with production continuing to increase. Alberta, the epicentre of #bitumen production, is aiming to double its production by 2035.'

"Oléoduc" is the best word I have ever seen for oil pipeline!
Also... oily Canada reputation spreading far and wide.

Alberta has a pipeline path already that they can enlarge.
Tell ya what Alberta, you run those pipes over Banff and Jasper and through Lake Louise(because they never leak, right?) and we'll talk.

This #MOU puts O&G industry first and Canadians last. More #pipelines, more #bitumen & vague promises of “net-zero someday” aren’t a climate plan—they’re a delay tactic. #AB & #Canada are handing out concessions while locking us into decades of emissions and environmental risk. #cdnpoli #bcpoli

3/8 It's the law of supply & demand. #U.S. #refineries have limited capacity for #HeavyOil.
A massive new supply, conveniently located for cheap ocean transport, would "depress the price fetched by low-quality oilsands #bitumen from #Alberta," which has a high break-even cost.

🇺🇸 🇨🇦 TRUMP’S VENEZUELA PLAN BAD FOR ALBERTA’S #OILSANDS 🇨🇦 🇺🇸
Climenhaga argues Premier Smith’s "favourite foreign autocrat" (Trump) planning regime change in #Venezuela is a dire threat to #Alberta.
A U.S. coup would be designed to flood the market with cheap, easily accessed #bitumen.

2/5 The toxic mixtures contain water, sand, bitumen residue and chemicals harmful to fish and wildlife, stored across northern Alberta since oilsands operations began.
A government-appointed committee pitched release standards as one of four key policy recommendations.
