Description

This study explores the competitiveness factors and growing industry trends related to procurement decisions made when oil sands buyers award contracts to Metal Fabrication and Machinery Manufacturing (MFMM) suppliers during the development, construction and operation of mining, in-situ and upgrader projects. The study helps to provide market intelligence for the development and execution of growth strategies in areas where Alberta’s MFMM sector has a competitive advantage. It also provides a better understanding of the needs of Alberta’s oil sands industry, describes how to strengthen relationships between Alberta’s MFMM sector and oil sand project owners, and support continued economic growth in the province.

Description

Albertans do not receive their fair share from energy development. The royalty rates and formulas have not kept pace with changes in the resource base and world energy markets. Albertans own the resource. The onus is on their government to re-balance the royalty and tax system so that a fair share is collected. This must be done within an equitable and flexible administrative framework that maintains Alberta's competitive edge for energy investment.
