In response to changes in the marketplace, Alberta Energy led a project team that studied Alberta's investment competitiveness with a focus on upstream natural gas and conventional oil development. The study assessed the ways in which Alberta's competitive share of energy investment has shifted, and the factors contributing to such shifts. It also considered ways in which Alberta can improve its ability to attract natural gas and conventional oil investment.
