Description
Abasand Oils Ltd. is significant because it represents the rise and fall of a pioneering oil sands effort. It was the first oil sands plant to pipe a refined product. At its peak, Abasand Oils Ltd. had 150 employees and produced 500 barrels of bitumen per day. Although these numbers are very small compared to companies today, the plant was a pioneer of its time and will not be forgotten.
