Description
This study compared potential economic benefits deriving from the creation of a new Alberta upgrading project producing refined products and petrochemicals to those deriving from the expansion or modifications of existing refineries to utilize synthetic crude/bitumen blends (SynBit) or neat synthetic crude (SCO). The study examined the potential of two market regions, U.S. Midwest and California, to absorb a substantial volume of refined products from an Alberta upgrading/refining project.

The Hydrocarbon Upgrading Task Force (HUTF) was established in February 2004 to explore synergies and opportunities within the refining and petrochemical industries. The task force was a joint government and industry initiative and consisted of 119 members from 85 organizations representing government and industry, including oil sands producers, refiners, and petrochemical stakeholders.
