The evolution of Canada's oil sands industry over three decades is visible from space, as newly released NASA satellite images show its growing mark by the Athabasca River. Oil is a powerful and versatile source of Canadian energy that will be a part of the global energy mix for decades to come. Canada has about six billion barrels of remaining oil reserves located outside the oil sands, found primarily in Alberta, Saskatchewan and offshore Newfoundland and Labrador. These oil fields are or were economically important to the Canadian economy: Oil Springs, Ontario. Turner Valley oil field, Alberta. Leduc oil field, Alberta. Pembina oil field, Alberta. Athabasca oil sands, Alberta. Peace River oil sands, Alberta. Cold Lake oil sands, Alberta. Duvernay Most of the Canadian oil sands are in three major deposits in northern Alberta. They are the Athabasca-Wabiskaw oil sands of north northeastern Alberta, the Cold Lake deposits of east northeastern Alberta, and the Peace River deposits of northwestern Alberta. The oil sands contribute over 60 percent of that output and are vital to the west’s economy. Canadian output continues to grow because of investments made when global supplies were tighter. The other is the Keystone XL pipeline — a new segment of the existing Keystone Pipeline system, which begins in the Alberta, Canada, oil sands, also called tar sands (use of either term is controversial), and ends in Patoka as well as points in Texas along the Gulf of Mexico.
The three largest partners – in descending order – are Canadian Oil Sands Ltd. , Imperial and Suncor. They own 74% of the company. They own 74% of the company.
Alberta's oil sands' proven reserves equal about 165.4 billion barrels (bbl). Crude bitumen production (mined and in situ) totalled about 2.8 million barrels per day ( Oil sands deposits are found in dozens of countries throughout the world. The main deposits are found within Cretaceous rocks in Venezuela and Canada. These fields are located in the Athabasca-Wabasca, Cold Lake, and Peace River Buried under Canada's boreal forest is one of the world's largest reserves of oil.

The Athabasca oil sands, also known as the Athabasca tar sands, are large deposits of bitumen or extremely heavy crude oil, located in northeastern Alberta, Canada – roughly centred on the boomtown of Fort McMurray. These oil sands, hosted primarily in the McMurray Formation, consist of a mixture of crude bitumen

Most of the Canadian oil sands are in three major deposits in northern Alberta. They are the Athabasca-Wabiskaw oil sands of north northeastern Alberta, the Cold Lake deposits of east northeastern Alberta, and the Peace River deposits of northwestern Alberta.
Over 99% of Canadian oil exports are sent to the United States, and Canada is the United States' largest supplier of oil. [5] The decision of accounting 174 billion barrels (28 × 10 ^ 9 m 3 ) of the Alberta oil sands deposits as proven reserves was made by the Energy Resources Conservation Board (ERCB), now known as the Alberta Energy and Utilities Board (AEUB).
