What is Petroleum?
Natural Gas Oil
When we’re talking about petroleum, we’re talking about natural gas and oil.

Canada’s Oil & Gas Industry
• 3rd largest natural gas producer
• 6th largest crude oil producer (rank increasing with oil sands)
• Employs about 550,000 people in Canada (directly and indirectly)
• Energy is now Canada’s largest export sector (took over from
automobile industry in 2003)
• Industry payments to governments: $18 Billion
• Over 3,000 products we use everyday are made from petroleum
• Long history: first well in Canada was in 1858

Oil Sands Sector
Oil sands operations sector: Extraction, production and upgrading of bitumen
Bitumen:Heavy, viscous form of crude oil, often found in oil sand deposits
Operations types:• Mining: activities to explore and
recover oil sands reserves through open pit mines
• In situ: activities to explore and recover oil sands reserves in place or in situ, by drilling wells
• Upgrading: converting bitumen into a product with a lower density and viscosity

Labour Shortages
Oil sands operations are very technical and require a highly skilled workforce. Shortages of some occupations pose a greater risk than others:
• Power engineers
• Sustainability-related occupations – stakeholder relations, environmental, health and safety roles
• Human resource professionals
• Supply chain workers – logistics, procurement and contract management
• Managers and supervisors
• Industry-specific workers – petroleum engineers and geoscience professionals

Direct, Indirect and Induced Jobs
• Approximately 380,000 direct and indirect jobs will be supported by investment in the oil sands sector over the next decade
• Majority of jobs are expected to be in Alberta • Jobs will also be sustained across Canada particularly in:• Ontario • British Columbia • Quebec • Saskatchewan • Manitoba • Atlantic Canada
• Overall, more than half a million jobs will be sustained across Canada (direct, indirect and indirect) over the next decade.
• Additional jobs are also created or ‘induced’ in the broader economy.
