Green Car Congress

SEPTEMBER 9, 2013

BP Egypt announced a “significant” gas discovery in the East Nile Delta. The wireline logs, fluid samples and pressure data confirmed the presence of gas and condensate in 38m (125 feet) net of Oligocene sands in Salamat. The deepwater exploration well, named Salamat, is the deepest well yet drilled in the Nile Delta.

Study finds plausibly high volumes of Canadian oil sands crudes in US refineries in 2025 would lead to modest increases in refinery CO2 emissions

An analysis of the US refining sector, based on linear programming (LP) modeling, finds that refining plausibly high volumes of Canadian oil sands crudes in US refineries in 2025 would lead to a modest increase in refinery CO 2 emissions (ranging between 5.4% to 9.3%) from a 2010 baseline, depending upon the supply scenario.

Comparison of the percent differential for WTW (well-to-wheel) GHGs from gasoline produced from WCSB oil sands using different production processes relative to gasoline produced from reference crudes. The proposed Project is not likely to impact the amount of crude oil produced from the oil sands.
