The Government of Alberta, Canada, is now allowing curtailed operators to drill new conventional oil wells without being restricted by production limits. Oil production in Alberta in September 2019 was 16.75 Non-conventional (or oil sands) production, which constituted 83.8% —Sonya Savage, Minister of Energy.
