Abasebenzi basezimayini besanti ye-oyile base-Alberta bavelise irekhodi le-1.6 yezigidi ze-bbl/ngosuku lwebhitumene ngo-2022, okuphindwe kabini kumndilili ka-2009. yendawo yemibhobho, imiyalelo yokunciphisa kunye nobhubhane we-COVID-19.
Kodwa lithini ikamva lokwembiwa kwesanti yeoli?Ngokungafaniyo nezibonelelo ezikwi-situ, imigodi emitsha ifuna imvume yomanyano, enokuba yinkqubo ende nengaqinisekanga.Xa kudityaniswe nekhabhoni esondelayo kunye ne-net-zero aspirations ngo-2050, akunakwenzeka ukuba naziphi na iiprojekthi ezintsha ziya kungeniswa ukuze zivunywe ngumanyano nanini na kungekudala.
Nangona kunjalo, ayizizo zonke ezilahlekileyo, njengoko zininzi iiprojekthi zokwandiswa kunye ne-debottlenecking esele zinemvume ekhoyo.
IIPROJEKTHI ZOKUTshintshwa KWEMINE
Imigodi emininzi ekhoyo kulindeleke ukuba ichithwe kule minyaka imbalwa izayo.Zombini iHorizon kunye neMildred Lake's North Mine zicwangciselwe ukuqalisa ukuphelisa imisebenzi ngokukhawuleza, kwaye zombini zivumile izicwangciso zokutshintsha umgodi esele zisebenza.
I-Horizon ibangelwa ukuhambisa imisebenzi yemigodi kwi-Horizon South, eyayisaziwa ngokuba yi-Joslyn North pit, kwaye i-Mildred Lake iya kufudukela e-Mildred Lake Extension West (MLX-W) kwiminyaka embalwa ezayo.Zombini kukufuduswa kwezixhobo zemigodi ngokungqongqo, kwaye aziyi kubandakanya naziphi na iiplanti ezintsha zokusetyenzwa.
Umgodi olandelayo oza kupheliswa yi-Suncor's Base Plant, esele ineminyaka eli-10 yobomi bam.I-Base Mine Extension (i-BMX) ayinazo iimvume ezikhoyo, kwaye i-Suncor isanda kulibazisa izicwangciso zokungenisa isicelo sayo solawulo kwi-2025, ehambelana nomhla wonyulo olulandelayo lwe-federal.Ngokungafaniyo ne-Horizon South kunye ne-MLX-West, i-BMX iya kufuna izixhobo ezintsha zokulungisa, ekubeni umgodi ubekwe kwicala laseNtshona loMlambo i-Athabasca.
DEBOTTLENECKING PROJECS
I-Horizon ineeprojekthi ezincinci ezimbalwa kwiincwadi, ezibandakanya ukuthembeka okuncinci kophuculo, indawo entsha yoNyango lweFroth, kunye neplanti yokutsalwa emhadini (IPEP).Ngelixa okwangoku akukho xesha limiselweyo lokugqitywa, ezi projekthi zintathu zinamandla okwandisa imveliso phantse nge-100,000 bbl/ngosuku.
Umgodi we-Imperial's Kearl unendawo yokukhula ngaphakathi komda ogunyazisiweyo wolawulo.Inkampani ithi ijonge ukunyusa imveliso nge-10%, okanye i-25,000 bbl / ngosuku, ngo-2030. Ngexesha elikufutshane, uKearl ujonge ukunyusa ukubuyiswa kwe-bitumen ngokudibanisa umthamo ongaphezulu we-flotation.
GREENFIELD UKWANDISA
Zintathu izandiso ezinkulu esele zinemvume yomanyano endaweni.
I-Syncrude's Aurora South yamkelwa njengenxalenye yeProjekthi ye-Aurora ngeminyaka yoo-1990.I-Aurora yavunywa ekuqaleni kwi-430,000 bbl / ngosuku kwizigaba ezine - ezimbini e-Aurora North, kunye ne-Aurora South.I-Aurora North inomthamo ofakiweyo we-225,000 bbl / ngosuku, ishiya "indawo yokulawula" enye i-200,000 bbl / ngosuku e-Aurora South.Nangona kunjalo, oku kuya kufuna ukwandiswa okukhulu kophuculo lwe-Mildred Lake, into engenakwenzeka ukuba yenzeke.Inkampani ithi i-Aurora South iya kuphuhliswa emva kokuba i-MLX iphelile, ekulindeleke ukuba ibe malunga ne-2040.
I-Albian Sands nayo inezigaba ezibini ezingaphuhliswanga zokwandisa eJackpine.UMgodi weJackpine wamkelwa oololiwe ababini, kodwa nguLoliwe woku-1 kuphela ogqityiweyo.Owayesakuba ngumqhubi we-Shell Canada naye wafumana imvume yokuvelisa i-100,000 bbl/ngosuku kuMgodi woKwandiswa kweJackpine, osemantla nje oqeshiso olukhoyo lweJackpine.
Nangona kunjalo, zombini imigodi ye-Albian Sands esebenzayo inomthamo ofakiweyo we-340,000 bbl / ngosuku, ohambelana ngqo ne-Scottford Upgrader.Ngoko ke nakuphi na ukwandiswa komgodi kungafuna ukwandiswa komxhasi, okanye isiseko sokuvelisa ibhitumene enokuthengiswa.
UYONGEZA KONKE
Umthamo wokuvelisa ibhitumene ofakiweyo phakathi kwabasebenzi basemgodini yi-1.8 yezigidi bbl/ngosuku, 200,000 bbl/ngosuku ngaphezulu komndilili wemveliso yonyaka ophelileyo.Leyo yiziqhamo eziphantsi, ezimele indawo yokuphucula esele ivunyiwe kwaye isendaweni.
Xa kudityaniswa nezicwangciso zokwandisa esele zisemisebenzini, imveliso yebhitumene yombiwa inokuba yi-intshi ekufutshane ne-1.9 yezigidi zebbl/ngosuku ngo-2030.
I-Canadian Natural Resources inenye i-200,000 bbl/ngosuku "yegumbi elisecaleni" e-Albian, elinokubona ukukhanya kwemini ngakumbi endleleni.Nangona kunjalo, oko kuya kufuna zombini amaxabiso e-oyile awomeleleyo, kunye nokucaca ngakumbi kwimimiselo yekhabhoni yexesha elizayo.
