加拿大拥有世界最大的油砂资源。据称,从蕴藏的油砂中按现有技术可以采出的石油储量超过沙特阿拉伯的。什么是油砂?油砂是一种含油的砂岩层,砂粒外面包覆着沥青,沥青量大约占油砂重量的10.5%。这种沥青中含有50%~60%的原油,30%~35%的胶质,15%~20%的沥青质。加拿大人早就研究怎样开发利用这一宝贵资源。现在加拿大最大的油砂开发项目是辛克鲁德,其意思就是“人造原油”。辛克鲁德公司开发利用着加拿大最大的浅层油砂矿——阿萨巴斯卡油砂矿。年产原油达1000万吨。
Canada has the world’s largest oil sands resource. Allegedly, the reserves of oil that can be extracted from existing oil sands according to the prior art surpass those of Saudi Arabia. What is oil sands? Oil sands are an oil-bearing sandstone that is coated with bitumen outside and contains about 10.5% of the weight of oil sands. The bitumen contains 50% to 60% of crude oil, 30% to 35% of gum, and 15% to 20% of asphaltenes. Canadians have long been studying how to exploit this valuable resource. Now Canada’s largest oil sands development project is Sinclair, which means “artificial oil.” Sinclair company to develop and utilize Canada’s largest shallow oil sands - Athabasca oil sands. With an annual output of 10 million tons of crude oil.
