The WCSB contains one of the world's largest reserves of petroleum and natural gas and supplies much of the North American market, producing more than 450 million cubic metres (16 billion cubic feet) per day of gas in 2000. It also has huge reserves of coal.
The Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin, the largest producing basin in the country, stretches across four provinces and two territories. Industry Structure. Canada is unique in that, on top of a prolific conventional oil and gas industry, much of the country’s production comes from the oil sands.
Dec 8, 2022 · The Western Canada Sedimentary Basin contains some of the largest oil and gas reserves in the world. Two geological formations in the WCSB are driving oil and gas development in Canada today: the McMurray and the Montney. Renella has worked extensively in both.

This chapter summarizes the methodology followed in creating the oil and gas field outlines shown in each relevant Atlas chapter. Also included is a summary of oil and gas reserves and production distribution, again in accordance with Atlas stratigraphic intervals. The original assignment for this project was to provide up-to-date and reliable oil ...
Cumulative production totals for oil and gas, by stratigraphic interval, are shown as tables accompanying the field outline maps in each of the 13 relevant Atlas chapters. These data are reproduced below (Tables 32.1 and 32.2) to allow comparison of reserves and production capability for each interval. Also represented are the reserves and producti...
A major contribution of data and resources was provided by Digitech Information Services Ltd. of Calgary and by staff members Brian Hall and Sandie Rodger. P.J. Lee of the Geological Survey of Canada aided greatly by providing numerous printouts of reserves and production data. Ken Drummond reviewed this chapter and his suggested improvements are m...

Canada is fortunate to have crude oil and natural gas resources under parts of every province and territory – and off each of our eastern, western and northern coasts. Canada’s largest source of oil and gas is the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin (WCSB), which covers: Northeastern British Columbia. Most of Alberta.
Mar 29, 2022 · The decomposition of marine animals, plants and algae several hundred million years ago formed what is now known as the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin, which holds almost all of Canada’s onshore oil and gas reserves.
