Industry presses first field development projects off Canada
The pace of oil development off Canada's east coast is accelerating with two projects under way. Onshore site preparation has been in progress for more than a year on a $5.2 billion (Canadian) project to develop Hibernia oil field on the Grand Banks off Newfoundland. The first sustained commercial oil flow from a Canadian offshore field is to get under way this spring from the smaller Cohasset- Panuke project off Nova Scotia, 25 miles southeast of the Sable Island natural gas area. This paper reports that several other fields classified as significant discoveries on the Grand Banks - Terra Nova, Hebron, and Whiterose, for example - are still being evaluated as potential commercial producers.
