The major oil sands deposits in Alberta each have their own particular characteristics of depositional environment and bitumen properties which affect the selection of recovery processes. The Cold Lake Oil Sands in NE. Alberta are estimated to contain ca 25 billion cu m of bitumen. The depth of burial dictates the use of in situ processes for bitumen recovery, and Esso Resources has been pursuing laboratory and field pilot studies of potential processes for over 20 yr. This study provides a brief overview of these studies and the results which have been obtained.
