RE:RE:RE:Will Cenovus Buy Meg? [You are confusing me, if not everyone else too.
is fort hills mining their oilsand with shovel and dump truck or use the new propane assisted SAGD???
Remember that the Fort Hills SHOVEL/DUMP TRUCKS mine operates under the SURFACE OVERBURDEN {maybe 50 meters DEPTH ???} while the SAGD reservoir operations of Chistina Lake (CVE) must be HEATED in the 360 to 420 METERS UNDERGROUND and PUMPED to the surface !!!

MOST people DON'T know this but the Fort Hills oilsands MINE is a LOT LESS ENERGY INTENSIVE and therefore CARBON-DIOXIDE (CO2) INTENSIVE per barrel of BITUMEN produced than the SUPERIOR SAGD operations like the industry leading CVE Christina Lake followed closely by MEG Christina Lake !!!
This is my opinion only.
