CERI Commodity Report – Crude Oil Editorial Committee: Ganesh Doluweera, Paul Kralovic, Dinara Millington, Megan Murphy, Allan Fogwill About CERI The Canadian Energy Research Institute is an independent, not-for-profit research establishment created through a partnership of industry, academia, and government in 1975. Our mission is to provide relevant, independent, objective economic research in energy and related environmental issues. For more information about CERI, please visit our website at www.ceri.ca or contact us at [email protected].
Introduction Oil sands is a mixture of sand, clay or other minerals, water, and bitumen, which is a heavy and extremely viscous oil at room temperature. The Alberta estimated reserve is about 167.2 billion barrels1 under the current economic assumption. Oil sands can be surface mined using truck and shovel to move sand saturated with bitumen from the mining area to an extraction facility. However, if the deposit is deeply buried more than 75 meters below the surface, in situ thermal or solvent-based operation is used to reduce the viscosity of the bitumen and then pumped to the surface. The most common in situ processes in Alberta are Cyclic Steam Simulation (CSS), and Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD). Once separated from the gas, water, and other materials, the bitumen product is diluted and shipped for sale or upgraded. Each of those operational steps requires a significant amount of energy, and there is a wide variability of energy consumption among oil companies depending on the geology, process design, and operational framework. Figure 1 highlights average annual energy intensities by project type expressed as GJ of energy per barrel of extracted bitumen. Figure 1: Alberta Oil Sands Energy Intensities by Project Type

Oil Sands Energy Intensities, Dynamics, and Efficiency Opportunities Alpha Sow
“If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it.” This maxim has become a slogan for oil sands operators since the drop of oil prices caused by the global supply glut. Companies are looking to survive in a new normal environment of low prices, weak demand growth, and carbon regulations. Reducing energy intensity of hydrocarbon development is paramount for many stakeholders, policy makers, investors, and the public at large. As it pertains to the oil sands industry, the new regulations stipulate an absolute emissions cap of 100 Mt CO2eq per year. Policy makers and the provincial regulator are facing the task of allocating the remaining 30 Mt CO2eq emissions; what approach will be adopted is not yet clear. While the new regulations take place, the oil sands industry is looking for a fundamental way to reduce production costs and improve profit margins. Energy and emissions intensities are strongly linked to operational costs. Reduction in oil sands energy and emisisons intensities leads to some reduction in operating costs. The intent of this article is to review the oil sands operations energy intensities and the potential energy and emissions reductions in the current economic and carbon policy environment. A brief discussion is provided on how the allocation of the remaining 30 Mt CO2eq can be achieved.

Oil sands energy demand is a mix of thermal, electricity, hydrogen, and diesel. The proportions of these energy forms vary according to bitumen extraction method and processing type. Thermal energy comes from burning natural gas, synthetic, fuel or associated gas. It is primarily used to produce steam, hot process water, and heating fuel during operations. Steam, for example, is generated through boilers and injected in-situ (SAGD and CSS) for bitumen mobilization, and is used in combination with hot process water in the mining during the separation process. Steam can also be generated during the bitumen upgrading phase from integrated heat recovery process in coking and hydrocracking unit and used in sulfur plant or hydrotreating unit. Heating fuel is used in upgrading to drive fractionation, distillation and cracking processes, and hydrogen production. Electricity is used to power pumps, compressors, heaters, mixers, and valves in oil sands operations. Hydrogen is mainly produced from steam methane reforming and used for the upgrading process. Hydrogen is essentially used for the primary upgrading stage in hydro-cracking and later in the secondary upgrading phase to produce a higher value, sweet synthetic crude oil. Diesel is widely employed in mining operations as fuel for trucks and shovels, and to a large extent for transportation of oil and gas operation staff and materials. Oil sands energy intensities2 are subject to variability. As shown in Figure 2, the variability is a function of reservoir characteristics, operation and project phase. The stack of each energy type is directly related to the processes operation. Diesel is mostly related to mining, and hydrogen for upgrading, but each process uses electricity and thermal energy (natural gas, fuel gas, etc.). Figure 2 highlights the share of each energy type, the blue point represents the median energy use while its variability is represented by the length of the vertical bar from different oil sands projects in Alberta. The green point shows the average empirical data for the industry in 2014; energy consumption data is sourced from the Alberta Energy Regulator.

Potential Energy Efficiency Gains Given the unstable and current low oil price environment, US shale oil production, global oil supply glut, increasingly stringent emissions regulations, and social pressure to reduce GHG emissions, the growth of the oil sands industry will depend on how quickly it reduces the energy intensity of its operations. Oil companies are looking to address these challenges through energy efficiency in the existing facilities and piloting new technologies for upcoming projects where energy intensity and cost reduction drive the decision process. Brownfield projects: Oil sands operators are looking
to increase efficiency by using steam solvent process and retrofitting existing infrastructure to draw down costs.
The most promising energy efficiency reduction method for brownfield SAGD3 facilities constitutes trimming energy consumption at each stage of the process. Energy savings start at the water treatment step where magnesium from produced water is separated and used to absorb silica (silica removal) in the lime softening process unit reducing the need for additional magnesium. The treated water is boiled in an Once-Through Steam Generator (OTSG) to generate steam at 80% steam quality, while the remaining 20%, which is known as blowdown is sent to an evaporator where 50% of it is converted to steam and the remaining is retained in the sludge. Through a combination of steam flood management that relies on analytics of data physics, an optimum mix of steam and solvent is sent at the right temperature and pressure into the reservoir. The total cumulative impact of processes and technologies that

can be applied to the existing field/facilities is able to achieve 48% (CERI Study 164) reduction of natural gas consumption. In-situ greenfield facilities offer more flexibility in the early design of the project, reducing capital costs and providing more opportunity for energy intensity reduction. Steam solvent and pure solvent-based processes can achieve greater performance when combined with steam flood management.
The greenfield steam-solvent configuration
combines energy efficient processes at each step of the operation.
The Rifle Tube Once Through Steam Generator (RT-OTSG) for generating the steam, steam solvent extraction such as the Solvent-Aided Process, Steam Assisted SAGD and the front-to-back (FTB) water treatment process for filtration by electrocoagulation can achieve cumulatively 65% (CERI Study 164) natural gas use reduction. Pure solvent technology such as the NSolv process which uses a solvent for bitumen recovery need limited thermal energy – 80% less than the standard requirement. The thermal energy is used for solvent heating and purification and the treatment of produced water. A 2012 Suncor and Jacobs study4 on oil sands mining operations estimates potential reduction of energy consumption by 13% for mining and upgrading. The energy efficiency in mining operations is achieved by introducing energy monitoring, heat exchanger and efficient fire heater, control systems and some process technologies that change the mining and extraction process. In the same way, upgraders’ energy consumption can be reduced by integrating heat exchange, process technology changes, control system, better energy monitoring, change of fuel type use and avoiding flaring and hydrocarbon loss. For greenfield upgrading, operators are considering partial upgrading technologies. The most promising processes are cavitation, catalyst-induced refining, desulfurization, deep conversion, pyrolysis and thermal cracking. This results in a bitumen product (API 19 to API 22.9) 5 that is lighter and less sweet than fully upgraded synthetic crude oil (SCO) but less viscous than pure
bitumen with less energy consumption and cost than full upgrading. Figure 3 shows the potential energy efficiency achievable through process and technology changes. Figure 3: Potential Energy Efficiency Achievable by Process Type

Emission Allocation Under the 100 Mt CO2eq. Cap To extend the analysis to a macro level, the oil sands industry ranks as one of the major GHG emitters among the Canadian sectors, and it’s estimated that GHG emissions from the sector will continue to grow from current 70 Mt/year CO2eq. CERI estimates that emissions will reach 100 Mt/year CO2eq. in 2028.6 Alberta had successfully adopted a regulatory framework to limit oil sands emissions at the 100 Mt CO2eq cap7 and applied an economy-wide carbon tax in its recent Climate Change Leadership Plan. The cap includes operating upgrading facilities and excludes future upgrading or partial upgrading and future co-generation. There is speculation on how the provincial regulator and the Alberta Government will allocate the remaining 30 Mt CO2eq. without distorting competition and inducing sustainable behaviors for oil companies. Since 2013, the AER has been working with the University of Pennsylvania Penn program on regulation to become a world class regulator.8 The working document suggests “flexible regulatory approaches promise more cost-effective outcomes, as they give regulated entities the opportunity to choose lower-cost means of achieving regulatory outcomes.” But as follow-up research9 shows, relying on this assumption as a working framework, and relying on tools such as Industry Wide Best Practices10 will not always lead to significant

change in private sector firms’ environmental performance. Although it can achieve a positive outcome, “these results are unlikely to be significant or reliable enough to make such strategies the mainstay of society’s approach to environmental protection.” 11 The challenge is to set a regulatory mechanism complying with best-in-class standard. The standard should be flexible, leaving choices to oil companies to comply at the lower cost and delivering full potential of their oil resources for Albertans. Many methodologies can be considered on how to allocate the remaining 30 Mt CO2eq; the discussion sets an assumption that the current GHG emissions and onstream production are fixed (70 Mt CO2eq) and the emissions room left by decommissioned fields is replaced by higher intensity of depleting oil fields. The following options can be assessed, but one of them seems to fulfill the best in class regulator standard and the spirit of the 100 Mt CO2eq cap “achieving a sustainable oil sands growth.” 1- First come first self-serve basis: emissions are allocated as companies’ applications are approved. This approach will lead companies to hedge by using a multiphase application process and will hold credit for the future. Future development will be limited, and few companies will be allowed to invest because of limited emissions credit. 2- Best in class based on emission intensities of the first quartile: allocating the remaining emissions cap to the first quartile of more efficient entities. This approach will distort concurrence because emissions are directly tied to the energy consumption and geology condition. Companies with high SOR operations will face restrictions to grow; companies who have good leases will thrive. In such a system, the best in class regulator metrics such as fairness will be strained. The best in class might promote an implicit carbon cost differential among the industry, the barrier for new entrance and burden the development of some oil deposits. 3- Continuous Improvement: the regulator might find it challenging to implement this method due to difficulty of setting up a baseline (base year), measuring the progress, and monitoring changes. This type of approach could fail to satisfy fair cost regulation and verifiability.
4- Weighted Production approach: will cause past dependence and favour big players with more diverse oil plays; it allows major companies to choose a mix between oil deposits, project phase-startup, production ramp up, and older fields. Production growth will be achieved by incremental extensions of the existing fields. 5- Moving Threshold and Fair sharing approach: companies will be granted temporary emissions right (3-year period) at the current carbon price as it seeks regulatory approval from the AER. The right to pollute is bounced back for adjunction every three years to replenish the 30 Mt CO2eq reserve. The new round of emissions allotment will be based on the Shamir Secret Sharing Scheme,12 where each company’s GHG emissions are set as an incomplete share of “the secret”. The regulator sets a goal to achieve a unique composite metric combining the four major environmental impacts: land use, water, GHG emissions, venting and flaring. The composite metric is set as a secret unknown to oil producers and built up from oil companies performance data, collected during the three-year period. Each company’s pollution right in the new GHG allocation round will be based on production and the overall environmental performance during the last three-year phase of the project development. The threshold being unknown to oil companies, they will try their best to reach the best performance achievable in each area, because its future oil production depends on the pollution rights gained. There is no threshold target, so companies will compete to get the bigger share of the 30 Mt CO2eq with the best knowledgeable practices. The moving threshold and fair sharing are reliable, and not subject to bias. When the 100 Mt CO2eq cap is exceeded, a specific carbon rate is applied to transfer the excess emissions to the economy. When a new company comes in without history, a statistical attribution factor is assigned to the company for the next three years. The current regulations – carbon tax and oil sands cap targets – are framed to incite innovation adoption without burdening Alberta oil producers in the North American market. Allocating the 30 Mt CO2eq without giving preferential treatment of picking winners and losers might be challenging.

None of the approaches above are perfect. However, some of them limit the structural burden linked to unfavorable reservoir and medium quality lease resources. Less energy-intensive oil sands means a more sustainable and competitive industry. CERI Study 164 shows emissions and cost reduction objectives are not adversely related and can be achieved through technology and process innovation.

B1: World Petroleum Supply and Demand Balance (million barrels per day)
Notes: 1. Totals for OECD and non-OECD supply include net refining gains; specific regions/groupings within each do not. 2. OPEC demand is an estimate based on
historical annual data. 3. Balance for World equals global stockbuilds (+) and stockdraws (-) for crude oil and petroleum products and miscellaneous gains and loss-
es. Regional surpluses (+) and deficits (-) are balanced through net-imports and stock changes in the short-term, and net-imports in the longer term. Supply includes
crude oil, condensates, NGLs, oil from non-conventional sources and processing gains. Demand is for petroleum products.

C1: US Petroleum Supply and Demand Balance (million barrels per day)
Notes: 1. Does not balance because of unaccounted for crude oil. Regional surpluses (+) and deficits (-) are balanced through net-imports/transfers and stock chang-
es in the short-term, and net-imports/transfers in the longer term. 2. As of most recent month. Supply includes crude oil, condensates, NGLs, oil from non-
conventional sources and processing gains. Demand is for petroleum products. Source: EIA Petroleum Supply Monthly.

Geographical Specifications
1. The World: OECD is comprised of countries from three regions: North America (Canada, Mexico, US); Europe (Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic,
Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, the Slovak
Republic, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, UK); and Asia-Pacific (Australia, Japan, New Zealand, South Korea). OPEC is comprised of Persian Gulf (Iran,
Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates) and non-Persian Gulf countries (Algeria, Indonesia, Libya, Nigeria, Venezuela). Non-OECD is
comprised of countries from three regions: Former Soviet Union (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kirghizstan, Moldova, Russia,
Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, Uzbekistan); Asia (including non-OECD
Oceania); and non-Asia (Africa, Middle East, Latin America, and non-
OECD Europe). 2. United States: East (PADD I) – New England
(Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island,
Vermont); Central Atlantic (Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, New York,
Pennsylvania, and the District of Columbia) and Lower Atlantic (Florida,
Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia). Mid
-West (PADD II) – Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan,
Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South
Dakota, Tennessee, and Wisconsin. South-Central (PADD III) – Alabama,
Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico and Texas. North-West
(PADD IV) – Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming. West
(PADD V) – Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon,
Washington.
3. Canada: East is comprised of Ontario, Manitoba, Quebec and the
Maritime provinces (New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova
Scotia, and Prince Edward Island). West is comprised of Alberta, British
Columbia, Saskatchewan and the northern territories (NorthWest
Territories, Nunavuut, and Yukon).
Additional Notes
1. Petroleum and oil refer to crude oil and natural gas liquids (NGLs),
whereas crude oil refers to its namesake and field condensates.
Condensates derived from natural gas processing plants are classified as
NGLs. 2. The spot price is for immediate delivery of crude oil or refined
products at a specific location. Spot transactions are generally on a cargo
by cargo basis. In contrast, a futures price is for delivery of a specified
quantity of a commodity at a specified time and place in the future. 3.
Crude oil sold Free-On-Board (FOB) is made available to the buyer at the
loading port at a particular time, with transportation and insurance the
responsibility of the buyer. Crude oil sold Cost-Insurance-Freight (CIF) is
priced at a major destination point, with the seller responsible for the
transportation and insurance to that point. A “Delivered” transaction is
similar to a CIF transaction, except the buyer in the former pays based on the quantity and quality ascertained at the unloading port, whereas in a CIF
transaction, the buyer accepts the quantity and quality as determined at the loading port. 4. Processing gain is the volume of which refinery output is
greater than crude oil inputs. The difference is due to the processing of crude oil products, which in total have a lower specific gravity than crude oil. 5.
Unaccounted for crude oil reconciles the difference between crude input to refineries and the sum of domestic production, net imports/exports, stock
changes and documented losses (in the U.S.). 6. Totals may not equal the sum of their parts in the statistical tables due to rounding.
