1 OIL SANDS & NORTH AMERICAN ENERGY SECURITY February 21, 2012 Florida International University Janet Annesley, Vice President

2 Canada is a Global Energy Player #3 Canada is third in the world in natural gas production. #1 Canada has the world’s largest uranium reserves. #2 Canada is second in the world in hydro- electricity generation. #3 Canada is 3 rd to Saudi Arabia & Venezuela in crude oil reserves

3 Oil Sands Resource, Production, Markets

4 The Global Energy Context Significant energy demand growth:  Population, standards of living Need all forms of energy:  Increasing role for renewables  Continuing reliance on hydrocarbons  Increasing role for non- conventional crude oil & natural gas Technology is a key lever for sustainable growth  Production  Cost competitiveness  Environmental performance Current Policies Scenario 4

5 Global Crude Oil Reserves by Country Source: Oil & Gas Journal Dec. 2010 Includes 170 billion barrels of oil sands reserves Restricted (79%) Open to Private Sector Canada’s Oil Sands 56% Other 44% World Oil Reserves Open to Private Sector 5

6 Top 10 World Crude Oil Producers in 2010 Sources: U.S. Dept. of Energy, Energy Information Administration & CAPP 2025

7 Oil Sands Projects in Three Deposits

8 Two Methods of Oil Sands Recovery Photo: ConocoPhillips - Surmont Schematic: Devon - Jackfish Drilling: 80% of reservesMining: 20% of reserves 8

9 Canadian Oil Sands and Conventional Production Forecast (2011-2025) ActualForecast In Situ Mining Conventional Heavy Conventional Light Pentanes/Condensate 9

10 Canadian & U.S. Crude Oil Pipeline Proposals 10

11 Canada’s Oil & Products Export to U.S. 16% 21% 15% 11

12 Potential Tanker Markets for Canadian Oil Sands Production China Persian Gulf Japan Taiwan ~ 8,600 N Miles ~ 4,500 N Miles Prince Rupert/Kitimat Jose/ La Cruz Los Angeles Japan Taiwan Target Markets ~ 5,400 N Miles 1,400 N Miles Far EastU.S West Coast Japan Taiwan Korea SantaCruz 1,790 Competitive travel distances for Canadian supply to both markets Source: Enbridge Pipelines 12

13 Environmental Performance

14 Global Energy Related Emissions GHG emissions from oil sands:  just over 1/1000th of global GHG emissions  6.5% of Canada’s GHG emissions  29% reduction in intensity from 1990 Global EmissionsCanada’s 2% 14 Sources: 1. U.S. Dept. of Energy/EIA 2. Environment Canada

17 Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Oil Sands Energy Efficiency  Using less energy input  Reducing energy waste/losses  Capturing waste heat  Cogeneration power/steam Improved recovery processes  Lower temperature extraction  Additives to reduce use of both water and energy (steam)  Use of electricity rather than steam  Underground combustion rather than steam Carbon capture & sequestration  Most effective at upgraders Oil Sands GHG Emissions/bbl 29% g co2 eq./mj 19902008

18 Land Use and Reclamation in the Boreal Forest 662 16 18

19 Water Use and Quality  Mining  2-4 bbl of water per bbl of oil  80-90% recycle  Currently use 0.5 per cent of the annual flow of the Athabasca river  To protect during low flow periods withdrawals are restricted Drillable (Insitu)  0.25-0.5 bbls of water per bbl of oil  90-95% recycle  No water from Athabasca River  Shift to using saline water from sub-surface aquifers Newer projects are using 100% saline water for steam Enhanced monitoring systems  Science based, transparent, credible  Recent federal and provincial government reviews to enhance monitoring 19

20 Environmental & Social Performance Focus on both crude oil / oil sands & natural gas Reputation = Performance + Communication  Continuous performance improvement  More effective messaging (breadth, channels, transparency)  Improved industry collaboration Key concerns expressed regarding oil & gas development:  Local / regional environmental & social impacts (air, land, water, biodiversity)  Global climate change  Role of fossil fuels in future energy system

21 Royal Society of Canada Report Environmental & Health Impacts of Canada’s Oil Sands Industry Science-based, independent analysis of the environmental aspects of Canada’s oil sands Addresses many of the issues and perceptions of oil sands development:  Reclamation is not keeping pace, but sustainable reclamation is achievable  Water use does not threaten viability of the Athabasca River  No impact on Athabasca water quality/ecosystem and no evidence of impact on human health in downstream communities  Tailings technologies are emerging, but tailings inventory is growing  GHG emissions per barrel are reducing but growing production creates a challenge in meeting international commitments  Minimal impacts on regional air quality December 2010

22 Responsible Canadian Energy Oil Sands Report  Principles & Performance  Measurement & Reporting  Transparency

23 Oil Sands Advertising - Communicating with the Public To demonstrate that industry takes these issues seriously and what is being done by “real people” to address them.

24 Success Stories

25 Summary “3Es”  Environmental performance  Energy security & reliability  Economic growth Competitiveness & social license are “must haves” Reputation = Performance + Communication  Technology is key performance lever We need to work together & we all need to step up! A great opportunity for Canada and the U.S.……needs innovative, creative, committed, determined people to make it happen!
