- Title
Canadians commercialise heavy oil breakthrough.
- Abstract
The article discusses a new process for extracting heavy oils. Duvernay Petroleum will use toe-to-heel-injection (THAI) process developed by the University of Bath, Great Britain, to produce oil from the oil sands deposit at Peace River, Canada. Chemical engineering Professor Malcolm Greaves of the University of Bath says that the THAI process is considerably more efficient than existing processes and is more environmentally friendly. The article included a graphic illustration of the THAI process.
