Summary Information

  • Operator: Canadian Natural Resources
  • Country: Canada
  • Location: Conklin, Alberta
  • Production start: 2007
  • Partners: Devon 100%
  • Type: Oil
  • Estimated Reserves: 300 Million per Phase
  • Production Volume: 35,000 bpd per phase

+++ Description

  • The Jackfish Project uses Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) Technology
  • The combined fluids from the well pads is separated into bitumen, gas and water.
  • Bitumen flows to a pipeline transportation system. The gas is combined with natural fuel gas and burned in the steam generators.
  • The water is transferred to the Water De-oiling System for further treatment.
  • The project is being developed in 3 phases, each with production capacity of 35,000 bpd

+++ Contractors

  • **WorleyParson:** Prefabrication and piperack and equipment module construction services for phase 2
  • **Aker Solutions:**
    • Phase 2 - 1 FWKO Vessel c/w desand system; electrical heat tracing; insulation (vessel + piping) & sample skid (c/w pump & cooler) - 15 OD x 115
    • Phase 3 - FWKO Vessel c/w desand system; electrical heat tracing; insulation (vessel + piping) & sample skid (c/w pump & cooler)

+++ History

  • 2004 - Approval given for phase 1 of the project
  • 2007 - First oil produced
  • 2008 - Approval granted for Phase 2
