Jackfish Thermal Heavy Oil Project

Summary Information

• Operator: Devon
• 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
