@MikeCox86177818 @anonfmresident @PremierScottMoe been heavy sour crude from the oil sands. Bitumen from the Athabasca region is very heavy and high in sulphur, comparable in quality to Venezuelan Boscan crude. About 50% of Alberta's bitumen is upgraded into synthetic sweet crude oil
@MikeCox86177818 @anonfmresident @PremierScottMoe The remaining 50% is blended and sold to market (primarily the US) as heavy sour crude streams. 

Outside of the US, the world's oil supply is becoming increasingly heavy and sour while transportation fuels are becoming increasingly light, high-quality and ultra-low in sulfur.

@TheDemocrats have a dilemma. They need to choose between their #environmentaljustice voters or #oilandgasindustry donors. Put your heads together with the @WhiteHouse and look at bad poll numbers again.

Not crude oil and natural gas, but raw materials such as cobalt, tungsten or lithium will shape geopolitics in the future

With the energy transition, the importance of metals that are used for batteries is increasing.

However, the fall in the price of many raw materials from 2012 onwards put questions about security of supply into the background, especially in European politics and industry.

To this day, Asian and above all Chinese companies dominate battery production, so that a considerable part of future value creation and jobs in the European automotive industry are in danger of being lost.
