N-Solv™ is a patented in-situ technology that uses warm solvent to extract bitumen from oil sands efficiently, sustainably, and economically. Currently, N-Solv™ is preparing to demonstrate the commercial readiness of the technology at its field pilot plant located near Ft. McMurray, Alberta, scheduled to start production in May 2013.
Efficiency
  • 85% less energy required for extraction than Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage.
  • In-situ upgrading  solvent gravity drainage  cleaner, lighter oil  solvent-based gravity drainage  higher product value
Economic Benefit
  • Lower CAPEX investment than steam-based in-situ technologies.
  • Lower OPEX from elimination of steam production and water treatment plants
  • Lighter, more valuable oil product
Sustainability
  • Zero process water usage
  • Low input energy + in-situ upgrading = 93kg CO2e per barrel avoided emissions
