    Overcoming the constraints: Unlocking Canada's oil & gas potential

    Panel Oil

    Canada is the fifth largest producer of crude oil and natural gas globally. In 2018 western Canada experienced incredible price volatility as oil supply growth overtook available pipeline export capacity. In response the government took the extraordinary step to intervene and impose production limitations for 2019. Meanwhile, Canada announced that it would be entering the global LNG game. This session will discuss the extreme oil price volatility that occurred in western Canada in 2018, Canada’s entrance to the global LNG game, the importance of advancing pipeline infrastructure, and the way forward for the Canadian industry.
