NWR Sturgeon Refinery - CCUS Projects

The NWR Sturgeon Refinery, located in Alberta, Canada, is a state-of-the-art facility designed to convert bitumen from Alberta's oil sands into higher-value products such as diesel, diluent, and natural gas liquids. The refinery employs advanced technologies for carbon capture and storage (CCS) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions significantly. Captured CO2 is used for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) or stored in geological formations. The NWR Sturgeon Refinery emphasizes sustainability, operational efficiency, and environmental responsibility, contributing to the production of cleaner fuels and the reduction of carbon emissions in the oil and gas industry.
