呵呵,我还是呼吁大家来卡尔加里吧!
昨天本地报纸的消息是,因为有中国的大量投资,阿省的石油产量到2020年新增50%,2025年新增81%.
搜索了一下近年的中国石油投资到目前为止已经达到181亿美元合人民币1000多亿.
大家想想,这么大的投资会带来多少相关产业的兴旺?要知道卡尔加里是世界各大石油公司的总部所在地,也是相关的石油工程服务等公司的所在地.石油行业的兴旺,必定作为本地的一个强劲的经济生长点,带动各个行业的经济增长,人口的聚集.各个行业的对人才的需要,劳动力的需要都将大幅增长.
所以,来卡尔加里,埃德蒙顿将是很好的就业选择.

CALGARY - New oilsands projects and investments have changed Canada's long-range supply picture for the better, according to a new industry report.
The emergence of several new players in Alberta's oilsands will lift overall crude production between 2020 and 2025, a period that wasn't expected to see any production gains in last year's forecast, the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers said Wednesday.
"This improved outlook for the industry coincides with the new investments in oilsands projects by major Chinese companies," the association said in its 2010 to 2025 forecast.
Sinopec Corp. and PetroChina, both state-owned corporations, injected more than $2 billion into the flagging oilsands in 2009, buying stakes in Athabasca Oil Sands Corp.' s and Total SA's Northern Lights projects.
Both undeveloped projects had been languishing in an industry hard-hit by dropping crude prices and a global recession dampening demand.
More robust commodity prices and a less volatile investment climate in the latter half of 2009 pulled a number of projects off the shelf and back into action, said CAPP spokesman Greg Stringham.
This year alone, investment in Alberta's oilsands is expected to jump by $2 billion to $13 billion, up from $11 billion last year. More recently, China Investment Corp. invested $817 million in a project with Penn West Energy Trust, and Sinopec paid $4.65 billion US for a stake in Syncrude Canada, the largest oilsands operation in the world.
Oil prices have trended upward this year, and jumped three per cent, or $2.39, to close at $74.38 US a barrel Wednesday. The surge came after reports of strong demand from China and a 1.8-million-barrel draw last week on inventories in the United States.
Increased investment in the oilpatch has the association predicting Canada will be producing about 3.5 million barrels of bitumen per day, or 81 per cent of total crude production, by 2025 under its best case scenario.
Overall crude production is seen climbing to 3.88 million barrels per day by 2020, from 2.72 million barrels last year, and reaching 4.34 million barrels per day by 2025.
A more conservative outlook predicts production will stall at 3.2 million bpd in 2015, before falling back to 2.98 million bpd in 2025.
The previous forecast had shown slower growth in light of delays linked to lower crude prices and tight credit markets, which had halted some oilsands projects in Alberta.
The new forecast certainly is plausible, as most industry observers had forecast oilsands production to double by 2020, said Edward Jones analyst Lanny Pendill.
More importantly, the outlook reinforces that the future of Canada's oilsands is still bright, Pendill said.
"If you had gone back 12 months ago, with the pullback in oil prices that we were dealing with, the massive cost inflation and everything else, a lot people were questioning what the future of oilsands was going to look like," he said.
As it stands, oilsands production is expected to nearly triple within the next 15 years and represent the lion's share of Canada's crude supply, according to CAPP.
In contrast, conventional oil production will continue to decline in share, with light oil supply sliding as many producers ship oil south rather than invest in costly upgraders. Producers also anticipate using more light oil as diluent to ship bitumen to various markets.
Bruce Edgelow, ATB Financial vice-president of energy, agreed CAPP's detailed outlook will provide investors with a strong base to evaluate Canada's oil resources, particularly with new offshore U.S. production in peril.
"There's a fair number of continental investors looking at Canada in light of what's happening in the Gulf of Mexico," Edgelow said. "There's a growing lens turning north with respect to the oil story."

Chinese investment in Canada's oilsands Reuters May 14, 2010
- April 13, 2010 Penn West Energy Trust said it plans to sell a 45 per cent stake in a Canadian oilsands project to China Investment Corp(中国投资公司). for $817 million. Penn West, Canada's No. 2 energy trust, will contribute oilsands properties near Peace River valued at $1.8 billion to a partnership being set up with China Investment. The Chinese company will provide $312 million in upfront cash and then pay $505 million in development costs for the project.
- April, 2010 Sinopec Corp(中石化)., China's second-largest oil producer and top refiner, agreed to buy ConocoPhillips' 9.03 per cent stake in Syncrude Canada Ltd. for $4.65 billion.
- August 2009 PetroChina (中石油)agrees to buy a 60 per cent stake in two undeveloped oilsands properties held by Athabasca Oil Sands Corp. that could eventually produce as much as 500,000 barrels per day.(the cost is 1.9 billion)
- April 2009 Sinopec (中石化) acquires an additional 10 per cent stake in Total SA's undeveloped Northern Lights oilsands project for a price that has not yet been disclosed. The purchase brings Sinopec's stake in Northern Lights to 50 per cent. Construction of Northern Lights, once expected to cost $10.7 billion, is on hold.
- April 2005 CNOOC Ltd(中海油). pays $122 million for 16.7 per cent in privately held MEG Energy Ltd., which is developing an oilsands project in northern Alberta that could eventually pump up to 210,000 bpd, while other properties in MEG's portfolio could eventually produce 500,000 bpd, according to company documents.
