Alberta’s two largest cities on the way to economic recovery

By Michael Franklin, CTV News, May 25th., 2017

The information, published by the Conference Board of Canada, says that while energy investment will remain low, oil production will increase, meaning the worst is over for the industry.

The price of oil is expected to reach $60 US per barrel by the end of the year. READ MORE HERE

Varcoe: OPEC deal sets stage for continued Alberta recovery

By Chris Varcoe, Calgary Herald, May 24th, 2017

A pivotal moment for the province is unfolding Thursday some 8,000 kilometres away in Vienna, one that could ultimately smooth the runway for a continued economic liftoff in 2017 — or kick the skids out of the nascent rebound.

Members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) are gathering at the organization’s headquarters in Austria to extend production cuts that helped revive oil markets late last year. An agreement to throttle back production for another nine months was struck, following some encouraging comments made by oil ministers from Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Iran.  GRAB THIS ARTICLE

Alberta land sales surge as producers rush into new shale pocket

By Nias Williams, Reuters, May 25th, 2017

CALGARY, ALBERTA -- Alberta oil and gas land sales have reached levels not seen since 2014 thanks to a rush to buy land in an oil-rich pocket of the Duvernay shale play that was until recently written off as being uneconomic.

Resurgent land prices are a rare bright spot for Canada's energy industry, dominated by northern Alberta's oil sands projects, a sector that global companies have withdrawn from this year because of high costs and slow returns on capital.

The Duvernay East Shale Basin is more similar to shale plays in the United States, where hydraulic fracking can unlock oil trapped between rocks in a matter of months.  FOLLOW THIS STORY
