By 1991, its daily oil production was 90,000 ...
The development of which produced even more oil. The field was eventually determined to be 32 km (20 mi.) long and 6½ km (4 mi.) wide. By 1953 the oil field supported 926 wells and was producing almost 30% of the entire province's output. The large volume of crude being produced made the construction of large transmission pipelines essential. [32]

Alberta estimated that the Athabasca deposits alone contain 35 billion barrels (5.6 × 10 ^ 9 m 3) of surface mineable bitumen and 98 billion barrels (15.6 × 10 ^ 9 m 3) of bitumen recoverable by in-situ methods. These estimates of Canada's reserves were doubted when they were first published but are now largely accepted by the international ...
