In 2012 Statoil increased oil sands production by more than 60% and reduced CO2 intensity by almost 24%. These results are published in the Statoil 2012 Oil Sands Report.

The report demonstrate clear progress in reaching ambitious targets for responsible oil sands production in Canada.

The Oil Sands Report contains performance indicators which measure production and energy consumption – as well as emissions intensity and quality and use of air, water and land – at the Leismer Demonstration Project and in the Kai Kos Dehseh (KKD) leases in northern Alberta.

"In 2012 we increased oil sands production by more than 60% and reduced CO2 intensity by almost 24%. We reduced water usage, improved our steam-oil ratio and planted 267,000 trees to reclaim land. We are proud of the results we have achieved and are encouraged to continue our efforts to reach our ambitious targets," says Statoil's senior vice president in Canada, Ståle Tungesvik.
