216 Economic comparison of the thermal and hot-water process for recovery of oil from tar sands1978-11A comparison of the economics of the Hot Water and Thermal Process for recovery of oil from the tar sands at Sunnyside is presented using a plant size of 25,000 B/D of hydrocarbon products. The Thermal Process will require an investment of approximately $120,000,000. The product is a low viscosity f...
217 Economic evaluation of oil shale and tar sands resources located in the state of Utah: Phase 11981-02-15Managing public lands for maximum social benefit is becoming an increasingly complex task. The growing need for domestically produced mineral raw materials and energy, and the conflicting interests over the use of public lands, have added new dimensions to the management issues. This report covers t...
218 Economic evaluation of oil shale and tar sands resources located in the state of Utah: Phase 21982-10Technically accurate economic evaluation of Utah resources is essential to the future health of Utah's economy and for the sound management of Utah's lands and mineral/hydrocarbon resources.
