But oil companies aren't rushing to add capacity or build new refineries. Far from it. The number of operating refineries in Canada peaked at 45 in 1958 and has steadily declined ever since. Paradoxally, peak refining capacity was reached in 1979 at 2.23 million bbl/day. If Canada has so much oil, why is our gasoline so expensive? Even if we could get cheap Alberta oil flowing into every refinery across Canada, there’s nothing forcing those refineries to Refineries in Canada 2015 (barrels per day) [Text Version] [Larger Image]Source: NRCan and NEB Petroleum Products Market. The petroleum products market in Canada is highly competitive, prices paid by consumers may vary based on market conditions. Canada’s first refinery in 30 years could rescue battered oil producers Producers hit by a slump in Canadian crude prices can earn an extra $23 a barrel by sending it to the new Alberta refinery In fact, Canada operates slightly more oil refineries per capita and has more oil refinery capacity per capita than the United States. Fuel is expensive in Canada for a variety of reasons. First, the Canadian dollar is weak, and oil is a globally traded commodity. Second, average taxes on Canadian gasoline are quadruple that of the United States.
Dec 14, 2018 Alberta Premier Rachel Notley's call for new oil refineries is unlikely to persuade is awash with refined oil and proposed Canadian refineries have had “You have to figure out what kind of bread to make: Do people want
There are 29 oil refineries that are located in Texas. A few of these oil refineries are San Antonio Refinery, Texas City Refinery, Tyler Refinery and Port Arthur Refinery. So it is generally safe to assume that if Canada could make more money by refining more of its own oil, someone would have thought to do that by now. Case in point: Even the refineries we already And an abundant supply of crude oil, light and heavy from both sides of the border, will likely prevent a major decline in North America's refining capacity. More details on the capacity and location of Canada's 17 oil refineries can be found on the "Projects" menu. But to others, whether or not it’s worth building refineries in Canada is a matter of perspective. In interviews with The Huffington Post, several observers noted that these upgrades and expansions have tended to occur at refineries owned by the same U.S. companies that are developing Canada’s oil patch. The U.S. has 142 refineries. Canada has 19, with most clustered around Edmonton, Sarnia, Ontario, and Montreal. The number of refineries in both countries has declined over the years, due to stricter environmental standards, lower fuel demand, and the decreasing availability of sweet crude, The balance is concentrated in several other provinces and territories. Saskatchewan and offshore areas of Newfoundland in particular have substantial oil production and reserves. Alberta has 39% of Canada's remaining conventional oil reserves, offshore Newfoundland 28% and Saskatchewan 27%, but if oil sands are included, Oil refineries across Canada and capacity in barrels per day (bpd; one barrel is about 159 litres): East Coast.

Burnaby Refinery The refineries in western Canada have access to western Canadian crude oil production and domestic crude oil supplies meet all of their feedstock needs. As shown in Figure 11, refineries in western Canada are well connected to local crude oil production by pipeline systems. These refineries use western Canadian crude oil because it is close. But oil companies aren't rushing to add capacity or build new refineries. Far from it. The number of operating refineries in Canada peaked at 45 in 1958 and has steadily declined ever since.
