i enjoyed reading the article written by Elsie Ross on heavy oil as the story is starting to get around. I did find one error which I'd like to bring to your attention. Near the end of the article you quote Palliser's water handling costs as $15/bbl for new wells and $22/bbl for reactivated wells; in fact these are the all-in operating costs for the wells as water handling costs are under $2/bbl for trucking and disposing. Knowledgeable readers will likely know the water handling costs quoted are unrealistic but some might take the information at face value. Our heavy oil wells have netbacks ranging from $25/bbl to as high as $40/bbl which would not be possible if water handling costs were as high as quoted.
