Preliminary evaluation of Speswhite kaolin as a physical analogue material for unsaturated oil sands tailings
Download2023-10-02
Thin-lift deposition of treated oil sands tailings is currently investigated as a potential solution for creating a trafficable cap layer for future reclamation activities. To determine the optimal thickness of the cap layer, physical modeling experiments using the 50g-ton geotechnical beam...

Near-Wellbore Salinity Effect on Sand Control Plugging by Fines Migration in Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage Producer Wells
DownloadFall 2023
Sand control screens are necessary for steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) wells drilled into oil sands to prevent sand production. However, the accumulation of mobilized fine particles near the wellbore can result in screen plugging, adversely affecting the well's flow performance. This...

Boxed-in: Comparing Algorithms for Box-flight Mass-Balance Greenhouse Gas Flux Measurements from Mineable and In Situ Oil Sands Developments
DownloadSpring 2022
To combat global warming, Canada has committed to reducing greenhouse gases (GHGs) 40-45% below 2005 emission levels by 2025. Monitoring emissions and deriving accurate inventories are essential to reaching these goals. GHGs can be measured at a small scale, often using ground measurements which...

Cavity Availability, Characteristics and Use by Over-wintering Birds and Mammals in Southern Yukon
DownloadSpring 2020
Cavity using birds and mammals are significant components of boreal forest communities, and the availability of tree cavities suitable for roosting and resting may be critical for supporting these communities. Furthermore, cavity availability and habitat suitability may limit populations of...
