Canadian oil industry's new hope is the Trans Mountain conduit which is set to begin operating next year.
The pipeline expansion will help Canada increase its pipeline capacity, overcome constraints and open new markets in Asia, improving price for crude.
The pipeline will transport around two times as much oil as previously, with capacity at 890,000 bpd, and it is expected to reinvigorate the industry and boost oil prospects.

On June 17, at the Wen 72-129 well site of Wenliu Oil Production Plant in Zhongyuan Oilfield, production workers were debugging the parameters of the wellhead multi-parameter sensing device. This device is the latest monitoring device after upgrading. Compared with traditional digital pressure gauges and thermostats, this device overcomes the problems of poor performance, complex structure, and easy damage, and greatly improves work efficiency. At the same time, the “smart brain” of oil wells has been upgraded again. At present, the device has been widely promoted in oil fields. Since the application of this device, Wenliu Oil Production Plant alone has saved more than 1 million yuan in maintenance costs for digital pressure gauges and thermostats.
