Projects and Sites

One of North America’s most efficient, modern and integrated hydrocarbon processing sites, converting oil sands bitumen into finished, marketable products.

Located at the Scotford upgrader near Edmonton, Alberta, the world-class Quest Carbon Capture and Storage facility is proving that large-scale CO₂ capture is a safe and effective measure to reduce CO₂ emissions from industrial sources.

Polaris will provide new carbon capture capacity for the Shell-owned assets at Scotford. Once built, Polaris will reduce scope 1 emissions at the Scotford refinery by up to 40% as well as a 22% reduction at the Scotford chemicals facility. It would capture approximately 650,000 tonnes per year of CO₂.

The first phase of Atlas, located near Scotford, will provide permanent underground storage for CO₂ captured by the Polaris project.

Groundbirch produces methane, natural gas liquids and condensate. The natural gas produced from the Montney formation is situated 2,500 metres below ground, trapped within a mixture of siltstone and shale.

An exploration opportunity in the Montney formation, Gold Creek is one of the most active resource formations being developed in Canada.

Crude oil refined at the Centre helps meet southern Ontario’s transportation fuel needs, such as gasoline, diesel and jet fuel.

Shell has a 40% interest in LNG Canada. The project will put Canada on the global map of LNG exporting countries.

Shell Canada’s Brockville Lubricants Plant is the largest blender and packager of retail passenger car motor oils in Canada.

Shell Canada completed the sale of the Foothills assets – Waterton, Jumping Pound and Caroline gas plants, associated wells and pipelines and the gas fields which feed them – to a subsidiary of Pieridae Energy Limited in October 2019.
