The world uses roughly 100 million barrels of oil per day and produces roughly 75 million barrels of oil per day.

Alberta oil sands produces roughly 2 million barrels of oil per day. This fire has cut production of roughly 1 million barrels per day.

Nothing, look around it. What will allow the fire to catch up to it?

The bitumen in the group can't actually set on fire or fuel the fire. Abasand was once an old open pit mine for tarsand as well, the place burned really badly, did the oil fuel the fire? NOPE. The only worry about the fire reaching the sites themselves is the release of heavy chemicals into the air from processing plants.

Just to point out, the oilsands itself is a heavy oil when extracted that is used in machine oil or diesel. The small percentage of the oil extracted can be used for petrol or kerosene.

There is a lot more to worry about than sulfur or oil catching on fire.
>>
>>73368135
AND THE APOCALYPSE.. BEGINS!
>>
>>73371048
Sulfur is flamable, also produces poison gas when it burns.

>>73371190
Oil sands produces sulfur when processed, there's no regulation requiring the safe disposal of the waste so they made multiple giant piles of poisonous flammable material in the middle of a wildfire zone.
>>
>>73371048
Smell like rotten eggs
>>
>>73371024
Wow thats a lot of sulfur
>>
>>73371302
This would be acceptable but >>73371319
Would be too much of an eco disaster from all the chemicals used to extract the oil from the sand.

They use to put the oilsands in big jars with water and heat them in ovens to separate the oil quicker, from what I learned in school at least. Technology has come a long way since the first efforts to extract the oil from the sands.
>>
>>73371407
>wildfire zone
>open pit mine

I don't think so, the explosive reactions from all the chemicals used in the plants to extract the oil is more of a hazard to the sulfur than WILD FIRES
>>
>>73368135
Good thing the oil is dozens of meters below the surface. Wildfires can interfere with production, but they can't literally burn the oil sands.
>>73369613
Considering it is 150-200 feet beneath the surface of the Earth and not part of an open network of caverns, no. The Pennsylvania example is a coal fire, which is completely different.
>>73369725
Nice bait.

its okay they can grow weed in the oil sands place.

Just another quick history lessons. Oil from the tarsands has been leaking into the Athabasca river for, well since ever. The natives use to collect the oil from the rivers and use it to coat their canoes with it as a way to water proof the wooden hulls.

I'm one of the evacuees from the oilsands plants.

They won't be catching fire. There is virtually no vegetation anywhere near them.

The media has made this fire seem like a bigger deal than it really is.

1800 (?) houses burn in Fort Mac out of maybe 30,000. People who haven't thought about this critically think the whole city is gone.

The media plays the same dramatic footage over and over again...

I drove out of there yesterday at 3pm.

When I was at one of the work camps, we were unaffected. As a friend eloquently put it "It's an emergency, I've run out of beer!"
