Unconventional Energy Resources: 2013 Review thickness, hosted primarily within the Leduc Forma- tion carbonates (ERCB 2012). A number of factors (including economic, environmental, and technological criteria) are ap- plied to the initial in-place volumes of crude bitu- men to attain the established reserves. In Alberta there are two types of reserves for crude bitu- men—those that are anticipated to be recovered by surface mining techniques (generally in areas with <65 m (<213 ft) of overburden in the Athabasca area), and those to be recovered by underground in situ technologies (in areas with >65 m or >213 ft overburden) (largely thermal, for Athabasca, mainly steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD); for Cold Lake, cyclic steam stimulation (CSS); and for Peace River, thermal and primary recovery) (Tables 6, 7). Alberta is CanadaÕs largest producer of mar- ketable gas (71% in 2011) and of crude oil and Table 6.
