“Research is to oil sands development what exploration
is to conventional oil” says retired Imperial Oil VP Howard (Howie) Dingle. “We
know where the oil sands are. We don’t necessarily know how to get the oil out

The Shift to a New Global Currency Alters International Relations  |
| Last week I wrote about how Israel's newfound natural gas wealth is catalyzing a shift in Middle-Eastern relations. It was a topic that generated much discussion in our office – we knew that the Mediterranean Sea resource is highly significant for the Jewish state, which has long struggled with energy insecurity, but the deeper we delved into the issue the more we realized that Israel's new resource is already having wide global implications.Thursday, July 26, 2012 |

| One Man, Immeasurable Impact |

If he is remembered at all, Americans interested in business history think of J.Howard Pew as an industrialist who created what was once one of the world’s largest energy companies.For Canadians, though, he was the legendary force behind the harnessing of the oilsands.Though his efforts in the oilsands sector were a cash drain for his company – at the time, one of the 20 largest in the United States – for this country he created an industry.Wednesday, July 18, 2012 |

| Big Oil's Cost-Revenue Tightrope |
| I am pretty vocal with my opinion that high oil prices are here to stay. In the long term, the key forces that sway the oil supply-demand balance will all work to push prices upward: Demand will rise as the global population rises; supplies will become constrained as oil-producing nations retain greater portions of their production for domestic use; and production costs will climb and climb as we run out of easy oil and are forced to tap into more complex and costly reservoirs.Wednesday, May 23, 2012 |

| Overseas Companies Are Worth A Look |
|
With uncertainty in Europe spooking investors away from any asset perceived as risky, many Americans have become wary of overseas equities.While the fear is understandable, it may be keeping us away from some of the world's most promising economies.I believe economic fundamentals are still the ultimate driver of investment performance, but it's easy to come to the opposite conclusion given the extreme global asset correlation we are now seeing.Friday, May 18, 2012 |

Moving Parts  |
| It has often been observed that being a successful investor is not easy. And how could it be, given that much of what drives investment returns can be tracked to the economies that serve as the foundation for those investments. That, in turn, brings into play the study of economics, which is where things begin to get very wiggly.Monday, April 09, 2012 |

| Oilsands allies |
|
Momentum is building in Canada’s heavy oil and oilsands sector towards a new reality where project owners are able to work together to achieve successes they could have alone either as quickly or as completely.Make no mistake, competition in the sector is fierce, but not in all areas of development—companies are finding that in many cases it makes more sense to collaborate than to fight.Wednesday, April 04, 2012 |
