211113 - Conventional oil and gas extraction^CAN

This Canadian industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in the exploration for, and/or production of, petroleum or natural gas from wells in which the hydrocarbons will initially flow or can be produced using normal pumping techniques.

• Illustrative example(s)

  • coal gasification and pyrolysis at the mine site
  • crude oil, conventional extraction
  • fractionating natural gas liquids
  • liquefied petroleum gases (LPG) from natural gas, production, mining
  • natural butane, ethane, isobutane and propane production
  • natural gas cleaning and preparation plants
  • natural gas liquids recovering and mining
  • oil and gas exploration

  All examples

• Exclusion(s)

  • producing crude oil from surface shales or tar sands or from reservoirs in which the hydrocarbons are semisolids and conventional production methods are not possible (See 211114 Non-conventional oil extraction)
  • performing oil field services for operators, on a contract or fee basis (See 213118 Services to oil and gas extraction)
  • recovering liquefied petroleum gases incidental to petroleum refining (See 324110 Petroleum refineries)
