Rising costs, transport woes threaten to slow oil boom- The Globe and Mail
Description

Due to high production and transportation costs, the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP) forecasted a decreasing oil production rate. The industry is beginning to depend more on the creation of pipelines in the region and companies like Enbridge Inc. are anticipating the federal government’s ruling on the creation of the Northern Gateway pipeline. While pipelines would significantly reduce the transportation costs for companies and increase their production capacity, they pose many risks to the native communities and the environment.
