Energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in upgrading and refining of Canada's oil sands products
Nimana, Balwinder; Canter, Christina; Kumar, Amit - In: Energy 83 (2015) C, pp. 65-79
A model-FUNNEL-GHG-OS (FUNdamental ENgineering PrinciplEs- based ModeL for Estimation of GreenHouse Gases in the Oil Sands) based on fundamental engineering principles was developed to estimate the specific energy consumption and GHGs (greenhouse gas emissions) for upgrading bitumen to produce...

Greenhouse gas emissions from recovery of various North American conventional crudes
Rahman, Md Mustafizur; Canter, Christina; Kumar, Amit - In: Energy 74 (2014) C, pp. 607-617
Emissions from crude recovery contribute significantly to the life cycle GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions of transportation fuels. Recovery emissions come from drilling and land use change, crude extraction, crude oil processing, venting, flaring, and fugitives. In this study an attempt has been...

Energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in the recovery and extraction of crude bitumen from Canada’s oil sands
Nimana, Balwinder; Canter, Christina; Kumar, Amit - In: Applied Energy 143 (2015) C, pp. 189-199
A model – FUNNEL-GHG-OS (FUNdamental ENgineering PrinciplEs-based ModeL for Estimation of GreenHouse Gases in the Oil Sands) was developed to estimate project-specific energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) in major recovery and extraction processes in the oil sands, namely...
