Presentation by Clement W. Bowman June, Unlocking the Deeply-Buried Oil Sands 1974 – Establishment of the Alberta Oil Sands Technology and Research Authority (AOSTRA) The purpose: to get the private sector back working on the 90% of the oil sands too deeply buried to be mined A National Project launched by a $100 million seed fund, that grew to $1 billion (1970s dollars). Projects funded 50/50 by the private/public sector Cross-sectoral management board made investment decisions. New technology owned and licensed by the Alberta government
