Following the oil price fall in 2014, the project partners decided to put further development on hold; activities have since been limited to fulfilling regulatory requirements and ensuring the site’s safety.
Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and CEO of Total, said: “Reducing our exposure to Canada’s oilsands by selling this asset is in line with our global strategy to focus our oil investments on low breakeven resources and develop a resilient portfolio in the mid and long term.

The closing of the transaction is subject to authorisation by the Canadian Competition Bureau.
