A Review of Oil Sands

Abstract

Abstract: The global energy shortage today makes the unconventional energy resources development be more and more focused, the oil sands development is one of them. In this paper, the oil sands researches in the world are reviewed in terms of the definition, origin, distribution, development history, mining technology, extraction and separation technologies of oil sands, oil sands mining and related environment problem, as well as oil sands prospects, etc, dominated by introduction of the distribution and mining technologies of oil sands. It is advocated that the development of oil sands should follow the ideas of“green”and“low carbon”so as to provide useful and valuable experiences for near?future oil?sand development in China
