Petroleum Technology Research Centre (PTRC)

The Petroleum Technology Research Centre (PTRC) is a not-for-profit corporation founded in 1998 to facilitate research and development and demonstration projects into enhanced oil recovery and carbon storage, with the goals of improving recovery rates while reducing the environmental footprint of the oil and gas industry. It is the PTRC’s mission to realize 5 billion additional barrels of oil reserves from Saskatchewan’s existing oil-in-place over five years of R&D and field trials of new and improved technologies.
