Editor's Notes
- This report considers two potential scenarios:Low Growth: market diversification does not occur and industry growth is driven by North American demand for oil and natural gas from industrial uses, power generation and transportation. Expansion: market diversification occurs and Canadian oil and gas producers supply international markets. Ie. LNG export facilities and associated pipelines. Oil and Gas Services - Employment within the services sector (i.e., drilling and completions, geophysical, and petroleum services) is projected to increase in either scenario. Growing demands for production from oil sands, shale oil and gas and the development of the LNG export sector.Exploration and Production (E&P) - Great opportunities exist around LNG export development, oil sands developments and expanded offshore activities. Project are very expensive and require long lead times, lots of capital investment.Pipelines - Several thousand kilometers of new pipelines are required to reach new markets. Workforce for construction phase of the pipeline expansion might be significant, but not be as intensive as other sectors. Age-related attrition will be a key concern for the sector.
- A job for everyone!Key job family = A series of related jobs distinguished by levels of knowledge, skills, abilities and other factors. e.g., field workers, operators, trades, technologists and technicians.Employment over the next decade may increase between nine and 20 per cent respectively, with employment levels reaching 213,500 to as much as 233,900 by 2022.
- 80% office vs 20% on-site (plant, facility â can be remote, but not the same as service field work)These are the âownersâ â ie. Producing companies that put capital investment towards projects
- There are two different methods of producing oil from the oil sands: open-pit mining and in situ. Bitumen that is close to the surface is mined. Bitumen that occurs deep within the ground is produced in situ using specialized extraction techniques. Oil sands activity can be broken down into three operation types:Mining â activities to explore and recover oil sands reserves through mining from open pits â use heavy hauler trucks - Initially, bitumen was extracted using huge shovels and trucks and open-pit mining techniques. However, only 20 per cent of Canadaâs known oil sands resource is close enough to the surface to be mined.In situ â activities to explore and recover oil sands reserves in place, or âin situâ, by drilling wells â SAGD process - Other 80 per cent of Canadaâs oil sands resource is deeper or in situand requires different extraction technologies, such as steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD), to bring the bitumen to the surface. Steam is used in SAGD to soften the bitumen so it can be pumped to the surface. SAGD is similar to conventional oil production - uses horizontal drilling and wells.Upgrading â process manufacturing operation that converts bitumen into a product similar to light conventional oil. It also produces a number of other useful by-products, such as sulphur which is used in the manufacturing of fertilizers, pharmaceuticals and other products.
- 22,500 growth + attrition When you add in 3% turn-over: 9,350 + 22,500 = 31,850Power engineers â needed for the oil sands - operators who require power engineering certification or what is also known as a steam ticket. Responsible for the safe and efficient operation and maintenance of industrial equipment such as boilers, steam and gas turbines, generators, gas and diesel internal combustion engines, pumps, condensers, compressors, pressure vessels and related controls. In large industrial or building complexes, they also may be responsible for heating, air-conditioning, ventilation, refrigeration, fire systems and building control systems. (ALIS) Greatest need is for 3rd class power engineers.
- Employment Impacts of Oil and Gas Investment and Activities to 2022Between 2013 and 2022, the industry will sustain an average of 213,000 to 224,400 direct jobs each year in exploration and production, oil and gas services and pipeline operations. In addition, between 413,400 and 505,300 indirect jobs will be sustained each year in: ďˇ construction ďˇ manufacturing ďˇ transportation and warehousing ďˇ professional, scientific and technical services ďˇ waste management and remediation services ďˇ financial, insurance, real estate and rental and leasing Finally, an average of 267,700 to 306,400 jobs each year will also be supported or âinducedâ in the broader economy, largely through a general increase in consumer spending by direct and indirect workers.Simply put:for every direct job created within oil and gas industry operations, three jobs are created outside of the industry.
- Net hiring requirements to 2022 for Top 10 Alberta-based oil + gas operations.Net hiring requirements = hiring due to industry activity + age-related attrition (excludes non-retirement turnover)Albertaâs oil and gas industry directly employed close to 160,000 workers in 2012! In addition to the oil and gas field and operations employment across the province, Alberta is also home to the majority of the industryâs head office jobs. Investments and activities of the oil and gas industry, including LNG development on the west coast, offshore oil and gas development on the east coast, and oil sands development in Alberta will continue to benefit all Canadians.
- Long-Term Net Hiring Requirements (to 2022) for Top Ten Oil and Gas OccupationsNet hiring requirements = hiring due to industry activity + age-related attrition (excludes non-retirement turnover)For all sectors combined
- Occupations with ten-year average projected unemployment rates below the balanced rate (both scenarios):âlabour shortagesâ - lack of workers from an occupational perspective. Some occupations will have enough workers (quantitative balance), but there may be gaps in the skills and experience the oil and gas industry is looking for. This is typically referred to as âskill shortages.â The occupations listed have ten-year average projected unemployment rates that fall below the occupationâs balanced unemployment rate in both scenarios.
