Research and Markets: Standard & Poors Industry Report Card: It's Not Just About Oil Sands Anymore For Canadian Oil And Gas Companies

DUBLIN--()--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/z8gndq/industry_report) has announced the addition of the "Industry Report Card: It's Not Just About Oil Sands Anymore For Canadian Oil And Gas Companies Oct 12" report to their offering.

Until recently, Asian national oil company (NOC) investment in Canada's oil and gas industry had largely focused on acquiring interests in the vast oil sands resources in the Athabasca region. Asian NOC investments in the Canadian oil and gas industry, which almost didn't exist in 2008, ramped up significantly since 2009, and represented about one-quarter of total international investments from Asian NOCs (see chart). For governments that were building their portfolios of foreign oil and gas resources as a hedge against future energy needs, Canada's oil sands resources, with their multidecade reserve life indexes (RLIs), appeared to be attractive acquisition targets.
