	Alexander's Gas & Oil Connections - Huge oil production ship on its way to Terra Nova oil field
		The Terra Nova oil field, which is about 350 km southeast of Newfoundland, is thought to contain about 370 mm barrels of recoverable light crude oil.
		On top of its double-walled hull, which can hold 1 mm barrels of oil, is a complex network of pipes and valves that will be used to pump and process oil and gas taken from beneath the ocean floor.
		Oil Field: Discovered in 1984, it is thought to contain 370 mm barrels of oil.

		The oil was ejected from the rig during the normal practice of flow testing a well.
		With regards to the initial slick from the Terra Nova FPSO on Sunday, aerial surveillance indicates it is continuing to decrease and the dispersed oil is dissipating into the environment naturally.
		The spill was caused by a malfunction in equipment that separates water from the oil at the field.

	Terra Nova
		The field is located approximately 350 kilometres east southeast of St. John's, Newfoundland, 35 kilometres southeast of the Hibernia oil field, in 19 to 100 metres of water.
		The Terra Nova reservoir is a sequence of medium to coarse-grained sandstones that were deposited about 140 million years ago in the late Jurassic.
		The Terra Nova field is located in an area which is exposed to the seasonal presence of icebergs.

		At the 370-million-barrel Terra Nova oil field, situated 35 kilometers east of Hibernia, a consortium led by Petro-Canada has designed the first-of-its-kind, double-hulled FPSO vessel that is capable, in short notice, of disengaging its nine anchors and moving out of the path of an oncoming iceberg.
		Such are the challenges of producing oil and gas in the harsh and unforgiving conditions of the North Atlantic, otherwise known as "iceberg alley." Temperatures average five degrees Celsius; winds howl at 35 kilometers per hour; fog banks frequently prevent helicopters from landing on offshore facilities.
		Nova Scotia's deep plays, Brown said, have the three major components seen elsewhere in the world: a trailing continental margin, a large delta complex, and a mobile substrate comprised of salt.

	TERRA NOVA DEVELOPMENT: AN OFFSHORE PETROLEUM PROJECT 1.0 Introduction
		The Terra Nova Development (the Project) is a proposal to develop the petroleum resources of the Terra Nova oil field on the northeast Grand Banks of Newfoundland, and is likely to be the second oil production project on the Grand Banks.
		The Terra Nova oil field lies 350 km east-southeast of St. John's on the continental shelf in the northeast section of the Grand Banks on the southeastern margin of the Jeanne D'Arc Basin (Figure 1).
		The Terra Nova oil field is estimated to contain over one billion barrels of oil in place, and is composed of three major geological structural fault blocks: the Graben, the East Flank and the Far East (Figure 2).

	Business Wire: Murphy Oil Corporation makes announcement
		Terra Nova is located in about 300 feet of water in the Jeanne D'Arc Basin off the eastern coast of Canada and is approximately 20 miles southeast of the Hibernia oil field, where Murphy has a 6.5-percent working interest.
		Oil was discovered in the Jurassic Jeanne D'Arc formation at Terra Nova in 1984 with the drilling of the well PETRO-CANADA ET AL TERRA NOVA K-08.
		Oil quality is sweet, low-sulfur, 35 degrees API gravity (American Petroleum Institute standard measurement), paraffinic oil, very similar to the quality of oil that will be produced from Hibernia.

	Oil & Gas
		The terminal currently has storage capacity for 1.5 million barrels of oil, however, it was designed to be a regional storage facility and this capacity can be expanded to accept crude from the Terra Nova oil field and other projects as well.
		Construction employment related to Terra Nova is expected to range between 900 to 1,100 persons in the Province during the summer of 1999, the peak pre-production phase.
		Terra Nova has already generated significant employment opportunities in the Province, with over 250 people working on the project in September, up from about 90 in January.

	Offshore Technology - Petro-Canada oil field project - Terra Nova - Grand Banks
		The Terra Nova field, located 350km ESE of St John's Newfoundland and 35km SE of Hibernia, was discovered in 1984 by Petro-Canada.
		The area is characterised by the seasonal presence of floating sea ice, ranging in thickness from 0.5m to 1.5m, produced by the freezing of the ocean's surface layer and icebergs.
		Terra Nova is subdivided into three major structural blocks: the Graben, the East Flank and the Far East.

		Oil companies long suspected that commercial quantities of oil were trapped beneath Newfoundland and Labrador's onshore and offshore areas.
		First oil is expected to flow from the Hibernia oil field late in 1997 marking the beginning of a new era for the Province's oil and gas industry.
		Roughly 30 percent of the field's two billion barrels of oil are recoverable with today's drilling technology, however, it is expected that more will be tapped as horizontal drilling techniques improve.

	Husky Energy Inc. Reports Solid Financial Results; Major Projects Commence Contribution to Production
		Light/medium crude oil production from operations in Western Canada decreased during the second quarter of 2002 compared with the second quarter of 2001 as a result of natural declines, higher turnaround and maintenance activity and reduced drilling and workovers as a result of an extended spring breakup.
		The calculation of barrels of oil equivalent ("boe") and thousands of cubic feet equivalent ("mcfe") are based on a conversion rate of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas for one barrel of crude oil.
		The decrease in the light/medium crude oil & NGL royalty rate in 2002 was mainly due to Terra Nova royalties, which are currently low until recovery of capital expenditures.

		The Terra Nova development is on the Canadian Grand Banks 220 miles from St. John's, Newfoundland.
		The primary objectives of the Terra Nova gas lift design were to determine gas lift injection rates, valve setting depths, and orifice sizes to ensure maximum well productivity.
		On the basis of conversations with gas lift equipment suppliers and Terra Nova completion and production personnel, it was agreed that gas lift mandrels would be located at inclination less than 45° from vertical to facilitate slickline operations.

	Oil Production - Economic Commentary - Newfoundland & Labrador (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Oil production totalled 56.5 million barrels in the first six months of 2005, down 8.2% compared to the first six months of 2004.
		Terra Nova produced 19.9 million barrels of oil in the first six months of 2005, down 18.1% from 24.3 million barrels produced in the comparable period of 2004.
		Given the weakness in oil production in the first six months of 2005 and the fact that Terra Nova is scheduled for a 40-day maintenance shutdown beginning in early September, it is probable that overall production will fall short of our Budget forecast.

		Terra Nova's proposal involves a floating station which will be mobile in the case of dangerous icebergs which are common in the area.
		Also, it is logical to assume that because the Terra Nova operation will not be anchored to the sea floor as Hibernia is, that the local marine environment will not be as seriously affected.
		The information provided by the Terra Nova website states that full participation of all relevant environmental agencies has been a building block of the product, and that the preservation of the environmental is one of the founding tenets of the project.
