PETROLEUM TECHNOLOGY, ECONOMICS, AND POLITICS
reductions in the nitrogen, sulfur, and oxygen contents. This latter occurrence also improves catalyst life and activity as well as
reduces the metals content.
In short, in situ recovery processes, although less efficient in
terms of bitumen recovery relative to mining operations, may have
the added benefit of leaving some of the more obnoxious constituents from the processing objective in the ground.
