Water is used in oil sands extraction to help separate extra-heavy crude oil, also known as bitumen, from the sand, clay and water that make up the oil sands. Oil sands surface mining uses three to four barrels of new water to produce one barrel of bitumen, while in-situ processes use an average of 0.4 barrels of fresh waterFootnote1 for each barrel of production.
