Oil is a powerful and versatile source of Canadian energy that will be a part of the global energy mix for decades to come. Canada has about six billion barrels of remaining oil reserves located outside the oil sands, found primarily in Alberta, Saskatchewan and offshore Newfoundland and Labrador. These oil fields are or were economically important to the Canadian economy: Oil Springs, Ontario. Turner Valley oil field, Alberta. Leduc oil field, Alberta. Pembina oil field, Alberta. Athabasca oil sands, Alberta. Peace River oil sands, Alberta. Cold Lake oil sands, Alberta. Duvernay Most of the Canadian oil sands are in three major deposits in northern Alberta. They are the Athabasca-Wabiskaw oil sands of north northeastern Alberta, the Cold Lake deposits of east northeastern Alberta, and the Peace River deposits of northwestern Alberta.
