Wildfire burns out of control near Suncor's Firebag oilsands site

The company, Canada's second-largest oilsands producer by volume, confirmed Thursday that it was"moving to essential personnel only at site."

The Alberta government said the fire was approximately eight kilometres northeast of Suncor's Firebag main plant, 14 kilometres northeast of Suncor's Firebag Aerodrome and 16 kilometres east of Imperial Oil's Kearl oilsands facility. Suncor's Firebag oilsands site is the company's largest in situ operation. In oilsands terminology, in situ means using steam to heat up and loosen underground bitumen that is too deep underground to be accessed through surface mining.
