Tour of the Oil Sands @ Fort McMurray

On August 10th and 11th nine members of the U of C team and 2 facilitators, along with some team members and facilitators from U of L and U of A had the opportunity to go on a tour of the Oil Sands near Fort McMurray.

The trip included tours of both Suncor and ConocoPhilips sites as well as a trip to the Oil Sands Discovery Centre. The trip was interesting as it got us thinking about how synthetic biology could possibly have an impact on the sustainability of oils ands projects: offering solutions to some of the problems facing oil sands projects today.
