Canada's major oil producers aim for a final investment decision on the 6-million-tonne Pathways carbon capture and storage project by late 2027, pending regulatory approvals and fiscal agreements with Alberta and federal governments. The project is central to Canada's plan to increase oil production while managing emissions, with commitments to carbon pricing and financial support still being finalized.
