Sharing his views on this remarkable achievement, Tim McKay, President of Canadian Natural Resources, said:

"This is a significant milestone and demonstrates the size and scale of Canada's oil sands mining operations. The oil sands, through responsible development, provide sustainable, long-life, low decline production and significant value for stakeholders. This milestone could not have been achieved without the dedication of the employees and contractors who focus on safe, reliable operations, while minimizing our environmental footprint to ensure long-term sustainable development."
