Someone must have figured out the difference between thousands of barrels per day and millions of barrels per day as the article now reflects the former rather than the latter.

Thanks Starship. Perhaps someone saw my post and said "Uh-Oh" then corrected the problem.

So they produce less than one third of one million barrels per day. That ain't much in the grand scheme of things. There must be more oil producers there other than Syncrude as I think the oil sands produce about a million barrels per day.

At their current rate of increase in consumption (which in some cases appears to be accelerating), just the top five net oil exporters will consume an additional 5 mbpd in Total Liquids in 10 years.
