I thought I explained my post ,it was made to perhaps encourage due dillegence,here's another,for me I superimpose costs of Connacher,try and not concentrate on the details and more on "generalitys,"has Connacher spent $1.5 billion"????

Expansions of current EnCana oil sands projects have cost under $20,000 (U.S.) per producing barrel of crude. But a stand-alone development such as Narrows Lake – which requires all new pipelines, processing equipment and roads – is expected to be pricier, Mr. Brannan said.

For example, at $30,000 per barrel, the total cost of a 100,000-barrel-a-day project would be $3-billion.nother
