OTTAWA: Authorities in Canada have announced the reopening of eight shuttered work camps south of the wildfire-ravaged oil town of Fort McMurray, paving the way for energy firms to restart production.
Municipal authorities on Sunday evening announced a “phased re-entry” for camps near Nexen’s Long Lake and ConocoPhillips Co’s Surmont facilities, both of which stopped production due to the fire. The municipality is also reopening camps near Enbridge Inc’s Cheecham terminal, which the company has said was returning to full service.
