CARLSBAD, CA, October 21, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- In a report in Energy Digital, David Dyck explains why Ivanhoe Energy's HTL heavy oil upgrading process is unique.

Ivanhoe Energy, an independent heavy oil exploration and development company, got its start in February 1995. The company's competitive advantage in the heavy oil industry is directly related to its unique HTL partial upgrading process, which uses innovative methods to significantly improve the development of heavy oil assets. The process results in a low-cost solution for heavy oil producers to upgrade heavy crude oils.

With core operations in Canada, the United States, Ecuador, China, and Mongolia, Ivanhoe Energy has business development opportunities wordwide.

There are vast, untapped quantities of heavy oil throughout the world, most of which have not been developed due to the logistical challenges and the cost of production using conventional technologies.

With a vision to improve the world's ability to extract and upgrade heavy oil, Ivanhoe Energy has created a proprietary technology called "HTL," or "Heavy-to-Light."

"HTL is an exciting, game changing process in the heavy oil industry, because it upgrades heavy crude right in the field to pipeline spec and does so on substantially lower capital intensity than traditional methods. It has a smaller physical footprint, resulting in a largely environmentally-friendly process" says Dyck.
