Crude oil and equivalent hydrocarbons production increased 13.2% in June compared with June 2006. This was led by a strong Newfoundland and Labrador offshore production and by Alberta bitumen output.
Exports of crude oil and equivalent hydrocarbons rose 4.0% from June 2006. During this period, 64.6% of Canada's total production went to the export market.
Natural gas domestic sales dipped to 3.8 billion cubic metres in June, a 0.8% decrease from June 2006. Residential gas sales rose 3.9% but were offset by a 3.8% drop in commercial gas sales.
Marketable natural gas climbed 1.9% from June 2006. Natural gas exports, which made up 61.6% of marketable natural gas, increased 2.0%.
