Read this report from a Norwegian news site of legal woes for the Norwegian oil giant in the Alberta Tar Sands.
“Statoil has been charged with several violations of water usage at the
site south of Fort McMurray in Alberta, and was called back into court
this week for another hearing. News bureau NTB reported that it remained
unclear whether the case would go to trial or whether Statoil, which
faces millions of Canadian dollars in fines, would agree to pay a
settlement.” (August 17, 2011)
