In the case of blended bitumen, marketability appears to be somewhat less certain than that for synthetic crude oil, and it is conceivable that temporary supply imbalances could occur. The Board believes, however, that in these situations there would be a widening of the light/heavy crude oil price differential, which would provide the incentive to install upgrading facilities and, in turn, eliminate the supply imbalances. 1, record 12, English, - supply%20imbalance

Dans le cas du bitume fluidifié, la commercialisation semble moins certaine que pour le brut synthétique, et des déséquilibres temporaires de l'offre sont tout à fait concevables. L'Office estime toutefois que dans de telles circonstances, le différentiel de prix entre le brut léger et le brut lourd s’accroîtrait, ce qui constituerait un incitatif à l'installation d’unités de traitement, ce qui, en retour, éliminerait les déséquilibres de l'offre. 1, record 12, French, - d%C3%A9s%C3%A9quilibre%20de%20l%26rsquo%3Boffre

"Net available supply" refers to the volumes of crude oil available to the market after taking upgrading and blending into account. Thus, the net available Canadian crude oil supply represents the total of WCSB [Western Canada Sedimentary Basin] conventional light crude, East Coast crude, synthetic crude oil, pentanes plus, blended heavy crude and blended bitumen, after local feedstocks and diluent requirements have been met. 1, record 13, English, - net%20available%20supply
