What code 211110 includes

This Canadian industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in the exploration for, and/or production of, petroleum or natural gas from wells in which the hydrocarbons will initially flow or can be produced using normal pumping techniques.

Activities & Examples

  • coal gasification and pyrolysis at the mine site
  • crude oil, conventional extraction
  • fractionating natural gas liquids
  • liquefied petroleum gases (LPG) from natural gas, production, mining
  • natural butane, ethane, isobutane and propane production
  • natural gas cleaning and preparation plants
  • natural gas liquids recovering and mining
  • oil and gas exploration (except on a contract or fee basis)
  • shale oil mining
  • battery operators (petroleum industry)
  • coal gasification and pyrolysis at the mine site
  • combustion chamber natural gas processing plant
  • condensate, cycle, natural gas production
  • crude oil, conventional extraction
  • crude oil, conventional, secondary and waterflood recovering
  • crude oil, upgrading (heavy crude to crude)
  • drilling, well, petroleum, oil company (except contract)
  • exploration for crude petroleum and natural gas; drilling, completing and equipping wells; operating separators, emulsion breakers, desilting equipment and field gathering lines for crude petroleum; and all other activities in the preparation of oil and natural gas up to the point of shipment from the producing property

Exclusions & Cross-References

  • contract drilling for oil and gas (See 213111 Oil and gas contract drilling)
