The PTAC Knowledge Centre provides access to information on technologies applicable to the hydrocarbon energy industry, provides technical literature searches on subject specific databases and contact information for subject experts. With funding from Western Economic Diversification, the Knowledge Centre is expanding to include materials to support the Technology for Emission Reduction and Eco-efficiency (TEREE) project that facilitates eco-efficient and GHG reducing technologies.

The growing collection, in electronic or hard copy, consists of research program reports, books, journals, conference proceedings, links and resources.

PTAC members have access to:

  • non-proprietary literature on hydrocarbon energy technologies
  • complimentary technical literature searches
  • contact information for industry, government and academia
  • assistance to identify, locate and acquire documents
  • web site resources and links

We invite PTAC members to provide non-proprietary technical brochures, reports or other literature from your company, in hard copy or electronic format, to be displayed in the Knowledge Centre. We encourage you to submit relevant materials for consideration on an on-going basis.
