A Cenovus worker is dead after an incident involving a hauling truck Tuesday night at a northeastern Alberta oilsands site. The worker was killed at the Christina Lake site, about 150 kilometres southeast of Fort McMurray, Cenovus said in a statement on Wednesday. The worker was fatally injured around 10:30 p.m. while a drilling rig was being moved on site, Cenovus said. "We extend our deepest sympathies to the worker's family, friends and co-workers," reads a statement from Cenovus. Christina Lake, about 350 kilometres northeast of Edmonton, is a steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAG-D) operation which first began production in 2002.
