These projects will add about 300,000 barrels per oil equivalent per day to Exxon�� production.

But as highlighted earlier Whitecap's Canadian light sweet crude is not as heavily discounted as Canadian heavy oil or bitumen. This does not leave it exposed to the same price risks and volatility as those companies that have a significant portion of their production made up by Canadian heavy oil and Bitumen, such as Husky Energy (HUSKF.PK), Suncor (SU), Imperial Oil (IMO) and Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ).

The rebound may have already happened. In fact, Pengrowth's shares are up 23% since my fellow Fool singled out the company as a potential low-priced value play back in January. Sean liked Pengrowth's laser focus on the Lindbergh bitumen project, and its efforts to divest non-core assets, which could turn around flagging metrics and make Pengrowth a smaller, but more profitable, Canadian oil play. Pengrowth made earlier efforts to play with oil's big boys in the Alberta shale -- Devon Energy (NYSE: DVN ) and ExxonMobil (NYSE: XOM ) already have major holdings in the region, and Pengrowth picked up a smaller driller a year ago to compete.
