The calendar provides a quick reference to oil sands filing deadline information. Inadvertent omissions of reporting deadlines (from the calendar) do not constitute acceptable reasons for non-compliance with filing deadlines.

Lessees who have, or are pursuing, an oil sands project may apply for royalty treatment under the provisions of the Oil Sands Royalty Regulation, 2009.
Projects that do not make an application under the regulation and are not covered by an existing individual agreement or the Experimental Oil Sands Royalty Regulation will be subject to Non-Project royalty under Part 4 Division 1 of the Oil Sands Royalty Regulation, 2009.
Prior to February 1, 2013, Non-Project well royalty was reported in the conventional oil sands royalty reporting forms.
Effective February 1, 2013, the form changed to the Non-Project Well Royalty Submission (NPR).
Refer to IB 2012-13 for the new royalty reporting process for Non-Project wells.
Starting February 1, 2013, all NPR submissions must be reported either in the XML file format (XML, 3 KB) or in the Excel alternative (XLSX, 771 KB).
