Cenovus announced early Monday morning that it safely evacuated staff from its Foster Creek operations, and shut down production, due to a forest fire, that is currently ~25 km south of the facility, but nearer to the only access road to the facility. Prior to the shut-in, Foster Creek was producing ~67.5 mbbl/d net to CVE, representing ~31% of 1Q15 total oil & NGLs production of 218 mbbl/d.
