Canadian integrated oil and gas company with oil-sands production, conventional assets, and refining through US and Canadian plants.
Canadian integrated oil and gas company with oil-sands production, conventional assets, and refining through US and Canadian plants.
Sells crude oil, bitumen and refined fuels at prices set in world markets, with refineries giving a partial offset when crude is cheap relative to products. Steam-driven wells in northern Alberta supply most of the oil. The 2021 merger with Husky Energy added most of its refining and its offshore oil.
In one line: Canada's Phillips 66-style integrated oil-sands producer.
Moat: narrow (scale, installed base). Large oil-sands reserve base integrated with downstream refining capacity.
Headquarters: Calgary, Alberta, Canada · Founded: 2009 · Employees: 7,211
