On a monthly basis, Suncor Energy reports production numbers from its oil sands operation in order to provide stakeholders with a more timely review of operational performance. These numbers include upgraded sweet and sour synthetic crude oil and diesel, as well as non-upgraded bitumen sold directly to the market, from all Suncor-operated facilities. They do not include Suncor’s proportionate production share from the Syncrude joint venture.
These numbers are preliminary and subject to adjustment. Monthly totals may differ from the year-to-date total due to rounding, the impact of sales and changes in inventory. Quarterly Production volumes will be confirmed in Suncor’s quarterly reports to shareholders.
