Business Overview
Suncor Energy Inc. is an integrated energy company strategically focused on developing one of the world's largest petroleum resource basins — Canada's Athabasca oil sands.
In 1967, Suncor made history: becoming the first company to commercially produce crude oil from the oil sands of northern Alberta. Since then, Suncor has grown to become Canada's largest integrated energy company with a balanced portfolio of high quality assets and significant growth prospects, focused on operational excellence, with the assets, people and financial strength to compete globally.
Suncor has a track record of delivering responsible growth and generating strong returns for shareholders. Since Suncor became publicly traded in 1992, daily oil sands production has increased by 600%.* Over the same period, Suncor's total return on investment has returned 5173%, versus the S&P 500 total shareholder return of 373%.* Our future growth opportunities are world-class, with a compounded annual growth rate potential of 10 to 12% in oil sands and 7 to 8% overall until 2020.
Suncor's common shares (symbol: SU) are listed on the Toronto and New York stock exchanges. Suncor is included in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index and the FTSE4Good.
