Suncor Energy Inc. operates as a leading integrated energy company with a robust focus on developing petroleum resource basins, particularly Canada's Athabasca oil sands.

The Refining and Marketing segment is responsible for refining crude oil and intermediate feedstock into various petroleum and petrochemical products, distributing these products to retail, commercial, and industrial customers, including through other retail sellers.
Additionally, Suncor Energy Inc. operates four wind farms in Ontario and Western Canada through its Corporate and Eliminations segment, further diversifying its energy portfolio. Beyond its core activities, the company is actively involved in marketing and trading crude oil, natural gas, byproducts, refined products, and power across global markets.
