Suncor Energy is a Canadian oil and gas company that mines oil sands in Alberta, Canada, and turns that raw material into fuels like gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel. It sells those fuels to everyday drivers, airlines, and industrial customers, mostly across Canada and the United States. Suncor also owns a large network of Petro-Canada gas stations, making it one of Canada's most recognizable energy brands.

Suncor makes money by extracting and upgrading oil sands into synthetic crude, refining it into finished fuels, and selling those fuels at both wholesale and retail levels. This integrated model — controlling the process from the ground to the gas pump — helps protect profits when oil prices shift. The company operates almost entirely in North America and generates tens of billions in annual revenue. The biggest risk it faces is the high cost of oil sands production, which makes earnings sensitive to drops in global crude oil prices.
