6. Segmented Information

The company’s operating segments are reported based on the nature of their products and services and management responsibility. The following summary describes the operations in each of the segments:

Oil Sands includes the company’s operations in Northern Alberta to explore, develop and produce bitumen, synthetic crude oil and related products, through the recovery and upgrading of bitumen from mining and in situ operations. This segment also includes the company’s joint interests in Syncrude and Fort Hills. In 2023, the company completed two separate acquisitions of additional working interests in the Fort Hills mining and extraction operation, increasing its ownership from 54.11% to 100% (see note 16). The individual operating segments related to mining operations, In Situ, Fort Hills and Syncrude have been aggregated into one reportable segment (Oil Sands) due to the similar nature of their business activities, including the production of bitumen, and the single geographic area and regulatory environment in which they operate.
Exploration and Production (E&P) includes offshore activity in East Coast Canada, with interests in the Terra Nova, White Rose, Hibernia and Hebron oilfields, as well as the marketing and risk management of crude oil and natural gas. International onshore assets include the company’s working interests in Libya and Syria. Suncor completed the divestments of its United Kingdom (U.K.) portfolio and Norway assets in 2023 and 2022, respectively (see note 16).
Refining and Marketing includes the refining of crude oil products, and the distribution, marketing, transportation and risk management of refined and petrochemical products, and other purchased products through the retail and wholesale networks located in Canada and the United States (U.S.). The segment also includes trading of crude oil, refined products, natural gas and power.

The company also reports activities not directly attributable to an operating segment under Corporate and Eliminations. This segment previously included renewable energy assets, which were sold in the first quarter of 2023 (see note 16). Corporate activities include Suncor’s debt and borrowing costs, expenses not allocated to the company’s businesses, and investments in certain clean technologies.
