Suncor, Petro-Canada Merger To Create Canada's Largest Energy Company

摘要

Suncor Energy Inc. and Petro-Canada plan to merge in an all-share transaction worth about C$19.6 billion (US$15.5 billion), which would create Canada's largest energy com-pany and North America's fifth largest. The deal increases an already strong stake in Canada's oilsands, but the combina-tion also creates a small powerhouse of natural gas prospects in Western Canada, British Columbia, the U.S. Rocky Moun-tains, the Mackenzie Delta and Alaska.
