Imperial Oil (NYSEAMERICAN: IMO) is a Canadian integrated energy company involved in the exploration, production, refining and marketing of petroleum and petrochemical products. Headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, Imperial has operated in Canada for well over a century and is one of the country’s long-standing energy firms. The company is majority-owned by Exxon Mobil Corporation, which provides strategic and technical links to global upstream and downstream capabilities.
Imperial’s operations span upstream activities—exploration and production of crude oil, natural gas and oil-sands resources—and downstream operations including refining, manufacturing of fuels and lubricants, petrochemical products, and retail distribution. In Canada the company markets fuels under well-known retail and lubricant brands and supplies commercial, industrial and consumer customers. Its product lineup typically includes gasoline and diesel, heating fuels, lubricants and specialty petroleum-derived products used in industrial and transportation applications.
Imperial’s business is principally focused on the Canadian market, with substantial activity in Western Canada and Alberta’s oil-sands region, while benefiting from its relationship with Exxon Mobil for access to international technology and markets. Historically established in the late 19th century, the company has evolved through upstream development, refining investments and downstream marketing to become a vertically integrated energy supplier. Imperial emphasizes operational reliability and technical development across its asset base while managing regulatory and environmental responsibilities associated with the oil and gas industry.
