Natural Resources

We believe that responsible resource development and conservation can co-exist. We adhere to high environmental standards at our operations that allow us to produce the energy needed to drive economic growth and social well-being while also protecting the environment. We are proud to support environmental stewardship programs in the communities near our operations.

Adhering to the highest environmental standards.

City of Calgary

ConocoPhillips Canada has been a proud sponsor of the Mud Between My Toes (MUD) program through the City of Calgary’s Wetland Wonders program since 2006. Hosted at Ralph Klein Park, MUD is designed for children ages 5-12 to learn about the importance of urban wetlands and how urban and natural environments are connected.  Since our sponsorship, the program has welcomed over 15,000 students to the program and continues to grow in demand.
 
As an organization committed to environmental stewardship, we were proud to be the presenting sponsor once again in 2022 of the City of Calgary’s Parks and River Pathway Clean-up. This event is one of many volunteer initiatives enjoyed by our staff and their families. 

Wilder Institute / Calgary Zoo

ConocoPhillips Canada is proud to sponsor the Wilder Institute’s Whooping Crane Recovery Program.

In the 1940s, only 21 whooping cranes remained in the wild due to overhunting and habitat loss. Since then, dedicated conservation breeding and reintroduction programs have helped to increase this number to approximately 660 wild birds in 2021.

With support from partners, like ConocoPhillips Canada, the Wilder Institute is continuing its work to establish self-sustaining populations of whooping cranes in the wild. We’re proud to lend our ongoing support to help conserve this iconic North American bird.

NAIT Surmont Boreal Reclamation Project

We partner with NAIT on this high-impact applied research initiative to develop cost-effective reclamation methods that will help ConocoPhillips and other companies operating in Canada’s oil sands exceed Alberta's reclamation standards.

Youth Central

Youth Central is a non-profit organization established in Calgary in 1992 that offers programs to provide meaningful volunteer experiences for the city's youth. Each year, Youth Central organizes the Youth of Distinction Awards that recognize youth for the difference they make to our community. The awards are focused on daily choices youth make and the impact their choices have on those around them. As a company committed to environmental stewardship, we are pleased to support the Youth of Distinction Environmental Award.
