History

Canadian Natural Resources Limited (CNRL) is an oil and gas exploration and production company headquartered in Calgary, Alberta. It was founded in 1973 as Canadian Javelin Ltd., and changed its name to Canadian Natural Resources in 1981. It has since grown to become one of the largest oil and gas producers in Canada, with operations in the United States, Europe, Africa, and the North Sea. In the 1980s, CNRL developed the biggest oil sand deposits in Alberta, and by 1989, it was the first company to successfully construct a SAG-D (Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage) project. Throughout the 1990s, CNRL acquired multiple oil and gas exploration and production companies, including Northstar Energy and Spectrum Resources, which helped expand its portfolio significantly. CNRL began drilling offshore oil and gas wells in the North Sea in 2000, and by 2004, it was producing approximately 41,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day. The company continues to develop and acquire oil and gas assets around the world, most recently acquiring Shell and Marathon Oil’s assets in Canada’s oilsands. In 2019, CNRL was the third-largest gas producer in Canada and the fifth-largest oil producer in the United States.
