Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP)

The Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP) is a non-partisan, research-based industry association that advocates on behalf of our member companies, large and small, that explore for, develop, and produce oil and natural gas throughout Canada. CAPP’s members produce nearly three quarters of Canada’s annual oil and natural gas production, and our associate members provide a wide range of services that support the upstream industry.

Canada’s upstream oil and natural gas industry provides approximately 450,000 direct and indirect jobs in nearly all regions of Canada. Last year, the industry contributed over $85 billion to Canada’s GDP, delivered over 20 percent of the country’s value of exports, and between 2022 and 2024 generated $116 billion in taxes and royalties for governments nationwide.

CAPP is a solution-oriented partner and works with all levels of government to ensure a thriving Canadian oil and natural gas industry. We strive to meet the need for safe, reliable, affordable, and responsibly produced energy, for Canada and the world. We are proud to amplify industry efforts to reduce GHG emissions from oil and gas production and support Indigenous participation and prosperity.
