They’re defying industry stereotypes by focusing on sustainability and community responsibility in everything they do. Not because they have to but because it’s the right thing to do and it’s the smart thing to do. They’re the oil company of the 21st century. They believe the energy industry can be a force for good. And they’re going to get there through collaboration, ingenuity and innovation. — Sky Fire Energy
