Imperial Oil is a Canadian energy company that finds, produces, refines, and sells oil and natural gas. It also turns crude oil into fuels such as gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel, and sells lubricants and other petroleum products under brands like Esso. Its business sits across the energy chain, from producing raw hydrocarbons to delivering finished fuels to drivers, fleets, airlines, and industrial customers.

The company makes money in two main ways: by selling oil and gas it produces, and by processing crude oil into higher-value products at its refineries. It also earns revenue from branded fuel sales, lubricant sales, and other downstream products used by consumers and businesses. Because it controls both production and refining, it can benefit from different parts of the energy market rather than relying on just one.

Imperial Oil is different from a pure producer because it has a large downstream business that helps move its own crude into end products people actually use every day. That makes it part oil company, part fuel marketer, and part industrial processor. For beginner investors, the key idea is that Imperial makes and sells the energy products that power transportation and many kinds of business activity across Canada.
