One of the first benefits of utilizing OM, a core product within DynAMo®, was the realization and understanding of where Syncrude were not achieving critical targets. With OM, Syncrude has a consistent application of processing targets across the site and is now able to focus on moving forward with more of the energy optimization targets and building a standardized stewardship process around them. Background Challenge Syncrude is one of the largest producers of crude oil Prior to the introduction of Operations Management, Syncrude was attempting from Canada's oil sands. The company operates a large to manage the situation using Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, with varying oil sand mine, utilities plant, bitumen extraction plant inconsistent application of the information between the extraction organization and upgrading facility that processes bitumen and and the conversion/hydro-processing organization.

Production volumes are presented on a working-interest basis, before royalties, except for production values from the company's Libya operations, which are presented on an economic basis.

Cash flow provided by operating activities, which includes changes in non-cash working capital, was $2.086 billion ($1.39 per common share) in the second quarter of 2021, compared to cash flow used in operating activities of $768 million ($0.50 per common share) in the prior year quarter.
