Accordingly, boe measures may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation.

("Suncor") (TSX:SU) (NYSE:SU) and Petro-Canada ("Petro-Canada") (TSX:PCA) (NYSE:PCZ) today announced that they have agreed to merge the two companies.

"This merger creates a made-in-Canada energy leader with the assets, cost structure and financial strength to compete globally," said Rick George, who is president and chief executive officer of Suncor and who will assume the same role with the merged entity. "The combined portfolio boasts the largest oil sands resource position, a strong Canadian downstream brand, solid conventional exploration and production assets, and low-cost production from Canada's east coast and internationally."
