Ottawa Ontario, Ottawa region, Canada Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers Full time

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. Our associate members provide a wide range of services that support the upstream industry.


CAPP’s members produce nearly three quarters of Canada’s annual oil and natural gas production and provide approximately 450,000 direct and indirect jobs in nearly all regions of Canada. According to the most recently published data, the industry contributes over $70 billion to Canada’s GDP, as well as $45 billion in taxes and royalties to governments across the country. 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.

  • Attend industry conferences, seminars, and other events to network, gather intelligence, and represent CAPP.
  • Collaborate with subject matter experts at CAPP to identify areas of policy and regulatory priorities that require real time monitoring and summation.

  • Be a champion for Canada’s oil and natural gas industry.
  • Other duties as required.
