Suncor Energy Inc. (SU - Free Report) suffered a massive setback recently as two workers of Clearstream Mining died at its Fort Hills oil sands mine.

Last month, Suncor Energy released its capital budget and production guidance for 2021 and expects its output to increase next year as it presumes commodity prices and demand to improve from the pandemic slumps.
