Notons également la présence d´une petite raffinerie à Bowden, en Alberta, propriété de Parkland Industries, qui est actuellement fermée. Il existe trois grands centres de raffinage au Canada (Edmonton, Sarnia et Montréal), mais la plupart des provinces comptent au moins une raffinerie.

There are currently 12 companies operating refineries in Canada. Only Imperial Oil, Shell and PetroCanada operate more than one refinery and market products nationally. Other refiners generally operate a single refinery and market product in a particular region. These regional refiners include North Atlantic Refining, Irving Oil and Ultramar in the east, Suncor in Ontario and Federated Co-op, Husky and Chevron in the west. Of the 19 refineries in Canada, there are 16 that manufacture the full range of petroleum products. Husky's facility in Lloydminster, Alberta, and the Moose Jaw Asphalt plant in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, are primarily asphalt plants with limited production of other products. The Nova Chemicals facility in Sarnia, Ontario, is a petrochemical plant that also produces some distillate products. There is also a small refinery in Bowden, Alberta, owned by Parkland Industries that is currently shutdown. There are three main refining centres in Canada (Edmonton, Sarnia and Montreal), but most provinces have at least one refinery. Manitoba and Prince Edward Island are the only provinces with no refining capacity and there are no refineries in the territories.
