SUNCOR Energy Inc, Canada's largest oil company, says it will cut 1,000 jobs, lower its 2015 capital budget by about 13 per cent and delay projects to weather collapsing prices.

The company will spend C$1 billion (S$1.12 billion) less this year than originally forecast lasts November, following Canadian Natural Resources Ltd in revising its budget lower this week. Suncor also plans to reduce operating expenses by C$600-800 million in two years, according to a company statement on Tuesday.
