A Denver-based energy company that explores for and produces oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids from shale-rock plays across the United States and Canada. It grew out of Encana, the firm created in 2002 by merging Alberta Energy Company and PanCanadian Energy, and it took the name Ovintiv in 2020 when it moved its headquarters from Calgary to Denver. The made-up word "Ovintiv" was crafted to nod to constant invention, and the logo's colored dashes are meant to evoke the human connection that energy makes possible.
