CALGARY -- Cenovus Energy Inc. says it is planning to cut about 15 per cent of its workforce as it looks to reduce costs next year.
The company (TSX:CVE) says it expects to find savings in areas such as drilling performance, development planning and optimized scheduling of oilsands well start-ups.
The cuts come as Cenvous says it plans between $1.5 billion and $1.7 billion in capital spending next year, mostly in the oilsands.
That compares with its guidance for capital spending this year of $1.55 billion to $1.65 billion.
Cenovus chief executive Alex Pourbaix says the company's priorities for 2018 are to reduce costs and deleverage its balance sheet while maintaining capital discipline.
The company expects to reduce its per-barrel oil sands operating costs by eight per cent next year and per-barrel oil sands sustaining capital costs by 12 per cent compared with its 2017 forecast.
