Fort McMurray
 
[fɔːt mək'mʌrɪ], Bergbaustadt im Nordosten der Provinz Alberta, Kanada, am Athabasca, (1991) 34 700 Einwohner (1961: 1 200 Einwohner). Der wirtschaftliche Aufschwung der Stadt ist durch die Nutzung der Ölsandvorkommen der Umgebung bedingt. 1974 beziehungsweise 1978 nahmen zwei Werke die Produktion auf, die den ölhaltigen Sand im Tagebau fördern und das Öl, das etwa 10 % des kanadischen Bedarfs deckt, heraustrennen. Die Ölreserven im gesamten Bereich werden bis zu 50 Mrd. m3 geschätzt.
