Aug 1 (Reuters) - Canadian oil producer Imperial Oil ( IMO )

posted a fall in second-quarter profit on Friday,

driven by lower upstream realizations and downstream margin

capture.

The Calgary, Alberta-based company said its net income fell

to C$949 million ($684.31 million), or C$1.86 per share, in the

quarter ended March 31, from C$1.13 billion, or C$2.11 per

share, a year earlier.
