Compare published services and locations

This directory focuses on oil and gas well contractors. A utility crossing, water well or geotechnical investigation needs a different scope and may need a different specialist. Service labels describe company-wide offerings; confirm the Canadian team and equipment available for your project.

Which type of contractor do you need?

Land drilling contractor: Start here when your project requires a drilling rig and crew. Supply the technical brief prepared by your project team and ask the contractor to explain which rig package it proposes.
Directional drilling provider: Ask who supplies well-path planning, directional personnel, surveying and downhole tools, and which parts are included in the rig contractor’s quotation. Read the directional drilling buyer guide.
Well servicing contractor: For work on an existing well, explain the intended intervention and ask the provider to identify the suitable service package. Do not treat drilling and well servicing labels as interchangeable.

Prepare a comparable request for quotation

Give each company the same project area, proposed dates, duration and technical scope from your project team. Ask for equipment specifications, a named operating contact, mobilization assumptions, inclusions, exclusions and quote validity. Record which resources are confirmed and which depend on another job finishing.

A Calgary head-office address does not tell you where a rig is working today. A Nisku operating address does not mean equipment is available. Use the published contact to obtain a dated response for your project.

Before you contact a supplier

Describe the service and project area. Ask which office or service base should handle the inquiry.
Provide your proposed dates and request confirmation of suitable crew and equipment availability.
Ask for a written scope with inclusions, exclusions and mobilization assumptions.
Check project-specific qualifications directly; a directory listing is not a certification.
