Saskatchewan sites, supplied from Red Deer
Natural gas and diesel generators for Saskatoon and Regina, the heavy oil and light oil fields, mine projects and farm yards.
Each set is matched to the site's voltage and fuel and run under load in the Red Deer shop before it leaves, with the cable, panels, tanks and heaters the job needs on the same quote.
Across the province
Saskatchewan rental power splits between its two cities, two quite different oilfields, the mines and the farm calendar. Each asks something different of the generator.
Industrial parks, commercial construction, standby
Contractors framing a building before its service is live, plants covering a planned outage, and businesses that want a set on hand while their own standby unit is repaired. Most of these sites are on 347/600 V, so say which voltage the panel is.
Construction generator rentalRefinery turnarounds, commercial and civic work
A plant turnaround fills a laydown with trailers, tool cribs, welders and lighting for weeks. One larger set with panels spread across the yard is often easier to manage than a row of portables, and the layout is worth settling before the dates arrive.
Turnaround and shutdown powerKindersley, Kerrobert, Unity, Macklin and the Lloydminster side
Pump drives, heat trace and tank heaters on leases that are producing before a power line reaches them. Casing gas can sometimes fuel the set; a gas analysis decides it. Leases near the border are covered on the Lloydminster page too.
Lloydminster generator rentalsEstevan, Weyburn, Carlyle and Stoughton
Light oil batteries, water handling and new wells waiting on a utility tie-in. Where there is solution gas on the lease, a natural gas set can burn it instead of trucked diesel, provided the volume and the analysis allow it.
Oilfield production powerConstruction, expansions and shutdown work
Mine projects need power for contractor compounds, camps and equipment long before permanent substations are commissioned, and again when sections shut down for maintenance. Bring the site's own access and safety requirements to the quote.
Mining powerGrain drying, aeration and yard power
Harvest runs dryers and aeration fans day and night, and a yard on single-phase service often cannot start the three-phase motors they use. A rented set covers the season and goes back when the bins are full.
Agriculture powerHow it is supplied
NexSource has a single location, at 77 Queensgate Cres in Red Deer. A Saskatchewan rental is wired for the voltage the site runs on, fitted for the fuel it will burn and load tested there, then loaded with everything the connection needs.
The written quote covers the set, the distribution, any fuel tank or gas regulation, heaters if they are wanted, and the transport. Nothing is left to sort out after the truck is booked.
NexSource holds COR and ISNetworld registration. What a particular Saskatchewan operator requires before work on its site is confirmed when the job is quoted.
On a gas line or a lease with usable gas, a natural gas set saves hauling fuel. The industrial natural gas rentals page covers what is checked first. Elsewhere, a diesel set with a fuel tank is the dependable choice.
Field service answers 24/7 at (403) 887-4567. Arrival depends on the site and the work already underway, so it is confirmed on each call.
For a written quote
Rough answers are enough to start. Sizing advice is free and comes with the quote; the generators by size table and the power calculators help if you want a figure first.
Saskatchewan rural sites use the same section, township and range system as Alberta. GPS coordinates work as well.
A motor list with horsepower and how each one starts, or a metered peak from the existing service.
347/600 V, 480 V or 120/208 V, three-phase. A set at one voltage can feed another through a transformer quoted with it.
A gas line or lease gas with its analysis, or no gas at all, in which case a diesel set comes with a fuel tank.
When power is needed and roughly for how long. Spring road restrictions on secondary roads can affect heavy loads, so mention the route in.
Heated hoarding, wellheads or equipment to keep warm. Flameless heaters can go in the same quote.

Saskatchewan questions
Yes. Natural gas and diesel generators, with distribution, fuel tanks and heaters, are rented to Saskatchewan sites and quoted the same way as Alberta ones. Every unit ships from the NexSource shop at 77 Queensgate Cres in Red Deer.
No. Red Deer is the only location. Equipment for a Saskatchewan site is set up and load tested there, and the transport is part of the written quote.
Yes, both cities and the areas around them. Send the address, the loads and the dates and the quote names the set, the cable and panels, and the transport from Red Deer.
Yes. Many units are listed for sale as well as rent. The natural gas and diesel sales pages list what is available, and any unit can be quoted for delivery to Saskatchewan.
The site's own licensed electrician, or a contractor arranged as part of the rental package. The quote sets out the cable, panels and any transfer switch, and who is responsible for the connection.
It can when the volume is steady enough and the gas analysis suits the engine. Send a recent analysis and the flow you can count on. If the gas will not carry the load, a diesel set with a tank is the alternative.
Field service answers around the clock at (403) 887-4567. How soon someone can be at the site depends on where it is and what work is already underway, so that is confirmed on the call rather than promised ahead of time.
Send the location, the loads, the fuel and the dates. The quote comes back in writing with the set, the connection equipment and the transport from Red Deer.
