A quarter century ago, our construction crews were a main attraction for children spending their summers at Kenosee Provincial Park. SaskEnergy employees worked for several summers to extend gas service to cabins in the area in the late 1990s. “Some kids, you couldn’t get rid of them. They’re pointing and looking; the parents want to go, but the kids want to stay and see us work,” says Dale Staudt, a Crew Lead with our southern Saskatchewan Construction team. “We would stop and explain what we were doing and show them. We’d stand back with the parent and watch one of our guys dig. For a small...

Brrrrr it’s cold in here! Luckily, there’s a quick fix! With the simple press of a button on your thermostat you’ll soon be nice and toasty. That was the case for many of SaskEnergy’s customers in February, as they used 36 per cent more gas than they did for the same month in 2024.

It makes our day-to-day lives much easier, but not all communities enjoy that same benefit.” SaskEnergy currently provides service to 52 Saskatchewan First Nations, with projects underway to increase...

Ever wonder how new homes, cabins or businesses get connected to our natural gas system? SaskEnergy’s Customer Connect Technicians (CCTs) are instrumental to this process. Adam Colvine works as a CCT in Saskatoon and the surrounding rural area. He personally sees customers’ connection process through from start to finish, to make it as easy as possible to get service. “A highlight of the job is getting to know people, and hearing their stories of how and why they’re building their dream home or cabin. I like being a part of figuring out the best solutions that will help them realize their...

SaskEnergy Planning and Dispatch Representatives (PDRs) help coordinate daily activities and support emergency response for our Operations teams across the province. No two days are the same, which is why they all have one thing in common — they work well under pressure! “A good PDR is adaptable, communicates well, and has the ability to stay calm when things shift quickly,” says Planning & Dispatch Representative Breanna Cattell who works at SaskEnergy’s Regina Service Centre. “You have to be able to reprioritize in real time without losing your footing.” “Within the PDR roles there are a...
