Alberta Heavy Oil Well Servicing was founded in 2009. From the beginning, our strategy has always been to establish a service rig company that would be a technological leader in the oil and gas industry. Our main focus to date has been in both cold flow, and thermal heavy oil sectors of Alberta.  Our rigs are based in Bonnyville, however they work from Lloydminster to Cold Lake and from Athabasca to Wabasca.  We are also very well versed, and equipped to work in conventional oil and gas environments.

We are currently adding to our proven fleet of technologically advanced service rigs. With an extreme passion for our industry, we will continue to grow at a steady and manageable pace. We will continue to make our clients’ needs, our high environmental standards, and our safety culture our highest priorities.
