True Canadian Energy

Amid Canada’s extreme oil and gas environments, dependable service remains a rare yet critical lifeline. From deep, high-pressure gas wells to thermal operations, every site presents its own technical and environmental challenges. Servicing this diversity demands beyond equipment; it requires adaptability, experience, and an unyielding focus on safety and performance.

True Canadian Energy exemplifies these qualities, delivering innovative wellhead and valve maintenance solutions for a wide range of oil and gas companies. Founded by industry veteran Douglas Schepp, the company repairs and restores critical components, producing new and remanufactured parts to save costs and minimize waste.

“What sets us apart is our communication, teamwork, and ability to solve problems, honed over 35 years of serving the oil and gas industry,” says Schepp.

The roots of this service-driven culture trace back to his industry journey, where decades of experience in wellhead services shaped a leadership style anchored in technology and teamwork. Complementing this foundation is Paul Lisoway, whose extensive background in wireline and well operations brings essential field expertise and operational precision. Their combined experience fuels True Canadian Energy’s integrity and innovation, providing practical solutions that include patented wellhead equipment and licensing for evolving oilfield needs.

Today, this synergy enables the company to deliver responsive service across Western Canada, from Saskatchewan to northwest British Columbia. It is strengthened by acquiring assets from FMC Technologies and hiring experienced personnel to support legacy customers and expand its service capabilities.

When confronted with equipment failure, well site challenges, or needs for product innovation, True Canadian Energy answers with speed and precision. The company ensures that valves from all types of manufacturers are thoroughly inspected, pressure-tested, and fully restored. Each product undergoes a complete teardown, damaged components are replaced, and units are rebuilt to function like new. It provides custom support for legacy equipment, with onboard engineers redesigning parts and ensuring safety in extreme conditions.

True Canadian Energy also provides specialized wellhead support services, offering customized pack-offs for casing vent leaks. The company’s engineering team develops practical, field-tested solutions, including a safer, more efficient seal-pulling system that surpasses conventional tools. For mining operators, it supplies quick-connect wellhead systems designed to reduce costs and streamline installation, a proven solution that continues to deliver reliable performance years after its introduction.

This pursuit of excellence is mirrored in True Canadian Energy’s service operations, where a strong emphasis on training ensures the personnel are fully prepared for field challenges. The relentless diligence has contributed to an impeccable safety record, with no incidents in the field, a testament to both skill and careful preparation.

By fostering strong relationships with major operators like Imperial, Cenovus, and Suncor, the company ensures uninterrupted operations and maintains production even amid economic uncertainty. Its full equipment remanufacturing and part replacement align with ESG imperatives that help clients reach both environmental and cost control goals without sacrificing performance or safety.

True Canadian Energy also adapts to varying site requirements and third-party billing structures to ensure compliance and operational efficiency for every client. The team culture ensures this efficiency is applied consistently across all operations. Employees from throughout the country bring a blend of youthful energy and veteran expertise, collectively contributing over 180 years of industry experience among just 10 professionals.

“Our strong culture encourages everyone to share ideas, support each other, find new solutions, and keep our customers’ equipment running,” says Lisoway, general manager.

Through daily communication, open collaboration, and inclusive input, every contribution is valued to ensure effective teamwork and successful problem-solving. Carrying this ethos forward, True Canadian Energy is driving progress in the oil and gas sector, bridging experience with innovation to power the future of Canadian energy.
