Saskatchewan Oil & Gas Show

Weyburn, Saskatchewan

A PSAC endorsed show

1989

The June 1989 Show had 233 exhibitors, 5000 in attendance and was highlighted by the first ever Saskatchewan Oil Patch Reunion. It attracted over 800 Saskatchewan born industry people who have worked throughout the Industry, to return to Saskatchewan from all over North America.

Also, in conjunction with the Show and Reunion, we established several awards which will be considered an ongoing event with future Shows.  These awards consist of Saskatchewan Hall of Fame Inductees. These awards are presented to past and present Saskatchewan residents who have made their mark by building, developing, and enhancing the oil and gas industry in Canada and beyond.

The 1st Saskatchewan Oilman of the Year Award was presented to Mr. Ken Stan of Septre Resources.  Ken Stan and Sceptre Resources Limited developed and applied steam assisted recovery to heavy oil reserves through horizontally drilled producing wells for the first time in Saskatchewan.

The Hall of Fame Inductees included Mr. James Christopher, Professor Edmunds, Mr. Joe Badyk of Prudential Steel, Mr. John Stoik of Gulf Canada, Mr. Arden Haynes of Imperial Oil, Mr. Daryl Seaman of Bow Valley Industries, and Mr. Charles Hay of Gulf
