Energy and Oil and Gas Security in Regina

Well sites, pumping stations, substations and tank farms across southern Saskatchewan are often unstaffed overnight, and many sit at the end of a gravel road. Tools, copper, fuel and equipment are easy to reach for anyone willing to cut a lock. Secure Defence protects energy sites around Regina with live video monitoring. Trained, licensed operators watch your cameras in real time and stop theft, tampering and trespassing while they're still starting.

What the data shows

Oilfield theft is a real problem in southern Saskatchewan. In June 2025, police in the Carlyle area reported a notable increase in break-ins at oilfield worksites around Redvers and Manor over four weeks, and encouraged site managers to add better lighting, surveillance systems and more secure storage (SaskToday, Jun 16, 2025).

It hasn't stopped. In September 2026, two people on a side-by-side towing a trailer with a slip tank took hoses, safety equipment and insulation from an oil company site north of Lampman (SaskToday, Sep 17, 2026).

How we stop it at a remote site

Picture a well site south of Regina at 2 am. A side-by-side pulling a small trailer comes up the lease road and stops beside the equipment shed.

Our cameras flag the movement the moment it starts. An operator in our command centre sees the live picture within seconds and swings a PTZ camera in for a closer look. The operator speaks through the speaker and tells them they are on camera and police are being called. If they keep going, the siren and strobes go off. With a crime confirmed, the operator calls for Verified Police Response with a description, the vehicle and its direction of travel, and stays on the line until police arrive.

That's a 1-minute verified response. Because a person checks every alert, there are zero false alarms. Our clients see 98%+ overall crime reduction. More on our live video monitoring page.

evidence packages, timelines and reports for police, insurers and your own safety team.

Integration

with your existing cameras, usually the same day, plus gate access control, LPR and GPS tracking for equipment that moves between sites.

Built for Saskatchewan sites

1

Your local rep visits the site and sends a recommended layout and quote within 24 to 48 hours.

2

Remote sites get a solar camera tower within 24 hours. Each tower carries 4 to 8 cameras, and the battery lasts 2 weeks without sun, winter included. See off-grid solutions.

3

Powered sites such as plants and yards get pole cameras in 5 to 7 days, with a 24-hour backup power system.

All our equipment is rated to -40 C, so a prairie cold snap won't take it down.

Guards, insurance and our guarantee

Clients save up to 70% compared with on-site guards, and a guard in a truck at one gate can't see a valve site down the road. Guards are still available as a secondary option for a shutdown or a major project. The service is insurance-approved, and our 30-Day Performance Guarantee lets you see the results before you commit.
