Founder & CEO Ron Carson

Carson Energy Services has evolved from its first incarnation as a small welding contractor in 1974 to one of the energy services industry's most respected companies today, covering four provinces with 13 full-service locations.

With an exceptionally diverse array of services, CES is well positioned to serve its clientele anywhere in Saskatchewan, Alberta, B.C. and Manitoba.

History

The Company has grown exponentially in the past 35 years. Originally set up as a small contractor with a single welding truck, the Company has become a major competitor in the energy services sector of Western Canada. Crew trucks and construction equipment were added to the Company's repertoire. Through the hard work and perseverance of its founder, Ron Carson, CES has been able to evolve along with a changing industry, experiencing sustained and profitable growth.

In 1985, the Company hit the milestone of exceeding 100 employees, and in the 1990s, professionals in accounting, safety and quality control joined the Carson team. As time went on, the Company diversified to encompass services throughout the industry, and became known for cost effective, safe and environmentally responsible solutions for its clientele.

Today, more than 900 individuals are proud to call CES their employer. The Company's inventory includes some 2,500 pieces of equipment, and CES prides itself on its track record of delivering on its promises, and maintaining its commitment to the industry, its employees, its communities and its clients.

In March, 2009 the Company changed its name to Carson Energy Services in order to better reflect the increased range of services it offers - but kept the character, quality, dedication and service on which our clients have come to rely.
