Do you need snow for your natural gas or oilfield exploration and roadwork in the Dawson Creek area?
SnowGuns provides mobile snow making equipment and crews to oilfield companies and contractors who are in need of snow in a hurry. With our mobile snow making equipment we can empty a 5000 gallon water truck every hour. We can provide you with snow for ice roads, creek crossings, ravines, bridge approaches, pipeline crossings and stock piling.

Why Make Snow?
Natural Gas and Oil exploration requires extensive road networks to be built and that comes with a significant expense of manpower and money. Not too mention the construction of roads causes great ground disturbance and environmental concerns most contractors don’t to deal with.
For decades the winter time has been the “go-time” for work in the North Country because the ground is frozen, and access for heavy machinery and equipment becomes much easier when you’re not fighting the muskeg. Sometimes however… Mother nature doesn’t cooperate for whatever reason or you come across an obstruction that might be difficult to overcome without pushing a road. This is where our snow making services come into play.
With our industrial snow making equipment we can deliver enough snow to build natural bridges across ravines, creeks, ditches, muskeg and other rough terrain. The snow machines can run 24 hours a day and produce enough snow that can be pushed around with dozers and other machines. With an endless supply of snow you could get an early start on the season or just make sure that next project doesn’t get delayed because of access problems.
We can also provide generators and lights when you need our crews to be working through the night. If you need snow made for your construction project in Northen BC or Alberta give us a call or email us today.
