High-quality, oilfield-grade Waukesha L5794GSI 1MW (1029 kW) natural gas generator packages are available for sale in Alberta, Canada. These fully enclosed, skid-mounted units were built by Alberta oilfield manufacturers and designed specifically for reliable operation in harsh Canadian climates.

At Crusader, we first became familiar with this package design after installing four nearly identical units at a client’s power site in central Alberta. The specification and performance impressed us enough that a fifth unit was later constructed from scratch. When seven additional packages became available, we were excited to bring them to market.

Top-Tier Alberta Oilfield Generator Packages

These are premium oilfield-style packages built with durability and maintainability in mind. Features include:

  • Waukesha L5794GSI natural gas engines
  • 1029 kW output
  • 480V, 60Hz configuration
  • Fully enclosed skid-mounted buildings
  • Full fin-tube cooling systems
  • Deep oil pans for extended oil change intervals
  • Integrated glycol and oil systems in the rails
  • Overhead crane for simplified top-end maintenance
  • Alberta-built oilfield construction

Upgradeable to 1.2MW

One of the unique advantages of these packages is that the generators and cooling systems are already sized for 1.2MW operation.

As major overhauls become due, owners have the option to exchange the L5794GSI core for a Waukesha L7044GSI, effectively increasing output to 1.2MW while utilizing the existing alternator and package infrastructure.

Two units are currently candidates for overhaul, while five additional units have lower hours and are available for immediate shipment.

Available for Inspection in Alberta

These generator packages are located in central Alberta and are available for inspection and viewing.

Now, I’m excited to share these with you today. Top tier 1 megawatt Waukesha generator packages. Now, we first came aware of these when we installed four of them up at our site in central Alberta.

Since then, our customer even had us construct another one from scratch, all working flawlessly. Then, out of nowhere, seven more appeared, and we’re excited to bring those to you today.

So, why do I call them top tier? Well, for one, they’re built in Alberta by Alberta oil field manufacturing companies. They’ve got all the things that you want to think about for a cold weather package.

First of all, they’re skidded housed in full oil field style. We don’t have a simple radiator. We have a full fin tube cooler. We got an extra deep oil pan for extended oil changes. We’ve got the integrated glycol and oil in the rails along with an overhead crane for quick top-end overhauls.

Now, two of these are requiring overhauls, which is a good point to jump off on because all of the generators in these packages are actually rated for 1.2 megawatt.

Meaning, when this 5794 is due for a full overhaul, you can submit your core and get back a 7044 in exchange, and now you’ve upgraded your generator to a full 1.2 megawatt.

There’s five additional that have lower hours on them that don’t require any work at all, and they can be shipped out immediately. They’re sitting out in central Alberta as well and they’re available for inspection or viewing.

If you want to check out our website, we’ve got videos of them running. Or if you’re a good client, you can come out to site here and we’ll show you how they’re running in person.
