Our Story
Founded in 2009 in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Arctic Thermal Oil Systems emerged from a critical need in Canada's oil sector: reliable thermal protection for infrastructure operating in extreme cold climates.
Our founders, experienced petroleum engineers and thermal management specialists, recognized that traditional heating solutions were failing to meet the unique challenges of Arctic and sub-Arctic operations. Equipment failures, freeze-related shutdowns, and excessive energy consumption were costing the industry millions annually.
Starting with a single pipeline heating project in northern Alberta, we developed innovative thermal control systems that dramatically improved operational reliability while reducing energy expenses. Word spread quickly across Canada's oil industry, and within five years, Arctic Thermal Oil Systems became the trusted partner for companies operating in the country's most challenging environments.
Today, with over 200 successful projects completed and a team of dedicated thermal management specialists, we continue to push the boundaries of cold-climate engineering, ensuring that Canada's oil infrastructure operates safely and efficiently year-round.
