Tundra Oil & Gas, based in Winnipeg, is a private energy company wholly owned by James Richardson & Sons, Limited, a family business established in 1857. The company began operations in 1980 and has expanded through asset development and selective acquisitions. Its core assets are located in the Williston Basin across southwestern Manitoba and southeastern Saskatchewan, with a disciplined focus on exploration and development in those core areas. The company operates the majority of its production—about 38,000 barrels per day of light crude—primarily from its own assets, with offices spread across Winnipeg, Virden, Estevan, and Calgary, employing several hundred people. The Calgary office provides geological and engineering support, Virden manages daily field operations for more than 5,000 wells and facilities, and Winnipeg handles accounting, land administration, licensing and human resources; in 2022, Tundra named Steve Sommerfeld as Chief Financial Officer.
