Generators for Mining / Oil & Gas
From remote oil fields to rugged mining sites, Generator Source delivers robust generator solutions to keep your operations thriving under the harshest conditions. Generator Source ensures uninterrupted power for drilling rigs, pumps, refineries, ventilation systems, and heavy mining equipment.

Which Generators Power Mining and the Oil & Gas Industries?
Choosing the right generator size is critical for maintaining uninterrupted operations in oil, gas, and mining. Based on industry standards and our extensive sales data, here’s how generator sizes align with your needs:
Small Operations (20-400kW)
Perfect for auxiliary power needs like lighting or small pumps at drilling sites or mining camps. A 350 kW Cummins powers lighting, small pumps, and site offices reliably.
Medium Operations (400-1100kW)
Suitable for mid-sized drilling rigs or mining ventilation systems. A 750 kW Caterpillar supports drilling equipment, ventilation fans, and temporary facilities.
Large Operations (1100kW+)
Essential for large-scale drilling operations or major mining sites. A 2000 kW Cummins powers heavy-duty extraction equipment, large compressors, and site-wide operations.
