Quinn's Oilfield Supply Ltd. was founded by James Quinn in Red Deer back in 1965.  In 1974 Quinn’s decided to start manufacturing products due to long delivery delays.

Doug started working at the company full time in 1991 after retiring from competitive hockey and completing his BA in Economics and a Management minor from the University of Calgary. 

Since becoming the President & CEO, Quinn’s has experienced significant growth from 7 stores to 20 across Western Canada, adding 20 stores in the United States and a PC Pump manufacturing facility in Saskatchewan.

Today, Doug is active in coaching minor hockey, plays adult league hockey and is a regular sponsor & donates to many different organizations within our communities.

With a constant vision of surpassing the customers’ expectations Doug has led Quinn’s to become a Leader in Workmanship, Quality & Service for down hole and PC pumps.

Wendell Mortensen started working in the Ventura, CA pump shop for Axelson in 1981.  After working 12 years in the shop, he took on various positions in sales and management and in 1995 became District Manager until Halliburton purchased Axelson in 1998, and was put in charge of materials globally.  In 2001, Halliburton sold Axelson to Weatherford and was offered a position working overseas which wouldn’t work for Wendell’s family so he took a job at CDI as Technical Services Manager in the West Coast and the Rockies and in 2002,  went to work for Quinn Pumps.

Wendell started Quinn Pumps in California with one other person starting from the absolute ground up with no computers, inventory, shop, or customers. Wendell did have confidence in Quinn’s quality though, so he was certain Quinn could succeed in California.  In a short time, Ventura was a functioning shop with good sales and over the next 5 years opened up additional shops in Taft, Santa Maria, and Bakersfield.  Sales have increased dramatically every year.   Wendell is now managing all four shops in California as our California Regional Manager and has contributed much of our success due to his desire and passion to succeed in everything he does.
