The February oil and gas public offering raised $7 million in revenue with most of that coming from bids in the Estevan and Swift Current areas.

The Estevan area brought in almost $3.5 million for once exploration license while the Swift Current area generated more than $2.1 million for 24 leases.

This offering is the last of the 2025-26 fiscal year and through six public offerings, the Government of Saskatchewan raised $67,256,180.34 in revenue. This represents a 29 per cent increase from the $51,814,614.76 generated in fiscal 2024-25.

The August 2025 public offering accounts for much of this increase. The government says that month’s revenue total of more than $24.3 million was the most such revenue generated in a public offering since 2014.

The first public offering for the 2026-27 fiscal year is scheduled for April 7, 2026.
