Star West Petroleum: Powering Partnerships Across the North

Star West Petroleum Ltd. is a proudly British Columbia–owned and operated company headquartered in Prince George. Providing fuel and lubricant supply, storage solutions, and technical services to industries across Western Canada, Star West has earned its reputation as a trusted energy partner. As a Phillips 66 Top Tier Marketer, the company is a preferred supplier to the mining sector—serving operations from the coast to the far north.

Star West’s connection to Newmont runs deep. The company has supported the Red Chris Mine since its construction in 2012 and now provides lubricant supply for both Newmont’s Red Chris and Brucejack operations. In addition, Star West holds a long-term supply contract with the Tahltan Nation Development Corporation (TNDC) construction arm—an enduring partnership grounded in trust and performance.

Committed to advancing reconciliation and shared prosperity, 25% of Star West’s workforce identifies as Indigenous. The company works closely with Nations across Canada to create employment and training opportunities throughout its network. In Tahltan Territory, Star West proudly partners with Dease Valley Industries and its president, Hankin Asp, a long-time collaborator since his days as TNDC’s Chief Operating Officer. Together, they not only power Newmont’s projects but also support community initiatives, from youth sports to local development—fueling both progress and pride in the North.
