History

Kansas Gas Service was formed in 1997. It has been known under a variety of names – Gas Service Company, Kansas Gas and Electric Company, KPL and KPL Gas Service - with an 85-year tradition of utility service to customers in Kansas, western Missouri and northeastern Oklahoma. In 1997 when ONEOK, Inc., purchased natural gas assets from Western Resources, the new company was named Kansas Gas Service.[3]
