Who We Are

Sandpiper Energy serves the Worcester County area located on the Eastern shore of Maryland. Our service area includes Ocean City, West Ocean City, Ocean Pines, Berlin, Pocomoke and Snow Hill.

A wholly-owned subsidiary of Chesapeake Utilities, Sandpiper Energy owns more than 300 miles of natural gas distribution mains. Originally comprised of propane gas distribution systems acquired in 2013, Sandpiper Energy now distributes natural gas and propane gas to approximately 11,000 residential, commercial and industrial customers in Worcester County, Maryland.

Sandpiper Energy brought natural gas service to the town of Ocean City, Maryland, as part of an ongoing initiative to increase energy options for residents.

Sandpiper Energy converted approximately 10,000 accounts from propane gas to natural gas, reducing carbon emissions by more than 3,500 tons — the equivalent of taking more than 600 cars off of the road.
