The pilot for the new one-hour show is slated to begin production in December for a tentative 2008 premiere.
"Warehouse 13" is based on a script by Rockne O'Bannon, Jane Espenson and D. Brent Mote and will be produced by Universal Media Studios.
"Like our successful series 'Eureka,' 'Warehouse 13' is a fun, intriguing concept that should continue to broaden our audience through present-day, relatable stories with an imaginative twist," Mark Stern, SCI FI's executive vice president of original programming, said in a statement. "Rockne has delivered a wonderful script and we can't wait to get this into production."
