Corporate Overview

Integrated Water Treatment and Environmental Services

BACKGROUND

Through our environmental services and remediation divisions, Ridgeline Environment and Ridgeline GreenFill, the Company has built a reputation as an established provider of environmental services to North America's oil and gas industry. Ridgeline Energy Services Inc. started as an environmental services company to the oil and gas industry in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin over a decade ago. Following an assessment of client needs the company added soil remediation to its service offering in 2009, and similar client needs drove our quest for a flexible and commercially viable technology for waste water treatment. Now, through our subsidiary Ridgeline Water Sciences, the Company is applying proprietary technology to treat water generated from industrial and commercial waste water markets. These markets include a wide variety of clients across a broad spectrum of industries including oil and gas, manufacturing, chemicals production and restaurants. The Company is working with energy companies and industry experts in the application of our technology for the recycle and reuse of produced and hydraulic fracturing water, enhanced oil recovery water, chemical flood operations and oil sands process water.

Economic challenge

The cost associated with water acquisition, disposal and storage is significant. As industrial and energy production increases, provision of water recycling and handling is becoming a critical service required by industrial waste water generators and the oil and gas industry.

Ridgeline's Solution

We have developed and commercialized a unique technology capable of treating large quantities of waste water in a cost effective manner with the ability to extract useable hydrocarbons when present. This system provides scalable cost saving solutions that minimize environmental risks and operating costs associated with waste water treatment. As well we offer a low cost water containment system.
