Milestone Environmental Services Expanding in the Permian Basin
- #OilandGas--Milestone Environmental Services (Milestone), an industry leader in oil
and gas waste management, announced the ground breaking of its new
oilfield waste disposal facility located south of Midland. The new South
Midland facility marks Milestone’s second in the Permian Basin and their
eighth in Texas. The site is planned to open in the fourth quarter of
2017. Milestone plans to hire approximately 20 additional employees to
run the facility and hiring
is scheduled to begin in September.
The South Midland facility will be capable of taking drilling, completion and production waste streams including oil-based and water-based muds, drilling fluids, flowback, tank bottoms, dirty water and produced water. Using its proprietary slurry injection process, Milestone securely injects a mixture of the waste streams over a mile below the earth’s surface where they are safely sequestered beneath multiple confining layers of stone. The facility has been designed to efficiently provide full-service washouts for trucks and frac tanks.
Site Selection and Design
“This expansion reflects Milestone’s deep commitment to the Permian. We are proud to enable E&P operators to produce energy in a more environmentally sustainable manner,” said President and Chief Executive Officer, Gabriel Rio. “With the addition of our South Midland facility, Milestone will be well positioned to serve E&P operators in the Midland Basin.”
“The design of this facility will provide improved safety, efficiency and capacity, plus reduce truck unloading and washout times for E&P customers,” said Jason Larchar, director of engineering. “We have incorporated sound engineering principles and the best equipment available, as well as feedback from our customers and our operations and safety teams at Milestone. The South Midland site will be our most efficient, safest and highest capacity oilfield waste disposal facility we have built so far.”
