Chanwest’s first phase of operations bring to EGPI Firecreek’s oil and gas division a complement of assets and services used for hauling equipment, delivery and spreading of rock, iron ore, dirt and gravel used in lease roads, firewall’s, tank pads and drill sites.
This includes operations to provide dig pits for drill mud and for drill site preparation to clear and lay pipeline (gathering systems) for operators. Chanwest operations can maintain lease roads, set power poles and clean up oilfield spills.
EGPI’s newest wholly owned subsidiary will work alongside Energy Producers operations to evaluate potential acquisition and development strategies for the production of oil and gas operations, initially working towards rehabilitation targets in the Abeline, Texas area.
Dennis Alexander, CEO of EGPI, said: “We are extremely pleased with the acquisition of Chanwest and look forward to expanding our growth and depth in the oil and gas industry. We now have the ability to provide services, equipment and experienced personnel with significant history from within the industry.”
