Critical Service Offering in the Anticline Competitive Advantage Primary Growth Opportunities Anticline Water Segment • There are over 1,990 active wells producing 53,400 barrels per day of waste water in the Pinedale Anticline • Wells drilled in the area utilize hydraulic fracking, which require 1- 3 million gallons of water per well, increasing the amount of waste water being generated in the area • HSE’s services are critical in the Pinedale Anticline as a result of a strong emphasis on the part of E&P companies to safely dispose of this water and to reuse as much of it as possible • The top 3 operators in the Pinedale formed an alliance with the BLM (1) to ensure responsible development in the Pinedale, with particular emphasis on water usage and disposal • Specifically, the E&P companies have 2 critical concerns: • Ensuring that the water both used and produced during the drilling process does not impact underground drinking water sources or wildlife habitats • The ability to access water for drilling operations in an efficient, cost effective way through recycling and re-use • Only full scale commercial water recycling and treatment facility in the Pinedale capable of handling the water needs of the producers in the area • Pinedale region has limited private land availability for any potential competing facilities of size • Geology in the area is not conducive to disposal wells • Approximately 90% of volumes are deliver or pay contracts • Expansion of operations from the Pinedale down into the Jonah and emerging fields to the southwest of the Jonah • As one moves southwest, the gas becomes richer • The Pinedale averages 1,050 BTU gas • The Jonah averages 1,150 BTU gas _____________________ Bureau of Land Management. Of the approximately 200,000 acres in the Pinedale, an estimated150,000 belong to the BLM. The majority of the mineral leases in the Pinedale underlie BLM surface land.
