Corporate

We are excited to announce that following a corporate amalgamation Rotex Energy will be operating as Plains Environmental. This corporate change will be effective September 2011, and we look forward to adding these services to the list of offering we have for our clients.

We are an environmental waste management company specializing in the disposal of oilfield and industrial waste. With operating facilities in Melville and Willmar Saskatchewan, our innovative and environmentally friendly facilities can ensure the safe and efficient processing of your waste in either liquid or solid form.

Plains Environmental Inc. is committed to the Saskatchewan people to carry out our activities and meet the needs of our customers in an environmentally responsible manner, always providing the utmost protection to the public, our staff, and improving the environment in which we service and operate.

Melville

The Melville facility utilizes underground caverns that were originally designed for high pressure gas storage, which results in caverns that offer superior impermeability, safety in durability, and an environmental integrity which is unmatched.


Designed to store high pressure gas (natural gas storage) securely at pressures up to 3000 psi, this world-class facility utilizes these sealed underground caverns along with the most demanding environmental standards to ensure the integrity of our operation. Combined with this, is the sealed holding of the wastes and the eventual hydrocarbon recovery, leaving only clean dirt and salt water in the cavern at decommissioning. As the nature of the waste is treated and disposed of, so too are any of our clients' liability concerns.

By utilizing underground caverns that were originally designed for high pressure gas storage, we ensure the sealed holding of the wastes from airborne pollution and promote the eventual hydrocarbon recovery. We look forward to leaving only clean dirt and salt water in the caverns at decommissioning, ensuring the integrity of our operation to the environment and to our clients.

Willmar

Rotex Energy is now operating under Plains Environmental

The Willmar waste management facility provides for the treatment, processing and disposal of oilfield byproducts generated by the upstream petroleum industry. Our facility offers waste management, truck/tank washing, steaming and water disposal. Accepted products include crude oil emulsions, tank and vessel residual solids, hydrocarbon contaminated soils, produced water and drilling byproducts.


Plains has developed a source well and approved storage cell capable of supplying large volumes of water suitable and compatible for well fracturing and completion requirements. The Willmar facility has the ability to heat and mix completion waters to typical Bakken reservoir temperatures for delivery resulting in significant on-lease heating cost savings. At Plains we are pleased that providing this environmentally friendly service enables a reduction in the use of large volumes of fresh water resources for multistage horizontal completions.

Plains Environmental is committed to protecting the environment through the proper design, construction and operation of its facilities. Operating with the highest standards of environmental quality, safety and compliance, Plains welcomes facility audits and visits by present and future customers.
