STW Resources Holding Corp. ("STW" or the "Company"), based in Midland, Texas, provides customized, cost-effective water reclamation services. The Company's service assesses each customer's water reclamation needs and provides consultation, oversight and operations on all project phases including analysis, regulatory, technology and implementation.
STW's services are applicable to several market segments including:
- Oil and gas producers (produced and flowback waters)
- Municipalities and private water resources owners (desalination, brackish water, municipal wastewater)
- Environmental remediation projects such as acid mine drainage ("AMD").
The Company's marketing efforts are focused on oil and gas producers in the Permian, Delaware, and Eagle Ford Basins in Texas, the Marcellus Shale Play in Pennsylvania, New York, and West Virginia, the gas shale plays in the United States, and brackish water in Texas.
As an independent solutions provider, STW utilizes proven technologies from various manufacturers. The Company's business is based on an owner/operator model whereby manufacturers maintain and warranty the equipment.
STW's expanded growth model employs a joint venturing strategy with manufacturers, oilfield service companies, oil and gas producers, and other water reclamation companies.
STW has worked for several years with many different manufacturers that provide various technologies for water reclamation in the oil and gas business. Although there are numerous technologies available that process water to standards acceptable for drilling and hydraulic fracturing operations, many are not cost-effective for operators. Determining an economically feasible solution depends on water chemistry and different contaminants in the water.
STW has entered into a contractual working relationship with Bob Johnson & Associates (BJJA), a full-service water treatment engineering firm in Houston comprised of highly qualified chemists and process design engineers with 36 years of experience in the design, engineering, fabrication and system construction, installation, operation and maintenance of water and wastewater treatment systems. The firm has worldwide recognition in handling problems associated with water contamination and the different processes required to clean water and has been involved in the design and installation of water treatment systems for over 7,000 customers world wide. Rather than being constrained by technologies owned by one manufacturer, our firm designs systems that may contain various components from several manufacturers. BJJA will operate and maintain the systems for STW on a contractual basis. STW will utilize these water treatment experts, chemists and process design engineers to help analyze oilfield water and design systems capable of treating the water so it can be reused for fracking or other oilfield uses. This allows STW to provide a more comprehensive and sophisticated treatment system tailored to the unique needs of each specific customer.
