Regulatory News:
Veolia (Paris:VIE) announced today that it has been selected
by Antero Resources, through its subsidiary Veolia Water North
America Operating Services L.L.C, to manage the sophisticated
process of loading, packaging, transporting and proper disposal of
water treatment sludge generated at its Clearwater Facility near
Pennsboro, West Virginia. Antero, a leading independent natural gas
and oil company, selected Veolia through its subsidiary Veolia
North America, which will be supported by the expertise of Veolia’s
Nuclear Solutions entity.
The contract will take advantage of Veolia’s best-in-class
offerings in providing holistic solutions to tackle the world’s
toughest waste challenges for clients when it comes to
environmental waste and remediation support.Under this up to
10-year, $70 million contract, Veolia will utilize its broad
expertise to address the water treatment sludge produced at the
facility. This includes collecting and treating TENORM –
technologically enhanced, naturally occurring radioactive materials
which are exposed to the environment as a result of human
activities – highlighting Veolia’s ability to deal with the range
of clients’ toughest and complex waste needs.
“Veolia’s broad and comprehensive expertise allows us to provide
this vital service for Antero and we’re pleased they have selected
us to handle this important work,” said Veolia North America
president and CEO William J. “Bill” DiCroce. “Ensuring the safe and
efficient treatment and recycling of water is a vital part of oil
and gas exploration activities, and it is critical that the
materials generated from that work are properly managed,” added
Steve Hopper, executive vice president and chief operating
officer of Veolia North America Industrial Water and Regeneration
Services.
In 2015, Antero contracted with Veolia to design, build, operate
and maintain the water treatment and recycling plant near
Pennsboro. The facility’s construction is under commission. The
sludge-related services agreed to in today’s contract will be
provided in addition to the construction and operation-maintenance
of that facility, which includes the scope of low-level TENORM
waste segregation.
As part of the agreement, Veolia will also provide a
comprehensive Environmental Health and Safety program to protect
Veolia’s employees and subcontractors, the public, and the
environment.
“Segregation and disposal of TENORM waste in a safe and reliable
manner to an approved landfill is key to Antero’s operations,” said
Al Schopp, SVP and Chief Administrative Officer for Antero
Resources. “Veolia’s expertise in providing a comprehensive
solution for TENORM waste segregation and management has been great
value to Antero in achieving its long term sustainability
goals.”
Once completed, the Clearwater facility will treat and recycle
60,000 barrels of produced water a day.
