Tailings pond dewatering
Calgary crews dewater tailings ponds as part of the oil sands work supported from this yard.
Western Canada
Separation and Dewatering Services in Calgary, AB.
Working range
Built for
Alberta conditions.
The Calgary team supports Alberta oil sands and heavy oil across the Athabasca, Peace River, and Cold Lake regions, plus Saskatchewan heavy oil and British Columbia. Crews work in conditions that swing from roughly minus 40 C in winter to plus 35 C in summer, which shapes how a system is staged, insulated and run. Calgary holds a centrifuge fleet and a shop, and equipment moves across the border between the Canadian and US yards as projects need it.

Calgary, Alberta
Calgary stages the fleet for Western Canada.
The Calgary yard holds a centrifuge fleet and a shop supporting Alberta oil sands and heavy-oil work across Athabasca, Peace River, and Cold Lake, plus Saskatchewan heavy oil and British Columbia. Equipment moves across the border between the Canadian and US yards as projects require it. Call the office or get directions to reach the team.
Tailings, produced water, and heavy-oil separation.
Calgary supports tailings pond dewatering, SAGD produced water, heavy-oil separation, and industrial waste processing across Alberta, Saskatchewan heavy oil, and British Columbia.
SAGD produced water and heavy-oil separation
The team separates SAGD produced water and heavy oil across Athabasca, Peace River, and Cold Lake.
A fleet staged for the season
Calgary holds a centrifuge fleet and a shop, and equipment moves across the border between the Canadian and US yards, so a winter job and a summer job can each be staged from what is closest.
Built for Western Canada's range
Different regions, different waste streams, one Calgary yard.
Athabasca oil sands, Peace River and Cold Lake heavy oil, Saskatchewan heavy oil, and British Columbia projects each bring a different waste stream to the Calgary team. Tailings, produced water, and industrial waste all need their own separation approach, staged out of the same yard.
Dewater tailings ponds
Tailings pond dewatering is a standing part of the oil sands work Calgary supports.
Handle SAGD produced water
SAGD produced water moves through the same separation process crews use on heavy-oil projects.
Separate heavy oil
Heavy-oil separation covers work across Alberta and Saskatchewan, not only the oil sands proper.
Move equipment across the border
Equipment moves between the Canadian and US yards, so the Calgary fleet is not limited to what is already on site.
