Ridgeline`s DWD consultants are experienced in oil and gas drilling operations across all western Canadian jurisdictions.

Ridgeline DWD design and drilling waste management services are cost effective and compliant. Every time. Our environmental consultants will:

• Provide sump suitability testing as per the AER Directive 50 requirements prior to sump construction.
• Supervise your sump construction and operations.
• Sample and test drilling waste with preferred Lab rates and turnaround times.
• Supervise drilling waste disposal on site or off site.
• Document and manage remote sump waste tracking.
• Efficiently, and effectively take care of pump off requirements when the need arises.

If the drilling waste is a candidate for on-site disposal, Ridgeline will ensure that both the AER Directive 50 and AESRD Tier 1 Criteria are met after mix-bury-cover or landspread operations.

If the waste is disposed off-site via pump-off or landspray, Ridgeline will map the disposal area using satellite imagery and GPS tracking, fully preparing you for a future drilling waste audit.
