Solid Drilling Waste
Solid drilling waste is comprised of drilling mud and cuttings that cannot be pumped. Typically, it is solid cuttings with drilling mud, which contains solids, liquids and other additives, attached.
Solidification/Stabilization
Solidification/stabilization is a proven, field technology used to treat contaminated sediment, sludge and soils. Solidification/stabilization, one of the most commonly used in-situ remediation technologies that can be applied at drilling sites, involves mixing contaminated solid waste materials with treatment additives (or “reagents”) to cause physical or chemical changes that will reduce environmental impact.

Firmus Process
Our Firmus process is considered a viable recycling option under the EPA and API waste hierarchy. Based on accepted solidification and stabilization technology, this service includes the engineering for waste disposition and pit closure, the work to recycle the waste, and the confirmatory testing of the recycled material after placement.
Duro Process
Our Duro process is considered a recycle/treatment option under the EPA waste hierarchy. Based on accepted solidification and stabilization technology, this service includes the engineering for waste disposition and pit closure, the work to recycle/treat the waste, and the confirmatory testing of the recycled/treated material. This proprietary process was developed by Scott over several years, for use on freshwater mud and cuttings, oil-based mud and cuttings, and some saltwater mud and cuttings, too. The process treats drilling waste so that the reclaimed pit area can be reused as a load-bearing structure for setting frac tanks or other equipment during completion or after completion. This is typically accomplished by solidifying and stabilizing the mud and cuttings within the confines of the pit area. When there is no load-bearing structure use for the pit area, the Duro process is considered a treatment/disposal option.
