Petro Waste Environmental (PWE) is opening an oil reclamation and washing facility this fall in South Texas that will serve operators in the Eagle Ford Shale.

San Antonio-based PWE is building the facility one mile east of Tilden, Texas in McMullen County. The facility should be completed in November and will have the ability to process non-hazardous oilfield drilling by-products from exploration and production companies operating in the Eagle Ford in a safe manner.

Oilfield customers also will be able to bring their vacuum trucks and transport trailers to be washed out at the facility. PWE staff will also throughly clean company’s frac tanks on a four-bay truck wash pad.

In addition to this new facility in Tilden, PWE also has saltwater disposal wells throughout other regions of the state that produce oil and natural gas. The company is working to become one of the largest operators of oilfield waste processing and disposal facilities across the country.
