Produced & Flowback Water
Lined, certified evaporation ponds plus an EPA-regulated Class I injection well — not a Class II well restricted to oil and gas water. Two disposal paths, and a far wider range of accepted streams.
Water servicesPiceance Basin · Western Colorado
The most cost-effective disposal option in the Piceance Basin.
Greenleaf accepts Exploration & Production water and solids — and a wide range of non-E&P contaminated soils and waters — at a permitted facility seven miles from De Beque. Central location, short hauls, and free oil recovered rather than buried.

What we handle
Five ways we take waste off your hands.
Bringing water and solids to the same location cuts your trucking miles and your paperwork — whether or not the material came from a wellhead.
Wet Solids
Tank bottoms, drilling mud, wet cuttings, and sludges. A proprietary process recovers the free oil, then the material is dewatered — solids to impoundment, liquid to the ponds or the injection well.
Wet solids processDry Solids
Section 3 certified landfill cells with liners, leachate collection, and dedicated unload pads — with capacity expanding onto neighboring property.
Dry solids processNon-E&P Soils & Water
Industrial, construction, and environmental cleanup soils and waters that never came near a wellhead. The EPA-regulated Class I well means there is very little we have to turn away.
Non-E&P streamsSoil & Water Remediation
Petroleum-impacted soil and water treated with accelerated biochemical treatment — at our facility, or on your site when the material is better handled where it sits.
RemediationPermitted for a wide range of soils and waters.
Lined impoundments, an EPA-regulated Class I injection well, certified landfill cells, and a treatment capability that works on contaminated soil — four pathways under one roof, which is why the list of streams Greenleaf has to turn away is a short one. Send us the analysis and we'll tell you where yours fits.
Why operators choose Greenleaf
Short hauls and a clean paper trail.
Disposal cost is only half the number on your AFE — the other half is the truck. Greenleaf's central position in the basin is what makes the all-in cost work.
- Central location. Seven miles from De Beque, in the middle of the basin — and we regularly take waste hauled from much further out.
- Water and solids at one gate. One facility, one set of manifests, one relationship.
- Financial assurance in place. An established trust covers closure and post-closure, so producers carry little cradle-to-grave liability.
- Permitted and inspected. Regulated by CDPHE's Hazardous Materials and Waste Management Division under a Mesa County Certificate of Designation.
- Room to grow. Solids capacity is expanding onto neighboring property, so multi-year programs aren't planning against a closing window.
