Salt Water Disposal Facilities in Texas — Built Right, First Time

Full-scope engineering, procurement, and construction for salt water disposal (SWD) facilities across the Permian Basin and the rest of Texas — from raw site to commissioned, monitored operation. One contractor, start to finish, wherever your lease sits.

Every SWD site is different — different formation, different volumes, different regulatory footprint. We scope and build to your site, not off a shelf template.

The Service

A single EPC contractor for salt water disposal facilities in Texas

EPCM Holdings designs, procures, constructs, and commissions salt water disposal (SWD) facilities for oil and gas operators across the Permian Basin and the rest of Texas. Salt water — the produced water that comes up alongside oil and gas — has to go somewhere safe, compliant, and cost-effective, and that's the facility we build.

We handle the full journey: equipment design, procurement, installation, construction, and commissioning — plus aftermarket support and digital monitoring once the facility is running. Whether you need a full turnkey site built from raw ground, or an existing facility refurbished, upgraded, or optimized, it's the same team from first drawing to final handover.

Built For Every Injection Application

We work on all types of injection wells

01

Disposal Wells

The core of the business: dedicated salt water disposal wells for oil and gas operations, engineered to take produced water volumes safely and permanently out of the surface environment.

02

Commercial Disposal Facilities

Multi-operator, third-party disposal sites built to handle produced water from multiple leases and haulers, with the throughput and receiving infrastructure that commercial operations demand.

03

Industrial Injection Wells

Facilities built to handle industrial process water and wastewater streams outside the traditional oilfield footprint.

04

Municipal Injection Wells

Injection facilities supporting municipal water management needs, engineered to the same standard as our oilfield work.

05

Geothermal Wells

Facility design and construction supporting geothermal injection applications.

Capabilities

Everything a facility needs, under one contract

Full EPC / Turnkey Facilities

Complete design-build scope from concept to commissioned, operating facility.

Storage Design, Fabrication & Installation

Tank and storage systems engineered and built to your site's volumes and conditions.

Site Layout Engineering

Facility layouts engineered around your lease, access, and future expansion.

Hydraulic Modelling & Forecasting

Site studies and modelling to size the system correctly the first time.

Gathering & Pipeline Systems

Produced water gathering lines and pipeline infrastructure connecting wellsite to facility.

Riser Stations

Riser station design and installation for gathering and injection systems.

Equipment Selection

Pumps, separators, and injection equipment specified for your service conditions.

Commissioning Support

Startup and commissioning support to bring the facility online correctly.

New builds and existing facilities — same team

We take on new construction from raw ground as readily as we take on refurbishing, upgrading, and optimizing a facility that's already in the ground and needs more out of it.

One Less Thing On Your Plate

Full permitting support, handled alongside the build

Getting an SWD facility from paper to operating isn't just an engineering problem — it's a regulatory one. EPCM Holdings supports our clients through the permitting process alongside the design and construction work, so the facility and the paperwork move together instead of one waiting on the other.

Texas-Based Crews, Oilfield-Tested Processes

Built by crews who work the Texas oil patch every day, running processes proven on real oilfield sites — not a generic template dropped onto a Texas lease.

Backed by ISO 9001, 14001 & 45001-aligned management systems.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a salt water disposal (SWD) facility?

A salt water disposal facility is the surface infrastructure — storage, pumps, gathering lines, and injection wellhead equipment — that safely receives and disposes of produced water from oil and gas operations, typically by injecting it into a permitted disposal well.

Who regulates SWD facilities in Texas?

SWD and injection wells in Texas fall under state and federal regulatory oversight specific to the oil and gas industry. EPCM supports clients through the applicable permitting and compliance process as part of the build.

Does EPCM handle permitting for SWD facilities?

Yes — EPCM provides permitting support alongside the design and construction work, so the facility and the regulatory process move together rather than one waiting on the other.

What types of injection wells does EPCM build facilities for?

EPCM builds and upgrades facilities for disposal wells, commercial disposal facilities, industrial injection wells, municipal injection wells, and geothermal wells.

Can EPCM upgrade or expand an existing SWD facility instead of building new?

Yes — EPCM takes on refurbishment, upgrade, and optimization work on existing facilities as readily as new turnkey construction, using the same team throughout.

Two Ways To Work With Us

New facility, or getting more out of an existing one

Option 1 — Full Turnkey EPC

New Facility

You've got a site and a need. We take it from concept through commissioned, operating facility — engineering, procurement, construction, and startup under one contract.

  • Site layout & hydraulic modelling
  • Storage, gathering & riser systems
  • Equipment selection & procurement
  • Construction & commissioning
  • Permitting support throughout
Option 2 — Refurbish & Optimize

Existing Facility

Your facility is already in the ground but not performing the way it should — or it's time to expand it. We assess, re-engineer, and rebuild what needs it.

  • Facility assessment & optimization studies
  • Storage, pump & equipment upgrades
  • Gathering system expansion
  • Capacity & throughput improvements
  • Recommissioning support
