Customer Testimonial
" We have used EPDC for several projects, drilling industrial wells, conduct clean out and conditioning on existing WSW’s, as well as service jobs and testing. The knowledge base of the crews, the condition of equipment, work ethic, environmental concern and high regard to safety is, to say the least, Top Notch! I have and will continue to recommend EPDC to others and look forward to continued use of EPDC here at PennWest in the future! "
