The Texas Midland District office awarded an emergency contract to Advantage Business Capital Inc for addressing a critical well leakage incident in Midland County. The contract involves emergency environmental remediation services for an unidentified well actively leaking produced water to the surface, with a contaminated area spanning approximately 600 feet by 800 feet. The site presents hazardous conditions, including the presence of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and high chloride levels at 41,482 parts per million, necessitating immediate fluid containment, hauling, and excavation to locate and address the source of the leak.

The contract, awarded on January 15, 2026, encompasses multiple specialized service categories including water and gas control services, subsea well services, well testing services, and related petrochemical support. Classified under NIGP Code 96296 for Well Services, the project involves comprehensive technical interventions to mitigate environmental risks and stabilize the compromised well site. While specific contract financial details are not fully disclosed, the award was determined based on vendor responsiveness and best value considerations for the State of Texas, with the prime contractor selected from a pool of three potential service providers.
