Water Standard, a leader in water treatment solutions for the oil and gas and industrial sector, has announced that it has acquired the business of Monarch Separators, a Houston, Texas-based supplier of industrial produced water and oil separation equipment, with a long and successful history of delivering differentiated equipment into the upstream and downstream oil and gas industry, globally.
Amanda Brock, CEO of Water Standard, said, "This exciting acquisition complements our product lines and enhances our technology portfolio. With the separation capabilities of Monarch, we are now a full service water treatment solution provider delivering injection water, high purity water, produced water and industrial wastewater treatment to our customers. This confirms Water Standard's position as a highly sought after provider of robust, integrated technologies that are responsive to our customers changing needs."
The synergies between the two companies, combined with the advantages of vertical integration, enable the Water Standard Group to quickly deliver innovative, competitively priced treatment solutions, from small, skid-mounted assemblies and mobile equipment, to larger integrated packages and modules.
Kirk Wagner, President of Monarch Separators added, "We are thrilled be a part of the Water Standard Group. This acquisition will support our mission to provide comprehensive produced water treatment solutions, including system integration, analysis, and support services, which is missing in the industry today.
