Reserve Pit Closure

Since 2010, Shoreline Services has been a cornerstone of South Texas oilfield solutions, and our reserve pit closure services exemplify our commitment to excellence. With over a decade of experience, we specialize in safely and efficiently closing reserve pits, ensuring your site meets environmental standards and operational goals. Our skilled team handles every step with care, turning a complex process into a seamless solution. Trust Shoreline to close your pits responsibly, protecting your land and your legacy.

Why Reserve Pit Closure Matters

Reserve pits are essential during drilling, holding fluids and cuttings—but when the job’s done, they can’t just be left behind. Improper closure risks contamination, regulatory fines, and long-term liability. A well-executed closure restores the land, prevents environmental harm, and ensures compliance with local and federal rules. At Shoreline Services, we don’t just fill in pits—we reclaim your site with a process that’s thorough, safe, and built to last.

Our Reserve Pit Closure Services

We offer a full suite of closure solutions, tailored to the unique needs of your oilfield. Here’s how we get it done:

Site Assessment

We evaluate pit size, contents, and soil conditions to plan a closure that fits your site perfectly.

Fluid Removal & Disposal

Safe extraction and disposal of liquids, adhering to strict environmental guidelines.

Backfilling & Compaction

We refill the pit with suitable materials, compacting it to prevent settling or erosion.

Reclamation & Restoration

Topsoil application and grading to return the land to its natural state or prepare it for future use.
