ECOTEC provides a comprehensive ecosystem of methane solutions for its customers, helping them identify, quantify and manage their emissions. The combination of cutting-edge instrumentation and software provides accurate and directly measured emissions data, which is auditable by third-party organizations. ECOTEC has more than thirty years of expertise in the natural gas, biogas, carbon credits and air quality industries and Archrock’s investment is expected to be used to accelerate ECOTEC’s recent expansion into the oil and gas industry.

“We are excited to partner with ECOTEC and advance our shared vision for helping the oil and gas industry decarbonize,” said Brad Childers, Archrock’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “The expansion of our services to include direct emissions detection, management and mitigation is a significant step in our strategy to develop a suite of solutions that supports our customers’ sustainability goals. ECOTEC’s management team has an impressive track record of building emissions management businesses in other sectors and this partnership connects their proven technology with our leading U.S. natural gas compression infrastructure and customer network. This investment provides a unique opportunity to deliver value for our customers and shareholders as we position Archrock to reduce emissions across the oil and gas industry.”

Tim Novick, President and Chief Executive Officer of ECOTEC, said, “We are thrilled to partner with Archrock as an increasing number of oil and gas companies commit to thoughtful ESG strategies to measure and reduce their methane emissions. In particular, methane leak mitigation will be critical in solidifying the important role natural gas will play in energy transition. With over 67 years of operating history, Archrock’s deep industry understanding and long-standing customer relationships will be fundamental to accelerating ECOTEC’s growth in oil and gas and creating value for ECOTEC and its stakeholders.”
