Permitting Support

Permitting

Permitting

Navigating the complexities of well permitting requires a deep understanding of federal, state, and local regulations. IPT Well Solutions brings decades of experience to the table, ensuring your project moves forward efficiently and in full compliance. Whether you’re developing disposal wells, injection wells, or industrial storage solutions, our permitting experts handle every aspect—from regulatory applications to agency negotiations—so you can stay focused on operations.

We provide permitting support for Class I, II, III, and V wells, tailoring our approach to your specific well type and regulatory environment.

 

Class I Wells – Industrial and Hazardous Waste Disposal

Class I wells are used for the underground injection of industrial and municipal waste, including hazardous and non-hazardous fluids. Given the stringent environmental and regulatory requirements, obtaining a permit for a Class I well demands a comprehensive approach. IPT Well Solutions manages the full permitting process, from site characterization and geologic assessments to regulatory submission and compliance monitoring. Our expertise ensures that your well design meets EPA and state-specific regulations, mitigating risks and securing long-term operational approval.

 

Class II Wells – Oil and Gas Injection and Disposal

Class II wells are critical to the oil and gas industry, used for enhanced recovery, produced water disposal, and hydrocarbon storage. Regulatory oversight varies by state, making permitting a complex process. IPT Well Solutions streamlines the application process, ensuring compliance with Underground Injection Control (UIC) programs while optimizing well design for efficiency and longevity. Whether you need a permit for a waterflood project, a saltwater disposal well, or underground storage, we work closely with regulatory agencies to get your well approved and operational.

 

Class III Wells – Solution Mining and Brine Extraction

Permitting for Class III wells—used in solution mining for minerals such as salt, potash, and uranium—requires detailed hydrogeologic evaluations and environmental impact assessments. These wells are subject to rigorous oversight to prevent contamination of underground sources of drinking water (USDWs). IPT Well Solutions provides end-to-end permitting support, ensuring compliance with UIC regulations while optimizing your project’s economic and operational potential. From initial feasibility studies to securing final approvals, our team keeps your solution mining project on track.

 

Class V Wells – Industrial and Stormwater Injection

Class V wells encompass a broad range of injection activities, including stormwater drainage, industrial process water disposal, organic matter or biosolids, and geothermal reinjection. While many Class V wells operate under rule authorization, some require individual permits due to their potential impact on groundwater. IPT Well Solutions helps operators determine regulatory requirements, prepare permit applications, and implement best practices for compliance. Our team ensures that your Class V well meets all necessary environmental and operational standards, minimizing risk while maximizing efficiency.

SPEAK WITH AN EXPERT
Their mindset mirrored ours as an operator: Cost conscious, vendor intelligence, oversight, relevant and up to speed.
Adam Gollofon, Massif Oil
“They've made a huge difference for us. I work with people of significant capability that I know. I can count on IPT’s people, and working with them limits the amount of overhead expense when there isn't much work.”
Roger Parker, Petro Operating
“IPT has a group of folks that really know their stuff. From wellsite supervision to stimulation specialist, they’ve always had us covered. As an operator we sleep better at night with one of their stim specialists on location knowing they’ll keep the service provider on scope and can provide guidance when things get off track.”
Tanner Butler, White Rock
“IPT provides some of the best frac supervision available and with that supervision has come invaluable recommendations that have continued to optimize our frac designs.”
R. Holt, CPX Energy
“We use IPT on horizontal completions – dedicated people making sure the job goes as we designed it. They keep us on schedule and communicate if something looks off. IPT’s biggest value add is data collection and reporting. They take a lot of data and very quickly put it into a format that’s easy to digest. IPT does more for the same money as other consultants, which frees us up to focus our attention elsewhere.”
Andrew Blaine, Blackbeard Operating
“I’ve been using IPT since 1997. Having you guys on location takes the QC burden off of me. I can depend on IPT to oversee engineering, materials, and the frac company. What makes IPT different is consistency. Your engineers have individual personalities, but I can count on the same basic approach. You know what you're getting.”
Kevin Duncan, U.S. Energy Development Corporation
“IPT has been an integral part of our completions team throughout the history of our company, making sure the field execution meets our stimulation objectives, and providing engineering guidance for both completions and drilling. We have also relied on IPT for an increasing range of consulting services. Having trusted advisors like IPT is critical to the success of our projects.”
Pat Laursen, Forge Energy Operating
“What I’d tell another company that hasn’t used IPT is they have consistency among their employees, integrity, and a lot of frac knowledge. They keep a database, so they can quickly pull up how any of our wells were treated. I’ve been lucky they have always been available when I need them. IPT adds much more value than what the cost is.”
James Allbee, Cheyenne Petroleum
“What I really like about the IPT personnel is their ability to work with and in the complex completion software — while at the same time teaming up with the frac company on location to provide assistance to any specific area of need which assures successful stage executions. Put more simply, they can run FracPro or run hoses, and everything in between.”
Paul Fagin, Valence Operating Company Engineering
