Greene’s Energy Group (GEG), has acquired the assets of Houston, Texas, and Magnolia Springs, Ala., based Synergy Services from owner Mark Mattox, announced Greene’s Energy Group CEO Bob Vilyus.

The acquisition will broaden the offerings of GEG’s Pipeline Division and many of its drilling and production base locations. Greene’s Synergy Services will offer chemical cleaning – including patented chemistry and processes; large volume product separation units; mechanical cleaning equipment; and other support equipment for cleaning various types of pipe, vessels and facilities. The business will report to Vice President Pipeline and International Business, Tom Sawyer. 

“We are elated that the opportunity arose to purchase such a well-respected chemical cleaning and service company that offers patented “green” custom chemical solutions,” said Sawyer. “Adding this in-house capability fits well within our Pipeline Division and follows the strategic growth plan outlined for the division and other GEG upstream and downstream businesses.”

Oil & gas producers, pipeline operators and refineries are the beneficiaries of these patented chemicals and cleaning processes by means of improved through-put of product in pipelines, enhanced performance of refineries and increased efficiency of injection and production at the well site. 

“This is a great business with excellent products that the industry needs. Synergy will customize a solution based on analysis of the problem using proven combinations of chemicals (patented and otherwise) and tailoring the solution to maximize the results,” said Vilyus. “Ultimately, the customer will benefit with better process and asset efficiency, hence lowering operating costs and increasing revenues.”

“We are excited with the opportunities that exist within Greene’s Energy Group’s extended service lines and numerous operational locations”, says owner Mark Mattox. “We have a respected and successful history and are proud to be a part of a legacy like Greene’s.”
