Description

Company Overview

Alkane is a comprehensive fully integrated gas solutions business, taking the gas molecule from well to market via our virtual midstream assets, without the need for third parties. No third-party trucking companies. No contractors. 100% accountability.

Our primary focus is displacing diesel and propane for power generation, drilling rigs, and completions crews. Since 2014, we have safely delivered over 63 million gallons of LNG and over 160 million kWh of natural gas power resulting in significant savings and emissions reductions for our customers. Additionally, if stranded gas is sent to flare or curtailing production, we can help customers monetize the gas through local integration.

Our customers require rapid responses to challenges, events, and opportunities. To meet this objective, Alkane operates with a TEAM approach. We hire teammates who focus on what’s best for the team, rather than being the best on the team. If you thrive in team environments, we encourage you to apply.
