Oilfield Technology,
Jesse Curlett, VP of Operations at Horizon Oilfield Solutions Inc. (HOS), left the company's Calgary offices on Saturday, 7 May, and headed up to Fort McMurray. With trucks, CleanTek™ Solar-Hybrid Light Towers and emergency supplies, he and a small crew are ready to provide help and assistance wherever needed.
The HOS team has provided CleanTek™ Solar-Hybrid Light Towers to a fueling station, set up by the Government of Alberta. These stations were providing free fuel for everyone heading South of Fort McMurray. This area did not have grid power so the CleanTek™ Solar-Hybrid Light Towers were powering the command center and providing light.
During the evening of May 8, the HOS crew was also working with the local municipality to distribute drinking water along Highway 63.
Additionally, HOS has provided the RCMP with CleanTek™ Solar-Hybrid Light Towers to use as their main light source at different road blocks they’ve set up along Highway 63.
