Capping and Remediation of Abandoned Wells
Eliminating Legacy Risk.

Eliminating Legacy Risk. Unlocking Future Value.
Across North America, millions of oil and gas wells have been left behind — improperly sealed, leaking methane, and threatening soil and groundwater. At Nexus Energy, we don’t see these wells as liabilities. We see them as an opportunity to fix the past while building the future.
Through our one-to-one model, every producing well we drill is matched by a legacy well we plug and restore. It’s our commitment to responsibility — and a smarter path to long-term profitability.
The Problem with Abandoned Wells
Over 3 million abandoned wells in the U.S.
Many are unsealed, emitting methane — a greenhouse gas 84x more potent than CO2
They contaminate groundwater, damage ecosystems, and endanger nearby communities
Legacy wells often have no operator of record — meaning no one is legally responsible for cleanup
Our Solution
At Nexus, we don’t wait for government programs or nonprofit funding. We integrate well remediation into our core business model.
Identify orphaned or abandoned wells near active development zones
Assess environmental risk, access, and plugging cost
Deploy crews to seal the well, reclaim the surface, and report completion
File for carbon offset credits, tax incentives, and regulatory acknowledgments
This strategy allows us to reduce emissions and environmental liabilities at scale — while qualifying for benefits that enhance project ROI

Remediation isn’t a side project — it’s core to how we operate. Whether we’re acquiring new assets, optimizing field production, or planning an exit strategy, plugging old wells is part of the blueprint. Our goal is simple: turn remediation from a cost into a catalyst. We work with four industries:
