In today’s complex energy landscape, midstream operators are under increasing pressure to deliver safe, efficient, and compliant projects—without sacrificing speed or cost-effectiveness. As a result, many are shifting away from fragmented vendor relationships and turning to fully integrated operations and maintenance (O&M) service providers.
This shift reflects a broader industry trend: aligning project execution with partners who can manage land, permitting, engineering, compliance, and documentation under one roof. Percheron, LLC is at the forefront of this transition, delivering integrated O&M solutions designed to help clients achieve more with fewer bottlenecks.
Why Fragmented O&M No Longer Works
Historically, midstream companies relied on multiple vendors to execute each stage of a project: one team for engineering, another for permitting, yet another for ROW access or landowner relations. While this approach may have worked in less complex regulatory environments, it often leads to:
- Communication gaps between teams
- Inconsistent documentation across workflows
- Delayed timelines due to misaligned scopes and rework
- Higher costs from duplicated efforts or inefficient handoffs
Today’s regulatory and environmental expectations demand tighter coordination—and that’s where integrated providers like Percheron offer a significant advantage.
The Benefits of Integrated O&M Services
Partnering with an integrated provider streamlines the O&M lifecycle, from planning to long-term asset management. Key advantages include:
- Risk Mitigation: When all stakeholders are working from the same playbook—using the same data and systems—compliance issues and errors are reduced.
- Timeline Efficiency: Integrated teams move faster. There’s no waiting for external approvals or re-explaining project goals from one vendor to the next.
- Cost Control: Centralizing services reduces redundant expenses and supports tighter budget adherence.
- Simplified Oversight: Project owners benefit from having a single point of contact managing the big picture and coordinating execution across functions.
What Integration Looks Like in Practice
At Percheron, integration is not just a buzzword—it’s built into how we operate. Our in-house teams provide:
- Land Services: From right-of-way acquisition to ongoing title and easement management.
- Engineering Support: Including constructability reviews, design evaluations, and technical coordination.
- Surveying: Leveraging drone and GIS technology to deliver fast, accurate field data.
- Environmental Compliance: Proactive permitting, mitigation planning, and monitoring throughout the O&M lifecycle.
- Project Documentation: Through GRID, our centralized system for secure, transparent recordkeeping.
By uniting these disciplines under one roof, Percheron accelerates project delivery, ensures consistent compliance, and reduces administrative burden for operators.
Meeting the Needs of Modern Midstream Operators
As midstream infrastructure ages and operators look to extend asset lifecycles, the need for efficient, compliant, and scalable O&M support has never been greater. Integrated service models are no longer a “nice-to-have”—they are a strategic necessity for staying competitive and mitigating risk in real time.
Percheron’s integrated approach has proven valuable across a wide range of projects, from traditional pipelines to hybrid carbon capture and hydrogen infrastructure. No matter the scale or complexity, our teams bring the alignment and agility today’s operators need.
The era of fragmented O&M execution is fading fast. Midstream operators now require partners who can deliver integrated, end-to-end support—from land and permitting to engineering and compliance. Percheron is leading that charge.
With our proven model, clients gain more than just efficiency—they gain clarity, accountability, and peace of mind across every phase of the project.
