Choosing a Specialized Land Services Company (Instead of One of the “Big Guys”)
Doing an online search for “land services” returns a seemingly endless number of companies, some of which are large organizations employing huge teams of land agents. So, why choose a specialized provider like Trigen Energy—instead of one of the “big guys”?
Here are four reasons to consider.
1. Specialized Approach
At Trigen Energy, we approach projects from a variety of angles. No two projects are exactly the same, which is why we go beyond the obvious on-the-ground factors that could impact success. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects, for example, require special sensitivity to political and geological considerations. After all, we’re talking about injecting carbon dioxide far below the earth’s surface. That’s hard for many people to comprehend, so education and communication are key. We recognize this, and we’re ready to help.
2. Geology Expertise
Speaking of geology, Trigen Energy is uniquely positioned among land companies thanks to our in-house geological expertise. Mark Henning, a member of Trigen Energy’s leadership team, holds multiple geological degrees and has extensive experience with onshore and offshore injection wells. We rely on this geological know-how to help clients achieve success above and below the earth’s surface.
3. Financial Stewardship
Trigen Energy isn’t focused on maximizing the number of land agents we can assign to projects. Rather, we work diligently to stay within clients’ budgets and advise them on prudent next steps. Being a good steward of clients’ money may reduce our work in the short-term. However, treating clients fairly forms healthy, long-term relationships that benefit both parties.
4. Local Knowledge
We’re headquartered in the Midwest, a part of the country that’s traditionally known for its agriculture, coal, and a decent amount of oil production. Increasingly, CCS developers are looking at the Midwest as a viable location for storing and transporting carbon dioxide. Engaging land experts with local knowledge is a smart way to plan for successful CCS projects.
Trigen Energy’s leaders have lived here in the Midwest for much of their lives. Leveraging this experience can prove invaluable when planning areas of interest, engaging landowners, acquiring land leases, and navigating political and publicity challenges.
