Backwoods Energy Services is 70% owned by the Alexis Nakota Sioux nation (“ANSN”) and 30% owned by Steel River Group. Since the acquisition in 2015, Backwoods has grown to be the largest community-owned Indigenous company in Northwest Alberta.
Steel River Solutions and Backwoods Energy Services have worked collaboratively on major initiatives to achieve clear and distinctive goals for their stakeholders. To ensure that Backwoods can continue to positively impact the ANSN community and advance business, Steel River Solutions and Backwoods entered a Strategic Alliance to execute major integrity dig programs.
The Strategic Alliance between Steel River Solutions and Backwoods is an advanced solution that not only meets the needs of all stakeholders, but as importantly does so in a fashion that is efficient, well-organized, and easily managed.
