Environmental
We are committed to a sustainable future, and the care and protection of the environment. We use fewer people and less equipment to get the job done, and our technology is designed to recover depleting assets, reducing the need for further exploration. The small footprint of our BLUESPARK® tool uses minimal amounts of electrical energy versus traditional methods that involve chemicals, explosives, or other harmful practices. By choosing our technology, our customers reduce their environmental impact while achieving their production goals and extending the longevity of their assets.
Social
Our low-risk technology and service is designed to exceed global industry Health & Safety best practices, as evidenced by our awards, audits, and certifications. Just like we’ve created our technology, we believe that with the right energy, even a small team can have a big impact on the communities where we live and work. Our team values the opportunity to make a difference in meaningful ways through volunteer hours and funding to local organizations. We partner with local providers to benefit their community, and we focus on shared values when choosing employees and partners to make this happen.
Governance
We choose to do the right thing, which means we always follow laws and regulations to the highest possible standards. We expect transparency with our partners, customers, and employees, and in return, we offer transparency in all aspects of our business — from accurate financials to ethical business practices, to our diverse workforce.
“When we talk about the concept of energy transition, the aim isn’t to transition away from energy. We need more energy than ever. We will not be able to achieve the goal of energy expansion — better energy security, accessibility, and affordability — without continued innovation.”
— MARCI HAMILTON, CEO

HOW IT ALL BEGAN —
A spark of ingenuity.
Blue Spark Energy grew from the concept that, if easily packaged and cost-effective, high-pulsed power has the potential to eliminate the need for chemicals, explosives, people power, and heavy equipment during wellbore interventions. Even more, this simple solution can be delivered using an incredibly small amount of energy by compacting it into a shorter span of time — microseconds.
Blue Spark Energy’s first shareholders resonated with its environmental benefits. Even in 2011, there was growing pressure and incentive to create a more sustainable industry. This led to us developing the BLUESPARK® technology. Our goal was to improve and extend well performance at a reasonable cost and with reduced impact on the environment. Additionally, we designed BLUESPARK® to be deployed as a rigless solution by Wireline, Tractor, E-Coil or E-Slickline for ease of conveyance, expanding Blue Spark Energy’s reach to any wellsite in the world.
Armed with baling wire and duct tape, Blue Spark Energy took on its first project: an oil well in Canada that had never produced oil. The operator granted Blue Spark Energy the afternoon to test BLUESPARK® in the production zone. Assuming it wouldn’t work, no provisions were made to collect the oil — so when the well suddenly began producing oil, everyone was both surprised and very pleased.
In 2013, Blue Spark Energy was introduced to a Norwegian operator that was about to shut down an offshore well in the North Sea and agreed to try Blue Spark Energy’s technology as a final option. BLUESPARK® had never been used on a horizontal well or an offshore well, so it had to be rapidly reconfigured for the conditions. Over 24 hours, BLUESPARK® cleared the debris, and the well was able to remain online, producing another 20,000 barrels of oil over the next few months.
To date, Blue Spark Energy has produced quantifiable improvements for 700 projects spanning more than 50 companies worldwide. Our technology has limitless possibilities and is simple, efficient, safe, and excels in remote, hard-to-reach locations.
An innovative company at heart, we’re proud to play a part in building a new energy future.
