Pipeline end-of-life work demands precision, compliance, and environmental care. Western Edge Contracting provides full-service support for pipeline decommissioning and abandonment in accordance with AER requirements, including safe exposure, isolation, removal of associated earthworks, and proper backfill to restore long-term ground stability. Our crews are experienced in working around active corridors, legacy infrastructure, and environmentally sensitive locations.
We handle everything from exposing and cutting out retired sections, to removing pipe, stabilizing trenches, regrading, and final reclamation to meet the standards of AER Directive 077 and Directive 088. Whether it’s a short section of line on private land or a multi-location abandonment program, Western Edge combines safety, accuracy, and environmental responsibility to return the land to its intended use.
