About Us

The founders of Nitro-Lift® Technologies, L.L.C. were the first to apply membrane type nitrogen generation technology in an enhanced oil recovery application. Their first commercial venture resulted in the economical supply of make-up gas in stripper wells on the Gulf Coast of Texas. Since then, Nitro-Lift has developed the first hydraulically driven nitrogen generator and the world’s smallest generation unit. The company was the first to perform the “around the end of the tubing” jetting process with this technology.

Since then, the company has successfully de-watered more than 1000 wells in the Barnett, Woodford and Fayetteville shale plays. Nitro-Lift® recently completed the deepest de-watering project ever with non-cryogenic nitrogen on a well in Oklahoma that is over 14,000 feet deep.

We have accomplished this goal faster and more efficiently than other processes available on the market today.

Nitro-Lift® Technologies, LLC was founded by a group of outstanding individuals that came to share a common vision of a technology that could mark a steep-change in enhancing production in the oil and gas industry. Borne out of a need to increase production on properties held by them at the time, Vernon and Danny Daniels began designing, building and testing non-cryogenic nitrogen generation technology. Their vast knowledge of oil and gas well design and mechanics led to the development of the processes now used by Nitro-Lift®. An ancillary application in the coiled tubing business led them to team together with Rusty Lamb, a prominent businessman and founder of a number of oilfield companies. This group is now building a team that will bring about the evolution of a technology that will make a significant contribution to the industry.
