What Procesos y Soluciones Ambientales does

Procesos y Soluciones Ambientales S.A.S (PSA SAS) is a privately held Colombian environmental and industrial services company founded around 2010 and headquartered in Bogotá. The company designs, sells, and rents specialized equipment — primarily high-vacuum pumps under its proprietary SUPAVAC brand (SV60 through SV1000 models) — and delivers environmental remediation services to enterprise clients in the hydrocarbon, mining, civil construction, and agricultural sectors. Its technical portfolio also includes ATEX-certified explosion-proof extractors, NIOSH-compliant compressed-air filtration systems, multi-gas detectors, self-contained breathing apparatus, and an extensive civil-construction equipment rental fleet (compressors from Ingersoll Rand, Sullair, Doosan, Airman, and Kaeser; submersible and motor pumps; concrete vibrators, compactors, and demolition hammers).

PSA's biological treatment offering is built around its proprietary MCT bacteria series (MCT 250, 350, 360, 500, 504, 560), formulated for site-specific bioremediation of hydrocarbon-contaminated water and soil, septic systems, grease traps, dairy effluent, wine and fruit industry waste, and aquaculture ponds. The bacteria are supplied in water-soluble packaging. Service lines include tank and vessel cleaning, bioremediation of OBM/WBM drilling cuttings and tank-bottom sludges, oily-waste treatment, sediment fluidization (CIP strategies), pipe and tank repair, and temporary hydrocarbon storage — all tied to compliance with Colombian Resolutions 0491/2020 (confined spaces) and 4272/2021 (work at heights).

The business operates a hybrid revenue model: (1) recurring rental income from industrial equipment deployed nationwide across Colombia, (2) one-time equipment sales (including PPE such as N95/KN95 respirators), (3) professional environmental services delivered on-site, and (4) sales of MCT biological treatment products. Distribution is direct — field sales, the psasas.com e-commerce storefront, WhatsApp inquiry, and CRM lead forms — targeting enterprise and mid-market industrial buyers. Named enterprise customers include Hocol, Parex, Cabot, Omia, Stork, GranTierra, Confipetrol, and Palermo Tanks. The company appears to be founder-owned and bootstrapped with no disclosed external equity.

Core offering

PSA SAS designs, sells, and rents industrial equipment — principally high-vacuum SUPAVAC pumps, air compressors, generators, confined space safety equipment, and civil construction machinery — and delivers specialized environmental services including tank and vessel cleaning, bioremediation of hydrocarbon-contaminated water and soils, and oily waste treatment. The company also distributes proprietary MCT-series biological bacteria products for site-specific waste remediation across hydrocarbon, septic, dairy, wine/fruit, aquaculture, and grease trap applications. Customers are enterprise and mid-market industrial operators in Colombia's hydrocarbon, mining, construction, and agricultural sectors.

Product overview

PSA SAS operates as an environmental solutions company offering equipment rental and specialized services primarily serving Colombia's hydrocarbon, industrial, and civil construction sectors. The product portfolio is organized into five interconnected categories: (1) Equipment rental including vacuum pumps (SUPAVAC SV series), compressors (185-375 CFM from Ingersoll Rand, Sullair, Doosan, Airman, Kaeser), generators, motor pumps, submersible pumps, confined space equipment (multi-gas detectors, escape apparatus, self-contained breathing apparatus, rescue tripods), and civil construction equipment (concrete vibrators, floor smoothers, compactors, demolition hammers, high-pressure washers); (2) Personal protective equipment including N95/KN95 respirators and protective masks; (3) Bioremediation products using proprietary bacteria strains (MCT 250, 350, 360, 500, 504, 560) for hydrocarbon waste, septic systems, dairy waste, wine/fruit industry waste, aquaculture waste, and grease traps; (4) Professional services including tank/vessel cleaning, bioremediation of contaminated waters/soils, oily waste treatment, sediment fluidization, pipe/tank repair, and hydrocarbon storage; and (5) Agricultural machinery rental. The offering integrates equipment, biological treatments, and specialized services to provide comprehensive environmental and industrial solutions.

Partnerships

One partnership is on record.

• SAS EnvironmentalcoreStrategic or Co-development PartnerPSA SAS operates jointly with SAS Environmental on bioremediation technologies. Together they develop and apply advanced treatment techniques for oily sludges including microemulsions and biological treatments. This partnership enables PSA to offer cutting-edge solutions for hydrocarbon waste that would normally go to final disposal, contributing to carbon footprint reduction.

Scale indicators3 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• SLB (Schlumberger): Largest global oilfield services provider with production, drilling, and environmental/waste-management capabilities that compete with PSA at the tier-1 operator level in Colombia.
• Veolia: Global environmental services group with hazardous-waste, industrial cleaning, water treatment, and bioremediation divisions — a relevant scaled comparator for PSA's environmental services and biological treatment portfolio.
• Ecolab: Global leader in water, hygiene, and industrial cleaning technologies, including oil and gas process chemicals and bioremediation products — comparable to PSA's MCT biological treatment line and high-pressure washers.
• Weatherford International: Global oilfield services and equipment provider serving upstream and midstream operators in Latin America with production equipment and intervention services that overlap PSA's hydrocarbon focus.
• Baker Hughes: Major oilfield equipment and services company with environmental and industrial cleaning capabilities relevant to PSA's tank cleaning, confined space, and hydrocarbon waste treatment segments.
• Halliburton: Global oilfield services giant offering drilling, production, and environmental solutions; competes for the same Colombian E&P customers (Hocol/Ecopetrol, Parex, GranTierra) as PSA at the high end of tank cleaning, wellsite services, and bioremediation.

Direct peers

• Patriot Environmental Services: U.S.-based provider of industrial vacuum, hydro-excavation, tank cleaning, and emergency response services — a close analog to PSA's vacuum pump rental, tank cleaning, and confined-space service offering.
• Clean Harbors: North America's leading provider of environmental and industrial services, including oilfield waste treatment, tank cleaning, vacuum truck services, and bioremediation — directly overlapping with PSA's hydrocarbon environmental services and equipment-rental offering.
• Newpark Resources: Provides oilfield fluids, environmental services, and industrial equipment rentals to upstream operators, including solids-handling and waste-management solutions comparable to PSA's SUPAVAC vacuum pump and oily-waste treatment services.

Emerging players

• Tetra Tech: Engineering and consulting firm with strong water, environment, and sustainable infrastructure practices serving oil and gas clients — comparable to PSA in providing bioremediation and environmental solutions to hydrocarbon operators, though with a consulting-led model.
