Frac Pond Construction
Lined frac ponds and water storage built for completions across South Texas and the Permian Basin
Frac Ponds & Water Storage Built Right
Reliable water storage keeps a completions program on schedule. GTO Construction builds frac ponds and water pits for oil & gas operators across South Texas — excavation, compacted berms, liner installation, and reclamation when the job is done.
We size each pond to your program, build to operator and regulatory standards, and mobilize quickly so storage is ready when your frac crew arrives. Containment is built in from the start to help protect groundwater and keep you compliant.
Frac ponds are part of our civil & earthworks division, alongside drill pad construction and access roads across the Permian Basin and Eagle Ford.

Frac Pond Construction FAQ
Do you build lined frac ponds?+
Yes. We construct frac ponds with liner installation for containment, which helps protect groundwater and supports compliance with state and operator requirements. We can also build unlined pits where that is appropriate for the project.
How is frac pond capacity determined?+
Capacity is driven by your completions program and water-management plan. We coordinate with your engineers on dimensions and build the pond to the volume your operation requires.
Can you handle permitting and reclamation?+
We build to TCEQ and Railroad Commission expectations and work with you on the earthwork and reclamation scope. Final permitting responsibility usually rests with the operator, and we support that process with compliant construction and closure.
What areas do you serve?+
We build frac ponds throughout the Eagle Ford Shale, the Permian Basin, and South Texas from our base in Three Rivers, TX.
