Since 2001, Gwich’in Ensign Oilfield Services Inc (GEOS) has offered oilfield contractor services to exploration companies prospecting in the Mackenzie Delta. As oil and gas prospecting expands and new parcels of land are leased in the Gwich’in Settlement Area, this joint venture will continue to create employment and business opportunities for Gwich’in beneficiaries who have a direct interest in the local projects at hand.
