DENVER--()--Gradiant Energy Services (GES), a provider of integrated water management solutions to the energy industry, announced today that it has secured a capital investment from Turnbridge Capital, LLC (“TCP”). The growth capital will help fund GES’ execution of new contracts and expansion into multiple basins around the United States.

“Finding the right financial and strategic partner was critical. GES was extremely focused on funding our growth plans with a firm that shared GES’ values of quality, safety and leading the industry in technological innovation with the highest level of service. Turnbridge absolutely shares these values,” said Danny Jimenez, CEO of GES. “I have been fortunate to see the Turnbridge team in action, there is no doubt GES will benefit from their vast strategic experience. With the proper capital support in place, we are ready to execute on our mission – providing an integrated solution for water management in all major domestic basins.”
