Experience that follows the project from route to reality
Oil and gas infrastructure can extend across hundreds of miles, multiple jurisdictions, private properties, waterways, sensitive habitats, and communities. Moving these projects forward requires teams that can work efficiently in the field while understanding the environmental, regulatory, and stakeholder considerations surrounding the work.
Hollaway has supported major oil and gas infrastructure projects across Texas, the Gulf Coast, and beyond, including pipelines, transmission infrastructure, export facilities, and other midstream and maritime energy projects.
Our environmental professionals help clients evaluate routes and sites, conduct large-scale field surveys, identify environmental constraints, navigate state and federal permitting and environmental review, and support compliance as projects advance.
Our communications team adds another important perspective—helping project teams communicate with landowners, agencies, stakeholders, and communities along the way.
Our Capabilities
Environmental Planning + NEPA
We help oil and gas teams evaluate routes and sites, identify environmental considerations early, and develop clear, defensible documentation to support project development, environmental review, and decision-making.
- Route and site environmental constraints studies
- Environmental due diligence
- NEPA documentation (Categorical Exclusions, Environmental Assessments, and Environmental Impact Statements)
- Section 106 and cultural resources coordination
- Socioeconomic and community impact analyses
- Hazardous materials initial site assessments (Phase I ESAs)
- GIS and environmental data analysis
- State and federal agency coordination
Natural + Water Resources
Our scientists help project teams understand existing conditions, identify sensitive resources, and navigate the state and federal environmental requirements that can influence routing, siting, permitting, and construction.
- Wetland and stream delineations
- Clean Water Act Section 404 and Section 10 permitting support
- Protected species surveys
- Migratory bird, eagle, and freshwater mussel surveys
- Habitat assessments
- Mitigation planning and coordination
- State and federal agency coordination
- Field investigations and technical documentation
Public Involvement + Stakeholder Engagement
Oil and gas infrastructure can cross private property, communities, jurisdictions, and sensitive areas across large geographic footprints. We help project teams communicate clearly, understand concerns early, and coordinate with the people and organizations affected along the way.
- Public involvement, communications, and engagement strategies
- Stakeholder identification
- Landowner and community outreach
- Agency and regulatory stakeholder coordination
- Public meetings and hearings
- Elected official and agency briefings
- Multilingual community engagement
- Public comment management and documentation
- Issues, crisis, and opposition communications
Creative + Digital Communications
Large, linear, and highly technical projects can be difficult to explain. Our creative team turns routes, site plans, alternatives, technical information, and project details into clear visual communications that help stakeholders understand what is proposed and how it may affect them.
- Project websites and digital engagement platforms
- Interactive mapping and informational presentations
- Project videos and animations
- Drone photography and construction progress documentation
- Public meeting and hearing exhibits
- Infographics, fact sheets, project collateral, and educational materials
- Route, site, and project visualization
Construction Environmental Compliance + Management
Our environmental support continues beyond planning and permitting, helping oil and gas teams maintain compliance as projects move into construction.
- Pre-construction environmental surveys
- Environmental inspection and monitoring
- Permit compliance support
- Protected species and habitat monitoring
- Construction-phase environmental documentation
- Agency coordination and compliance support
Built for Work Across Large Footprints
Linear infrastructure creates a particular kind of challenge.
A route that works in one location may encounter entirely different environmental resources, landowners, permitting needs, or community concerns a few miles down the road. Multiply that across hundreds of miles and successful delivery depends on both careful planning and disciplined execution in the field.
Hollaway understands that work.
Our teams have mobilized environmental specialists across large project areas, coordinated property access and field logistics, conducted wetland and waterway delineations and protected species surveys, supported routing and permitting decisions, and prepared documentation for state and federal environmental review.
We also understand the importance of seeing beyond individual survey points or permit requirements. The environmental work, regulatory process, landowner relationships, project schedule, and communications strategy all affect one another.
Knowing how those pieces connect helps us anticipate what may be ahead and keep the work moving.
