Wastewater management for complex industrial operations

SUEZ switches over 200 sites to Castle Water for expert wastewater and trade effluent support

SUEZ recycling and recovery UK, a major player in sustainable waste and resource management, partnered with Castle Water to consolidate its business water and wastewater services across more than 200 UK sites.

While SUEZ operates across a range of sectors, including industrial and infrastructure, its high-volume water use and wastewater discharge patterns presented challenges familiar to the oil and gas sector –  from trade effluent compliance to data integrity and billing accuracy across a large estate.

Water regulation & compliance in oil and gas

Compliance with UK water regulations is essential for oil and gas operators. Every activity – from water abstraction to wastewater discharge – is governed by environmental legislation enforced by the Environment Agency (England), SEPA (Scotland), and Natural Resources Wales.

Key legal obligations include securing abstraction licences, managing trade effluent discharges, and adhering to the Environmental Permitting Regulations and the Industrial Emissions Directive. Failing to meet these requirements can result in significant penalties, including fines and operational disruption.

Regulatory compliance isn’t just about obtaining permits; it demands continuous monitoring, reporting, and proactive management of water use and wastewater. This is particularly critical for oil and gas operations, where volumes and contamination risks are high.

Castle Water provides expert support to ensure full compliance. Our services include data reporting, trade effluent guidance, emergency response planning, and direct engagement with regulators. As a trusted business water supplier, we help operators reduce risk, avoid penalties, and meet environmental responsibilities with confidence.

From schools to multi-campus universities, managing water in education settings takes more than a basic supply. Castle Water provides tailored services that help you cut waste, improve efficiency, and stay in control of costs – with the tools and support needed to keep your site running smoothly.
