Streamline Mechanical started work on the Long Lake Project in 2005 installing sewer, water and gas lines as a subcontractor to ATCO Structures Ltd.. At that time, our project workforce comprised 8 workers, including; operators, labourers and plumber/gasfitters. As the project scope expanded and demands for maintenance services increased, Streamline was successful in obtaining a direct contract with Nexen Inc. (Nexen) Site Wide Shared Services (SWSS) to perform general site maintenance. During this time we worked with several other contractor companies on-site and successfully completed several projects for Nexen and OPTI Canada Inc. (OPTI). In May 2008, Streamline peaked at a workforce on-Site of 75 employees. Our contract ended in the spring of 2010.
