About Us

At EverGreen Chemical Solutions, we are pioneers in eco-friendly chemical remediation, delivering innovative, water-based solutions that tackle hydrocarbon challenges across multiple industries. Founded by Mike Gibson, a seasoned chemist and Purdue University graduate with decades of experience in refineries and petrochemical plants—including roles at Nalco Chemical Company, Nalco/Exxon Energy Chemicals, and GE—our company was born from a simple yet revolutionary insight: water chemistry could transform how hydrocarbons are broken down and remediated in situ.

Mike’s journey began with observing traditional waste practices for hydrocarbons like slop oils, tank bottoms, and oily sludges, which relied on off-site disposal or mechanical separation. These methods were effective for removal but inefficient for true environmental recovery. Driven by a passion for sustainability, Mike developed EverGreen12—a proprietary blend of ethoxylated octylphenolic surfactants that emulsifies and encapsulates hydrocarbons, enabling natural biodegradation without enzymes, microbes, or harmful residues. This breakthrough not only accelerates cleanup but also minimizes risks, costs, and environmental impact.

In January 2026, Mike Gibson and EverGreen Chemical Solutions were honored by Energy Tech Review as the Top Oil and Gas Chemical Remediation Solution. The feature highlights our scalable model that converts hazardous drilling waste into non-hazardous material in weeks, reducing transport exposure, safety risks, and disposal expenses while achieving oil-on-cuttings levels of 1% or less.

Today, EverGreen Chemical Solutions serves a diverse range of sectors, from oil and gas refineries to marine operations and waste management facilities. Our products—safe, non-toxic, and fully miscible in water—offer versatility for applications like tank degassing, soil remediation, odor control, and hard surface cleaning. With a pH of 8.5 and a HazMat rating of all zeros, EverGreen12 requires minimal PPE, making it a game-changer for worker safety and operational efficiency.

We’re more than a chemical supplier—we’re partners in sustainability, committed to rethinking remediation for a cleaner tomorrow. Whether you’re dealing with an oil spill, refinery maintenance, or industrial cleanup, our team provides expert guidance, customized solutions, and proven results.
