LITTLETON, Colo. - ColoradoDesk -- Evergreen Surety has launched a new oil and gas surety bonds page that shows how the agency places bonds for upstream operators, pipeline contractors, oilfield service companies, and midstream processors. Evergreen places these programs across the United States as an independent agency with direct access to the carriers that underwrite these risks.

The page also explains why oil and gas operators work with Evergreen Surety. The agency does surety only, so energy bond programs never sit behind commercial lines accounts or insurance products.

It knows the state conservation commissions it deals with regularly, including the Texas Railroad Commission, COGCC, WOGCC, NMOCD, and NDIC. As part of its energy and commodities practice, it holds carrier relationships built specifically for complex energy programs, and it's appointed with 15 carriers, so when one declines there are real alternatives. It also coordinates with operators' bankers, CPAs, and attorneys, which oil and gas financing and bond form review usually require.
