 as winter storms, fires, earthquakes and flooding and other natural disasters;

U.S. and non-U.S. governmental regulations and energy policy, including environmental initiatives and taxation;

changes in global and domestic political and economic conditions, both generally and in the specific markets in which we operate, including the impact related to changing U.S. and foreign trade policies, such as increased trade restrictions or tariffs;

the effects of litigation;

physical, electronic and cybersecurity breaches;

the proximity, cost, availability and capacity of oil and natural gas pipelines and other transportation infrastructure;

technological advances affecting energy consumption, energy storage and energy supply;

the price and availability of alternative fuels and any efforts to transition to a low-carbon economy; and

the impact of energy conservation efforts.

These factors have at times resulted in, and may in the future result in, a reduction in global economic activity and volatility in the global financial markets and make it extremely difficult to predict future oil and natural gas price movements with certainty. A sustained decline in oil and natural gas prices may reduce the amount of oil and natural gas that can be produced economically by producers in our areas of operation, which may reduce such producers’ willingness to use our water management solutions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. Producers in our areas of operation could also determine during periods of low oil and natural gas prices to shut-in or curtail production from wells, or plug and abandon marginal wells that otherwise may have been allowed to continue to produce for a longer period under conditions of higher prices. The scale and duration of the impact of these factors cannot be predicted but could lead to an increase in our customers’ operating costs or a decrease in our or our customers’ revenues, and any substantial decline in the price of oil and natural gas or prolonged period of low oil and natural gas prices may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

Our business is largely dependent on the willingness of E&P companies to outsource their water management requirements generally, and to us, specifically. Many E&P companies have developed their own proprietary water infrastructure systems, including pipelines and water treatment and handling facilities, designed to manage their produced water needs. In addition, we compete with numerous third-party water management companies with existing water infrastructure to provide produced water management to E&P companies. E&P companies, including
