Edmonton, Alberta — August 14, 2025 — FourQuest Energy Inc. (“FourQuest”) today announced it has reached a definitive agreement to sell its Alberta-based Nitrogen Services business to Air Liquide Canada Inc., a subsidiary of the Paris-headquartered global industrial-gases group Air Liquide.

FourQuest remains headquartered in Edmonton and continues to serve Canadian customers with our full suite of other services including tank cleaning, heat exchanger cleaning, chemical cleaning, steam and air blowing, oil flushing, and a comprehensive range of pipeline services.
