The Problem

Long-Term Liabilities Need Long-Term Solutions

Oil and gas decommissioning obligations can last decades. Most financial assurance tools were never designed for that reality.

Traditional surety bonds and reserve-based approaches tie up capital, strain balance sheets, and still leave operators exposed to regulatory, transaction, and reputational risk. In many cases, these tools are structured to avoid paying out, even though the obligation itself is inevitable.

As regulatory scrutiny increases and assets change hands, underfunded plugging and abandonment liabilities create compounding risk over time.
The solution

Purpose-Built for Plugging and Abandonment

OneNexus provides a financial assurance structure designed specifically for plugging and abandonment obligations.

By combining surety-backed financial assurance with a regulated, bankruptcy-remote funding structure, OneNexus ensures that funds are available when obligations are fulfilled.

Unlike traditional surety, OneNexus coverage is designed with the expectation that every policy will pay.

A Simple, Durable Structure

Coverage is issued to satisfy financial assurance requirements for regulators, counterparties, or landowners.
Contributions are held and grown inside a regulated insurance company with legally protected reserves.
When decommissioning obligations are fulfilled and coverage is released, the operator redeems the cash value.
