• Keep In response to this nomination for deletion, additional citations were added to demonstrate the notability of the organization and related reliable media coverage. The additional citations include articles and news coverage from established industry publications and journals such as Oil & Gas Journal, Offshore Engineer, E&P Magazine and World Oil. In further support of HWCG's notability, the organization has been invited to testify in front of various US Government committees on the progress in offshore safety since Deepwater Horizon (citations with links to this testimony are included in the entry). HWCG has played a major, notable role in the progress of offshore drilling safety in the United States, as reflected in the cited governmental testimony and 10+ other articles cited. --Cdevwrites (talk) 20:43, 4 September 2015 (UTC) User:Cdevwrites is the creator of this article.

• Delete for now (draft & userfy if needed) as my searches found nothing better than this and similar with browser. Simply not anything to suggest meaningful better improvement. SwisterTwister talk 07:16, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

• Still keep You can vote only once As a note for anyone trying to search for additional sources/information, the organization was formerly called Helix Well Containment Group in the years immediately following Deepwater Horizon and seems only recently dropped down to HWCG. The linked search results for "hwcg llc company" in the previous comment use too narrow of a search term to get a full picture of coverage, as many recent news mentions just say "HWCG." To get the full sense of notability, it's necessary to evaluate coverage for both Helix Well Containment Group and HWCG together (although Helix Well Containment Group is no longer the organization's correct name). In that sense, you will see the organization has been covered by NPR, National Geographic, the New York Times and the Houston Chronicle, in addition to the sources already cited in the entry. For example, National Geographic called HWCG's containment system one of the "most hopeful energy developments" of 2011.. This coverage doesn't appear in the narrower search above, as it uses the organization's old name. Cdevwrites (talk) 15:38, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
