Michels Corporation is a family-owned and operated energy and infrastructure construction company headquartered in Brownsville, WI.

Established in 1959, Michels Corporation ranks #27th out of 400 top contractors in North America,[2] performing work throughout the world.

[5] The next decades brought expansions of infrastructure-related services, including sewer, water, tunneling and fiber-optic communication networks.

The controversial project, representative of many similar oil and gas pipeline projects Michels Corporation completes, has been applauded for job creation, but has also been called "dangerous" for local communities and a major contributor to climate change by creating substantial greenhouse gas and carbon emissions through the burning of fossil fuels.

[7] After former U.S. President Donald Trump approved a permit for the Keystone Pipeline in 2017, the project was halted by the United States federal government under Joe Biden's White House administration on June 9, 2021.

Michels Pacific Energy works with engineering partners on Engineering-Procurement-Construction and Design-Build delivery method contracts.

Services include pipe fabrication; oil, gas, and water pipeline installation; compressor and pumping station construction; and integrity, maintenance, and emergency repairs.

[citation needed] Michels owns and operates approximately 100 pits and quarries in Wisconsin to mine and produce aggregates, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers-approved armor stone and granite.

[18][19] Specialized equipment includes concrete paving machines, batch plants and mobile recycle crushing spreads.

The directional drill project beneath the Missouri River and the Lake Sakakawea Reservoir was part of 10 miles of 20-inch diameter pipeline construction.
