recycled 2.2 Million bbl of water in 2019

---

Flowback and produced water are characterized by: 

•High dissolved organic matter, including volatile compounds and hydrocarbons 

•High salt content (often >35 g/L) 

•Metals (e.g., iron, manganese, calcium, magnesium, barium, etc.) 

•Dissolved gases (e.g., H2S)  

•Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM)  

•High concentrations of suspended solids, oil, and grease   

High capacity scalable system capable of 4,200bbl (650m3) – 60,000bbl (10,000m3) per day of Frac Flowback and Produced Water.

Cleaning Produced and Flowback water prior to disposal/injection significantly improves well performance by 25-30% increase of overall well production. Increased volume as well as reduced well maintenance costs. 

The Major Challenges in Recycling and Reusing Produced and Flowback Water

•Highly variable water quality (different producing zones and water characteristics) 

•High salinity – Obstructs most forms of treatment 

•NORMS- biproduct waste is to expensive to manage.

 •Volume requirement is larger than existing technology can manage
