The complete paper summarizes the results and lessons learned from the application of different methods used for fluid disposal in a wide range of well-testing operations around the globe. These were used to determine that economical and environmentally responsible solutions exist for fluid disposal during these operations. The complete paper also details a field-proven and cost-effective fluid-storage solution using a shuttle tanker during well-test and flowback operations offshore.
Fluid-Disposal System
Ecologically sound and safe fluid disposal during well testing and cleanup is one of the primary objectives, from an operational standpoint, of any temporary surface well-test package. Each fluid-disposal system is designed and sized for each operation according to the expected operating conditions.
