produced water

The Evolution Pipeline System will help to mitigate Permian Basin seismicity through produced water recycling and diversion of produced water from areas of high seismicity.

This paper provides a work flow based on research in two methodologies to estimate formation-water salinity, enhancing the quality of saturation evaluation for quick decision-making during logging operations.

This paper presents field cases of a rigless wireline logging technique that accurately locates sources of water production in cased wells with standalone sand screens in an offshore field in the Caspian Sea.

This paper presents case studies of how produced-water salinity data was used to transform the performance of two oil-producing fields in Nigeria.

The produced water conundrum in the Permian Basin will be solved by a mix of recycling, disposal, and future breakthroughs in technology currently being studied.

When Occidental Resources switched to bigger fracture designs to produce more oil, it produced more water as well. Based on research done since, they cannot have one without the other, and at the oil prices recently seen, that’s OK.

The electric vehicle industry is creating a “dot-com” boom around the energy transition, spinning off a multitude of startups as it creates its own supply chain of new technologies in battery manufacturing.

Skyrocketing demand for the commodity has created a lithium deficit that could slow the pace of the energy transition. Industry is scrambling to find new sources by opening new mines or devising new technologies to extract lithium from brines, including brines found in produced water from oil and gas operations.

The paper presents a system for separation of water in downhole horizontal wells in which the water produced from the well is not lifted to the surface but reinjected into the reservoir.
