Produced water has typically been viewed as a waste product to be disposed. A recent webinar explored ways that this waste can be turned into value through treatment and reuse. Available options vary with the quality of the produced water.

A recent webinar discussed current technologies to enable reuse of produced water in gas and oil shale developments.
