Water management
The acquisition will add water infrastructure in both the Midland Basin of west Texas and the Williston in North Dakota.
This work investigates a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to acidification for sheen control.
The authors of this paper discuss how intelligent completions in the Gulf of Mexico have allowed for increased production, reduction in operating expenses, enhanced overall reservoir recovery, and improved safety and environmental performance.

The paper aims to address the challenges and opportunities in managing produced water and its contaminants in the petroleum industry. -
The industry no longer considers the water as only a logistical problem. Now, it is a front-and-center component of any life-cycle planning.
-
At SPE’s Permian Basin Energy Conference, operators shared behind-the-scenes details on innovations such as drilling horseshoe wells and trimulfrac completions along with in-basin challenges such as handling produced water.
-
A comprehensive, digitized water-management application has been designed to streamline and enhance the monitoring and management of water resources used in hydraulic fracturing.
-
This first of a two-part series provides guidelines for designing and operating advanced produced-water systems on offshore platforms, covering fluid characterization, chemical treatment, equipment, process configuration, operations, and effluent quality.

The authors of this paper study the effect of solids particles on oil/water separators and on produced-water treatment.
-
Researchers at Texas A&M University have developed a method of refining "liquid gold" for valuable critical minerals using what many consider traditional waste products: produced water and carbon dioxide.
-
This paper describes a method to manage high-salinity produced water in an environmentally sustainable way by extracting potable water and reducing discharge water volume by at least 50%.
