Water management
This article addresses the challenges of managing water-soluble organics (WSOs) in offshore produced water. It provides a brief discussion of the chemistry, along with strategies and technologies that can be used to manage WSO levels in produced water, thus facilitating compliance with regulatory overboard water-quality guidelines.
This paper explores the development of direct-lithium-extraction technologies designed to recover lithium from unconventional feedstocks.
This paper reviews existing literature, the operator’s records, service-company data, and simulation studies to assess the risk of using seawater in carbonate acidizing.

The room for error and cost overruns just got a lot smaller with the escalating need to make operations more efficient and leaner with fewer resources and investors continuing to prioritize ESG alongside profitability.
-
Cutbacks in oil and gas production and drilling and completions will result in a decrease in produced water and will also lead to a reduction in water infrastructure investment.
