Understand water management in unconventional plays
How technology and water converge in the economics of oil and gas production
Horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing are making significant impacts on the availability of energy resources, including natural gas and oil, but are also adding significantly to the demands of water in the production process. Improvements in operational efficiency and reductions in the use of fresh water resources can be achieved by applying recycling technologies for all water associated with the production process.
Water management solutions reduce water consumption & costs
Drilling, completion and production can employ water management solutions that incorporate state-of-the-art technologies including flow, level, pressure and analytics. In addition to reducing water consumption, applying these technologies can create a sustained competitive advantage by reducing capital investment and operating expenses.
Accurate and reliable detection of the interface between oil and water in a water dump tank improves the separation process. Capacitance level switches are used to detect the oil/water interface.
