Striking A Balance
As part of their environmental stewardship efforts, operators
are seeking to minimize HS&E exposures by having fewer trucks
on the road, reducing water transfer route distances, and lowering the consumption of freshwater. The trend across the industry is toward longer laterals with more stages per lateral, resulting in larger frac jobs that pump more proppant and fluid, requiring larger volumes of water to support frac operation. Technological solutions in water treating, transfer and storage give the industry the tools it needs to cost-effectively deliver energy resources
with minimal environmental impact.
Environmental stewardship is the key to the success of the
upstream oil and gas industry. With their sound water management strategies, operators illustrate every day that it is possible to balance operating and environmental stewardship objectives. With the right technologies and best practices, the industry can achieve that balance in ways that also make sound economic sense.
Water management is not just a regional issue. Oil and gas companies must pay attention to larger water demands and manage
resources with the big picture in mind. Every participant in the
industry-from chief executives to field-level technicians-can contribute in meaningful ways to how the industry continues to balance the global need for energy with local needs for environmen-
tal safety and preservation.
In the future, the same technologies the industry is using today to treat, store and transfer water may one day be deployed
to enable the use of the water produced from oil and gas operations in applications beyond the energy industry. The possibilities are endless, beginning with agriculture and ranching, but extend to any application that now relies on nonpotable water supplies.
