  1. Reliable Thermal Switch Ensures Safe Operation Of Loading Arms At Marine Terminal To Prevent Spills 6/26/2019

    A leading European-based marine terminal operator with locations on every major continent is responsible for the managing, handling, storing and distribution of large quantities of oil and gas, as well as refined petrochemicals, which serve industries and consumers around the globe. The company’s thousands of employees are highly trained and are focused on the safe, reliable and efficient storage of large quantities of bulk products at each of its locations.

  2. New Report Offers Long-Awaited Answers About Reusing Oil And Gas Industry's Wastewater 5/2/2017

    A new report from the Oklahoma Water Resources Board’s Produced Water Working Group indicates that oil and gas companies looking for ways to dispose of large volumes of wastewater should focus on recycling those liquids within the oil and gas fields, and not use it for irrigation or other surface applications where human and environmental exposure is a risk.

  3. How Oil & Gas States Did (And Did Not) Protect Land And Water In 2018 1/11/2019

    Keeping an eye on what happens with domestic oil and gas regulation is a bit like herding cats. We’ve seen encouraging progress on air quality issues related to oil and gas, but an equally critical front that’s seen major action is protection of our land and water resources.

  4. Disruption To Growth: Navigating The Sensor Revolution 4/22/2016

    As critical gateways to the Internet of things (IoT), sensors are sure to have a massive social and economic impact globally within the next decade.

  5. Water Scarcity In Texas: Rushing Ahead Of Science Could Scuttle Solutions 1/28/2020

    Water scarcity is a challenge facing many Texas communities, and it’s encouraging to see how many state leaders are proactively exploring solutions to our growing water needs. This has brought the oil and gas industry and the massive volumes of water it uses and produces each year into the conversation.

  6. New Technologies Set To 'Disrupt' The Industry 2/24/2014

    For the unfamiliar, the term “disruptive technology” initially sounds quite bad, as though it describes something that gets in the way. Far from impeding progress, however, disruptive technologies actually accelerate progress exponentially by disrupting the status quo. Think personal computers vs. mainframes, or cell phones vs. land lines.

  7. Oilfield Pollution In West Texas: Engineering Lessons For Groundwater Protection And Advanced Oxidation 1/29/2026

    Legacy oilfield contamination requires advanced strategies to protect vital groundwater. Explore the technical challenges of subsurface remediation and how advanced oxidation processes provide a more effective pathway for destroying persistent hydrocarbons and restoring aquifer quality.

  8. Selenium Removal Technologies: A Review 1/15/2016

    Selenium, a contaminant of concern in industries such as mining, oil refining, and power generation, is removed from wastewater principally through either biological or chemical/physical processes. This article will describe those technologies, several technology providers, and other sources of information.

  9. 3 Solutions To Water-Intensive Fracking 9/23/2015

    Are you for or against it? It seems everyone has picked a side in the debate over hydraulic fracturing (“fracking”), but most conflict would likely fall away if fracking was performed in a proven safe and sustainable manner, verified by a reliable source.

  10. Pile Cloth Media Filtration Effectively Removes COD And TSS From Oil Refinery Wastewater 12/6/2023

    This application profile focuses on two test sites with different treatment requirements and describes how Aqua-Aerobic Systems’ OptiFiber® pile cloth media filtration was used at both sites to address the removal of harmful constituents from refinery wastewater.
