Water and Wastewater Solutions For The Oil and Gas Industry

  1. Flow Meter Helps HollyFrontier's Woods Cross Refinery Measure Flare Gas For Safety And Environmental Compliance 8/13/2018

    When the plant team at HollyFrontier’s Woods Cross Refinery, near Bountiful, Utah, needed mass flow meters to measure flare gas to the main flare header, the team drew on its past metering experiences for this difficult application.

  2. 24″ PIPELINE DELUMPER® Heavy-Duty Inline Processor 11/30/2020

    This 24″ PIPELINE DELUMPER® was design to handle 84,000 lbs/hr of polypropylene for a major petro-chemical company. The unit features 24 inch inlet and outlet flanges, stainless steel construction and a 50 HP motor to handle oversized agglomerates of polypropylene. The unit de-agglomerates troublesome scale and lumps that can cause operational difficulties for a petro-chemical plant. Reliability is critical as the unit is to be installed extremely high up in a relatively inaccessable area.

  3. The Future Of Fracking: Evaluating Emerging Technologies 2/10/2015

    How can the U.S. and other countries profit from hydraulic fracturing AND protect water resources? New technologies hold the key to environmentally responsible shale-gas production.

  4. Fuel And Fuel Additives 2/22/2011

    The fuels that propel modern society have been found in water supplies all over the world. Some fuel-related contaminants can be found at a majority of the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (USEPA) National Priority List Sites, where they pose a potential threat to human and environmental health.

  5. Resource Revolution: The Energy/Water Nexus In Unconventional Oil & Gas - Highlights 4/29/2015

    GE partnered with the Wharton School's Initiative for Global Environmental Leadership (IGEL) for an industry leaders' discussion about the energy/water nexus in unconventional oil & gas production.

  6. How To Reduce Methane Emissions With Thermal Mass Flow Meters 2/18/2016

    The flare gas discussion is heating up again. According to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), U.S. oil production is at an all-time high, and so are the harmful methane emissions from leaks, flaring and venting.

  7. Moving Towards Effective Management Of Produced Water 8/18/2022

    You cannot produce oil without water, because water is present naturally in both onshore and offshore oil reservoirs. This naturally occurring water is called produced water. Produced water has a simple to complex composition that is variable, and it is considered as a mixture of dissolved and particulate organic and inorganic chemicals (Al-Ghouti et al. 2019) with an average of 7 to 10 barrels of produced water being generated for each barrel of oil during the course of an operation (Guerra, Dahm, and Dundorf 2011).

  8. The Top 3 Treatment Stories Of 2017 And What They Mean For 2018 1/16/2018

    Last year was full of twists and turns for the drinking water and wastewater treatment industries. What can 2017’s biggest stories tell us about what’s to come this year?

  9. AVT - AVT EZ Valve Install Keeps Work On Track At German Oil Refinery 4/10/2026

    Industrial repairs at height require lightweight, efficient solutions to maintain production schedules. Under-pressure valve insertion allows for the rapid creation of isolation points on elevated pipelines, ensuring system continuity and safety without the need for extensive shutdowns.

  10. Discfilters Treat Up To 12,000 gpm Of Secondary Sewage For Cooling Water 10/26/2016

    The client is one of the largest combined electric and gas companies in the United States, servicing 1.8 million gas customers and 2.2 million electric customers in more than 300 urban, suburban and rural communities. Following a successful site visit, the Client contracted Veolia for the treatment of up to 2725m³/h (12,000 gpm) of sewage plant effluent for cooling tower make-up.
