As regulations become more stringent and communities more closely monitor oil and gas operations, water operators must ensure that produced water is tested, and treated and that it meets specific environmental compliance and safety standards.
Produced water often needs to be treated before it can be safely returned back to the
environment, and, in order to do so, operators must understand produced water makeup so that chemicals, heavy metals, and dissolved
solids can be identified and removed. Each operation has their own unique processed
water composition and therefore require different parameters and contaminants to be tracked and removed.
