Can the Oil Industry Benefit from Desalination Wastes?
This is an investigation of the feasibility of injecting concentrates from desalination plants into pressure-depleted oil or gas fields. The objective is to (1) evaluate the use of depleted fields as sites for injection wells to dispose of desalination concentrates and; (2) demonstrate to the regulatory community that deep-well disposal of concentrates in oil and gas fields is safe and reliable.
