At Nano Gas™ Environmental, we take the global water crisis seriously, so we’ve developed a revolutionary water recycling system to help ease this crisis. Even better? This same eco-friendly system will help oil and gas companies turn a higher profit. Most people may not realize it, but there’s an ongoing water scarcity problem affecting communities…
During the initial stage of oil recovery, efforts are usually only able to secure about 10% of a reservoir’s original oil. This is a problem – not just for the oil and gas industry but also for the economy. That’s why most companies have begun using secondary and tertiary oil recovery methods to drive up…
Primary oil recovery methods allow oil and gas companies to receive about 10% of a reservoir’s oil. In other words, initial recovery leaves about 90% of the oil untouched. To address this significant issue, companies use secondary oil recovery methods to increase production rates. Unfortunately, traditional primary and secondary oil recovery techniques still aren’t nearly…
Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) sounds great in theory. After all, what oil company doesn’t want to access more oil from its wells—especially in this economic climate? But we don’t live in theory; we live in reality. So, let’s get down to brass tacks: How does enhanced oil recovery work and why should you use it?…
Few things are more costly and wasteful than produced water disposal in the oil and gas industry. Those of us who have tried produced water treatment are all too familiar with how painful this can be. Gravity separation and chemical treatment in a gunbarrel recovers some of the oil but who knows how much oil…
What should oil and gas companies do with all the contaminated water they produce during the oil and gas recovery process? If you’re in the oil and gas industry, then you’ve probably grappled with this frustrating question. The question is challenging because, up to this point, the options for oil and gas water treatment and…
World demand for oil and gas is not going away. Therefore, we need new solutions to make the industry more efficient. Initial drilling of the well, which might include fracking, typically produces about 10% of the available oil before the production rate falls way off. The industry then uses several traditional improved oil recovery (IOR)…
