World Energy Presents: Water Technology & the Barnett Shale
World Energy Television continues its series on water technology with a look at the use of water in natural gas recovery. An important environmental and economic concern for natural gas producers is obtaining water, disposing of it, and recycling the water used in resource plays.
Industry experts, including Bill Stevens, executive vice president with TEAP; Brent Halldorson, COO of Aqua-Pure; Andree Griffin, the Forth Worth Basin geology manager for XTO Energy; Mark Whitley, senior vice president of Range Resource Corp. and Dr. Roberts Mace, director of groundwater resources for the Texas Water Development Board, visit WETV’s studios to examine the technology that makes water a viable new tool in production and manufacturing and to address issues of efficiency.
Although water is often mentioned in the context of wells,
in fact only
10 percent of the total water used is for drilling, while
the remaining 90 percent
is involved in fracing, or injection into a
natural gas well. This technology is more fully explained on WETV’s
new episode on water technology, as are
the development of resource plays,
evolutionary vs. revolutionary changes, and projections on water usage,
especially concerning fracing and the
Barnett Shale.
