H2O Midstream Completes The First Commercial, Truckless, Produced Water Hub In The State Of Texas
HOUSTON, June 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- H(2)O Midstream recently completed construction of the first commercial, "truck-free", produced water storage and disposal hub in the state of Texas. The Railroad Commission of Texas issued H(2)O Midstream the commercial permit for one million barrels of storage, just the second such permit issued by the Railroad Commission, and the first for a facility that is serviced entirely by pipelines. A new 35,000 barrel per day deep Ellenberger disposal well is co-located with the storage.
Located in Howard County, TX, the produced water hub consists of two state-of-the-art 500,000 barrel ponds connected to a network of 10 disposal wells totaling 220,000 barrels per day of capacity via a pipeline network of more than 130 miles. The newly built water hub provides multiple benefits to producers in the area including enhanced reliability, peak flowback management, and centralized storage for produced water reuse.
"This is an important step forward for the water midstream industry and demonstrates H(2)O Midstream's long-term commitment to improving environmental and safety conditions through the use of permanent infrastructure and interconnected water gathering, disposal, reuse and storage facilities," said Jim Summers, Chief Executive Officer of H(2)O Midstream. "We continue to build efficiencies and drive cost savings for our customers by lowering lease operating costs and reducing total capital requirements while delivering reliable, safe and sustainable operations."
