Oil and gas producers strive to minimise the proportion of their product that isn’t exported to market, using technical and chemical expertise to improve the separation of hydrocarbons from the produced water streams.

The Chemicals Technical Group is working to implement the OSPAR Risk Based Approach to produced water management, identifying risk drivers and looking for mitigation measures.

New installations or reworked production systems are designed to reduce or eliminate produced water discharges entirely.
