1 CONSIDERATIONS FOR TREATING WATER ASSOCIATED WITH SHALE GAS DEVELOPMENT GROUNDWATER PROTECTION COUNCIL Water/Energy Sustainability Symposium 2010 Annual Forum Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania September 26-29, 2010 David Alleman, ALL Consulting
2 PROJECT FUNDING Funding for this project was provided by DOE s National Energy Technology Laboratory ALL Consulting is the primary research organization with the Ground Water Protection Council serving as a research partner Other cooperators include state agencies, treatment companies, and industry 2
3 DOE/NETL PROGRAM ROGRAM GOALS NETL: Program designed to promote domestic natural gas production by providing technologies to overcome the technical challenges associated with unconventional resources. 3
4 PW TREATMENT REATMENT CATALOG/TOOL Major Treatment Technologies: Capabilities Availability by Play Vendors Cost Estimates/Ranges t Mixing and Scale Affinity Model Regulatory Considerations Disposal Considerations 4
5 INTRODUCTION Shale gas holds tremendous potential for U.S. energy supply. High volume hydraulic fracturing (HVHF) is an importantkey to developing thisresource. Managing water for HVHF can be a challenge. Treatment can alleviate source and disposal issues. Water is treated for many reasons, the right technology varies! 5
6 SHALE GAS FOCUS AREAS Barnett Fayetteville ll Haynesville Marcellus Woodford 6
7 HYDRAULIC FRACTURING Horizontal wells completed in shale use 3 to 5 Million gallons of water to hydraulically fracture High Volume HF is typically done in 6-18 consecutive stages Water is obtained from varies sources and delivered by truck or pipeline On site storage is in tanks or centralized impoundments 15 to 50 % (or more) of the fracture fluid is recovered 7
8 WATER CONSIDERATIONS Water Sourcing Well Drilling Well Completions Flowback Water Produced Water Production Operations Pre-completion Withdrawal Transport Storage Completion Post-completion Storage Transportation Treatment for disposition 8
9 PRE COMPLETION 9
10 WATER SOURCING Options available to meet water needs for drilling and fracturing Total Water in Gallons to Drill and Fracture Surface Water Groundwater 4,000,000 Fracturing Water Municipal Water 3,500,000 Drilling Water 3,000,000 Recycled Produced 2,500,000 Water 2,000,000 1,500,000 Collected Water 1,000,000 Private Water 500,000 Purchases 0 Barnett Fayetteville Haynesville Marcellus *Drilling performed with an air mist /water based /oil based mud for deep horizontal well completions. 10
11 SOURCING CHALLENGES Withdrawal: Access Timing Permitting regulations are complex and changing Other uses Transport: Cost Potential Road and community impacts Storage: Cost Surface disturbance Permitting Cumulative Impacts Barnett Shale Water Uses Power Generation Irrigation Livestock 3.70% 6.30% 2.30% Industrial and Mining 4.50% Shale Gas Wells 0.40% Public Supply 82.70% Groundwater Use in Barnett shale counties ranges from 1.95 percent in Somervall County to 85 percent in Cooke County 11
12 COMPLETION 12
13 HF FLUID COMPOSITION Fracture fluid chemicals are in the headlines Other parameters have significant implications TDS concentration Scale tendencies Regulatory agencies are pressing for disclosure (e.g. AR, NY, PA, TX, WY, and others) r Biocide requirements Source: Compiled from Data collected at a Fayetteville Shale Fracture Stimulation by ALL Consulting Additives for fracturing are considered treatment 13
14 POST COMPLETION 14
15 PW MANAGEMENT OPTIONS Four Basic Options Injection Surface discharge Beneficial use Reuse in HVHF All options have challenges All options may require some level of treatment 15
16 INJECTION CHALLENGES Limited UIC well capacity Geologic limitations Timing few wells in newly developed areas Lack of near by wells creates transportation issues 16
17 INJECTION CHALLENGES Limited UIC well capacity Geologic limitations Timing few wells in newly developed areas Lack of near by wells creates transportation issues 17
18 DISCHARGE/BENEFICIAL USE CHALLENGES Treatment required Disposal of treatment concentrate Changing regulatory requirements Potential environmental impacts Potential liability issues 18
19 REUSE BENEFITS Reduced withdrawals (and associated concerns) Reduced Disposal needs Reduced cost Reduced environmental concerns 19
20 REUSE CHALLENGES Blended water must be suitable for fracture fluid TDS concentration effect on friction reducers Scale tendencies Bio fouling 20
21 TREATMENT GOALS Three primary treatment goals Rd Reduce TDS (desalination) for discharge/beneficial i use Reduce volume for disposal Reduce scaling and bio fouling for reuse or UIC Produced water quality varies Between basins Within basins Over time High TDS concentrations limit treatment options 21
22 PRODUCED WATER QUALITY Barnett , ,000 mg/l TDS Marcellus TDS Highly variable (50, , mg/l) Fayetteville 8,000-30,000 mg/l TDS Haynesville 150, , mg/l TDS Total Diso olved Solids in mg/ /L Three Year TDS Profile for Vertical Barnett Shale Well Year
23 TREATMENT DESALINATION Thermal Distillation Mechanical Vapor Recompression (MVR) Condenses steam for reuse Corrosion/scale can be problems TDS <200, mg/l Reverse Osmosis Force water through an osmotic membrane Membrane fouling and replacement costly TDS <40,000 mg/l 23
24 TREATMENT VOLUME REDUCTION Thermal Evaporation Reduced volume Dispose of concentrate Crystallization No limit on TDS Zero Liquid Discharge Dispose of solids 24
25 PRE TREATMENT/CONDITIONING Flocculation remove suspended solids Scale inhibitors ph adjustments Biocides Liquid chemical biocides Ozone Kills microbes Affected by COD Limited residual kill Ultraviolet l t Light Kills microbes No residual kill Ultrasound reduces biological i l growth. Can reduce concentrations of heavy metals, TSS and turbidity levels More effective when it is applied with ultraviolet light or ozone 25
26 TREATMENT/CONSTITUENT Water Treatment Process Organics Suspended Solids Biologics (bacteria & algae) Low TDS <10,000 mg/l) Med TDS <50,000 mg/l High TDS >50,000 mg/l Thermal Distillation/ Evaporation X X X X X X Crystallization X X X X X X Reverse Osmosis X X X X UV Sterilization X X Ozone X Ultrasound X X X Metals MATRIX TABLE 26
27 MANAGEMENT/TREATMENT DRIVERS Social Environmental Conservation of Resources Aquatic Impacts Economic Cost of withdrawals Cost of transportation Technical Lack of injection capacity Treatment limitations Company policies 27
28 TREATMENT Availability varies by basin New vendors entering the market Several pilots underway/planned Treatment tfor shale hl gas water remains in it s infancy 28
29 KEY MESSAGES Shale Gas is going gto remaining an important source of energy Large volumes of water are necessary for production Treatment can conserve source water and reduce waste stream Treatment is more than desalination Desalination options are limited Reuse is an important option Treatment technologies are advancing and changing 29
