2 Operators in the Permian Basin are investing heavily in water management in an effort to reduce overall drilling and operating costs. The returns are substantial - operators are set to save billions over the lifetime of their Permian Basin operations with a robust water management strategy. With the barrel fleeting, the WTI price for crude sits at $45 meaning that it is more critical than ever for operators to identify and implement cost-reduction strategies on their water management operations. To navigate this environment, operators are asking critical questions including: What are the major risks with sourcing water? What is the cost and how do we adapt our working environment? What volumes are operators working towards to clean up produced water? Is there a limitation on how much can be treated in one day? What are the most effective chemical programs available for minimizing TDS and mitigating scaling? The benefits of a robust water management system are all too clear at least 55% of a well s operating expenses can be attributed to water management. E&Ps in the Permian Basin are set to save billions in water operating costs as they develop their water systems. Using American Business Conferences proven formula for delivering detailed content for the energy sector s upstream challenges, the Water Sourcing & Produced Water Management 2017 conference in Houston on September will give operators the tools and knowledge to fully realize the most economic approach to water management through practical and relatable casestudies. Led by water management experts from across the region, speakers will share their successes, giving attendees a complete picture to identify areas of cost reduction and the knowledge to maximize their margins. I believe this conference touched on crucial operations in the Permian Basin. Case studies and examples were relevant and lessons-learned has direct opportunities to my company s acreage Field Production Engineer, EQT Production Learn from the best and brightest from the Permian Basin Production Engineer, EQT Production A good collection of experts on a variety of topics CWI Engineer, Shell Thoroughly enjoyed the conference. Great platform to learn operators perspectives and network Well Stimulation Specialist, Chevron The information and content from ABC congress is always of high value Development, Tracerco Unparalleled Networking, Sponsorship & Exhibition Opportunities months ago operators were fixated on price, now, its more about total cost and reliability, which doesn t necessarily mean adopting the cheapest option. With Permian operators wanting to be more reliable, more efficient, while making their processes better, this event offers a large range of platforms and packages available to support your business development and branding objectives.
