Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Large quantities of waste are produced when oil and gas wells are drilled. The two primary types of drilling wastes include used drilling fluids (commonly referred to as muds), which serve a variety of functions when wells are drilled, and drill cuttings (rock particles ground up by the drill bit). Some oil-based and synthetic-based muds are recycled; other such muds, however, and nearly all water-based muds, are disposed of. Numerous methods are employed to manage drilling wastes, including burial of drilling pit contents, land spreading, thermal processes, bioremediation, treatment and reuse, and several types of injection processes. This report provides a comprehensive compendium of the regulatory requirements governing the injection processes used for disposing of drilling wastes; in particular, for a process referred to in this report as slurry injection. The report consists of a narrative discussion of the regulatory requirements and practices for each of the oil- and gas-producing states, a table summarizing the types of injection processes authorized in each state, and an appendix that contains the text of many of the relevant state regulations and policies. The material included in the report was derived primarily from a review of state regulations and from interviews with state oil and gas regulatory officials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to an American Petroleum Institute production waste survey reported on by P.G. Wakim in 1987 and 1988, the exploration and production segment of the U.S. oil and gas industry generated more than 360 million barrels (bbl) of drilling wastes, more than 20 billion bbl of produced water, and nearly 12 million bbl of associated wastes in 1985. Current exploration and production activities are believed to be generating comparable quantities of these oil field wastes. Wakim estimates that 28% of drilling wastes, less than 2% of produced water, and 52% of associated wastes are disposed of in off-site commercial facilities. In recent years, interest in disposing of oil field wastes in solution mined salt caverns has been growing. This report provides information on the availability of commercial disposal companies in oil and gas producing states, the treatment and disposal methods they employ, and the amounts they charge. It also compares cavern disposal costs with the costs of other forms of waste disposal. At the federal level, the majority of oil field wastes are considered to be exempt from the hazardous waste provisions of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). These wastes are instead regulated at the state level. All oil and gas producing states allow some oil field wastes to be disposed of on-site. The commonly used on site disposal methods include underground injection, on-site burial, land spreading or other land treatment, evaporation, surface discharge, and recycling. Argonne National Laboratory conducted interviews with oil and gas officials in 31 oil and gas producing states to learn how oil field wastes are disposed of in their states and to identify commercial off-site disposal companies.

Book excerpt: Alberta's certification program for reclaimed upstream oil and gas facilities changed on October 1, 2003 to include stronger requirements for management of contamination, including any related to drilling waste. This document was developed by representatives from the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers, drilling waste disposal consultants, Sustainable Resource Development, the Energy and Utilities Board, and Alberta Environment to provide guidance for assessing drilling waste disposal areas for reclamation. To address the diversity of drilling wastes and available information types, three compliance options have been developed. Each of the three options is discussed in this document and appendices are included to support technical procedures included in the options.--Document.

Download or read book Management of Drilling Wastes from Oil and Gas Field written by Nguyen Ba Loc and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-02-01 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Awareness of the importance of environmental issues has become more and more central to the thinking of the oil and gas industry in the last decades. This research provides an overview of the oil and gas drilling waste management in Vietnam and other countries and explores appropriate treatment technologies to manage drilling wastes. The main two types of drilling wastes treated were Drill Cuttings and Drilling muds. Simultaneous amplification of treatment processes were obtained either by comparing of current technologies being employed in other countries with all two types of drilling wastes by using appropriate processes and optimized treatment conditions. The author would appreciate feedback from industry and researchers on the use they have made of this research, and any other guidelines or assistance needed, as input to the research to further enhance the environmental performance of the oil and gas industry.
