Book Environmental Review of Onshore Canadian Oil and Gas Drilling and Production Activities

Download or read book Environmental Review of Onshore Canadian Oil and Gas Drilling and Production Activities written by Canada. Environmental Protection Programs Directorate and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current and proposed Canadian onshore oil and gas drilling and production activities are reviewed with respect to their potential for environmental effects. Canadian petroleum geology and related hydrogeology are described to provide a framework for discussion of the impact of oil and gas drilling and recovery operations, including tar sands development, and waste disposal practices. Environmental legislation applicable to oil and gas industry activities is also reviewed. Major environmental concerns identified include the potential for soil and groundwater contamination by drilling fluids, solid wastes, chemical additives, oils and brines, produced sands, and liquid wastes. The potential for contamination depends on handling and disposal practices and the geologic and hydrogeologic characteristics of the drilling and production site. Although fairly comprehensive legislation is in place, its effectiveness in the long-term has not been assessed, and no specific legislation exists for in situ tar sands development. Areas where knowledge is lacking and research is required have been identified.

Book Environmental Control in Petroleum Engineering

Download or read book Environmental Control in Petroleum Engineering written by DR. John C. Reis Ph.D. and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1996-04-25 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The petroleum industry must minimize the environmental impact of its various operations. This extensively researched book assembles a tremendous amount of practical information to help reduce and control the environmental consequences of producing and processing petroleum and natural gas.The best way to treat pollution is not to create it in the first place. This book shows you how to plan and manage production activities to minimize and even eliminate some environmental problems without severely disrupting operations.It focuses on ways to treat drilling and production wastes to reduce toxicity and/or volume before their ultimate disposal. You'll also find methods for safely transporting toxic materials from the upstream petroleum industry away from their release sites. For those sites already contaminated with petroleum wastes, this book reviews the remedial technologies available. Other topics include United States federal environmental regulations, sensitive habitats, major U.S. chemical waste exchanges, and offshore releases of oil.Environmental Control in Petroleum Engineering is essential for industry personnel with little or no training in environmental issues as well as petroleum engineering students.

Book Regulating Water Security in Unconventional Oil and Gas

Download or read book Regulating Water Security in Unconventional Oil and Gas written by Regina M. Buono and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the need for deeper understanding of regulatory and policy regimes around the world in relation to the use of water for the production of ‘unconventional’ hydrocarbons, including shale gas, coal bed methane and tight oil, through hydraulic fracturing. Legal, policy, political and regulatory issues surrounding the use of water for hydraulic fracturing are present at every stage of operations. Operators and regulators must understand the legal, political and hydrological contexts of their surroundings, procure water for use in the fracturing and extraction processes, gain community cooperation or confront social resistance around water, collect flow back and produced water, and dispose of these wastewaters safely. By analysing and comparing different approaches to these issues from around the globe, this volume gleans insights into how policy, best practices and regulation may be developed to advance the interests of all stakeholders. While it is not always possible to easily transfer ‘good practice’ from one place to another, there is value in examining and understanding the components of different legal and regulatory regimes, as these may assist in the development of better regulatory law and policy for the rapidly growing unconventional energy sector. The book takes an interdisciplinary approach and includes chapters looking at water-energy nexus security in general, along with issue-focused and geographically-focused case studies written by scholars from around the world. Chapter topics, organized in conjunction with the stage of the shale gas production process upon which they touch, include the implications of hydraulic fracturing for agriculture, municipalities, and other stakeholders competing for water supplies; public opinion regarding use of water for hydraulic fracturing; potential conflicts between hydraulic fracturing and water as a human right; prevention of induced seismic activity, and the disposal or recycling of produced water. Several chapters also discuss implications of unconventional energy production for indigenous communities, particularly as regards sustainable water management. This volume will be of interest to scholars and students of energy and water, regulators and policymakers and operators interested in ensuring that they align with emergent best global practice.

Book Petroleum Waste Treatment and Pollution Control

Download or read book Petroleum Waste Treatment and Pollution Control written by Shahryar Jafarinejad and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Petroleum Waste Treatment and Pollution Control combines state-of-the-art and traditional treatment and control methods for removing, controlling, and treating problems, such as groundwater contamination, aromatics, oil, grease, organic removal, and VOCs. The book is divided into seven chapters, with the first briefly introducing readers to the petroleum industry. The second and third chapters explain wastes in the petroleum industry and focus on its environmental impact, its regulations, and protection options. Chapters four, five, and six discuss the treatment of air emissions, oily wastewater, solid wastes, and disposal methods.. The final chapter provides remediation processes. - Presents the latest methods for treating, controlling, and eliminating pollutants from air, water, and land that are a byproduct of petroleum industry operations - Covers the environmental impact of the petroleum industry and its regulations, explaining protection options - Includes treatment methods for both air, water, and solid waste disposal - Discusses remediation processes, including natural processes, pump and treat, soil flushing, soil vapor extraction (SVE), bioremediation, and excavation
