Current Areas of Environmental Focus
WATER TREATMENT
Creating innovative solutions to treat and dispose of produced water—the largest volume of waste stream associated with hydrocarbon recovery.
REDUCING GHG EMISSIONS
Backing ground-breaking solutions to reduce the burning of unwanted gas associated with oil production—the most carbon-intensive part of producing oil and control fugitive emissions associated with hydrocarbon recovery.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Creating pioneering solutions that drive energy efficiencies at the well site towards a more sustainable hydrocarbon recovery.
