The emphasis has changed primarily because the majority of the produced fluid is water. This paper will deal with one major challenge facing the oil industry today - produced water. Handling produced water is costly; however, by employing good produced water management, additional revenue can be derived. This presentation will include the following: "Evaluating Present Water Equipment," "Internal Tank Designs," "Method of Skimming," "Salable Oil," and "Treating Reclaimed Oil."
