The positive b enefits of beneficial reuse are well recognized. Examples of beneficial re use in the oilfield include\; energy recovery, rigs to reefs, crop irrigat ion with produced water, enhanced oil recovery with produced water, reuse of flow-back water in hydraulic fracturing operations, reuse of non-aqueou s fluids, use of cuttings as construction aggregate and use of cuttings as a soil amendment. These reuse opportunities both reduce waste generation and resource consumption. While there is clear evidence these techniques a re both cost effective and good for the environment, they often face signi ficant challenges in their application from technical, cost, regulatory an d liability barriers. This presentation will review examples of technologi es that have overcome barriers and others that continue to struggle to wor k their way into common use.
