Potential of Using real-time OiW monitoring for control of produced water treatment in offshore oil & gas production
(Corresponding) Zhenyu Y.
Topic:
Water treatment
The produced water has been the largest produced fluid stream at most of the current offshore oil & gas production in North-sea. It is not uncommon that the water cut can reach 90% in many matured production fields. No matter the produced water will be eventually discharged to the ocean, or...Read more

Functionalized iron oxide nanocomposite ultrafiltration membranes for water-in-oil emulsion separation
Wadi V., Ouda M., Naddeo V., Banat F., (Corresponding) Hasan S.
Topic:
Water treatment
Removal of emulsified water in oil (w/o) emulsions are the most challenging compared to free water and dissolved water emulsions. Emulsified w/o cannot be removed by conventional techniques such as settling tanks, oil skimmers, floatation and magnetic technologies. Membrane technology is a highly...Read more
