Managing tailing ponds the easy way

Drilling mud on bootsIn Alberta, tailing ponds are a processing necessity yet an environmental sore-spot. Can they be used to handle other wastes?

With AppIntel, you can get newly submitted applications relevant to your operations. Just set up AppIntel hit alerts for the word  tailing pond . When a new application that contains this keyword is submitted to the regulator, you get an instant email notifying you.

One operator has received approval to use her tailing pond to also manage her drilling wastes. With this approval she can reduce wellsite sump footprints and hauling costs. The regulator agreed but specified some stringent rules around the use.

Applications are leading indicators

You need to be watching what other operators are doing. Applications are leading indicators of future industry activity.

Applications are an expos  of practical technology use. They show how technology works out in the field. They indicate success and failure of each type of technology. They even offer ways to conduct look-back analysis on technology installations.

Applications also broadcast the pessimism (or optimism) of an operator. They indicate the operator's short and long term plans.

The best way to stay on top of oil field technology is to watch applications.

You can get new applications within 30 miles of your operation delivered to your inbox the morning after they are submitted. Area alerts from AppIntel.

Good-bye to Suzanne West

This week we bid farewell to a friend, Suzanne.

Suzanne was a brilliant engineer and an energetic business woman. Talented reservoir engineer, she was founder of several oil and gas production companies.

In her most recent adventure, she attended environmental conferences and meetings where no other oil company dared to tred. She decided that at least one oil company should wade into the environmental fray and field the flack. We will miss her outspoken energy.
