Managing Produced Water Responsibly at the Alexander Class 1 Facility
At Alexander Class 1 Non-hazardous Injection Facility, we are committed to providing safe, compliant, and sustainable disposal solutions for the oil and gas industry. One of the primary waste streams we accept is produced water—a byproduct of energy production that requires careful handling to protect both the environment and surrounding communities.
What is Produced Water?
Produced water is the water that comes to the surface during oil and gas extraction. It often contains dissolved salts, hydrocarbons, metals, and naturally occurring radioactive materials. Because of these characteristics, produced water cannot simply be released into the environment—it must be managed through approved and secure disposal methods.
Our Solution: Class 1 Non-Hazardous Injection
The Alexander facility is designed to handle produced water safely through deep well injection. By utilizing Class 1 non-hazardous injection technology, we ensure that the waste is permanently isolated from freshwater supplies and sensitive ecosystems. Our wells are engineered with multiple protective barriers and meet all state and federal regulatory requirements.
Benefits of Our Injection Process:
- Safe Containment: Wastewater is injected thousands of feet below drinking water sources, in geologic formations that naturally contain saline water.
- Regulatory Compliance: Our operations comply with strict EPA and state guidelines to ensure long-term environmental protection.
- Operational Reliability: With dedicated infrastructure, we provide consistent and efficient service to producers needing reliable disposal options.
Supporting Responsible Energy Development
The oil and gas industry depends on secure disposal pathways for produced water. Our Alexander Class 1 facility offers producers peace of mind by managing their waste streams responsibly. By focusing on safety, compliance, and sustainability, we help ensure that energy development continues while protecting vital water resources.
