class 2 oilfield processing and disposal services
White Owl currently provides oilfield processing and disposal services to Bakken customers in North Dakota. White Owl provides Class 2 water disposal services from six SWD’s in North Dakota, located at Tioga, Ross, Watford City, Epping, Killdeer and New Town.
Future plans include the development of a network of facilities that treat, process, recover, and dispose of the full range of oil and gas waste streams. These facilities will process all types of oil and gas wastes in an efficient, convenient, and environmentally sustainable manner using a combination of processing technology, heat, time, and pressure to separate these waste streams into three components; water, solids, and oil.
Class 2 facilities at Tioga, Ross, Watford City, Epping, Killdeer and New Town can receive the following oilfield waste streams:
- Produced water from oil and gas operations
- Stimulation fluids recovered from production, injection, and exploratory wells, i.e. “flow back”
- Enhanced recovery waters including fresh water
- Brine reject from enhanced recovery operations
- Fresh water from oil and gas production facilities
The plant processes employed include filtering of water to remove solids, separation of the oil through a skimming process and deep well injection of the water. The oil recovered is treated to meet sale specifications and delivered to the nearest pipeline terminal for shipping.
White Owl’s disposal locations are situated in and around major producing fields. White Owl has a keen interest in quick turnaround times and our SWDs feature industry leading unload times, averaging 12 minutes to unload a truck.
