Waste Treatment and Disposal

[tab name=’Management’]

Custom Drilling Waste Management Solutions

We are not a one size fits all solids control equipment provider. To deliver totally customized waste management solutions, our equipment is designed in a modular format enabling the implementation of unique configurations that fit a wide range of operating needs.

Maximize Drilling Efficiency

Before deploying manpower and equipment, we carefully plan the waste management solution according to local legislation, to maximize drilling efficiency, ensure sustainability, and meet or exceed safety and environmental standards.

Reduce Waste

As the demands to reduce the environmental impact of operations increase globally, Alpha Oilwell Technologies continues to develop purpose-built facilities designed to handle and treat the waste streams generated by operations. Custom treatment and disposal techniques are selected based on the goals of maximizing fluid recovery and reuse for operations, while minimizing actual disposal volumes.

Environmental Compliance

Alpha Oilwell technologies uses proven and reliable processes for developing the best solution per well for treating and disposing of drilling waste, considering safety and environmental impact, environmental regulations and the elimination of long term liability. Equally important is achieving operating efficiency by separating as much liquid and waste as possible. This lowers cost by having less waste to dispose of and enabling more drilling fluid to be recovered for reuse.

Full customization to meet your needs

Our equipment is designed in a modular format enabling the implementation of unique configurations that fit a wide range of operating locations to deliver a totally customized cuttings handling and transport solution.

Cost-effective cuttings handling solutions that maximize drilling efficiency

Before deploying manpower and equipment, we carefully plan the waste management solution according to local conditions, to maximize drilling efficiency, ensure sustainability and meet or exceed safety and environmental standards. By adhering to our mainstay processes; deploying the right technology; and integrating people and processes, we are able to help improve drilling performance and avoid non productive time.

Assurance that your environmental compliance requirements are fulfilled

In areas where environmental regulations prohibit discharging or dumping waste material, it must be properly handled and contained at the rigsite until the collected material can be transported to a treatment area.
