GE has been selected to build key components for ProWater’s Centerline SWD™ modular saltwater disposal (SWD) and deep injection well (DIW) systems, which separate oil, water and other byproducts produced in oil and gas operations. ProWater, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sustainable Environmental Technology Corp. (SET Corp) based in Southern California, USA, develops technology for disposing saltwater produced from oil and gas wells. GE Oil & Gas’ systems are used to inject produced saltwater into deep injection wells in conjunction with the Centerline SWD™ system. The addition of variable speed drives and logic control systems will lower operating costs, improve SPS and Centerline SWD™ reliability, as well as provide intelligent monitoring and control capabilities. ProWater expects to deliver the first Centerline SWD™ system in North Dakota by the end of January 2012, with projected completion by March 2012. The proprietary Centerline SWD™ system utilizes green technology to efficiently separate oil, water and other byproducts produced in oil and gas operations. This three-pronged separation approach enables ProWater to derive revenue and safely dispose of the remaining components by selling oil to refiners and providing filtered water for use in hydraulic fracturing or water injection. Applied to approved formations, this re-used injected water reaches thousands of feet below potential ground water zones.
