It takes approximately 4.5 million gallons of fresh water to fracture a horizontal well. This water may be available from local streams and ponds, or purchased from a municipal water utility. This water must be trucked to the well site by tanker trucks, which carry roughly five thousand gallons per trip.
During flowback operations, approximately 300 tanker trucks are used to haul away more than 1 million gallons of flowback per well for offsite disposal. For a 3-well frac site, these numbers will increase by a factor of 3.
Brisben Water Technologies provides a cost-effective onsite water recycling service that eliminates the need to truck flowback to a disposal pit, holding pond, or recycling facility miles away.
