The petroleum industry must minimize the environmental impact of
its various operations. This extensively researched book assembles
a tremendous amount of practical information to help reduce and
control the environmental consequences of producing and processing
petroleum and natural gas.
The best way to treat pollution is not to create it in the first
place. This book shows you how to plan and manage production
activities to minimize and even eliminate some environmental
problems without severely disrupting operations.
It focuses on ways to treat drilling and production wastes to
reduce toxicity and/or volume before their ultimate disposal.
You'll also find methods for safely transporting toxic materials
from the upstream petroleum industry away from their release sites.
For those sites already contaminated with petroleum wastes, this
book reviews the remedial technologies available. Other topics
include United States federal environmental regulations, sensitive
habitats, major U.S. chemical waste exchanges, and offshore
releases of oil.
Environmental Control in Petroleum Engineering is essential for
industry personnel with little or no training in environmental
issues as well as petroleum engineering students.
