SPE Water Lifecycle Management Conference and Exhibition
5–7 March 2024 | Abu Dhabi Energy Centre, Abu Dhabi, UAE

The oil and gas industry is facing new challenges and opportunities in managing water resources. A holistic approach that balances operational efficiency, cost optimisation, and environmental responsibility is essential for sustainable growth. Today most of the hydrocarbon production worldwide is coming from conventional and unconventional fields and this conference and exhibition is set to explore and showcase strategies, technologies, and best practices that define the modern water management lifecycle specific to this industry.

The variability in the quantity and quality of water managed in the operations is immense and depends on several factors such as reservoir requirements, financial limitations, and regulatory constraints. Integrated water management, combining strategic planning and technological innovation, plays a crucial role in controlling life cycle costs. Furthermore, this approach represents a great opportunity to turn wastewater into potential resources while contributing to the pursuit of carbon-neutral energy, thereby minimising the environmental impacts of oil and gas production.
