Some 21 billion barrels of wastewater a year flows from oil and
natural gas wells in the US, and while the market to recycle frack water
has been slow to emerge, the potentially multi-billion-dollar arena is
now starting to take off in earnest.
It takes between 70 billion to 140 billion gallons of water to frack 35,000 wells a year, the industry's current pace, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and while recycling frack water is still a relatively new idea, companies are coming under increasing pressure to do so, and Schlumberger predicts a strategic boom in the business.
