We read that drilling is slowing down. The economy is slowing down. Business growth is slowing down. But in the middle of the slowing down, we can all speed up. Our phone is ringing.
We’ve known for some time that agriculture is the new midstream solution for by-product water. In the business-as-usual world no one had time for a new solution, even if it was better than the old one.
But not anymore. Land application is the only sane solution to “dispose” of by-product/produced water. We “dispose” by putting it to good use on the soil, not in a hole under pressure. And we do it for less than traditional disposal.
Now’s the time to figure out the new normal. And it starts with water on the ground.
