💡 Did you know that geosteering offerings many environmental benefits as opposed to traditional drilling methods? "But.. how?" We're glad you asked. 🌎 We reduce your environmental footprint. Geosteering allows for more precise navigation of drilling paths which minimizes the need for extensive drilling and surface disturbance. This helps preserve natural habitats and ecosystems in sensitive areas. 🌏 Geosteering helps reduce the amount of drilling waste generated by accurately steering the drill bit toward target reservoirs. This decreases the risk of soil and water contamination. 🌍 With geosteering, operators will better target productive zones which maximizes oil and gas recovery while minimizing the need for additional drilling. Less drilling = less overall environmental disruption. 🌎 And finally, Impac's geosteering service provides you with constant and continuous monitoring to allow operators to quickly identify and mitigate potential risks, such as fluid loss or formation damage. We want to help you ensure responsible drilling practices. Give our team a call and let's work together to promote more environmentally friendly options in oil and gas drilling.

#Groundwater #Alberta #ShellOil #ShellEnergy #Sulfolane #EricaPensini #UniversityOfGuelph #UniversityOfSaskatchewan #WorleyParsonsKomex "A compound used to treat sour gas that's been linked to fertility issues in cattle has been found throughout groundwater in the Prairies, according to a new study. Scientists at the University of Guelph and University of Saskatchewan have identified "large contaminant plumes" of sulfolane, particularly in Alberta. Dr. Erica Pensini, associate professor at Guelph's school of engineering, says researchers are tracking how it is spreading in groundwater, work that could help identify risks to supplies of potable water. She says the study suggests that naturally-occurring sulfates (salts) react with sulfolane in groundwater and its ability to "mix more thoroughly with water." "Sulfolane plumes travel faster with fewer sulfates, so we're trying to clarify migration in the context of what can we do to tackle this contamination," said Pensini in a news release. "We're also partnering up with hydrogeologists and eco-toxicologists to explore other aspects that we're not directly exploring in our lab," said Pensini. Sulfolane, introduced to the market in 1944 by Shell Oil, is "widely used" to remove hydrogen sulfide – a process better known as 'sweetening' – from sour gas at thousands of sites across Alberta. Sulfolane is virtually invisible and doesn't have a particularly strong smell, so it is nearly undetectable in bodies of water. "In most cases, you would not notice its presence," Pensini told CTV News in a statement. According to a 2008 report by WorleyParsons Komex for Shell Energy Canada, sulfolane was first detected in groundwater in the 1980s and, in 1994, a monitoring program was put in place. ... According to the Canadian government, "the toxicological database for sulfolane is limited." "Overall, oral exposure to sulfolane in experimental animals was associated with immunological, renal and reproductive and developmental effects," the government's website reads. ... According to the AER, the body that monitors companies in Alberta's energy sector, there are 27,562 active sour gas wells in the province, a figure that does not include inactive, abandoned and reclaimed wells. Many more are scheduled to be drilled, the AER said in a statement to CTV News. In addition to other regulations, the agency says all facilities that process sour gas require approval under Alberta's Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act (EPEA). Pensini acknowledged that "practices have changed" when it comes to the handling of sulfolane. "New sulfolane contamination is most probably less significant," she said. "Filters contaminated with sulfolane are no longer being washed directly into aquifers." However, she adds that several decades' worth of contamination is still present in Alberta's groundwater."

Dealing with poor soil conditions shouldn’t drive up the cost of your project. In this case study feature, GeoCell products were used to reduce construction time and costs and ensure the structural integrity and longevity of the Oil and Gas drilling pad in Western Canada: ➡️ GeoCell can improve the structural coefficient of native sandy soil to about 0.35 using just 4″ (100 mm) of soil depth, instead of the usual 20" (500 mm) without GeoCell. ➡️ Baselok™ GeoCell system provided a durable, cost-efficient, and quickly installed drilling pad solution for shale gas extraction operations Check out the detailed case study to see for yourself: https://hubs.la/Q02RY7CN0 #casestudy #civilengineering #geocell #construction

Engineering Marvels The Construction of Offshore Oil (Deep-Water) Platforms Offshore oil platforms are engineering marvels designed to withstand harsh ocean conditions while extracting oil from deep beneath the seabed. These massive structures are built on land and towed to their final location, where they're secured to the ocean floor. Using advanced drilling technology, they can reach oil reserves miles below the surface. only some oil companies own this sophisticated technology, giving them a significant competitive advantage in deep-water oil extraction. #OffshoreOilPlatforms #DeepWaterDrilling #MarineEngineering #EnergyIndustry #OceanTechnology #EnvironmentalConcerns #PetroleumEngineering #GlobalEnergy #OceanConservation #IndustrialSafety #MarineEcology #FossilFuels #ClimateChange #EnergyPolicy #OceanResources #SustainableEnergy #OilIndustry #MarineScience #OffshoreTechnology #RenewableEnergy @Shell @ExxonMobil @Chevron @BP_plc @GreenpeaceUK @motto.panah

Balancing the need to prevent excessive surface sealing and uncontrolled water intrusion into the ground, especially in areas with shallow underground mining, requires innovative solutions. That's where blue-green infrastructure & #NBS comes into play. The development strategy for #rainwater #management in Miasto Jaworzno will not be created in isolation - the collaborative approach is ensured thanks to involvement of the municipality departments, Wodociągi Jaworzno sp. z o.o. and other relevant stakeholders. On 12th March, our Regional Implementation Group convened for the first meeting. The focus of the discussion centered around identifying the key success factors for #rainwater #solutions. Two critical factors emerged: the need for comprehensive cooperation among all levels of government responsible for blue-green infrastructure, and the importance of strategic management and spatial planning that incorporates a substantial share of biologically active areas within the city. In next months MAURICE Project teams from Główny Instytut Górnictwa - Państwowy Instytut Badawczy & Miasto Jaworzno will work on these aspects - stay tuned for updates on our progress as we work towards a more sustainable and water-resilient community, as #cooperationiscentral

The plan includes drilling the longest-ever horizontal wellbores beneath Erie homes, spurring vehement community opposition. The Draco Well Pad proposal gives many additional pauses because extreme-length 5-mile wellbores will be used to drill horizontally from Weld County into Boulder County. Currently, the longest documented wellbores in the United States measure 21,277 ft, about 4 miles, at the Sacate Sa-2 well in Santa Ynez, California. #dracopad #fracking #horizontaldrilling #wellbores #coloradoenergyandcarbonmanagement State of Colorado Civitas Resources Stop Draco Pad International Association of Drilling Contractors Town of Erie Physicians for Social Responsibility https://lnkd.in/gcUmNNcY
