The Montney Formation, Alberta Canada
For this project in the Montney Formation, HydrEra operated in two separate field locations. A total of 53,000 m³ of fluid was transferred and 6 pumping stations were used.
The DJ Basin, USA
- Location: The DJ Basin in Colorado, USA
- Tank Size: 2,400 m³
- Liner Material: TPU
- Fluid: Freshwater
- Equipment: 40 ton crane, skid steer
- Personnel: 6 man tank erection crew
- Conditions: Ambient temperature of approximately 32°C/90°F, wind speed 10 to 30 km per hour/6 to 18 miles per hour
The DJ Basin is a formation that is abundant in crude oil and natural gas. However, the scarcity of water in the area and the significant amounts required for the extraction process make freshwater storage a critical component. Our freshwater storage solutions provide a dependable and steady supply of freshwater.
In this project, we utilized our innovative HydrEra Harpoon tanks. These tanks offer superior head pressure and flow, eliminating the need for on-site transfer pumps to provide fluids to the frac. This resulted in improved efficiency and ES&G for the client, without any reported incidents or spills.
