An oilfield in Libya: A new model to enhance waste water disposal

Abstract: The water produced at the Amal oil field in Libya is directly stored for evaporation in in-ground-pits. As there are a large number of oil production wells, there is a risk of environmental pollution because of the waste water’s eventual penetration into subsoil and surface waterways. From a technical point of view, the existing system of reservoir water disposal into storage pits will not be adequate to meet the increasing water production. Besides, the discharge of produced water without previous treatment i… Show more

“…The proposed solution supports the system of waste water disposal into brine storage pits, but with crucial difference in that the disposed water will no longer be environmental harmful. (Danilovic et al 2016). On (Figure 1) it can be seen one example of cost-effective process for the preparation of produced water at the Amal oil field on the basis of existing solutions and studies.…”
