Produced water is naturally occurring water that comes out of the ground along with oil and gas. Most oil- and gas-bearing rocks also contain water. When the oil or gas is extracted from these rocks, the water comes out too. This "produced water" is a byproduct of almost all oil and gas extraction, though the amounts of produced water can vary widely in different places or over the lifetime of a single well.[1] When hydraulic fracturing has been used, some of the frac fluid may also return to the surface. This is sometimes called "flowback water".[2] Flowback water is the murky, salty water from fracking natural gas wells. It consists of frac fluid which returns to the surface along with the produced water.
As a global leading energy analytical services company. Alfa Chemistry is an accredited third party analytical laboratory that has certified in over 1000 chemical parameters. Our laboratory can provide produced and flowback water sampling and testing service according to the requirement of ISO 17025.
