Abstract | ||||
Production of oil and gas is accompanied with large volumes of produced water. Produced water is separated from the oil and gas and either re injected into the reservoir or discharged to the environment. Therefore, evaluation of produced water characteristics is very important and essential for both environmental and reservoir management. Produced water is a very complex mixture and contains different compounds that can have negative impact on the environment and economic problems associated with oil and gas production. This study has evaluated the characterization properties of produced water in Sarir oil field. The evaluation included the analysis of physio-chemical parameters e.g. pH, salinity, total dissolved solids (TDS), cations and anions constituents. These parameters show a wide variation from well to another. | ||||
