Sponsorship

Sponsors are invited to provide funding support to advance independent research focused on the treatment and reuse of produced water generated by the oil and gas industry. Independent research efforts include areas such as characterization of produced water quality, evaluation of treatment efficiencies, and analysis of the benefits and potential risks associated with potential reuse.

Commitment

Sponsorships are encouraged to span a commitment of 3-5 years. This multi-year commitment will ensure a robust independent research effort required to effectively address scientific and technical knowledge gaps necessary to establish regulations and policies for the treatment of produced water. Pooled Sponsor funding will be used to support the operational and research needs of the Consortium.
