High Efficiency Oil Recovery
99% Sales-Quality Oil Captured from Produced WaterProduced Water Management - Maximize Oil Recovery and Deliver Recycle-Quality Water in 2 Stages
Effective produced water (PW) management is a key driver of profitability. MYCELX delivers optimized water treatment systems that enable operators to recover “sales-oil” quality oil, reduce saltwater disposal (SWD) and maintenance costs, and achieve recycle-quality water in two steps.
As reservoirs mature and natural pressures decline, the ratio of water to oil increases dramatically. In regions like the Permian Basin, operators often face water cuts exceeding 90%, along with complex treatment challenges such as emulsified hydrocarbons, dissolved salts, suspended solids, and residual chemical additives. Coupled with rising water cuts, these conditions make effective PW treatment systems more critical than ever.
MYCELX’s two-stage produced water treatment system, MYCELX Advanced Coalescer (MAC) and Regenerative Media Filter (REGEN), delivers next-generation, recycle quality water (10ppm). This system handles significant fluctuating inlet concentrations, recovers 98% oil with <2% BSW, reduces suspended solids, is closed loop/zero emissions, and no chemicals required.
Solids (TSS) Removal (Tons/Year)
Average Inlet OiW Concentration ~ 6000 mg/l
Annual Oil Recovery
(<2% BS&W)
Average Inlet TSS Concentration ~ 400 mg/l
Lower CAPEX & Installation Costs
50,000 BPDMAC 3 vessels vs Gun Barrel 12 Tanks MAC Footprint 14x Smaller than Gun Barrels
Cleaner Water, Greater Efficiency
MAC's effluent water quality is consistently <200mg/l at inlet concentrations exceeding 7% OIW. When compared to the effluent water quality of the gun barrel system, the difference is clear. Consistent, clean water protects downstream assets and when paired with the REGEN, the result is Recycle-ready water.
