The original acid-gas injection project near DCP Midstream’s Artesia, NM, gas plant started up in November 2003 and consisted of drilling an injection well and installing an acid-gas injection ...

Using data from field experiments and computer modeling of ground faults, researchers have discovered that the practice of subsurface fluid injection used in 'fracking' and wastewater disposal for oil ...

Earthquakes triggered by fluids injected deep underground, such as during the controversial practice of fracking, may be more common than previously thought, a new study suggests. Fluid injections ...

This article discusses major aspects related to the design and future operation of a high-capacity (~9,200 tonnes/day) CO2 injection facility. In particular, the need for a dedicated dehydration ...

Geoscientists have found that shallow wastewater injection -- not deep wastewater injections -- can drive widespread deep earthquake activity in unconventional oil and gas production fields. In a ...
