New Technologies
2005 Develop low-maintenance, laboratory scale processes to treat produce water at lower cost.
Develop techniques and strategies beneficial reuse or sale of produces water.
1995 2000 2005 2010 2015
2010 Develop pilot-scale low-maintenance, lower-cost produced water treatment unit.
Goal: By 2015, reduce the cost of produced water management for oil and gas operations by 15%.
Produced Water Management
Issues/Barriers: Produced water characteristics vary significantly both between regions and within regions. It is unlikely that a given treatment technology will work for all applications.
Current produced water treatment technologies are either too expensive or are not robust enough for oilfield applications or both.
The economics of produced water treatment vary significantly from region to region.
Laws and regulations governing surface discharge and water rights may inhibit some beneficial use applications.
1995 2000 2005 2010 2015
2010 Provide the tools for States to expand the use of Risk-Based Corrective Action by 25%.
2005 In conjunction with PERF, establish the scientific basis for clean-up parameters.
Goal: By 2005 reduce the cost of remediating soils contaminated with crude or refined product by 15% compared to 1990 approaches.
Remediation
Issues/Barriers: DOE cannot set the clean-up standards for remediation; we can only provide regulators with the scientific information to appropriate standards.
Clean-up technologies are fairly mature and the likelihood of a break-through that would significantly reduce cost is small.
1995 2000 2005 2010 2015
2006 Provide data on the term effects of coalbed methane production on coal seam aquifers.
2009 Provide impact analyses of coalbed methane production on wildlife species of concern (such as threatened and endangered species) and , where necessary, develop mitigation strategies that allow development to proceed while protecting the environment.
2005 Resolve questions surrounding the environmental effects of hydraulic fracturing.
Goal: By 2010 provide the solutions to current environmental issues and questions that will allow a 25% increase in natural gas produced from coal seams.
Coalbed Methane (CBM)
Issues/Barriers: CBM development, especially in the West, is a fairly recent phenomenon and new issues may arise
Water issues surrounding CBM development, especially in the West, have become an emotionally charged and all barriers cannot be resolved through science or technology.
Hydraulic fracturing continues to be an issue despite strong evidence, endorsed by the EPA, that hydraulic fracturing does not cause contamination of underground sources of drinking water.
The NEPA process in Montana is moving slowly and once it is completed, litigation may cause further delays in CBM development.
2007 Develop best management practices for treating and/or discharging coalbed methane water to the surface.
2006 Provide fate and transport data to determine the environmental impacts of infiltration ponds in the Powder and Tongue River basins.
1995 2000 2005 2010 2015
2005 Survey currently available bio-processing methods.
Goals: Biodegradation of chemical bonds or selective removal of heterotane (S,N) from crude oil (upgrade crudes) or refinery cuts offers potential to revolutionize refining with the possibility of reducing processing cost. Develop bio-technologies to economically upgrade crudes or remove sulfur from naptha boiling-range refinery cuts.
Bio-Processing
Issues/Barriers: The efficiency of bio-processing to upgrade crude or refinery cuts by removal of sulfur molecules has to improve by more than 108 to become competitive with current chemical processing .
The volume of water used for processing must be reduced by more than 105 over current laboratory volumes to be cost competitive. This is long-term, high-risk research.
2008 Develop methods to allow bio-processing from best available technology.
2010 Perform pilot-scale bio-processing of 25% of heavy crudes during the transport time between E&P and the refinery.
2015 Perform pilot-scale bio-processing of 50% of heavy crudes during the transport time between E&P and the refinery.
2010 Develop dispersion models to reflect E&P contributions in nonattainment areas.
1995 2000 2005 2010 2015
2012 Develop more accurate and robust air chemistry models and integrate them with dispersion models.
2007 Develop scientific data to more accurately predict particulate matter precursor formation in SW Wyoming.
Air Emissions
Issues/Barriers: Visibility science and measures are being developed and are apt to change significantly in the near future.
Acceptance and implementation of new model may be slow because of current model is sometime written into state law or regulation.
More robust models will require greater computing power that may not be available or affordable for all regulatory agencies.
Goal: By 2012 develop and demonstrate air chemistry and dispersion models that accurately reflect the effect of E&P and processing operations on regional air quality and visibility.
1995
2000 2005 2010 2015
Goal: By 2015, Improve the efficiency and yield of processing plentiful Western Hemisphere crudes by
Processing Heavy Crudes
Issues/Barriers: The Western hemisphere has huge volumes of heavy crudes that are high in sulfur, nitrogen, and heavy metals. Heavy oil is 12% of the total U.S. production and the U.S. imports increasing volumes of heavy crudes from Canada, Columbia, Mexico, and Venezuela.
2005 Select candidate heavy oils and match to U.S. domestic refinery.
2007 Characterize heavy oils of the Western Hemisphere.
2001 Establish pilot-scale operation of 50% of Western Hemisphere heavy crudes.
2009 Develop alternative processing technologies to allow heavy oil processing costs to be half of base year (2000) cost to light oil.
