Segment Overview

Saltwater-disposal and injection-led businesses serving produced water volumes.

Disposal is the permitted destination for water that is not routed to reuse or another authorized outcome. Operators must manage the surface system and the injection well as one controlled process.

Capacity, pressure, geology and regulatory conditions determine whether an injection route can operate. The chart marks the disposal branch, which is only one possible destination.
