Applications
Oil and gas operators demand a 24-hour-a-day, 7-day-a-week performance from their wells, and any equipment associated with well operation must meet this performance standard. Many oil and gas wells are located in remote locations, and operate in harsh environments. Altela’s systems are designed to be operated unattended on a continuous basis in the harsh oil and gas field environmental conditions and require minimal maintenance.

The AltelaRainSM system is successfully treating produced water throughout the Rocky Mountain region. Multiple commercial sites have been commissioned from the San Juan Basin of New Mexico and extended into Canada. Clean water from our system is also being successfully reused by the Navajo Nation from a well site in northwestern New Mexico, saving the people in the region from having to travel hundreds of miles for clean water. The process has been recognized and approved by all necessary government agencies in New Mexico.

AltelaRainSM system highlights include:

• Extremely high quality of treated water
• Low relative cost
• High energy efficiency
• Unattended operation
• No fouling or scaling
• No membranes to replace
• Near-ambient temperature operation
• Ambient pressure operation
• Productive use of “free” waste heat
• No pre-treatment necessary
• No post-treatment necessary
• Ability to operate in diverse geographies
