Devon uses a distillation process on the Barnett Shale

(Aqua-Pure Ventures Inc.) to recycle its frac water. I find their NOMAD unit to be more expensive (at least .065 per gal.) and lower volume (2,000 bbl. per day) than ECCI which can use a stationary platform at third of the cost and 63 times more production per day:

Drillers need about 1.5 million gals. of water to fracture a vertical gas well and about 3.5 million gals. of water for a horizontal well. 80% of the water returns to the surface with salts and heavy metals that need to be removed before the water can be recycled to some other productive use. Transporting untreated waste water to an injection well where it is "lost" costs about $2.00 per barrel, all inclusive cost. ECCI sure does make sense and cents for these wealthy energy companies and the TRRC!
