Doc,
Almost all oil and gas wells make some saltwater, some more than others. That is why there are separation facilities at the wellsite. Typically the salt water is collected in a holding tank and then trucked to an injection well.
The oil or condensate is also collected in holding tanks and hauled away by truck if there is not a pipeline nearby.
The gas has to go in a pipeline.
Occasionally you will see production from the well separated and metered at the wellsite and then put back in a pipeline going to a facility that can properly deal with it.
