Water Management Solutions

TETRA has automated the key processes throughout our water management solution to ensure greater efficiency and safety. Our closed-loop system also allows for local and remote pump and tank water monitoring.

Having a high quality, timely, and adequate supply of water for hydraulic fracturing operations is critical for a successful unconventional well completion project. TETRA has a team of water sourcing professionals that have proven experience.

Moving water, especially produced water, through often harsh environments presents risks. TETRA Steel™ hose is the industry’s only double-jacketed, UV-resistant, quickly deployable hose. It delivers leading flow rate capability and withstands the highest operating pressure of any lay flat hose on the market.

TETRA pipeline solutions provide safe, reliable, and environmentally sound delivery of fluids to, from, and across the job site. Our team constructs and repairs pipelines ranging from 2 to 36 inches in diameter for hydrocarbons, freshwater and produced water.

TETRA storage solutions ensure drilling and completion operations have a sufficient water supply onsite and on-demand. We offer designs for smaller, above-ground storage tanks. All our above-ground storage solutions are easy to assemble and engineered to the highest standards.

From automated water recycling systems that economically process alternative types of water to on-the-fly water treatment and blending technologies that eliminate bacteria and sulfides prior to fracturing operations, we help ensure consistent water quality throughout completion operations.

Plate and frame diatomaceous earth (DE) filtration systems are recommended for filtering brines, chemicals, and produced water in completion, stimulation, and workover operations. We also provide a selection of other high-flowrate filtration systems that use sock- or cartridge-based media.  Back-washable filter technology is also available.

Our unique blending technology enhances the economics of produced water beyond normal blending techniques. Our frac water blending system includes an automated blending controller coupled with a patented, on-the-fly blending manifold.

Our frac water treatment specialists perform a broad range of field and lab testing to deliver customized, cost-effective clean water solutions, including, water analysis, bacterial analysis, water clarification and scaling index analysis.
