Attention is on what can turn profits now and how operations can take advantage of this new era of green energy. Powering an ORC system with co-produced fluids can increase efficiency and reduce costs, it may just be the cost-effective and simple solution operators are looking for.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Problem<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Along with the extraction of oil and gases comes hot water, this mixture is commonly known as co-produced fluids. This hot water is either pumped back into the ground to maintain well pressure or is removed, the two costing the oil and gas industry billions each year. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-usa-shale-water-kemp-idUSKCN0J223P20141118\">Experts estimate that an average of 7 barrels of water are produced for every 1 barrel of oil.<\/a> As wells age, they also tend to have significantly increased output ratios of hot water versus oil or gas, decreasing their economic viability. This hot water can be used as a geothermal heat source, providing renewable power. If there is such an abundance of hot water, why is there not infrastructure in place to take advantage of this resource?<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Solution<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Co-produced fluids were, up until recently, considered a nuisance and uneconomical for power generation. This is because co-produced fluids are not at a high enough temperature to be used in traditional steam power production and the infrastructure required left a complex footprint. However, thanks to advancements in Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) technology this low-temperature heat can now be utilized with heat to power systems such as the ElectraTherm <a href=\"https:\/\/electratherm.com\/de\/stromerzeuger\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>Strom+ Generator<\/u><\/a> oder <a href=\"https:\/\/electratherm.com\/de\/aktiver-kuhler\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>Aktiver K\u00fchler<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>ElectraTherm\u2019s ORC heat to power technology can utilize the thermal energy in fluid heat sources as low as 70\u00b0C and generate clean electricity, providing a baseload power supply or additional revenue stream.
