Produced Water
Managing produced water from extraction activities, which may contain oil residues, salts, and Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM), demands rigorous environmental and safety compliance. Produced water is often a last-minute challenge, and we understand the need for rapid solutions. At ASCO, we act fast. From problem to solution, without wasted time.
We provide end-to-end produced water services, from treatment to storage, and safe disposal, helping you maintain compliance, meet tight operational deadlines, and optimise efficiency.
Full-cycle produced water solutions
We support both onshore and offshore operations, delivering projects that reduce risks, optimise turnaround times, and ensure critical operations stay on schedule. Our solutions can also be integrated into larger decommissioning projects, providing seamless management of complex waste streams.

Produced Water Collection & Transport
Using specialist fleet of vehicles, we ensure produced water is transported safely and efficiently from offshore or onshore operations to strategically located treatment centres. -

Produced water components are safely treated, disposed of, or recycled where possible, helping clients meet environmental targets and obligations while maintaining operational continuity. -
Project Management & Planning
Dedicated project managers coordinate every stage of the produced water lifecycle, ensuring operational efficiency, and clear communication with all stakeholders.
