Western Midstream Partners Launches Second Water Treatment Facility

Western Midstream Partners, alongside its Joint Industry Project, or JIP, collaborators Chevron (CVX) U.S.A., ConocoPhillips (COP), Devon Energy Corporation (DVN), and Exxon Mobil (XOM), announced the start-up of its second produced-water treatment pilot facility, or JIP 2, near Red Bluff Reservoir in Reeves County, Texas. The facility is designed to receive 2,000 barrels per day of produced water and produce approximately 1,000 barrels per day of reclaimed freshwater, or approximately ten times the amount produced by JIP 1. This new facility builds upon the success of JIP 1 which evaluated and field-tested multiple produced-water treatment technologies to select preferred, high-performing solutions for ongoing operations. In 2023, WES and its collaborators created JIP 1, a small-scale pilot site in West Texas, to evaluate and measure technologies needed to commercialize beneficial use of produced water in the Permian Basin.
