Water Management
Select leads sustainable water management solutions in the energy industry, prioritizing responsible water resource stewardship. Our ongoing investments in innovative technologies, operational efficiencies, and environmental practices transform produced water from waste to valuable resources, utilizing fixed and mobile recycling facilities and advanced AquaView® technology.
Our extensive permanent and mobile pipeline infrastructure (~3,000 miles) reduces reliance on traditional trucking, lowering emissions and minimizing local impacts. We offer comprehensive water sourcing, transfer, treatment, and disposal services, collaborating closely with governmental entities and communities to foster sustainable practices and regulatory compliance.
Water Treatment and Recycling
In 2024 approximately 70% of our capital expenditures, and an even greater percentage of our growth capital expenditures, went to our Water Infrastructure segment. The majority of this Water Infrastructure spend was used to fund sustainable growth projects primarily around our recycling facilities and pipeline infrastructure, which significantly reduce natural resource use, specifically the use of freshwater. Our commitment to sustainable growth drives value for all stakeholders including customers, investors, employees, and communities.
Beneficial Reuse
Select Water Solutions continues to advance its beneficial reuse program to reduce freshwater use and convert produced water into a sustainable resource. We are currently partnered with industry consortiums, research universities, and regulatory bodies to develop the technology, operational procedures, and quality standards for a wide range of applications. Specifically, Select currently has multiple active pilot projects in both the Permian Basin in Texas and DJ Basin in Colorado, ongoing infrastructure investment, and diverse industry collaboration, Select is laying the groundwork for commercial-scale beneficial reuse solutions.
And with over 20 permanent and modular treatment facilities and hundreds of miles of produced water pipelines, particularly in the Permian Basin, Select has already built the critical infrastructure needed to scale beneficial reuse.
