EPA Approves ProOne Downhole Drilling Treatment for Offshore Use
Houston, Texas (PRWEB) January 22, 2015 -- The United States Environmental Protection Agency Region IX has approved ProOne’s Bio-Stable Downhole Drilling Fluid Treatment for use in offshore oil & gas operations in federal waters off Southern California. Specifically, the product may be discharged when used with approved drilling muds at 0-3% by volume.
“This opens up an entirely new market opportunity for ProOne,” said Don Barnes, Executive Vice President of Sales. “The exceptional performance of the product has been proven in hundreds of on-shore wells in North Dakota, Texas, Oklahoma and California. With the product being biodegradable and passing the LC-50 and other tests required by the EPA, we will now introduce this technology to the offshore drilling and production community.” The company also plans to work closely with onshore operators in Wyoming, New Mexico and elsewhere facing strict Bureau of Land Management compliance requirements for toxicity.
