    Typical Waste Steams Generated by
    O&G Industry
    • Oily water
    • Oily sludge
    • Spent catalyst
    • Spent caustic
    • Spent cleaning solvents
    • Spent filters
    • Pyrophoric scales
    • Contaminated soil
    • NORM waste
    • Laboratory waste

    Saudi Aramco: Company General Use


    Impacts of Hazardous Waste
    • Public health
    • Soil degradation
    • Groundwater contamination
    • Surface water contamination
    • Impact on flora and fauna
    • Air quality
    • Property value depreciation

    Saudi Aramco: Company General Use


    Sources of Oily Waste Generation

    • Upstream
    – Emergency oil pits
    – Drill cutting waste
    • Downstream
    – Pipeline scraping
    – Refinery & GOSP wastewater
    – Tank bottom sludge

    Saudi Aramco: Company General Use


    Oily waste Management
    Old Practices
    • Unlined oil pits
    – Soil and groundwater contamination
    – Ecological risks

    • Landfarming
    – Resource degradation
    – Soil and groundwater contamination
    – Liability risks

    Saudi Aramco: Company General Use


    Oily Waste Management
    New practices
    • Resource recovery technologies
    – Three phase centrifuge
    – Thermal desorption
    – Waste to Energy

    • Bioremediation
    – RR is no longer feasible
    – Reduce contaminants concentration
    – Effective under controlled conditions

    Saudi Aramco: Company General Use


    Waste Management Hierarchy

    • Prevent waste generation


    • Minimize waste generation
    • Reuse waste whenever possible
    • Recover resources from waste
    • Treat and dispose waste

    Saudi Aramco: Company General Use


    Case Study- GOSP

    Project Objectives
    • Oil recovery from a legacy pit
    – Separation of oil, water, and solids
    • Enhanced bioremediation
    – Excavate contaminated soil / sand
    – Use a bioremediation technology to treat
    soil

    Centrifuge Set Up for Oil Recovery

    Saudi Aramco: Company General Use


    Separation of Oil, Water and Solids
    • Three-Phase Centrifuge Unit
    – Production capacity -10 m3/h
    – Quick Mobilization &
    Demobilization time
    – Removal of oil and sludge
    – Heat treatment
    – Centrifugation to separate oil,
    water & solids
    – Over 8,500 m3 of oily water
    removed

    Engineered Biopiles

    Saudi Aramco: Company General Use


    Process Condition in Biocells
    • Microbial inoculum
    developed on site
    • Moisture: 8-12%
    • pH 6.7 – 7.4
    • Total Microbial count: 105 –
    108 CFU/g
    • Air / O2 supply
    • Covered to retain moisture
    Approximately 3,000 m3 of
    • Treatment time 4-12 weeks contaminated sand was removed
    and treated

    Treated Biocell Being Leveled

    Saudi Aramco: Company General Use


    Recovered Oil Sample
    • Around 50,000 bbl of oily
    sludge removed from the
    pit
    • 47,000 bbl (>7,700 m3 )
    of oil removed
    • Recovered oil value
    covered remediation
    costs and generated
    revenue.

    Summary

    • Oily waste shall be looked at as a resource NOT as


    a waste
    • Recovery of oily waste reduce environmental
    risks and increase company’s revenues
    • Bioremediation can reduces hazardous
    contaminates in soil
    • On-site oil recovery and bioremediation can
    reduce transportation risks
