Range Recycles ALL its Wastewater + Water from 14 Other Drillers
A number of Marcellus/Utica drillers recycle most, if not all of, the flowback and produced water from the wells they drill. Produced water (from the depths) continues to pour out of wells for years after they're drilled. Produced water is super salty, filled with minerals. If a driller can't reuse the water, they must dispose of it--typically via an injection well (in Ohio). Range Resources not only recycles all of its own produced water but also accepts and reuses produced water from 14 other drillers!
