ABERDEENSHIRE-based solids control, hazardous waste stream, and wastewater company Separo has been awarded a three-year contract for the provision of produced water treatment services from Neptune Energy.
Separo’s SepSORB® water treatment system has, over the last two years, successfully reduced hydrocarbon content in produced water, supporting consistent environmental compliance on Neptune Energy’s Cygnus Alpha gas production platform, which is located in the UK Southern North Sea.
The firm said the new contract, the value of which has not been disclosed, was another endorsement of its expertise in dealing with reducing hydrocarbon levels in produced water, with SepSORB® already being used on platforms in the Dutch sector of the North Sea.
Andrew Crutchley, Separo chief operating officer, said: “The WTS division is a new addition to the business, but we have been supplying these highly effective produced water treatment solutions across the North Sea and beyond for a number of years.
“The treatment at source solution our skilled teams have developed enables our customers to lower their carbon footprint and reduce costs, which is crucial at this critical time for the industry in the UK and beyond.”
The Wastewater Treatment Services (WTS) division was recently launched following the company’s rebrand from Solids Control Services, which has been operating around the world for the last 30 years, to Separo.
The move also saw the creation of Solids Control and Industrial Waste divisions, which serve energy and industrial clients.
