Phase 2 (FST) construction underway.
The upstream petroleum industry generates significant quantities of produced
water during normal ongoing operations which requires proper disposal. This facility
provides custom treating and is approved to accept third party sweet and sour
produced and waste waters (Class Ib) for deep well injection into the 09-31-055-20
W5M pipeline-connected disposal well.
All fluids and solids will comply with Energy Resource Conservation Board (ERCB)
guidelines for Class 1B fluids and solids handling. Oil that has been treated and/or
recovered is pipelined and marketed through the Pembina Pipeline facility. Produced
(Class II) and residual treatment waters (Class IB) are deep well injected at our onsite
Class Ib disposal well. Residual solids are transported to the Secure Class II South Grande
Prairie Landfill. As responsible corporate neighbors, Secure has designed, constructed
and is committed to operating our facilities with full regard to the environment and
public health and safety. Secure has employed best engineering practices in the
development of this project:
A closed system is utilized when offloading any sour hydrocarbon based liquid
and slurry loads to prevent fugitive H2S emissions and occupational exposure.
Our process vessels and tanks utilize a state of the art vapor collection and recovery
system to ensure no fugitive emissions. As part of that collection system, each tank is
“blanketed” with natural gas to minimize any odours associated with the tank contents.
When new product enters any tank, the blanket gas is displaced from the tank and is sent
via the vapour recovery system to the flare system. Conversely, when product leaves the
tank, additional blanket gas is added to the system to keep the system operating safely.
