| Title: |
Waste management system |
| Text: |
"Mobil implemented a waste management program for the
Hugoton field operations. The waste management system
decreased overall waste-related costs while improving
compliance assurance and reducing potential liability. The key element was a mechanical solids control system consisting of a semi-closed loop centrifuge flocculation dewatering process that removes solids for burial on location." |
