Rendering seawater suitable for use in hydrocarbon production

Oil and gas facilities use seawater for a range of applications, including enhanced oil recovery (EOR), equipment cooling, fire suppression, potable water generation, and desalter operations. Prior to its use, seawater must be suitably treated for biofoulants, dissolved oxygen, and suspended or dissolved solids.
