Global Water Intelligence and the Produced Water Society are hosting an exclusive gathering in Houston on November 12th for the key executives, investors, lenders and operators building the future of water in the Permian Basin. It aims to give each attendee the market insight, the connections, and the impetus to make a success of this unique opportunity and identify the path to market domination.

Why the water midstream?
The water midstream is among the hottest areas of infrastructure investment in America during 2019. Water resources, delivery systems, disposal wells, storage and reuse will shape the future of the unconventional oil and gas industry in the Permian Basin. Investors can see the opportunity in a unique asset class that blends infrastructure investment with America’s most productive energy reserve and delivers ESG benefits of reuse and replacing trucks with pipelines.

Success factors
This is an industry that consolidates into winners and losers. The winners will be the ones with the pipelines in the most strategic positions, with the most flexibility in water sourcing, the ability to transfer flowback water for treatment and reuse, meeting their customers’ needs at the lowest cost. The losers will be those with expensive assets and no strategy or system connectivity. The decisions made in the next 6 – 9 months will determine the winners and losers.

Why attend?
Everyone involved needs to understand the groundwork and the changing ground rules for what the financial and operational side of the water midstream can do within regulatory constraints and what operators need from the finance and midstream players. The key is to enable continued growth, but also smart growth in the sector, with an eye not just on resource development but on responsible environmental policies and practices that safeguard water resources for the future, keep stakeholders invested in the industry’s success, and maintain the Permian Basin’s lead in global energy production.

The objective of this workshop is to give attendees the market insight, connections, and the impetus to make a success of this unique opportunity and identify the path to market domination. It will fill in the gaps in understanding for anyone interested in getting involved in the water midstream business. Hear from state regulators, operators, financiers, lawyers, analysts, and leaders of water midstream businesses to uncover the best strategy for your entry into one of the most exciting new markets in the field.
