  1. Real World Surveillance, LLC 22nd Annual Produced Water Society Seminar January 15, 16 & 17, 2013 A Real World View of Microbial Management Presenter: Johnny D. Richard “A Hands On, Eyes Open Company” RWS A Real Eye for the Real World

  2. MESSAGE TO THE NFL COMMISIONER

  3. A Real World View of Microbial Management Quantitative BioburdenTesting Requires: • Understanding What You are Measuring • Understanding What You are NOT Measuring

  4. A Real World View of Microbial Management • Developing Correlations between: • Test Methods, • Process Information, • Physical Data, • Water Chemistry Data, etc.

  5. Microbial Management Difficulty Must Have Defined Purpose Operations Process Maze

  6. Microbial Management in Upstream Oil and Gas Proactive Source Surveillance Costly Reactive Surveillance Downhole Camera Photos of Scale

  7. Costly Reactive Root Cause Analysis Downhole View Laboratory View Biomass effect on Tubing Laboratory Picture of Biomass

  8. Microbial Management Prevents Sweet Crude From becoming Sour Crude Maximum Profit Increasing Cost

  9. Microbial Management Prevents the Need for This Sour Water Stripping

  10. A Real World Program Prevents: Microbes not the main cause but sometimes a contributor

  11. The Bag is Back!

  12. Microbial Test Comparison

  13. A PLANKTONIC VIEW OF A REAL WATER SAMPLE

  14. A SESSILE “BIOMASS VIEW OF A REAL WATER SAMPLE

  15. “Microbial Management” All methods are unique! ≠ ≠ Viable sub-populations of total populations Total bacterial population Estimate of activity of total population

  16. RWS View of Field Data

  17. Samples Received @ RWS

  18. LuminUltra Technologies 2nd Generation ATP (QGA) • Sample Prep (1 ½ hours) • Results in 5 minutes/sample Log Comparison with Culture Method (5 Days)

  19. LuminUltra Technologies Interpretation Guidelines

  20. BART’s (Biological Active Reaction Tester) “Culture Method” T01 SRB-IRB T02 SRB-IRB C-Tank SRB Results after 1 day

  21. BART Test After 5 Days T01 SRB-IRB T02 SRB-IRB C-Tank SRB

  22. Population Average Based on Estimated Population BART Culture Test Example

  23. Samples from a Separate Independent Lab 2ndStg A & A-2) Float Cell(A & A-2) Source(A & A-2) Source(B & B-2)

  24. NO SUPER BOWL

  25. Defining Microbial Contamination Question #1: what do we want to know about the microbial population?

  26. Question #2: What will we do with the results (data)? Data Archive Treatment Trend RCA ALL DATA REQUIRE AN ACTION

  27. Question #3: What are your information priorities? Operations View

  28. Question #3: What are your information priorities? Managers View

  29. Question #3: What are your information priorities? Engineers View

  30. A Real World View of Microbial ManagementStart Clean & Stay Clean

  31. Make the Shift from Reactive to Proactive Time is money. Same day results = control

  32. Inspection spools are still valuable commodities for sampling and long-term inspections High Pressure Medium/Low Pressure Spool With Stagnant or Low Spot Simulation Double Block Valves – PM’s to Flush

  33. “ Real World View Microbial Management” Physical Observations Water Chemistry 2nd Gen ATP BART’s

  34. We’ll Be Back!

  35. Thanks!
