Alaska – 3 Million Gallons Hydrotest & Water Treatment

Alaska – 3 Million Gallons Hydrotest & Water Treatment

Portfolio Categories: All, Case Studies, and Mobile Water Treatment.

Challenge

A pipeline operator conducting a mandatory hydrotest on the North Slope of Alaska needed to treat and discharge 3,000,000 gallons of hydrotest water in one of the most remote and environmentally sensitive areas in North America.

Located at the end of the seasonal ice roads, the site posed significant logistical and environmental challenges. Transporting the contaminated water off-site would have been extremely costly, time-consuming, and dangerous. The customer required a safe, compliant, and on-site mobile water treatment solution that would allow direct discharge to the tundra without harming the fragile Arctic environment.

Solution

Envent Corporation deployed its mobile water treatment system more than 3,800 miles to the remote job site, arriving before seasonal access expired due to thawing conditions. The system was engineered to remove:

  • Total Suspended Solids (TSS)

  • Turbidity

  • Oil & Grease (O&G)

  • Nephelometric Turbidity Units (NTU)

  • Other trace toxic contaminants

Envent’s temporary water treatment system achieved levels well below effluent discharge limitations, enabling direct, compliant discharge into the barren Alaskan tundra.

Benefit

Envent’s engineered mobile water treatment solution protected one of America’s last frontiers from contamination while allowing the pipeline company to complete critical pipeline integrity testing without delay.

By avoiding the need for off-site disposal, the client realized substantial cost savings and eliminated the risks associated with long-distance transportation of contaminated water. This project demonstrated Envent’s unmatched ability to deliver environmentally responsible, cost-effective, and fully compliant water treatment solutions in extreme and remote locations.

Protected America's last frontier while minimizing costs.
