The fast-evolving competitive landscape presents abundant opportunities and risks for oilfield water managers and companies. Building on the success of our past events, this conference gathered business leaders from E&P companies, oilfield water midstream, water service companies, information providers, investors, regulators, landowners, and other stakeholders in the oilfield water marketplace to discuss trends that drive value.
