Opportunities To Reach Produced Water Decision Makers In The Heart Of 2027 Planning Season Are Going Fast…

Top executives are joining the produced water industry’s two premier fall events. You still have a chance to reach them…

On calendar for the rest of 2026 there are just two premium conferences where oilfield water industry executives will gather to discuss industry trends, network, and prepare their businesses for 2027.

5th Annual Marcellus Shale Water Business Update in Pittsburgh on October 20th showcases the latest trends shaping the Appalachian produced water sector.
8th Annual Oilfield Water Industry Update in Houston on November 3rd focuses on Permian and Southwest basin produced water trends, enabling face-to-face networking for executives and investors in one of the most prestigious venues in Texas – The Houstonian.

The agenda has been posted for the Marcellus event and the Houstonian event agenda will be released soon.

These events have a strong history of bringing together some of the sectors’ biggest executives. High profile sponsorships also typically sell out well in advance, and this year is shaping up to be no different.

Just this week, WaterBridge sponsored the Houston conference and EQT sponsored the Pittsburgh event. They join dozens more top firms already signed up.

Confirmed sponsors for the Marcellus event include: Keytstone Clearwater Solutions, EQT, Tetra, Core Linepipe, Gas Field Services, LLC, Composite Piping Technology, Babst Calland, Hydroedge Solutions, Civil & Environmental Consultants, Fit For Purpose 2100 LLC, Select, Marcellus Logistics Group, The Power Connection, Infill Thinking, and The Petroleum Connection.

Confirmed sponsors for the Houston event include: Keystone Clearwater Solutions, WaterBridge, O’Melveny, Composite Piping Technology, K&L Gates, Permian Oilfield Partners, RWI, Core Linepipe, IP Filtration, B3 Insight, Tetra, The Power Connection, Infill Thinking, and The Petroleum Connection.

Together the events are expected to draw several hundred senior executives, feature cutting edge business topic agendas, and prestigious networking opportunities.

Remaining sponsorships are going quickly, but for Pittsburgh interested firms can still exhibit or book the program sponsorship. For Houston, the available options still include reception, kick-off, notebook, or exhibiting sponsorships.
