The reimagined 6th Annual Oilfield Water Markets Conference will take place on May 5-6, 2026, at the Irving Convention Center. Senior executives will gather to discuss critical action items in Lower 48 produced water, including business model evolution, competitive landscape, capital, regulations, infrastructure trends, and future risks and opportunities. Delegates will include top E&Ps, water midstream professionals, water service and logistics providers, equipment suppliers, data providers, investors, regulators, landowners, and other stakeholders in the oilfield water marketplace.

We’re transforming the spacious ground-level Exhibit Hall at the Irving Convention Center into the heart of the action! Sponsors, showcase your brand with trailer-mounted displays, parked right next to your booth in the Exhibit Hall, to captivate and impress attendees.
New dedicated networking spaces in the Exhibit Hall will spark connections, foster collaboration, and create unforgettable moments for attendees and sponsors alike.
We’re adding two breakout stages in the Exhibit Hall to offer more focused small group sessions, letting attendees customize their experience beyond the Main Stage.
Say goodbye to predictable plated lunches! On the first full day, explore a variety of sponsor-hosted food and beverage stations in the Exhibit Hall. Savor diverse flavors while mingling with sponsors, speakers, and fellow attendees.
The Exhibit Hall will buzz with excitement! From axe-throwing trailers to cornhole and putting greens, fun activities will keep the energy high. We are bringing pickleball courts INTO THE CONVENTION CENTER for the May 6th tournament right next to the exhibits. Best networking you’ve ever experienced at any event!
These bold changes will break the mold of the standard conference format, delivering a dynamic, memorable experience that’ll have everyone talking for months. Connect with customers and partners in fresh, exciting ways!
You can save some money on rental cars, parking, or Uber by jumping on the DART System from the airport (DFW or Love Field) and make your way to the Irving Convention Center Station. From there, it is a short walk to the Irving Convention Center, Westin, or Texican Court. Learn more here.

Prominent thought leaders, CEOs, and analysts will take the stage to share unparalleled insight on the trends that matter most for commerce in this sector.
