Produced water isolated from the oil in oil-gas production is pumped into the injection wells after cleaning from salt deposits and mechanical impurities. In the mixture of high-mineralised produced water, salt deposits making the technological equipment and pipes useless while gathering and transportation, reduce the permeability of injection wells. Carried out experimental researches show that for each ton it is necessary to pump 100 g of KD-7 inhibitor to prevent salt deposition in the mixture of produced water. Technological processes should be performed in a closed system, and the territories contaminated with oil and produced water cleaned and equipped well.

Qatar is one of the major natural gas (NG) producing countries, which has the world’s third-largest NG reserves besides the largest supplier of liquefied natural gas (LNG). Since the produced water (PW) generated in the oil and gas industry is considered as the largest waste stream, cost-effective PW management becomes fundamentally essential. The oil/gas industries in Qatar produce large amounts of PW daily, hence the key challenges facing these industries reducing the volume of PW injected in disposal wells by a level of 50% for ensuring the long-term sustainability of the reservoir. Moreover, it is important to study the characteristics of PW to determine the appropriate method to treat it and then use it for various applications such as irrigation, or dispose of it without harming the environment. This review paper targets to highlight the generation of PW in Qatar, as well as discuss the characteristics of chemical, physical, and biological treatment techniques in detail. These processes and methods discussed are not only applied by Qatari companies, but also by other companies associated or in collaboration with those in Qatar. Finally, case studies from different companies in Qatar and the challenges of treating the PW are discussed. From the different studies analyzed, various techniques as well as sequencing of different techniques were noted to be employed for the effective treatment of PW.
