Instead of going to the expense of hauling off OB cuttings…
While drilling, simply have your solids control service company spread the cuttings in the reserve pit for remediation instead paying for loading out trucks and hauling to disposal. All-Clean Technologies can arrive on site as soon as the rig moves, complete remediation, and be done before the frac equipment moves in.

Turn time is normally one day per well. A five well OB job will usually require 3-5 days to remediate. A three well OB job will usually require 1-3 days.

After our environmental process is completed, soil samples of the remediated OB cuttings from the reserve pit will be obtained.

Soil samples of the remediated OB cuttings from the reserve pit are remanded to a 3rd party laboratory and tested for TPH (Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon).

Once samples are received by the lab, results are normally back in three to four business days.

The reserve pit can be closed/backfilled anytime thereafter.

The lab report can be added to your well file.

Q: What about the TXRRC requirements? Don’t we have to haul off our OB cuttings?
A: Absolutely not! According to the TXRRC SW Rule 8.3, OB cuttings and associated drilling fluids can be placed in the reserve pit. We do not recommend burying the cuttings without removing the diesel from the cuttings first and here is the reason. The diesel can be wicked from the cuttings all the way back to the surface with a good rain even when deep buried. If this occurs, it will be classified as a spill and everything buried in the reserve pit will be required to be excavated and disposed of. This could potentially cost your company well over $1 million.
Q: How does All-Clean’s technology work?
A: Our chemistry is specifically engineered to destroy diesel on OB cuttings, virtually on contact. While our competitors typically use surfactants (soap) which only remove the oil from the surface of the cuttings, then, immediately sinks the diesel to the bottom of the reserve pit, All-Clean Technologies uses a safe and effective enzyme-based product that destroys diesel in a very short time. (See the study conducted by Texas A&M on our All-Clean 100)
Q: Can All-Clean Technologies remediate OB drill cuttings to 1% TPH (Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon) or below?
A: Yes, we can remediate to 1% or below TPH and we do it fast by destroying the diesel.
Q: How long has All-Clean Technologies been in business?
A: We have been saving our customers’ money for over 25 years in all drill areas throughout Texas.
Q: How many wells have you remediated in that time frame?
A: All-Clean Technologies has successfully remediated over 5,000 wells.
Q: Do you remediate before or after the frac?
A: Although we prefer before the frac, we can accommodate whichever is best for your operations.
Q: Is there anything special we have to do to our pit before starting remediation?
A: The only things we need are: 1) Access for the excavator around the reserve pit. 2) The cuttings spread in the pit, not stacked in a pile. Spreading can easily be accomplished with the solids control trackhoe during the drilling process. 3) Enough fresh water in the pit to completely submerge the cuttings below the water’s surface.
