Sažetak
Many of the materials and wastes associated with drilling and production activities have the potential to impact the environment. These wastes include hydrocarbons, solids contaminated with hydrocarbons, water contaminated with a variety of dissolved and suspended solids, and different types of chemicals. While some of wastes can have significant adverse effects on the environment, some have little impact, and others are actually beneficial. The potential impact depends primarily on the material, its concentration after release, and the biotic community that is exposed. In virtually all cases, the adverse impact can be minimized or eliminated through the implementation of proper waste management. This paper describes processes that generate wastes, types of waste (primary and associated wastes), toxicity and environmental impact, and waste management activities.
