Produced water handling has become one of the central concerns for the oil and gas industry today. Produce water (water cut) increases as the field grows old, which brings the additional handling cost to the project. The additional expense could be in terms of lifting cost, treatment, maintenance, tubular scaling, corrosion problems, bacteria, naturally occurring radioactive material and
