Abstract: A floating water evaporation system for use in disposing of excess water from oil and gas drilling operations is provided. One or more nozzle arrays float on the surface of a wastewater pond a distance away from the pond shoreline. Each nozzle array includes a series of upright risers that extend above a water reservoir tank. Spray nozzles are mounted on each riser. The water reservoir tank is mounted between floating pontoons that elevate the nozzles a distance above the surface of the pond. Water from the pond is pumped through the nozzles to create a patterned spray of small evaporable droplets.

Abstract: A water evaporation system and method for disposing of excess water left over from oil or gas drilling, fracturing, and production operations and from other wastewater producing operations. The system comprises a pumping system for pumping the wastewater from a pond through a filtration system and then to one or more nozzle arrays attached to cables suspended over the pond.

Abstract: A windscreen system for use in water abatement systems such as that found in oil and gas drilling operations. The windscreen system comprises a plurality of independently portable and mountable ten foot wide sections that stand side by side about three feet apart. Each section comprises top and bottom mesh screens secured to a rigid frame that is held in a vertical position by support braces. Relatively narrow screens are hung between the rigid frames to form a continuous windscreen system.
