Halliburton Co.
Water dependencyLow
Halliburton Co. is an energy services firm based in the United States that supplies drilling, completion, production, and reservoir technologies to oil and gas operators around the world. Customers control the purchase of water at well sites, but Halliburton oversees water use at its owned and leased facilities, where conservation efforts are directed toward maximizing operational efficiency, reusing wastewater, eliminating leaks, and reducing landscape watering.
One example of water stewardship is at Halliburton's Indonesian facilities, where the real estate team installed tanks to capture and treat domestic wastewater as an alternative to treating it as a waste stream. The treated water is used for irrigation, with metering installed to track the resulting water savings, thus leveraging wastewater treatment and reducing the need for freshwater used for landscaping.
Meanwhile, at 16 of its locations in 2024, Halliburton used location data and a variety of standardized reduction kits to pinpoint opportunities such as auxiliary process use, domestic consumption, and irrigation. It employed leak detection, replacement or upgrades of older water-consuming equipment, drought-resistant and xeriscaped landscaping, and water recycling and reclamation systems.
