Composite Piping Technology (CPT) is pleased to announce that B.G. Clark, President and CEO, will join an expert panel of industry leaders at the 8th Annual Oilfield Water Industry Update, hosted by the Oilfield Water Connection, November 3, 2026, at The Houstonian in Houston, Texas.
Session Details
- Date: Tuesday, November 3, 2026
- Time: 11:05 AM
- Location: The Houstonian, Houston, Texas
- Topic: “Untapped Opportunities in Produced Water Panel”
About the Panel
As produced water volumes across the Permian Basin keep climbing, operators and midstream companies face a growing challenge: moving that water farther than ever before. Tightening disposal capacity, rising reservoir pressure and seismicity-related injection limits are pushing water away from the producing core, driving demand for long-haul pipelines and out-of-basin disposal routes. Every added mile of transport brings added cost, more installation time, and more pumping to maintain pressure and flow across the basin’s sprawling footprint.
MaxDR®’s lightweight construction helps lower that cost. Because MaxDR uses less HDPE material, it is typically less expensive than competing alternatives. The pipe’s thinner wall means it fuses twice as fast as standard HDPE poly pipe while using standard fusing equipment. A lighter pipe also means it is easier to handle and install over long runs, operators can build out water infrastructure faster.
During this session, B.G. will share how MaxDR – the world’s first high-pressure, large-diameter, fusible composite poly pipe – is helping the industry rethink what’s possible with poly pipe infrastructure.
Attendees can expect a candid discussion on:
- What “a measurable difference in performance and value” looks like in the field.
- How MaxDR’s patented design converts conventional HDPE pipe into a higher-pressure-capable product, without the added cost typically associated with pressure upgrades.
- The performance and economic advantages of fusible composite pipe over traditional materials – lighter weight, lower cost, impervious to corrosion and NORM.
- Real-world applications in water midstream.
About B.G. Clark
B.G. Clark brings more than 35 years of experience in oil & gas services, water infrastructure, and technology commercialization to Composite Piping Technology. Before joining CPT, he served as Chief Development Officer and COO of Streamline Innovations, where he led commercialization of the Valkyrie® H2S treating system. Earlier in his career, B.G. led development of the first full-scale commercial saltwater pipeline and disposal system, and later co-founded and led Water Midstream Partners — the Oil & Gas industry’s first dedicated commercial saltwater pipeline and disposal system serving the Permian Basin.
About Composite Piping Technology
Composite Piping Technology is the developer of MaxDR®, the first large-diameter, high-pressure, fusible composite poly pipe, manufactured at CPT’s facility in Kilgore, Texas. MaxDR delivers 2x to 3x higher pressure capabilities than conventional HDPE pipe while supporting lower capital costs and shorter fuse times.
