Agenda
▪ Introduction
▪ Trial objective
▪ Collaboration
▪ Results
▪ Learnings & conclusions
3
Manchester Ship Canal
▪ 36 mile waterway linking Manchester to the
Irish Sea
▪ Construction started 1887 at cost of £15m
– estimated to be £1.65 billion in 2011
▪ Opened by HM Queen Victoria in 1894
▪ Immediately became the largest river
navigation canal in the world
▪ Acquired by Peel in 1987
4
MSC Water Trial Objective
▪ Safe abstraction, processing, storage and
discharge of water from the Manchester
Ship Canal (MSC) at appropriate quality,
rate and quantity for industrial use –
including hydraulic fracturing
5
MSC Water Trial Objective
Collaboration:
▪ Peel: Project sponsor, land, canal & water owner
▪ Alcumus: Safety / risk assessment
▪ Selwood: Pumps, hoses
▪ Rain for Rent: Filtration and Storage
▪ Atg uv: Water UV treatment & bacterial analysis
▪ GroundGas Solutions: Trial operator & scientific
analysis

Key Results: Lab Analysis
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons
▪ Below Limits of detection (LOD)
▪ Pyrene detected at 0.013 µg/l
Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (PH) and
BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene
and ‘xylenes’)
▪ Below LOD
Chloride
▪ 600~3500 mg/l due to salinity
introduced through canal lock
pH
▪ 7.4 – 7.7
TSS and TDS
▪ No change from process
Aluminium
▪ Av 77% reduction after processing
Iron
▪ Av 64% reduction
Zinc
▪ Av 67% reduction
NORM
▪ All below LOD
17
Key Results: Microbiology
▪ Excellent log scale reduction in bacterial
counts from filtration and uv treatment
▪ Particularly for SRBs
▪ Filtration alone reduces bacterial counts but
major effect is in combination with uv
▪ Can consider biocide reduction or removal
18
Learnings and Conclusions
Trial positives
▪ Safety and operations
▪ Successful process for industrial water
usage
▪ Effective bacterial reduction
▪ High water quality production
▪ Excellent collaboration
▪ Water can be stored for upto 3 days
without quality deterioration
Further considerations
▪ Reduce filtration?
▪ Longer time period
▪ Longer static water storage
19
MSC water trial successfully proved that water
from the canal can be used
for industrial purposes – including providing
water for hydraulic fracturing without the
need for expensive potable water connections or
water trucking and potentially with no
added biocides
