This invention relates to compositions for the management and treatment of water used for the production of oil and gas products comprising an electro-chemically activated, cation or anion-containing aqueous solution (catholyte or anolyte), and to a system and process for their production. A plant is described for treating water used for petroleum production and products including a water reservoir ( 15 ), a salt feed device ( 19 ) for creating an aqueous salt solution, an electrolysis device ( 21 ) to produce anolyte and catholyte solutions, an anolyte tank ( 31 ), a cation tank ( 32 ) and an anion holding/transport container ( 33 ) from which solution is injected into a petroleum processing, petroleum production enhancement or petroleum product application. |
