#1 Also economical. Some areas do not have a grand supply of readily available water, and hauling water from a site to a cleaning facility is costly, along with vehicle wear and tear and the inevitable accidents associated with road travel.

If they figure out a way to treat water on or near site, that is big stuff.

#2 You mean: Evil capitalists, in order to increase their filthy profits, went and cleaned up the environment?

#3 Nah, grom; water's scarce & expensive at a lot of fracking locations & recycling it is more profitable. Except for the local water suppliers. (And I am only partly being facecious.)

#4 That's absolutely right, could have an impact on the landowner - driller negotiations: water rights, terraforming and road construction.

I'd think that even if the lease costs ended up being the same the drillers would still save money on less maintenence, gas, labor, insurance.

Cheaper energy, reduced recovery costs, happy landowners - everyone wins. But Komrads, recjoice equally! Obviously the solution is the nationalize all water sources and put an end to this, because industry and affordable energy is racist.
