Extraction of oil, in particular heavy oils, and bitumen from oil sands requires the use of a significant amount of water, which may include freshly extracted water and treated water. With a limited supply of fresh water resources and the need to expand oil extraction capacity for oil supply, water management becomes increasingly important.
