There is currently significant concern in some segments of the public about the potential impact of shale gas exploitation on water. By taking a more holistic approach to local water management, these concerns can be addressed and appropriate water infrastructure can be created which benefits local communities and the environment as well as making gas development safer and more sustainable. Concepture, along with its commercial partners WSP and academic partners Imperial College London, the University of Surrey and Cardiff University, are undertaking a study of an innovative new water management system which monitors and controls the quality of water across the locality where fracking operations are under way. Part of the management system is developed on behalf of local communities and can also be used for other freshwater services, such as flood prevention. The other part is dedicated to controlling the quality of water within a shale gas site and intended for use by the gas industry. Both systems are controlled by a 'smart' central control system, taking into account the overall needs of a catchment area and the prevailing water conditions.

目前，部分公众非常关注页岩气开采对水资源的潜在影响。通过对当地水管理采取更全面的方法，可以解决这些问题，并建立适当的水基础设施，使当地社区和环境受益，并使天然气开发更安全、更可持续。Concepture与其商业合作伙伴WSP、学术合作伙伴伦敦帝国理工学院、萨里大学和卡迪夫大学正在进行一项创新的水管理系统的研究，该系统可以监测和控制正在进行水力压裂作业的整个地区的水质。管理系统的一部分是代表当地社区开发的，也可用于其他淡水服务，如防洪。另一部分用于控制页岩气场地内的水质，供天然气工业使用。这两个系统都由一个“智能”中央控制系统控制，考虑到集水区的整体需求和当前的水条件。
