Acids play a critical role in various processes within oil and gas production, offering effective solutions for well maintenance, scale removal, and equipment cleanup. Products like KCL-8001, SCW, and WellStim exemplify their diverse applications in enhancing operational efficiency and maintaining well integrity.
KCL-8001 is a specialised liquid product designed to replace bagged potassium chloride (KCl) in oil and gas production environments. It serves as an essential additive in controlling clay swelling and stabilising shale formations during drilling and completion operations. KCL-8001‘s liquid form facilitates easier handling and mixing, ensuring optimal performance in wellbore applications.
SCW products feature a range of organic acids and scale removers, including hydrochloric acids, tailored for cleaning oil and gas wells, water injection systems, and surface equipment. These products effectively dissolve scale deposits and corrosion residues, restoring operational efficiency and prolonging equipment lifespan.
WellStim products include innovative biodegradable acid replacement systems and specialised formulations like 15% hydrochloric acid (HCl). These solutions are designed to remove acid-soluble scale and other materials that hinder production flow. They provide a safe and efficient method for maintaining production rates and enhancing reservoir productivity.
Acids such as those found in KCL-8001 and WellStim products improve well performance by mitigating formation damage, enhancing permeability, and optimising flow rates. They are essential in maintaining clean and efficient wellbores, which is crucial for sustained production.
SCW products excel in scale removal and corrosion control, preventing buildup that can impede fluid flow and equipment functionality. Regular application of these acids ensures operational reliability and reduces maintenance costs associated with scale-related issues.
Our acid formulations used in oil and gas production are designed to ensures compliance with regulatory standards while minimising the environmental impact of production operations.
Acids are indispensable tools in oil and gas production, offering versatile solutions for well maintenance, scale removal, and equipment cleanup. Products like KCL-8001, SCW acids, and WellStim formulations exemplify their efficacy in optimising production processes and ensuring the longevity of oil and gas assets.
Product and customer insights
Despite numerous cleanings, the productivity of the Reverse Osmosis plant would not recover from severe membrane fouling. The membrane autopsy revealed that the ferric hydroxide was seeding
silica polymerization and that even while the ferric hydroxide was removed, the silica scaling was continuing to grow.
The plant was experiencing weekly shutdowns for fiber clean up (~ 3 kg bags of matted slurry is cleaned per week). The shut downs were costly as they reduce plant availability for production.
The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) regulation, known as IMO 2020 was the the largest change in regulation relating to marine fuels impacting 75% of the fuel used by the shipping industry.
Keeping drilling costs low using Redi-Guard™ High Performance, an ecologically friendly drilling fluid technology with revolutionary rheological and shale encapsulation properties
AWC A-110 effectively inhibited scale at a dosage of 3.5 ppm and an operating pH of 6.9. This increase in operating pH reduced the district’s annual acid consumption by ~$350K per year based on their current production.
Research indicates that Sea Buckthorn may be able to strengthen the immune system. One in vitro study focused on the possible immunomodulatory properties of Sea Buckthorn.
MCI® -2020 V/O and ChemMaster’s Colorsil were chosen to repair and protect the walls based on their 20 year warranties and the fact that together they could fulfill the other specified repair design requirements.
The East Hokkaido region is known to have the highest volume of potato product in Japan. Unfortunately, a potato farmer in the area was experiencing a high rate of potato scab infection in his agricultural field.
