Applications

01

Remediation

Iron sulfide (“gummy bear”) remediation and acidizing: clearing deposits and stimulating wells to restore flow.

02

Completions

A full suite of completion chemistries, including biocides and iron control, that keep fluids clean and protect the formation.

03

Production

A full suite of production chemistries, including biocides and iron control, for bacteria, scale, corrosion and H2S.

04

Produced Water Recycling

Raises filtration capacity, clarity and flocculation in produced water recycling, with fewer settled solids and more robust H2S control.

05

Saltwater Disposal

Prevents fouling to improve injection, protects pumps from solids and removes iron from recovered oil to avoid off-spec deductions.

06

Degumming

Removes phosphorus and metals from the feedstock oils used by biodiesel, renewable diesel and SAF producers.

07

Corrosion Inhibition

Protects mild steel, galvanized steel and aluminum from corrosion, and strengthens standard azoles and scale inhibitors in industrial water.

08

Concrete

Organic acids used in concrete admixtures as water reducers, lowering the water a mix needs to stay workable.
