Foamers

Details

To overcome liquid loading conditions without having to invest additional capital in the well is something many producers require. One of the best solutions for this is a surfactant that reduces the density of the fluid and allows it to be removed by the well’s natural reservoir pressure. These specialty surfactants from Water Technologies & Solutions are commonly called foamers. Our foamers cause the liquids and gas production to form a weak foam that travels up the well tubing to the surface, where it breaks apart into liquid and gas, without additional treatment.

Water Technologies & Solutions’ foamers allow a well to produce for an additional period that may be months or years, depending on the reservoir. This curtailment of additional investment in the well allows producing companies to enhance production and revenue, generating cash flow and profit at a reduced cost.

Certain Water Technologies & Solutions’ formulations may have additional functionality, such as providing corrosion protection, scale inhibition, and hydrate inhibition. Each of our ProSolv MF (multi-functional) products is designed with your production conditions in mind, allowing you to produce and protect your well with one product and one application point.

You can get the results you need including:

• Improved and stabilized hydrocarbon production
• Trouble free operations
• Reduction of corrosion, scale and hydrate issues
• Improved life of system tubing
• Enhanced value from your investment without additional equipment needs

Today, pipelines are stressed to achieve enhanced throughput with reduced investments in capital and risk mitigation programs. These pipelines are pumped continuously, accommodating erroneous behavior and raising operational risk factors. As a consequence, operators must work closely with suppliers to ensure that the most serious threats to their operations have been considered and a proper mitigation strategy is in place.

Corrosion rates are highest on the list in terms of likelihood to occur and consequence of a related failure. Water Technologies & Solutions can help by providing a comprehensive review of your pipeline system to identify the issues and provide an economic solution.

By properly assessing the pipeline, implementing the right chemical solutions, and continuously monitoring critical factors, corrosion risk can be reduced to acceptable levels. Water Technologies & Solutions can help with:

• Early detection of factors that increase the likelihood of corrosion
• Reduction in failures and leaks, which can result in environmental damage, fines and system shutdowns
• Reduction in bacterial-related issues that cause system-wide damage and blockages
