Functions

In the oil and gas industries, there's only one way to keep your edge - innovation. Navigate through our functions to find a novel solution to your oil and gas challenges.

Our Functions

Asphaltene Dispersants

Asphaltene precipitation deep inside the reservoir, in pipelines or onto safety equipment can cause blockages and severe emulsion formation resulting in reservoir damage, loss of crude oil recovery and escalating costs.

Cleaning Fluids

The oil industry must constantly stay on top of equipment and rig cleaning to maintain high safety and environmental standards alongside efficient oil production. Our cost-effective clean-up solutions that minimize downtime offer a broad range of cleaning agents designed to leave your equipment and pipelines pristine.

Corrosion Inhibition

Our superior corrosion inhibitor range offers both oil and water-soluble products and collectively boasts the following features: Robust film-forming characteristics, suitable for various metallurgies, excellent stability over a range of pH and temperature values, high electrolyte tolerance, improved lubricity and low dosage capabilities.

Defoamers

We have developed a novel range of polymeric surfactant defoamers that reduce and hinder the formation of foam.

Demulsifier Intermediates

To facilitate the economical removal of water from crude oil, we can offer demulsifier intermediates that are drawn from a wide range of chemistries, including resin alkoxylates, polyimine derivatives and modified polyols.

Dispersants

Our dispersants are designed for the wetting, dispersion and fluidisation of solid particles in non-aqueous systems. This chemistry offers many benefits over conventional oil-based dispersants such as the ability to fluidise oil-based drilling muds without dilution and the capability to maintain high mud densities.

Emulsifiers

Our broad portfolio of emulsifiers are classified by chemistry, function and HLB to help identify the most appropriate emulsifier for individual applications.

Foamers

Optimizing foam control formulations can be difficult. We have developed highly flexible and environmentally friendly foamers that can be tailor made to match your operational needs.

Lubricants

We have a longstanding history in the development of state of the art lubricants for a variety of industries and applications. We are committed to providing our customers with tailor made solutions to complement their requirements and to offer formulation advice and support.

Non-Emulsifiers

Our technology allows your completion, stimulation and production operations to run smoothly, maximising your yields and improving costs.

Paraffin Inhibitors

Challenges in both production and transportation of crude oils include wax deposition, flow problems and gelling, which are most evident in subsea and deep water operations. Our range of cold flow improvers use advanced technology to prevent wax flow assurance problems.

Thinners

We have a long-standing experience in drilling fluid development, and strives to provide our customers with the best solutions for their drilling fluid formulations. Our thinners benefit from: stablity under high temperature and pressure conditions, excellent viscosity control and effective flow control under high salinity conditions.

Viscosifiers

One of our unique areas of expertise and strengths lies within viscosity control. Based on a fundamental understanding of fluid properties under shear, stress and changing temperatures, we have developed superior products to control the flow behaviour of fluids.

Wetting Agents

We have developed a ground-breaking range of wetting agents in addition to our oil wetting agents, that significantly reduce the surface tension of liquids allowing effortless spreading and superior wetting.
