What type of water treatment issue do you need to solve?
EOR can impact your overall produced water cycle in a number of ways. Our experts can help provide the solutions.
Problem 1: Production additives are reducing EOR performance
How we solve this:
- We evaluate the impact of production chemicals on EOR chemical performance through compatibility tests (Visual, Turbiscan) and efficiency tests (viscosity, solubility ratio, IFT, core flood experiments).
Problem 2: EOR chemicals are impacting the topside production processes
How we solve this:
- We evaluate the impact on gravity and electrostatic separator efficiency (bottle tests, EST tests; dispersion rig, phase analysis by optical microscopy, etc.).
- We measure the impact on water treatment efficiency (Jar-tests, flotation, centrifugation and membrane filtration).
Problem 3: EOR chemicals are creating production well challenges
How we solve this:
- Risk assessment on microbiological activity (souring enhancement risk, etc.).
- We measure impact on corrosion (electrochemical corrosion tests, weight loss measurements).
- We look at compatibility with polymeric materials compatibility (size & weight measurements, mechanical tensile tests).
- Monitoring fluid rheological behavior (controlled stress rheometer,,extensional rheological properties, etc.).
Problem 4: Repercussions from using produced water as a water source
How we solve this:
- We measure impact on EOR chemical performance through compatibility tests and efficiency tests (viscosity, solubility ratio, IFT, injectivity, core flood).
- We examine the potential impact of filtration-cake on EOR chemicals degradation.
