We optimise production safely

5 Common Flow Assurance Challenges and How to Solve Them

Introduction
Flow problems don’t just slow production—they can stop it altogether. Understanding the issues early saves money and time.

1. Wax Deposition
As temperatures drop, wax solidifies and clogs pipelines. Evasil mitigates this using thermal modeling and chemical inhibitors.

2. Hydrate Formation
Hydrates block flow in high-pressure, low-temperature systems. We use hydrate prediction tools and operational controls to prevent them.

3. Asphaltene Flocking
These heavy molecules clump together and coat internal surfaces. Evasil’s lab simulates these conditions to determine proper dispersants.

4. Scale Build-Up
Inorganic salts form blockages in production lines. Evasil predicts scaling using proprietary software and suggests treatment options.

5. Emulsion Issues
Unstable water-oil mixtures reduce efficiency. Our team identifies demulsifiers tailored to your fluid properties.
