Introduction Most oilfield operators focus on visible corrosion, but what if the real threat is microscopic? Microbial Induced Corrosion (MIC) silently damages infrastructure, costing millions. Understanding MIC Unlike typical corrosion caused by environmental factors, MIC is triggered by microorganisms such as bacteria and archaea that thrive in oilfield conditions. Why It Matters MIC weakens pipelines, […]
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 […]
Introduction You might think your reservoir is stable, but changes in injection water or microbial activity can lead to souring—and H2S is no joke. What is Reservoir Souring? It’s the production of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) by sulfate-reducing bacteria due to injected seawater or nutrient changes. The Impact H2S is toxic and corrosive Increases operational costs […]
