Oilfield scale & corrosion control

Start with the fluid, the asset and the mechanism that puts reliability at risk.

Oilfield scale & corrosion control — illustrative application contextIllustrative application context
01 / THE CHALLENGE

Understand the duty before the treatment.

Produced fluids and changing water chemistry can create distinct scale and corrosion concerns. These need separate diagnostics and clearly scoped treatment evaluations.

Conditions that shape the decision

  • Brine composition, fluid ratios and source changes
  • Metallurgy, flow conditions and operating envelope
  • Deposit analysis, corrosion history and injection arrangement
02 / THE APPROACH

Define the mechanism. Scope the evaluation.

Identify the probable mechanism, then agree a relevant screening method. High-salinity scale inhibition and water-soluble corrosion inhibition are different duties with different evidence needs.

01

Scale control

FORVEN SI 420 is a high salinity scale inhibitor candidate in development. Brine analysis and the scaling mechanism guide suitability assessment.

02

Corrosion control

FORVEN CI 410 is a water soluble corrosion inhibitor candidate in development. Metallurgy, fluid conditions and monitoring determine the evaluation scope.
