How long a Drag reducing agent is used to clean a pipe? DRA in Pipe Maintenance The duration for which a drag-reducing agent (DRA) is used in pipe cleaning depends on several factors, including the type of pipeline, the nature of the fluid being transported, the degree of fouling or buildup, the specific DRA used,… Continue reading How long a Drag reducing agent is used to clean a pipe?
What is the difference between a friction reducer and a flow improver in the oil industry?
What is the difference between a friction reducer and a flow improver in the oil industry? Friction reducers and flow improvers are additives used to improve oil flow in wells and pipelines. However, there are some important differences between the two. Friction reducers work by reducing the friction between the oil and the well or pipe wall. This is done by forming a… Continue reading What is the difference between a friction reducer and a flow improver in the oil industry?
Why does corrosion occur in an oil well?
Why does corrosion occur in an oil well? Corrosion in an oil well can happen for several reasons, including: Exposure to corrosive substances Oil wells often contain substances that are corrosive, such as hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, and other acidic gases, which can cause corrosion of the well casing and production tubing. These substances can… Continue reading Why does corrosion occur in an oil well?
