Reduced fouling and scaling in the oil and gas industry

Chemical-free cleaning and prevention to reach Zero Process Downtime

THE PROBLEM: FOULING COSTS BIG MONEY AND HAS NEGATIVE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

 

Fouling of industrial equipment is one of the biggest issues in the oil & gas industry. It causes lost production time and increased energy use throughout the whole value chain from upstream production to transportation and refining. The traditional way to remove fouling is mechanical washing, often in combination with toxic chemicals.

Many applications in the oil & gas industry get fouled continuously. Fouling can be elastic or inelastic, porous or solid and due to these differences in fouling types, the cleaning process can be troublesome. Quite often this requires a lengthy stoppage for cleaning, resulting in your plants losing precious production time.

THE BENEFITS YOU GET WITH ALTUM´S ZPD ULTRASONIC TECHNOLOGY INCLUDE:

 

  • Reduce your overall maintenance costs and increase equipment lifetime, since ZPD is gentler and does not attack your equipment like traditional high-pressure water jet cleaning or harsh chemicals that increase the risks for equipment corrosion and weakening
  • Increased production output and process stability
  • Improved safety by reducing the amount of manual cleaning needed
  • Decrease your carbon footprint in the operations by using less energy and chemicals, while running the process at a more optimal level
  • Overall streamlined operations with less headaches
