Introduction

Production Chemistry – OGPC

 

Course Objectives: 

  • Recognize corrosive conditions and monitor corrosion rates
  • Select and apply corrosion inhibitors
  • Predict and treat emulsions
  • Understand causes and control of foaming
  • Predict scale forming conditions
  • Select and apply scale inhibitors
  • Control gas hydrate formation
  • Predict and control paraffin (wax) deposition
  • Evaluate methods for asphaltene control
  • Scavenge low concentrations of H2S
  • Select and apply water clarifiers
  • Select chemicals for use in deep water
  • Select environmentally friendly chemicals

Who Should Attend:

Production engineers, facilities engineers, chemists, and technicians involved with production systems from the wellbore through the topside production equipment, transmission pipelines, and storage facilities who are responsible for recognizing and treating problems which might require treatment chemicals.
