Oil & Gas Production Chemistry
Introduction:
This course covers the selection and use of chemicals used in oil and gas production. As oil fields mature more water is produced which requires the use of more chemicals to maintain production. Chemicals used for controlling corrosion, emulsions, foaming, mineral scales, paraffin (waxes), asphaltenes, gas hydrates, hydrogen sulfide scavengers and water clarifiers are covered. The course includes methods to determine the need for chemical treating, how to select the proper chemicals, and how testing for chemical compatibility with the formation and other chemicals is performed. Requirements for environmentally friendly products and products for deep water production are discussed. The course will include how the use of chemicals can prevent problems, improve production and economics, and extend the life of the well.
Course Objectives:
By the end of this course delegates will be able to:
Who Should Attend?
Production engineers, facility engineers and technicians dealing with well and near well operations, who are responsible for recognizing and treating problems which require chemicals
