Summary Summary Scale-Deposition
Based on the changes in pressures, pH, temperatures and the amount of dissolved solids in your produced water, there is an inherent risk of mineral deposits forming on the surfaces of your entire production system.
Summary Summary Flow-Assurance-Engineering
With the immense investments and logistics necessary to operate in deepwater, it is imperative to know that everything in and around your system is working at its peak performance.
Summary Summary Deepwater-Challenges
At Multi-Chem, we understand the significance of your investments in deepwater and don’t take our participation in your success lightly. As a true offshore partner, we provide continuous monitoring and analysis to clearly diagnose issues, and provide chemical solutions in the right proportions to effectively resolve your challenges.
Summary Summary Asphaltene-Instability
In deepwater, changes in pressure and temperatures may occur, causing existing asphaltenes to destabilize and precipitate, forming hard black deposits (asphalt) that form in your system and settle in your vessels. These solids can rapidly reduce production flow downhole by creating a choke point with a higher pressure differential.
Summary Summary Water-Quality
The quality of produced water is dependent upon a wide variety of factors, including the presence of solids that can provide surfaces for oil to adhere to, causing high oil content, iron sulfide causing the water to turn black or bacteria causing the water to sour.
Summary Summary Bacteria-Induced-Corrosion
Depending on the flow rates, fluids and bathymetry of your system, water pockets can build in your system, allowing bacteria to form that can potentially produce acids or 2S. If these contaminants begin to corrode your pipeline or dead legs, not only do you run the risk of releasing soured fluids into the environment, but you also face the possible failure of your pipelines and system.
Summary Summary Corrosion-Issues
Due to the variety of acids, pH and metals in produced fluids, every oil and gas field in the world has the potential for corrosion. Corrosion may occur where water and gas are present, and can lead to production challenges.
Summary Summary Emulsion-Tendencies
When water and oil mix, there is an inherent risk of them stabilizing and forming emulsions, creating a viscous mixture in your system that increases friction loss due to the added viscosity of the fluids.
Summary Summary Friction-Reducers
Multi-Chem friction reducers are developed to help with reducing friction in a wide variety of conditions, and can easily be incorporated into other chemical applications, such as oxygen scavengers, scale controllers and bactericides, increasing their overall effectiveness.
Summary Summary Tehnical Challenges
At Multi-Chem everything we offer is formulated and applied to leave as little impact on the environment as possible, while solving your unique completion challenges, improving your overall ROI, and protecting the integrity of your assets for the long-term.
Summary Summary High-Horsepower-Costs
High horsepower requirements greatly increase costs to your frac process. One of the ways that Multi-Chem can help you lower these costs and give you better horsepower efficiency is through the use of our specialty chemical friction reducers.
Summary Summary Reservoir-Souring
As reservoirs age or injection and formation waters co-mingle downhole, the introduction of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) can sour the reservoir, as well as generate H2S, which can lead to corrosion in your well, and health and safety concerns for the community.
Summary Summary Source-Water-Reuse
Water is a vital and key component to every successful frac, and the manner in which it is used can have great affect on the environment. While source water may appear to be stable on the surface, when its transferred, mixed with other chemistries, or pumped under high pressures into hydrocarbon rich reservoirs, it can accumulate contaminants, such as solids, bacteria and H2S, all of which can be detrimental to your production and the environment.
Summary Summary H2S-and-Iron-Sulfide-Frac-Pits
All frac pits have the potential of bacterial contamination. Some of these sulfates and organic materials, if left untreated, can ultimately cause the development of H2S gas.Multi-Chem recognizes the severity of H2S and the pits immediate proximity to the environment and strives to alleviate the existence of contamination before it becomes apparent in source water or is introduced into a frac pit.
Summary Summary Low-Initial-Production
When fracturing, the misuse of additives can often have drastic repercussions on your system, causing low initial production, added expense and potential failure of your well.
Summary Summary Oxygen-Scavengers
Most oxygen corrosion in oilfield metallurgy is caused by the addition of fluids from the surface that have been exposed to air for any length of time. When large quantities of fluids are injected downhole—as they are in fracturing operations, saltwater disposal wells, formation squeezes, or waterflood operations—oxygen can be introduced in significant quantities.
Summary Summary RockOn® Surfactants
Custom RockOn® surfactants from Multi-Chem deliver superior results in the field—higher initial production and greater ultimate recovery for better financial returns over the life of your well. Specifically formulated based on core sample testing, each RockOn solution is custom-tailored to take into account the unique reservoir characteristics, with options to fit your specific environmental requirements.
Summary Summary Frac-Inefficiencies
Unwanted friction can be a big problem with modern machinery, and pipelines are no different. When fluid is forced to flow in a pipe, its center flows faster than its sides, thereby causing friction along the walls of the pipe.
Summary Summary Compressor-Issues
The overall performance of your compressor in oil and gas production is a vital component of production. As gas or oil is pulled down and compressed, particulate matter can foul your system, reducing your flow and potentially push you to the limits of your surge line.
Summary Summary Scale-Deposits
Based on the changes in pressures, pH and temperature and the amount of dissolved solids in your produced water, there is an inherent risk of mineral deposits forming on the surfaces of your pipes and equipment. For example, some minerals may appear soluble downhole, but as they are brought to the surface, they can begin to produce scale, such as calcium carbonite, calcium sulfate and barium sulfate, potentially increasing your operating expenses, decreasing or stopping the flow of fluids and causing premature equipment failure and fouling.
Summary Summary Asphaltene-Tendencies
Changes in pressure and temperatures may occur throughout the production process, causing existing asphaltenes to destabilize and precipitate, forming hard black deposits (asphalt) in your pipelines. These solids can rapidly reduce production flow or produce plugs that completely block your pipeline, shutting down production.

Summary Summary Off-Spec-Sales-Gas
Hydrogen sulfide is a naturally occurring gas that may be present in formations and carried in hydrocarbon streams, or can form as a result of sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) that are present in your process system. In some cases, the presence of H2S can greatly affect the heating value of the gas, making it difficult to sell, due to strict requirements regarding the energy content of gas.
Summary Summary Failures_Leaks
In oil and gas systems, the inorganic mineral components of produced waters often become supersaturated and precipitate out-of-solution to form deposits on the inner walls of your pipeline, restricting or stopping the flow of fluids and corroding the pipe walls. As the corrosion process develops, it can generate iron solids, causing further pipeline failures and leaks, poor water quality and a significant reduction of the useful life of your asset.
