Steve,
we have talked before briefly about the possibility of pigging the lines. Several people here I mentioned it to had never heard of pigging water injection lines.
I was hoping some chemical engineers with experience couuld offer assistance on a question about scale/schmoo. I am working in a oil field to determine the best recipie to clean our main water injection lines which have been restricted over the years. A chemical analysis on the stuff shows that...
I have previously posted about a intern project I am working on to determine the best recipie to clean our main water injection lines which have been restricted over the years. A chemical analysis on the stuff shows that it is:
Hydrocarbons: 10%
Soluble salts: 1.40%
Calcium carbonates: .84%...
To be honest I really have no experience in the field yet. I just changed majors less than a year ago so every piece of advice helps. Our sources are production water and also water from a nearby river. Right now we are treating the water with chlorine dioxide, but that began just 2 months ago...
My name is Brian and I am a first time intern this summer. I have been given a project that involves adressing some problems our water injection system has. We have close to 500 injection wells. Some of our lines are having problems due to line restriction from scale. I was wondering what the...
