REX-SU1

REX-SU1 is a unique mixture which is a highly effective inhibitor for wax and corrosion in oilfield structures. It is a single product which maintains the homogeneity of crude as it moves through the production and transportation system. It has an affinity with steel which means that it coats the contact surfaces of pipes, tanks and all plant and equipment with which it comes into contact.

Because the crude is kept in an homogeneous state as it flows it has no opportunity to drop waxes and corrosive matter thereby preventing accumulations of waxes, asphaltenes and preventing corrosion damage. Application is by low level injection as far upstream as possible so that the effects of the treatment can pass right the way through the system.

Existing wax build up is gradually reduced as the REX-SU1 migrates along the contact surfaces. The removal of waxes and sludges overcomes the problems of dead spots where SRBs can normally thrive.

By removing blockages in pipelines and sludge build up in storage tanks, productivity is immediately improved without expensive down time and the reduction of problems associated with corrosion avoid costly maintenance programmes.

REX-SU1 and its predecessors have been demonstrably and successfully used in Canada, UAE, Kazakhstan, Thailand, Indonesia and elsewhere over the past 20 years.
