Businesses involved in the oil and gas sector and in production of fossil fuels are coming under ever increasing scrutiny in terms of their efficiency, productivity and carbon footprint. The industry faces severe pressure from Governments, eco campaigners, the media and shareholders to comply with stiff net zero GHG emission targets.
Oil and gas companies spend hundreds of millions of dollars every year on reactive maintenance and cleaning, and face ‘tough-to-combat’ inefficiencies due to the resultant production downtime it causes.
Biofilms in pipelines can reduce flow rates, lead to pressure drops and exasperate the growth of sulfate producing bacteria that in turn produce corrosive H₂S gas
Sonicguard has developed a suite of ultrasonic antifouling products designed specifically for the oil and gas industry, tackling head on the challenges it faces on with biofouling and scaling.
Our ultrasonic transducer systems are designed to combat marine biofouling in:-
- Plate and tube heat exchangers
- Caissons and submerged pumps
- Cooling towers
- Separators and valves
- Subsea manifolds
- Emergency firewater systems
- Water injection systems and injection wells
- Any pipework or tanks exposed to raw seawater
