Cooling Water Treatment in the Oil Industry

Managing cooling water quality in oil industry facilities to prevent scaling and corrosion.

Cooling water systems in oil and gas facilities face challenges from scaling, corrosion, and biological growth. These systems are critical for process operations, and their reliability directly impacts plant availability.

An oil processing facility was experiencing recurring cooling water problems including scale buildup in heat exchangers and microbiological growth in cooling towers. Chemical treatment programs were extensive and expensive.

Merus technology was applied to the cooling water make-up and circulation systems. The treatment reduced scale formation and biological growth, allowing for simplified chemical treatment programs while maintaining system performance and reliability.
