Upstream Applications

Oil and Gas Wells, Flow Lines, and Gathering Stations

Drilling Operations

Upstream production starts at the well itself. Whether onshore drilling rigs or offshore platforms in depths exceeding 3,500 meters, our technology addresses challenges at the point of extraction.

Drilling Operations

Modern drilling includes both vertical and horizontal methods, particularly for operations requiring horizontal wells. Our solutions adapt to all well configurations.

Production Methods

From natural flow to Pump Jacks and Electric Submersible Pumps producing over 500 barrels daily, Merus technology maintains efficiency regardless of extraction method.

Flow Lines

Flow lines transport oil and gas from wellheads to storage facilities, typically spanning under 3 miles. We treat these against waxing, corrosion, scaling, and fouling.

Flow lines and pipelines

Problems We Solve

01

Corrosion Control

Reducing corrosion rates in wells, flow lines, and gathering systems. Protecting steel infrastructure from both CO2 and H2S driven corrosion mechanisms.

02

Scale Prevention

Preventing calcium carbonate, barium sulfate, and other mineral scale deposits that restrict flow and damage equipment.

03

Wax Management

Controlling paraffin wax deposition in wellbores and flow lines. Reducing hot oil treatment frequency and improving flow assurance.

04

SRB Reduction

Mitigating Sulfur Reducing Bacteria that cause microbiologically induced corrosion and souring in production systems.
