If your work involves capturing a sample from a process, pipeline, or tank while maintaining the chemical composition during storage or transport for later analysis, we can help. A new …

Keeping SAGD process fluids at optimal conditions requires regular sampling and analysis. If the sample fluid is not representative of the process fluid, though, your grab sampling measurement won’t be …

Mechanical seal heat checking is characterized by the presence of radial cracks originating from the center of metallic, tungsten carbide, or ceramic seal faces. This may appear as scoring or …

Flow assurance fluid characterization is the concept of ensuring fluid flows effectively and efficiently from point A to point B. Originally, flow assurance was a term used to describe the …

Mechanical seal leakage is typically unavoidable as seals age and develop wear. Inadequate flushing and lubrication of mechanical seals can also lead to seal damage, resulting in leaks that may …

Seal support systems are essential for the operation of pumping and rotating equipment, as they are designed to support a specific seal and set of process conditions by supplying either …

When designing facility layouts for oil and gas operations and petrochemical refineries, it is critical to consider industrial fluid systems’ routing, especially in locations like Alberta, Canada. With careful planning …

Buffer and barrier seal support plans are required for dual seals to operate. Dual mechanical seals have become more prevalent in pumping equipment to maintain higher safety and reliability standards …

Flush plans aim to maintain proper lubrication, temperature, pressure, and solids management by circulating fluid to or from a seal. A suitable flush plan should create an optimal working environment …

Fast loop sampling systems are essential during custody transfer processes. Because of the high value and large volume of the crude oil that is typically transferred, it is imperative that …
