At ISI Oilfield Chemicals, our commitment to progress is driven by innovation and continuous improvement. Therefore, during the AOG Patagonia Expo, we showcased our Friction Flow Loop, the second generation of this type of technology, entirely developed in-house with our own engineering and resources. It was manufactured under the highest quality standards.
Friction Flow Loop: A key technological advancement for the Oil & Gas Industry
In the oil and gas industry, precision and efficiency in fracturing and stimulation processes are crucial in maximizing well performance.
The Friction Flow Loop is an essential tool that allows us to assess the efficiency and dynamic behavior of friction reducers by measuring the pressure differential between two points within a closed-loop system.
This new equipment version incorporates several important upgrades, including the ability to adjust flow rates and automated features to optimize control. As a result, enhanced precision and flexibility in its operation are guaranteed.
Such equipment is crucial for the development and validation of our friction reducers, which play a vital role in unconventional fracturing operations in the Neuquén Basin, especially in Vaca Muerta.
We offer a range of friction reducers that address a variety of operational conditions so we ensure efficient solutions for any need in the sector. Some of our key products include:
- Emulsion friction reducer for low and high salinity.
- High-viscosity emulsion friction reducer (HVFR) for low and high salinity.
- High-viscosity friction reducer (slurry in mineral oil).
- Solid high-viscosity friction reducer.
The Friction Flow Loop is an indispensable tool for our R&D team, since it enables us to design and optimize HVFR fracture fluid systems to meet the demands of the market.
After being in the oil industry for 30 years, ISI Oilfield Chemicals remains committed to growth, continuous improvement, and delivering solutions that make a real difference in the industry.
