During July, we were delighted to welcome Petroleum Engineering students from UBA University, members of the SPE UBA Student Chapter, to our facilities.
The visit was designed to provide future industry professionals with first-hand exposure to the realities of the oil and gas sector. The most significant aim was to give an insight to the manufacturing and application processes of specialty chemicals for upstream operations:
- Cementing
- Stimulation
- Drilling muds
- Production chemicals
As part of the visit, the students attended a technical presentation on cementing additives and cementing operations. The session covered the different cementing applications encountered throughout the well productive life; basic cementing calculations; the equipment used in field operations as well as laboratory testing performed in accordance with API 10B standards, among other technical topics.
We would like to express our gratitude to Dr. Silvia Barredo, who organized and coordinated the visit on behalf of the University.
Laboratories and Chemical Manufacturing Plant: The Pillars of What We Do
As part of the experience, the students toured the facilities where ISI develops and manufactures chemical solutions for the oil and gas industry. The visit provided them with first-hand insight into the infrastructure, manufacturing processes, and technical capabilities that support our operations.
At ISI Oilfield Chemicals, the value of every product begins in our R&D department, where we continuously develop new technologies and remain at the forefront of chemical innovation for the global oilfield industry.
Our specialized laboratories and a chemical manufacturing plant equipped with high-pressure, high-temperature reactors supports all the company efforts and projects. Besides, such equipment enables us to scale innovative chemical solutions for industrial production.
