Production of medium, heavy, and extraheavy crude oils may require significant investment in lift and transport processes for these highly viscous fluids at ambient temperatures.
Schlumberger has developed a range of chemicals that reduce the viscosity of oil for lifting, processing, and transport, thereby reducing operational costs and improving production performance.
Our specialists add value by assessing the entire production system, identifying bottlenecks, and developing customized solutions.
Flow improvers and viscosity reducers can decrease viscosity by up to 95%, depending on the causes of the increased viscosity, type of chemistry, and production system.
