Customer Success Stories
Inlet Integrity Programme Protects Assets and Delivers Value
A gas processing plant focused on inlet separator treatment to reduce a daily hot valve problem and save nearly $310K.
Amine Corrosion Control Programme Reduces Operating Costs
An innovative solution for the amine unit helped a gas processing plant save over $170K per year.
PURATE™ Chlorine Dioxide Technology Delivers Significant Savings
A Gulf Coast natural gas liquid (NGL) plant implemented a biocide programme for the cooling water system to avoid $2 million in production losses and operating costs.
Amine Treatment Programme Delivers Impactful Results
A comprehensive amine service plan and operational changes delivered over $50K in annual savings for a gas processing plant.
Outcome-based solutions for Midstream plants
Nalco Water integrates water, process and digital solutions to help achieve operational and sustainability goals.
Compressor Systems
Nalco Water Compressor Antifoulant mitigates plugging and reduces filter changeouts to help improve reliability and lower operational costs.
Auxiliary Water Systems
Extend Reverse Osmosis membrane life to help increase cooling system and boiler reliability and optimise treatment costs. Our 3D TRASAR™ Technology ensures systems run efficiently, providing assurance that a system is protected 24/7.
H2S Removal
Mitigate shut-in conditions to help increase uptime and safety. Sulfa- Check scavengers to rapidly and efficiently reduce H2S levels to gas specifications.
Inlet Separator Treatment
Protect critical assets and help decrease maintenance cost and downtime. The Inlet Integrity Programme focuses on the incoming gas stream to clean assets, prevent deposits and provide corrosion inhibition.
Managing Assets
Prevent extended periods of upset conditions, prolong run time and predict exchanger life. OMNI™ Heat Exchanger Intelligence, powered by ECOLAB3D™ is a holistic, 24/7 asset monitoring programme that provides historical, real-time, and predictive analytics and diagnostics for a comprehensive view of water systems and asset health.

Education and Resources
Maximise Performance in the Amine Unit
The Amine Unit is the heart of a gas plant and when it’s not running efficiently, a plant’s availability and performance can suffer. To learn more about approaches that can improve efficiency, join hosts Nalco Water and BASF as they discuss best practices for increased plant performance.
Corrosion Control for Gas-treating Amines: Technology Leads to Increased Amine Unit Efficiency
Accelerated basin drilling activities combined with increased fugitive gas emission capture technologies have increased trace oxygen levels in midstream natural gas—oxygen that will cause costly corrosion-related problems in plant operations and processing equipment. The plant area most affected by oxygen is the amine unit.
