In “Oilfield Operational Challenges Managed with Chemical Solutions” Fadi, a ConocoPhillips employee, will describe real world high-impact challenges associated with oilfield production that he has experienced in unconventional completions, such as early life scale/solids/sand erosion, corrosion and organic deposits. Becky will explore the various chemical solutions pros and cons that are available to address these challenges. The class will emphasize the importance of understanding system conditions and constraints to ensure analytical and product performance testing are conducted under system conditions, to best replicate system conditions as closely as possible. Challenges to be included are, but are not limited to, iron sulfide, mineral scale, sand production, corrosion, paraffin and asphaltenes.
