Biocides

Liquid products which kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria which can exist in oil production systems. Sulphate Reducing Bacteria can grow at water-oil interfaces and can form layers on surfaces of production equipment and tanks as well as accelerate corrosion by producing hydrogen sulphide as a by-product of their metabolism.

Our Product Range

CRIKEM THPS CS1

CRIKEM THPS CS1 is a microbiocide aqueous solution based on THPS (Tetrakis (hydroxymethyl) phosphonium sulfate). This product is suitable for treatment of oil, gas and water systems, and acts as a bactericide and fungicide particularly effective against sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) and general aerobic bacteria. It is used as an anti-foulant in the oil and gas industry, produced water systems, oil recovery systems and for controlling microbial growth in industrial freshwater systems, in paper manufacture, coatings and emulsions. This microbiocide is used in both commercial and industrial systems.

CRIKEM GLUT CS2

CRIKEM GLUT CS2 is a microbiocide aqueous solution based on Glutaraldehyde. It is a clear liquid with effectiveness in removing and avoiding oil and gas production water bacteria.

CRIKEM AMBIO 2229

Water soluble proprietary formulation biocide used for wide spectrum microbiological treatment. It’s application can be batched or continuous depending on the operational requirements.

CRIKEM B1

CRIKEM B1 is a very strong disinfectant based on sodium hypochlorite. CRIKEM B1 is commonly used as an industrial biocide, cleaning product and whitening aid.

Other products

Scavengers
Products added to mixtures to avoid unwanted reactions or to remove harmful components.
Demulsifiers
Liquid products used to help break oil and water emulsions, to reduce water and salts content of processed oil to meet export specifications.
Corrosion Inhibitors
Liquid products which reduce the rate of corrosive attack on metallic oil production equipment and systems, by forming a thin protective coating on exposed metal surfaces.
Antifoams/Defoamers; Water Clarifiers & Coagulants
Foaming causes many problems in industrial processes, for example, problems with filling of containers, giving false readings from sensors or decreasing product quality, just to name a few. We have suitable products for breaking existing foams, or preventing foams from occurring in oil based systems, as well as water based systems.
Scale Inhibitors
Aqueous based liquid products which inhibit the deposition of hard inorganic scales or unconsolidated scale sludge’s in oil production system and pipelines.
Flow Improvers and Viscosity reducers
A family of chemical additives that improves pumping operations in challenging conditions.
Completion and Workover fluids
Crikem products used during completion of a well, or a workover operation.
