Interfering elements like Si, Ca, Cl, Fe and water are commonly present in crude oil and will settle to the bottom of a sample over time. To prevent biased results, many laboratories centrifuge all crude oil samples prior to analysis. Discover a new solution to eliminate the need to centrifuge.

Real-time data delivery can tell you how your plant or asset is dealing with corrosion or erosion demands. Find out how to wirelessly monitor for metal loss from corrosion or erosion in piping, vessels and pipelines and take control long before hydrocarbon containment loss occurs.

Composite repair products used in oil and gas pipeline rehabilitation and restoration applications have been available for close to 30 years. In that time, a wealth of misconceptions has evolved regarding these products, their principles and their performance. To help set the record straight, we’ll look at five common composite repair misconceptions, where they originated, the reality of those misconceptions and why it is vitally important to understand the engineering behind these solutions as well as their capabilities and effectiveness in each unique repair.

Descubra cómo predecir las averías de los equipos, reducir la carga de trabajo de mantenimiento hasta en un 60% y ahorrar $ millones en costos utilizando un nuevo enfoque para la gestión del rendimiento de los activos. Lea las historias de nueve compañías que han mejorado la confiabilidad de los activos, incluida una importante compañía de petróleo y gas que expuso la causa de una falla del compresor que plagó a su refinería durante más de una década –  solo tres días después de implementar su solución de análisis prescriptivo.

As fuels demand declines, refineries are looking for unique ways to remain competitive. Diversifying into petrochemicals, leveraging low-cost energy and feedstock will maximize value. Explore how a high-value integration strategy can create additional value in this thought-provoking white paper from Honeywell UOP Principal Engineer and FCC Subject Matter Expert, Matt Griffiths

Many different types and grades of petroleum products travel through pipelines in batches. Some mixing occurs at the interface between batches which results in transmix generation and product downgrading. By integrating a real-time online analyzer, you can optimize product cut-points even when specific gravity is the same.

The global energy industry has seen how the shale boom turned the US into a leading gas producer and exporter. Much of the recent development in the Americas' natural gas/LNG sector has been concentrated in the US Gulf Coast region, which is a key energy hub for much of the world. But what about Mexico?
