Product Information

MPI-800 is a combination of solvents and wax crystal modifiers specifically designed to decrease the pour point and inhibit paraffin wax deposition in highly paraffinic production systems. MPI-800 combines proven paraffin solvents utilizing an aromatic and aliphatic blend with a broad spectrum wax crystal modifier to allow the product to be highly effective over a wider range of carbon chain paraffins. The product can be applied downhole or on the surface, before the Wax Appearance Temperature (WAT) of the production stream.

Product Application

MPI-800 can be applied continuously downhole via capillary string or backside injection, continuously into surface flowlines or by inhibitor squeeze. The product must be applied above the Wax Appearance Temperature (WAT) to be effective at inhibition of paraffin formation. Typical treatment ranges vary depending on the severity of the paraffin, the system parameters, and the temperature of the fluid. The severity of the problem will dictate the dosage, but typical treatment rates will be 1-3 gallons per 500 barrels of produced oil.

Advantages

  • Effective in the prevention of paraffin deposition
  • Combines a pour point depressant and paraffin crystal modifier
  • Improves pumpability of a wide range of paraffinic crude oils, distillates, and residual fuel oils
