Two-in-One Pipeline Flow Assurance: Viscosity Reduction and Corrosion Inhibitor
Our preventative treatment is a pipeline and wellbore maintenance chemical designed to break apart and suspend paraffin wax and asphaltenes while simultaneously providing corrosion inhibition.
Pumped continuously to prevent future build-ups and corrosion, both onshore and offshore.
Biodegradable | BTEX-free | Low Toxicity
HOW IT WORKS
Reacts: LamFlo+CI® reacts with asphaltenes, breaking apart their matrix chains.
Modifies: LamFlo+CI® suspends longer hydrocarbon chains and modifies the asphaltene matrix, lowering the pour point of lower API gravity oils and reducing heavy oil viscosity.
Prevents: LamFlo+CI® will prevent future paraffin wax and asphaltene build-up and protect the wellbore, tubulars, surface equipment, flowlines, and pipeline from corrosion.
ADVANTAGES
Effective: LamFlo+CI® is aggressive on bitumen and other heavy oils containing high concentrations of asphaltenes. It lowers both the viscosity and pour point of low API gravity oils.
Flexible: LamFlo+CI® has an exceptional environmental profile and low toxicity, making it ideal for both onshore and offshore applications.
Non-hazardous and BTEX-free: LamFlo+CI® is biodegradable, BTEX-free, and non-hazardous when shipped.
2-in-1 Flow Assurance: LamFlo+CI® serves as both a viscosity reduction agent and corrosion inhibitor in one product.
Reduces Costs: LamFlo+CI® reduces shipping costs due to its low typical dosage range of 300-700ppm and its non-DOT-regulated classification.
Protects Against Corrosion: LamFlo+CI® follows the water stream so it continuously shields metal surfaces from corrosive elements.

CUSTOMER SUCCESS STORIES
-
This 4,000-foot stainless steel and Fiberspar flowline was experiencing elevated operating pressures between 700–750 psi. After Tellus installed a new meter in early June, Ideal Energy Solutions LLC began treating the line with LamFlo® at a continuous injection rate. Over the course of five months, the operating pressure dropped steadily to the low 500s, eliminating the need for hot oil treatments and cutting chemical treatment costs in half.
