Optimize Oil & Gas operations with OLI
At OLI Systems, we specialize in tackling the complexities of the oil and gas industry. Our comprehensive consulting services and state-of-the-art software enable precise modeling of chemical processes, facilitating the design of efficient extraction and purification methods that mitigate issues like scaling and corrosion. Partner with us to optimize your operations, extend equipment lifespan, and meet stringent environmental regulations.
OVERVIEW
Address complex challenges driven by complex chemical characteristics and harsh process conditions
Lost production output and increased costs in upstream operations due to mineral scaling and corrosion damage are very common. Poor asset integrity, high operating costs and sub-optimal materials selection negatively impact downstream operations. The sheer complexity of the multi-component chemistry, harsh operating conditions and unique process requirements make these processes very demanding.
APPLICATIONS
Boost operations and asset performance and sustainability
The ability to characterize complex chemistry behavior under a wide range of operating conditions coupled with deep domain knowledge of applications unlocks actionable business value.
