Upstream Chemistry
UPSTREAM OIL AND GAS SOLUTIONS
Driving Performance, Sustainability, and Profitability in Every Well.
The upstream oil and gas sector demands innovation, efficiency, and environmental responsibility. SciDev delivers cutting-edge chemical solutions engineered to optimise well performance from drilling to production, maximising ROI and minimising environmental impact.
Optimising Upstream Oil & Gas Operations with World-Leading Chemistry
We partner with operators to conquer the complexities of the modern well, offering tailored chemistries that enhance productivity, reduce costs, reuse water and ensure sustainable operations.
Our comprehensive suite of advanced chemical technologies are engineered to optimise every stage of the upstream lifecycle, from initial drilling to sustained production, with a core focus on water management and environmental stewardship.
We offer advanced chemistry, including specialized chemical solutions designed to perform effectively in challenging environments like produced water and high iron reserviours, alongside equipment and professional services. Our comprehensive approach aids drillers, operators, producers, and service companies in efficiently recycling and reusing oilfield water.
The Upstream Challenge: A Data-Driven Perspective
The scale of water management in oil and gas operations is immense, presenting both challenges and opportunities for innovation. Globally, it’s estimated that for every barrel of oil, an average of 5 barrels of water are produced. In the U.S. alone, oil and gas operations generate over 20 billion barrels (approximately 840 billion gallons) of produced water annually. Effectively managing, treating and reusing this vast quantity of produced water requires robust chemical solutions, like those developed by SciDev, ensuring it can be safely handled, recycled, or disposed of.
