Solution Approach
RawSource supplies the base chemicals that go into these programs. We can help with product selection, grade matching, and sourcing from multiple origins for supply security.
Typical Treatment Workflow
1
System Assessment
Characterize operating conditions — fluid composition, temperature, pressure, flow, and H2S/CO2/water cut — and benchmark current treatment performance.
2
Chemistry Selection
Match scale and corrosion inhibitors, biocides, or demulsifiers to the operating envelope, factoring compatibility, regulatory constraints, and downstream impacts.
3
Field Trial & Dosing
Determine treat rates through bottle and field trials, and configure continuous or batch delivery and packaging (drums, totes, ISO tanks) to logistics.
4
Monitoring & Adjustment
Track corrosion coupon/ER rates, residual inhibitor, and separator and water-quality performance, adjusting chemistry and dose as wells change.

Silicone Fluids & Oils
Primary silicone antifoam active
PDMS spreads across the gas-liquid interface at very low surface tension and ruptures foam lamellae as they form

Specialty Additives
Hydrophobic filler
Hydrophobic silica particles dispersed in the silicone act as the antifoam's de-wetting filler, puncturing the lamella film
