Why FlowPeak
Conventional methods treat symptoms. FlowPeak treats the chemical root cause. Compare the operational realities of legacy interventions against molecular chemistry.
| Conventional Method | Core Limitation | FlowPeak's Advantage |
|---|---|---|
| Hot oiling | Treats tubing but can cause formation damage; temporary; high energy cost; doesn't address asphaltenes/resins. | Addresses paraffin, asphaltenes, and resins in one treatment, in situ, without heat, no secondary formation damage. |
| Acid stimulation | Creates wettability changes and new deposition risk; hazardous handling; severe corrosion risk. | No corrosive chemistry; carbon-based molecular treatment safe for operators, assets, and the environment. |
| Mechanical pigging | Removes deposits but doesn't prevent redeposition; requires downtime/equipment; not viable in all configurations. | Treats the chemical root cause of deposition, reducing redeposition rate and drastically extending cleaning frequency. |
| Conventional solvents | Effective on paraffin but limited on asphaltenes; can create severe emulsions; significant environmental liability. | Addresses paraffin, asphaltenes, emulsions, and resins with a single chemistry platform, environmentally safe. |
| Excavation remediation | Astronomical cost, high operational disruption, incomplete coverage at scale. | In-situ soil remediation without excavation, effective at scale, with minimal surface disruption. |
