PAMAS Particle Counters for the Oil and Gas Industry

By PAMAS

The oil and gas industry imposes special demands on measurement technology. Here, particle counters for liquids are used in a wide variety of ways: - Purity of components: Particle counters are indispensable for ensuring the cleanliness of hydraulic components such as pumps, valves, accumulators, actuators and hoses, which are used in subsea oil and gas extraction. - Injection fluids: The purity of water and chemicals injected into boreholes is crucial for smooth operation and preventing damage/blockage to the boreholes. - Water-glycol fluids: Particle counters also play an important role in water-glycol-based hydraulic fluids and their storage and transport containers (totes/IBCs). Particle counters help identify a range of problems in the oil and gas industry: - Demanding fluids: PAMAS Particle counters are capable of measuring the purity of technically demanding fluids such as water-glycols, aggressive chemicals (scale/corrosion/wax inhibitors), and saltwater. - Avoidance of failures: Accurate measurement of particulate contamination can prevent component damage, asset failures and avoid environmental disasters. - Compliance with cleanliness specifications: Particle counters assist in meeting the purity requirements for subsea components and fluids stipulated by the API, end customers and drilling rig operators. Do PAMAS instruments meet the major industry standards? Yes, our devices meet common industry standards defined in the API: ISO 11171, SAE AS4059, NAS 1638, ISO 4406, and ISO 4407.
