AMA® biocides for oilfield operations
Our AMA biocides are specifically designed to kill or inhibit the growth of a number of troublesome bacteria typically found in oilfield applications.
Aluminum Chloride
Kemira Aluminum Chlorides (KEMIRA ACL) are effective primary coagulants on an aluminum base. The products are used in a variety of municipal and industrial applications, primarily for color, organic matter, suspended solids and phosphorus removal.
Anionic and Nonionic Polyacrylamides
Kemira’s nonionic and anionic polyacrylamides have excellent performance in various industrial liquid/solid separation processes. Our quality of manufacture can be assured to be of the highest standard available today.
Bulking sludge and foam control
The formation of bulking sludge and foam in a biological process is mainly due to excessive presence of filamentous bacteria. Kemira FilamentEx® has been developed to address theseproblems and bring stability back to the wastewater process.
Cationic Polyacrylamides
Kemira’s cationic polyacrylamides have excellent performance in municipal sludge dewatering applications. Our quality of manufacture can be assured to be of the highest standard, with many decades of process know-how being applied to our products.
Dry ferric sulfate
Kemira Ferric Sulfates (KEMIRA PIX) are effective primary coagulants based on trivalent iron (Fe3+), excellent for drinking water production, wastewater treatment, phosphorus removal applications, struvite control as well as sludge conditioning.
Ferric chloride sulfate
Kemira Ferric Chloride Sulfates (KEMIRA PIX) are effective primary coagulants based on trivalent iron (Fe3+), excellent for drinking water production, wastewater treatment applications such as phosphorus removal, struvite control and sludge conditioning.
KemFlow® friction reducers
Kemira KemFlow polymers reduce pipe friction during hydraulic fracturing in order to lower energy demand and carry proppant to keep fractures open to improve well production.
KemFoamX defoamers
Kemira is a leader in foam control technology. We offer a complete line of environmentally responsible and process–friendly defoamers that are highly functional in various oilfield applications.
KemGuard® corrosion inhibitors
KemGuard CI corrosion inhibitors are ideal for the corrosive heavy brines used to control formation pressure during well completion where the dissimilar metals are especially prone to galvanic action.
KemGuard® scale inhibitors for oilfield operations
Kemira’s broad portfolio of KemGuard scale inhibitors control the deposition of scales across a wide range of operating environments, lowering the risk to production and extending the life of the field.
KemHydra™ polymer hydration & injection equipment
Engineered for optimal polyacrylamide hydration and injection, our KemHydra equipment are designed for both onshore and offshore cEOR operations as well as oil sands tailing treatment.
KemSep® flocculants & coagulants for oilfield operations
Our wide selection of flocculants and coagulants help you maximize water quality for discharge or reuse and to meet the environmental requirements of the process and lower the total cost of operations.
KemSweep™ for polymer flooding
As part of Kemira MaxXtract cEOR solutions, we offer KemSweep polymers, which are tailored for a wide range of field conditions, including high-temperature reservoirs and high-salinity brines.
MaxXtract™ cEOR Solutions
Kemira MaxXtract cEOR solutions are designed to extract more production and extend the field life of mature hydrocarbon resources. Our MaxXtract solutions are defined by our PERFORMA, EXTEND and PRIME offerings.
Oilfield services
To complement our full range of polymers and equipment, and to ensure optimal performance, we offer oilfield services as part of our tailored solutions for cEOR and oil sands operations.
Polyaluminium sulfate
Kemira Polyaluminum Sulfate (KEMIRA PAS, PASS) is a basic, polymerized aluminum sulfate. It contains highlycharged aluminum and will offer advantages such as rapid floc formation, excellent particle removal and improved cold water performance.
