Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span> Clariant Oil Services, a world leader in supplying chemicals for oil field production, this month opened two units in Soyo (Zaire) and Viana (Luanda), bringing technical and operational capacity to the region.<\/p>\n

With a 20-year track record in supplying local customers, the company this January directly supplied the first chemical to offshore customers from its Soyo base, a milestone for Clariant’s deepwater operations in Africa.<\/p>\n

According to a publication by PetroAngola (oil and gas information provider) to which ANGOP had access today, the complex was built in an area of 3,400 square metres.<\/p>\n

The infrastructure includes a laboratory, offices and a warehouse covered with decanting and filtering equipment, and processing capacity is expected to reach 1,000 tonnes per month.<\/p>\n

The new facility at the Kwanda base, near Soyo, is next to the mouth of the Zaire River (Kwanza Island), a location designed to provide logistical support to oil and gas operations.<\/p>\n

To meet the quality control (QC) requirements for chemical supply, the laboratory is fully equipped with all conventional methodologies, plus state-of-the-art infrared spectroscopy.<\/p>\n

These resources will aid the efficient supply of chemicals for subsea applications and will also make it possible to meet all testing requirements.<\/p>\n

Also according to the publication, construction of the Soyo facility was preceded by a warehouse and laboratory complex in Viana, which was commissioned and designed to support the expansion of business in the oil and gas industry in Angola.<\/p>\n

Technical capabilities at the site include equipment to test demulsifiers, deoilers, oil and other oil-related products.<\/p>\n

For QC, the lab can evaluate appearance, pH, specific gravity, viscosity, FT-IR fingerprinting, particle counts and non-volatile residues, among other analyses.<\/p>\n
