Nitrogen Use in Oil and Gas Applications
The use of Nitrogen gas is ideal in oil applications such as oil and gas platforms, enhanced oil recovery, refineries, oil and gas extractions, and fracking.
It effectively slows or prevents sprinkler pipe corrosion, product deterioration and contamination, and most importantly, eliminates the risk of explosions and fire.
Nitrogen Use in Oil Applications
In the oil industry, Nitrogen is commonly used in high volumes and at higher pressures, at a minimum of 95% purity, for pipeline pigging to keep the lines clear, and for well injection to push product to the wellhead for extraction. Low pressure applications include purging of pipelines to maintain an inert atmosphere during maintenance, purging of controls, flare gas inerting, and most commonly, blanketing gas or storage tanks.
Cost Comparison
Making the switch to Nitrogen generation removes the middleman (gas supplier) and increases factory self-sustainability. No more long-term contracts or gas delivery hassles. N2GEN systems provide meaningful cost-savings and quick ROI with a long 18-24 year system life (dependent on maintenance).
