Offshore Wastewater Treatment

In offshore oil and gas operations with crews on site, the need for an efficient and certified process for human waste and wastewater disposal is imperative. Enter OMNIPURE, a cutting-edge solution employing an electrolytic and electroflotation process that eradicates an impressive 99.9% of fecal coliform bacteria.

Distinguished by its innovative system design, OMNIPURE systems offer 'on-demand' treatment capabilities, ensuring real-time, in-situ oxidation and disinfection. This not only guarantees immediate response to wastewater treatment needs but also minimizes power usage during idle periods. The reverse polarity electrolysis cell is a game-changer, extending the time between routine cell cleaning, thereby saving valuable time and reducing maintenance costs. Elevate your offshore wastewater treatment with OMNIPURE —a pinnacle of efficiency, sanitation and cost-effectiveness.

Fire Protection Water Treatment

The circulation of untreated seawater throughout the fire protection systems of offshore drilling rigs and production facilities poses a significant risk, fostering the growth of various organisms that can ultimately obstruct vital pipelines. The reliability of the fire protection system is critical for each facility, necessitating a solution that ensures seamless functionality when it matters most.

De Nora's seawater electrochlorination (SWEC) systems, SANILEC and SEACLOR, stand as indispensable assets in fire protection system readiness. Operating on-site, these systems generate sodium hypochlorite, effectively preventing biofouling in the fire protection system and inhibiting the formation of mussels around the jockey pump. Notably, these solutions eradicate the need for transporting bulk chemicals to and from offshore locations, replacing outdated bulk dosing methods with a continuous, low-concentration dose of sodium hypochlorite. Elevate your fire protection water treatment with De Nora, ensuring compliance and the sustained efficiency and integrity of your critical systems.

Cooling Water Treatment for Offshore Oil and Gas

Enhance the effectiveness of cooling water treatment in the oil and gas industry with De Nora SANILEC and SEACLOR seawater electrochlorination systems. In the dynamic environment of cooling applications where seawater is the lifeline, the battle against biofouling and marine growth is relentless. De Nora's seawater electrochlorination systems step in seamlessly, efficiently receiving seawater at a fixed flowrate and producing a steady dose of sodium hypochlorite. This powerful solution is designed to be injected at any point within the vessel, ensuring enhanced efficiency, prolonged equipment life and reduced maintenance frequency. Elevate your cooling water treatment strategy with SANILEC, a game-changer in the oil and gas sector.

Cathodic Protection

Preserving the integrity of offshore structures such as platforms demands a diligent and continuous strategy to counteract corrosion caused by the harsh seawater environment. As these structures mature, the initial cathodic protection systems need refurbishment to prolong the overall lifespan of the facility by five to 20 years. This life extension potential underscores the importance of a proactive and tailored approach to cathodic protection management.

With more than 500,000 anodes installed, LIDA® anodes have been offering reliability and creating connections you can trust for nearly forty years. Developed in the 1980s as an innovative alternative to traditional cathodic protection anodes for corrosion prevention, De Nora LIDA anodes are the original mixed metal oxide (MMO) anodes.

The groundbreaking lightweight material design of LIDA MMO anodes dramatically simplifies the installation of cathodic protection for industrial steel structures everywhere – including offshore platforms.
