Drag Reducing Agents (DRA)

Innospec DRAs improve pipeline productivity while cutting costs

In 2018, Innospec Oilfield Services (IOS) announced its entry into the oilfield DRA (drag reducing agents) manufacturing arena.

Today, Innospec’s industry leading DRAs are proven to solve the complex challenges that other drag reducers fail to effectively and efficiently address. Suitable for both crude and refined oil applications, IOS DRAs de-bottleneck pipeline systems without expensive equipment upgrades. They also reduce energy consumption by minimizing drag within the pipeline, lower operating pressures without sacrificing pipeline capacity, and prevent additional costs by eliminating both intermediate pump stations and new pipelines from system designs.

In addition, Innospec’s TORRENT® IDR solutions can reduce the need for intermediate pump stations and de-bottleneck pipeline systems without expensive equipment upgrades. This results in lower operating costs without sacrificing pipeline throughput.
