Hydrocarbon engineering systems have experienced a number of rapid technological advances in recent years but none have been quite as revolutionary as chemical dosing skid systems. This is particularly true in the Middle East, the very nucleus of the hydrocarbon industry!
Chemical dosing skids are custom designed injection units delivering chemicals into oil and gas pipes. This is a targeted process that can be applied to a plethora of applications with huge advantages, not least of which is a boost in production processes. Known applications are the controlling of hydration in oil and gas pipelines and in the treatment of waste water by injecting treatment chemicals directly into boilers without losing the effect of water under pressure.
Abbreviated to CDSS, these skids are the industrial equivalent of a company’s bespoke distribution technique whereby liquid chemicals are dispensed from a portable supply source such as a tank or a drum, through an injector to the desired location. The injector is a small-dose individually fabricated pump which can be regulated to dispense chemicals at a specified rate.
Future Trends
As closely linked as it is to the new demands of the hydrocarbon industry, the market for chemical dosing skids is definitely on the increase and insiders predict that by 2019 it will reach somewhere around the $5.3 billion mark, particularly in the Middle East and Africa where economic diversification is a major priority due to a reduced dependence on oil and the need for expansion in manufacturing industries.
