Injecting DRA
Working with DRA
Polymeric slurry DRA is a unique chemical that takes expertise to properly store and successfully inject into your pipeline. Our main goal at PLUS is simple: to inject DRA. However, achieving this goal is part science, part art.
Our containerized models feature PLUS's patented DRA leak-detection & recovery system, which help prevent environmental release with the ability to save & re-use lost chemical
Slurry DRA is a non-Newtonian fluid, meaning it is an unstable suspension of DRA polymer, surfactants, stabilizing compounds & a non-solvent
Common examples of non-solvents include soy oil, alcohol, water, latex-based, and more
Our specialized chemical handling & storage system ensures you're always able to pump DRA whenever you need it and at what dosage
Unbundled Approach to DRA
The “unbundled approach to DRA” refers to a business strategy by which our customers procure their injection equipment independent from the chemical supplier. It takes the slurry DRA from a traditionally high margin specialty chemical to a more reasonable commodity by eliminating the restrictive uses on your injection equipment. You control the use of the equipment — they don’t.
